Good God

Most boring day ever in the history of days. Talk to me, someone. I command you.

I agree. You are most perceptive.

I have exactly four minutes and 10 seconds left on this public computer in which to wait.

Yes. Yes, I am in a weird mood. I have a cold. My period just started. It's Friday and my VPN connection for work WON'T CONNECT.

argh.

My sympathies. I am now at home, TWO AND A FUCKING HALF HOURS after I left work. Ahem. Please excuse me. The contrariness of the universe is getting to me a little.

BORING?????? How can it be boring when it has brought forth the Prisoner of Azkaban DVD OMG????!!!!!!!

Hello, Duckie!!

[identity profile] sheldrake.livejournal.com 2004-11-19 09:03 am (UTC)(link)
Helloy. Well yes, that is a good thing. But it has been exceeding boring, nonetheless.

Go do something fun and exciting. Like sit on a bench in Civic Way.

[identity profile] sheldrake.livejournal.com 2004-11-19 09:14 am (UTC)(link)
I could do that! I left my keys at home so I'm currently wasting the half hour I got off work in the library. Because I'm an idiot like that, you see.

Not that libraries are not great, of course...

Libraries rock. Let's face it, where would you be now if it weren't for libraries? hhmm?

Actually, you would be sitting on a bench on Civic Drive. But there you go...

This is true. And I might as well have stayed there, too, seeing as how -- [the rest of this rant has been deleted by the LJ Pointless Moaning Police].

So there.

Heheh. I made myself two, just for good measure.

Oooh, two Naveen icons. *licks & licks* Yes, don't mind me, I'm perving.

Quite understandable.

Why in the world would Alfred Kinsey study gall wasps? What have they to teach us?

[identity profile] sheldrake.livejournal.com 2004-11-19 09:13 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know. Do you think gall wasps spend all their time being galled about things? "Ooh," they say to each other. "Ooh, I am galled. Ooh, life is very galling, don't you think?" And the other wasps say, "Oh yes, it is galling. Very galling, I think. I'm exceedingly galled today." And that's sort of ... how they go on, you see. That's why Kinsey gave up on gall wasps and went on to .

Hmm... dunno how that happened. Oh wait - I'm in a public library! They don't allow the use of questionable words like the one I may have used. Heheh.

your icon speaks to me.

[identity profile] sheldrake.livejournal.com 2004-11-19 10:18 am (UTC)(link)
As well it might...

Your icon reminds me that today I read a fic called Boris the Vampire Slayer. Sadly, I found it on Friends of Friends of Friends so I don't know where it is.

was it about our boris, though? cos that would be awesome.

[identity profile] sheldrake.livejournal.com 2004-11-19 11:38 am (UTC)(link)
Oh yes, it was! Boris disovered he was the slayer and Michael Howard was head vampire or something. I was sneakily reading it while I was pretending to be doing something important. Let me see if I can find it for you....

...Oh, well that wasn't too hard:

Indeedy.

I was sorry to hear about your lightbulb incident. Have you got some candles? You could pretend you're from an earlier, simpler time. Or something.

Are you the secret Mrs Rufus Wainwright??...

And if so, would you object to sharing? If I could see him writhe about on stage wearing a cape and pilgrim hat at least once a year I wouldnt ask for more. Apart from when he is requested to swish his cape about his person before raising arms to the sky to extol how beautiful life is...a bit of that from time to time would be nice. Essential even.

I was laughing at the Viggo-meets-aliens story again last night. Fabulous story. but where are the aphid and table slash stories? They were a delight too.

Oh yes, and Shriney told me about Mary Sues!! What a fantastic term! Where did it come from? Was there a specific fiction or episode of The Waltons? I think I feel a google coming on.

Sadly I am not the secret Mrs Rufus Wainwright but if there were ever, in an awfully alternative universe, to be such a thing, and if by sheer bloody-minded weirdness, I were to be it, then of course I would allow you access to his cape-swishing-and-writhing activities (which are of course insanely fabulous, as we are lucky enough to know).

My God, was that all one sentence?

Thank you for continuing to be nice about my stories, Pouley, you are a treasure and my frail and withered ego thanks you. For one reason or another, I don't keep aphids or table slash on my website (come to think of it, I dunno why table slash isn't on there - it might as well be), but if you're really that desperate you can find them in my LJ Memories:

Thank you for that!!! Truly fabulous!
If your ego could tap into your fandom it would explode with joy like the blowhole of a blue whale (but without the faintly cabbage-y aroma of cetacean breath)

Cabbagey, eh? :)

Oh, I meant to say I discovered the origin of the term 'drabble', but it's on my home computer. I shall post it for your delectation and perusal as soon as poss.
