Finishing up clearing out email now that I'm home:

Canon and Sheep Shit: Why We Fight.
I hate the Doctor Who canon like Dawkins hates God.

Like him, I'm convinced the target of my animus doesn't exist, but that doesn't stop me spending half my life writing about how dreadful it is. (from marnanel)

Yup, more. (also, as a note, after this I will be following only my nearest and dearest for the next five days at least, and probably longer -- I'll really only have access via b'berry until Sunday night, though)

I need a specific icon for these posts. I should ponder that.

Anyway, trying to wade through my inbox, and I've got entirely too much tagged as "to read/post", so here it comes:

I wish my glasses weren't so damned expensive; my last ( Read more... )

I'm pretty exhausted; it was a crazy, stressful weekend all 'round, and I ended up with a migraine all day yesterday. At least we can use our water again (although Bec and Jer still have a massive hole in their ceiling from the removal of the swiss-cheesed pipe that had to be replaced). I've been all sorts of productive, though, and have even ( Read more... )

And a brief life update -- nothing much has happened in the past two days; I've been down with a migraine, and accomplished exactly nothing. Also, I'm worried about Morph. He's acting weird and lethargic. A vet visit may be in the near future.

And now for the links:
