Ramblings
I'm quite tired today, because I have a houseguest who insisted I stay up and drink wine with her last night.
Okay, so maybe that's not quite how it went down. Maybe it was me waving the bottle around and asking "more wine?" as I poured. I also ate way too many chips. We had grapes, I could have been healthy and eaten grapes, but no, I had to go for the salt and the fat.
Anyway, there is a point to this post. Puddlejumpers. They have bathrooms, right? If I was an ancient, and designing a nice little ship that could go through the gate, I'd put a bathroom in it. I'd also put a hot tub in it, but I guess that's just me. But I think there would be bathrooms. I ask because I've succumbed to the lure of the "John and Rodney stranded off-world" fic. I've never met a cliche I could resist. *g* (But oh, the romantic possibilities!)
At the rate I'm writing it, it should be finished in eight years or so.
On a totally unrelated note, am I the only person who absolutely loves the self-checkout lines in the grocery store? Where you scan your own items and push buttons and key in produce codes? I think it's the coolest idea ever. I feel like a little kid playing "store". It's so much fun. Maybe I'll stop again at the store on the way home today. I'm sure there's something else we need. More wine, for instance.
And look, nel_ani made me a cutie Rodney icon! ::loves:: He's so damn cute.
