Urgh

Well, drbillbongo is on the train and should be at the airport fairly soon. I've been awake since 5:45am and I got to work at 7:20am this morning. I've NEVER been at work this early before.

I listened to Viggo's CD while I walked to work. It was...interesting. Very trippy. The sort of music you'd listen to at 2am while finishing off a bottle of red wine. Or is that just me?

Anyway, very tired and I'm hoping for a quiet day today. Will most likely go to bed as soon as I get home

Neeeeeeeeed sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

drbillbongo sent me a text to let me know she made it to the airport safely. I feel bad about having to let her make her own way there but I just don't have any spare holiday left after the extra time I took off when the flat burned down. Still, she should be back in Germany now so I'm sure she'll update you with her adventures

Is it bedtime yet?

1. beanie:
   I've had a crush on Beanie since I saw Lady Chatterly when I was about 13. Then came Sharpe. How can anyone not love Sharpe? And my obsession was finally sealed when he did LotR
2. buffy conventions:
   I just love conventions really. Anything that enables to meet actors I love and hang with fellow fans is of the good
3. common rotation:
   Gamiila introduced me to CoRo and I loved them! Must go and see them again some time soon
4. fantasy:
   I read a load of AD&D novels when I was growing up and the Shanara books are some of my faves
5. hurt/comfort:
   Don't really know where my love of h/c comes from. I just like it. Fics, movies, books, anything. I'm a bit of a sap and when injured characters (men) are being taken care of I go all wibbly
6. jason carter:
   I met Jason Carter very briefly at Toronto Trek a couple of years ago. He was adorable. In fact I liked him so much I went and watched all of B5. Marcus! *sniffles*
7. mocking orlando bloom:
   Hehe. Well, what can I say. Jacqui gets cross when I do this but he's just such a target!
8. pirates of the caribbean:
   Ah, the first fandom to tempt me away from Buffy. What's not to like? It's got swords, ships, pirates, a pretty commodore, eyeliner and Captain Jack Sparrow
9. slash:
   It's funny, I never used to like slash and then one day I read a Spike/Angel one by mistake and it was just so erotic that I started reading more and more. These days I hardly read any het at all
10. vigbean:
    Ah, my latest fixation. I discovered them by accident when I was looking for Sean/Orlando fics. I realised that Sean/Viggo was MUCH hotter and I've loved them ever since

Question

If you had to recommend 5 movies everyone should see, what would they be?

JAMIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

The Scarlet Pimpernel has just been dispatched. WHEE! Right when I have no time for watching DVDs either. I still have something like 14 episodes of Lost to watch *sigh*

My pirate name is:

Captain Mary Bonney

Even though there's no legal rank on a pirate ship, everyone recognizes you're the one in charge. You can be a little bit unpredictable, but a pirate's life is far from full of certainties, so that fits in pretty well. Arr!

Get your own pirate name from fidius.org.

Right

Now I have a weeks worth of flist posts to wade through. I could be here some time...

You Are 60% Boyish and 40% Girlish

You are pretty evenly split down the middle - a total eunuch. Okay, kidding about the eunuch part. But you do get along with both sexes. You reject traditional gender roles. However, you don't actively fight them. You're just you. You don't try to be what people expect you to be.

How Boyish or Girlish Are You?

Question

Do I need to put posts about BSG Season 1 behind a cut or has everyone who cares seen it?

An announcement

I love Viggo

A lot

Hm...

Well, I went back 980 entries and I STILL wasn't caught up. Ah well, not much else I can do really

Now, do I watch some more Lost or do I bugger it and squee over Jamie in BSG...

Food before either of those really. I'm in the mood for some pasta but I don't have anything to eat with it. In fact I don't think we have any food in at all. Shall have to get a takeaway of some variety.

OHH!

Do Not Go Gentle

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Dylan Thomas
