Interestingly, the “10 Things About

Interestingly, the “10 Things About Me” thingy has done a big internet-y circle (or something), and arrived in the ‘Buffy blogging’ community. So what the hell, I didn’t do it last time… so here’s my effort now.

Interestingly, the “10 Things About Me” thingy has done a big internet-y circle (or something), and arrived in the ‘Buffy blogging’ community. So what the hell, I didn’t do it last time… so here’s my effort now. Nine of these are true – where’s the red herring? :

#1 My hair used to be long enough to sit on.
#2 I own twelve musical instruments, and can play them all with varying degrees of competency; however none of them is my primary instrument.
#3 My first serious boyfriend is now dead, and I’m not sorry.
#4 I’m allergic to nuts, dogs, and Daz washing powder.
#5 When I was five, I was kinda abducted by a paedophile. Which was way more traumatic for my parents that it was for me.
#6 Some of my first cousins are older than my mother.
#7 I went out / had a relationship with one of my senior (high) school teachers.
#8 My parents brought me (and my brother) up on a steady diet of science fiction. I’ve been a Trekkie since I was three years old.
#9 I have a blind spot on my left side which has resulted in me needing two sets of stitches in the head Not to mention causing innumerable bruises.
#10 I once asked Chris Tarrent who he was, and he refused to tell me.

Go on then. Which one of those isn’t true? Answers on a comments pop-up to…..

Happy Fluffy News. Awwwwwww. Ain’t that nice?

Which historical world leader am I? (via Jess)
# 1 Charlemagne
# 2 King David
# 3 Mohandas Gandhi
# 4 Moses
# 5 Joseph Smith
# 6 Julius Caesar
# 7 Otto von Bismarck
# 8 George Washington
# 9 King Henry VIII Tudor
# 10 Winston Churchill
Which is alright by me. I always liked Charlemagne, though I didn’t study him in as much depth as, say, the fascinating Catherine d’Medici. [Side note – the mother recently returned an entire suitcase full of my Renaissance History gumph to me. Shall have to go through it again sometime] Anyway, what else did I get…. Jesus was #14, William the Conqueror #18 (1066 R Us!), and then Adolf Hitler at #21 followed by Napoleon Bonaparte, Genghis Khan, Josef Stalin, and Mao Tse-Tung. Heh.

Oh god, what I am doing?! I have to go to bed. I’m so tired and I’ve got work in the morning. Fricking caffeinated painkillers….. I’m sure it’s all their fault.

*sigh* It had to happen

*sigh* It had to happen one of these days. I turned up for work at 7:45am (after having been off sick for a week) to discover that I’m actually on the 10am-8pm shift this week. Crap. Could’ve had two lovely more hours in bed! I live too far away to go home again, so I’ve stayed and I spose at least I’ll get home in time for Andromeda. Yay.

I made one of the cliques yesterday. It’s now open and ready for joining. It’s called We Want Him Dark and it’s for those of us who love evil Angelus and the darker side of souled Angel. Joiny joiny joiny!

I have vast amounts of catching up to do on my links list. I didn’t do much journal reading when I was ill… didn’t do much at all, actually, other than lay / sit around and go “guuurgh”. Oh well.

Went and got tickets for going down to Hastings at the weekend. Now I just have to ask the neighbours if they can look after the cats… if not, shall have to call B’s brother. I renewed my Young Persons Railcard for the last time, too, with 9 days to spare for the age limit. But there was a 15-month offer thing on it, so I’ll actually be using it until well after my 27th birthday. Heheheh. Scary thing, the picture I have on it was taken when I was at uni, and I have my natural blonde hair. I can’t decide if it really looks like me or not.

Hmm. Swift thinking / jumping

Hmm. Swift thinking / jumping / whatever. I nearly got blown off Beachy Head once. That was an interesting weekend. The neighbours seem to be attempting to power-drill their way in here. They could just come and knock on the front door if they’re that desperate to see our living room. Good job I’m not … Continue reading “Hmm. Swift thinking / jumping”

Hmm. Swift thinking / jumping / whatever. I nearly got blown off Beachy Head once. That was an interesting weekend.

The neighbours seem to be attempting to power-drill their way in here. They could just come and knock on the front door if they’re that desperate to see our living room. Good job I’m not still trying to sleep, really. Russ and Char (and their ‘pod‘) left half an hour ago or so…. they came up on Friday to stay for a few days. It was fun. Wish they lived nearer. That’d be good. B has gone off to France with his parents for a week, and Megs and Heather are in Blackpool for the UCSL meet. And do I know anyone who doesn’t have a website?!

My stupid cold-thing still hasn’t gone. I’m just feeling ugg-y now, but I’m not getting any better! Very annoying. Oh well, time to go prevent myself from making the two cliques and one fansite that are nagging at me. Or maybe I’ll make ’em anyway. Shouldn’t take up much webspace…… but which domain to use?

Have been suffering from that

Have been suffering from that heavy cold that seems to be going around. Still am, but not so badly today. Ugh. So I haven’t done a lot recently that’s very constructive. Except I think I may have to make an Andromeda related site…. hmmmm. But anyway, since I have nothing to say, here’s a write … Continue reading “Have been suffering from that”

Have been suffering from that heavy cold that seems to be going around. Still am, but not so badly today. Ugh. So I haven’t done a lot recently that’s very constructive. Except I think I may have to make an Andromeda related site…. hmmmm. But anyway, since I have nothing to say, here’s a write up / review thingy about Buffy. Lalalalalalalala. Roll on January.

Did some of those test things, too. Apparently, I’m 65% Goth, 50% Alternative, and 20% Trendy. Umm…. how is it that I’m 135% in total. Have I put on that much weight?….. *g* (Actually, I’m losing weight…. go me).

And if I was a transmorgifying witch person (is that the right word? My brain isn’t really working at the mo), the animals I’d be most likely to turn into are:
# 1 cat
# 2 dog
# 3 bat
# 4 goat/sheep
# 5 snake
# 6 ferret/weasel
# 7 owl
# 8 wolf
# 9 dolphin
# 10 cow/bull

I’m picking these things up from Gilly-chan’s blog, btw. And Gilly, I’d use the comment doofrey. I looooove to comment pointlessly. S’fun.
