Mrh. My ballchain bracelet from hel at the Jamboree last year just broke for the final time (it's only been a single loop for about the last two months after it split into two large and very uneven segments a while back), and it's now too short to go around my wrist even once. MEH. Apparently even metal things on my wrists get the crap beaten out ( Read more... )

Okay, so I am struggling ridiculously with my flashfic right now, in that I have wonderful prompts (seriously, I cannot emphasise how excellent they are; there are a million ideas there and waiting which is great) but my due South voice is just. not. there. I've started a bunch and I keep giving up in disgust two lines in. Argh. We still have like ( Read more... )

1. Chris? Did you ever get the postcard I sent from Hawaii? ...I just looked in my address book and, um, wow, did I ever remember your address wrong. Like, way wronger than usual ( Read more... )

Right. I worked all day and my car went from GREEN \o/ right back to BROWN /o\ in the space of nine hours because it was so dry/dusty/windy and well, I really don't have much of anything to say/contribute to the world. So I'm going to explain about the shoelaces and spam you with some other random pics.

( Picspam (13 x photos, 3x icons)! Shoelaces! Kitties! Hawaii! MINOR spoiler (of gesture!) for SGA 3x15 The Game! )

Barb: I can't believe you made it in two honks!

In other news, I am feeling extraordinarily pink right now. Possibly over-pinked. I had a pink grapefruit fizzy thing for breakfast/lunch, with boysenberry-based ambrosia (ie pink), which included marshmallows (also pink) and chocolate chips (chocolate. but still, they were chocolate in a ( Read more... )

Okay, so, I'm nearly caught up with LJ for today, at least, except I'm at the point where I have five tabs left, just FIVE and yet I can't bring myself to read them/comment/close them. I just-- argh. This is why I am forever behind. And I am tired and frustrated because I still can't talk and, honestly, there are few things in this world which can ( Read more... )

Not reading or replying to anything yet because I just got home and dinner is, well, ready but- Chris? Mission accomplished. :) Want to come over Saturday night and do the usual routine? Also, I would like to take a moment of "I rule" not just for finding the book for Chris, but for the fact I can go into a library I haven't set foot in for at ( Read more... )

Public Service AnnouncementOkay, so I'm sure 99% of you know this already, but for the 1% who may not? All that 'database unavailable' error crap that LJ seems to be tossing around again at the moment? You can avoid losing comments and suchlike by just hitting refresh when it gives you the error screen, and saying "okay" to repost data. That's ( Read more... )

Making this quick - I finally got a weak wireless signal that Miles can pick up - but I have to sort of perch on the balcony (I know, my life IS pain and suffering *snerk*) and he has effectively about 20mins of battery life when not hooked up to the mains, so. Today was brilliant, we have returned to Oahu from the Big Island, we walked on a ( Read more... )

Hi all! Am alive, am in Honolulu, am in freaking stone's throw distance of Waikiki Beach (mad props to spicedrum for her accomodation findings), am kinda tired and all still, am sitting around in togs and shorts because it's twenty-plus degrees at 9pm, am... bragging. :D Um, yes. Vacation going swimmingly so far, in that I made myself sleep for a while ( Read more... )
