Hmm....

It's strange where inspiration comes from. We watched the end of Series 2 of The West Wing last night and it was SO sad! I was a bit sniffly during the actual last episode but when I went to bed afterwards the waterworks just started flooding and I couldn't stop. I just kept playing the scene where the president sees Mrs Landingham after she's died over and over in my head. I must have laid in bed crying for about 15 mins. Then all of a sudden I started thinking how I could channel these feelings of pain into something more creative so I started thinking about my Sparrington fic and I now know more or less what I'm going to do. I know why James is going to be suicidal (although I have the details to work out), I know how the scene is going to play out and I know what's going to happen afterwards.

As soon as I'd worked it all out the tears stopped and I fell asleep almost immediately.

My head is a strange place

OOH!

I only just found out that thefridayfive was now an LJ community. Here's todays answers from me

1. What was the last dream that you had about?
Last night I dreamt Jacqui and I were playing with all my old Barbie dolls and pretending they were characters from Buffy. Then I was cleaning the kitchen floor

2. Does it hold any significant meaning to you?
Well, I DO need to clean the kitchen floor

3. Do you dream in color or black and white?
Colour

4. What is the most frightening dream you ever had?
About 6 months after 9/11 I dreamt I was in one of the twin towers. I looked out of my window and I could see the other building collapsing

5. Is there one dream that stays clear in your mind despite the fact it was more than a few years ago?
When I was 12 or 13 I dreamed that animals ruled the world and hunted us the way we had hunted them

My trip to the cinema

Saw a trailer for The Grudge. Wow, looks like Sarah is actually doing a serious movie. It was more of a teaser trailer so I don't know if the film will be any good or not but I'm willing to give it a go

Resident Evil: Apocalypse was ACE!! They captured Nemesis perfectly. I was a happy little fangirl and I kept clapping my hands and making squee noises. LOL

Now I want to play the games again

(no subject)

Threat rating: High. The Bush administration is
concerned that it may not get a second term.
Therefore, we are going to change the rules so
that each Democrat vote only counts as 0.2
votes because Democrat is a shorter word than
Republican


What threat to the Bush administration are you?

What Does Your Name Mean?

Interesting

I just read the He-Man graphic novel that Dave got me for my birthday. It's really interesting. A collection of stories about how each of Skeletor's henchmen came to work for him. It starts with Beast-Man, then Mer-Man, then we see Trap-Jaw before he got the jaw and find out how he got it, Tri-Clops and how he got his visor thingy. The only person we didn't see was Evil Lynn.

DID see Skeletor before he became all boney though. It's not really explained how he changes though

I should not be allowed to rule the world. Ever

My nation started off so well, but I guess my politics are not good for a country. LOL. If I keep going this way I'll be an evil dictatorship by the end of next week

Nicked from everyone

*Jumps on the bandwagon*

I have a LOT of people on my friends list so I expect to be proved wrong on all of these fairly soon
