queenbarwenchI've had a week of hormones followed by a week of weather-induced headaches (stupid humidity) so I have been in Lurk mode. So, some stuff...
The five questions meme:lilithilien asked me:
1) What part of the house reno are you most looking forward using, once the whole thing is done? I'm already loving the new bathroom so much! Everything is bright and shiny and *not* avocado. I think the best bit will be the last room we decorate - the dining room. I'll be able to invite people round to dinner, which will be very cool.
2) You're the Doctor's newest companion--well, sort of, it's more of a one trip type of deal, you know, to see how you do with all the timey wimey stuff. Once he gets through all his qualifying explanations, where do you ask to go? Oooh, too many choices! I think I'd like a close-up view of the rings of Saturn, and then I'd like to go and meet a spacefaring alien race. Preferably without causing them too much trouble, which is usually what happens when the Doctor turns up.
3) What's the most expensive item of clothing you own? Not sure actually... I don't spend a whole lot on clothes. Probably my leather jacket. It gets worn for at least 6 months of each year, so it was a worthwhile investment.
4) Morning person or night owl? Night owl. Mornings are Teh Evil and they are Not My Friend. Coffee is my friend, though.
5) Give me your #2 reason to visit Newcastle next time I'm in the U.K. (because #1 is to see you, of course). Aww, sweetie! *squishes* Let's see... the bridges, I think. There are 6 bridges across the river Tyne. Two of them are boring concrete things but the other four deserve attention. In particular, the Tyne Bridge and the Gateshead Millennium Bridge. The Quayside is also pretty cool these days, especially on a hot summer evening.
Comment below if you'd like me to ask you five questions.
Now some other stuff:
Murray vs. Roddick = Epic Battle! I am on the edge of my seat. Literally!
Can anyone point me towards some good Star Trek: Reboot icons? I've apparently missed the posts of the really good ones.
Things to share:
Alice and Kev: The story of a homeless family in The Sims 3. It's... compelling.
A Right to Marry? Same-sex Marriage and Constitutional Law Can't recall who I picked this link up from, but it's an interesting dissection of the arguments. Not as funny as that Reasons gay marriage is wrong email, but it comes to the same conclusions.
I need to do some account maintenance re my icons and friends filters. There's some things I think I'd like to talk about, but I need to know who I'm talking to first.
