So there's this meme...

1.) You hit "Random Article" over at Wikipedia. The title of the article is the name of your band.
2.) You hit "Random Quotes" over at The Quotations Page. The last four words of the last quote on the page is the title of your album.
3.) You hit "Explore Last 7 Days" over at Flickr. The third picture is the cover of your album.
4.) Use photoshop or whatever to moosh it all up together and post.

Now, I don't know about you, but I had to click random article a few times before I could get something that wasn't some strange foreign name, already a band name, or some school district or another. Maybe that's cheating, but cheat I did.



Ain't it purty?

Friday I talked to my mum on the phone for the better part of an hour. Was a good conversation. Think she can tell how happy I am now. After that I went over to Ange's and we had drinks and chilli con carne as we watched movies like Evolution, True Lies, and Hott Fuzz. It was a fun night.

Then Saturday, Ange, Dad, Suzy, and their friends Eileen, Colin, and Ettie, and I all went on a picnic at Bridal Veil Falls and and afternoon at Raglan beach. Plus ice cream in Raglan itself. Another fine day, 'til my allergies went nuts and I had an early night.

Anyway, just spoke on the phone with my darlin'. That was nice. Will talk with him more after dinner. Which is now.

V - is for voracious. 'Cause when I'm hungry, I eat enough for for two. Villages.
I - is for imagination. Mine is very vivid and active and porny.
R - is for ribald. Porn. Swearing. All that fucking jazz.
G - is for gorgeous. Hey, if I keep being told that, it must be true, right? Right!
I - is also for irony. Also goes along with sarcastic and snarky.
N - is for nifty. 'Cause I am. :P
I - is also for I. As in, me, myself, and I. I am the centre of your universe.
A - is for arrogant. I know I am. I don't mind.

Guess the meme. Play it if you want.

Heh. Just realised R could also be for red, as in... the colour of my hair now. Hypnotic Red it's called. It's very red and pretty. :D

In this meme, you do the work...

Comment to this post with an offer to write in any fandom that you and I have in common. I will answer with a prompt. Then, you will write me comment-fic, snippets, or whatever comes to mind. Now go post this in your own journal and demand fic of your very own! Make your flistwork! You had a long week and you DESERVE it, dammit!

So, my fandoms are on my infopage if you forget those which we have in common. Go pick one so I can prompt you, and I'll return the favor to anyone who reposts this (but only if you try your hand at writing something for me, too).

Your Score: Greatsword


You preferred a weapon with 50% power over speed and 41% range over melee.




You use a Greatsword.

Do the words Zweihander or Flamberge mean anything to you? You prefer a Greatsword, a massive, heavy blade frequently strong enough to cut down the rides of mounted warriors. Though slow, the impressive length and heft of a greatsword makes it capable even of breaking through armor. Your enemies will run from the deadly arcs of your blade as you bear down on them.

Okay, funny thing. Last night, I had a sex dream, which was a threesome of me with a guy and another girl. Slightly weirded me out, because, hello, girls aren't really my thing. Also, she was blonde, and I don't generally find blonde girls attractive at all. So why would I get in a threesome with one? *shrugs* I wasn't thinking much about it, but then, I was straightening my hair when I got a text...

And it looks like I might be finally meeting this guy from Myspace tonight. What's more, he asked me if I'd ever been with a chick, and would I be open to a threesome with a chick? I had to see a picture of this girl, because if she was blonde, I was gonna laugh so hard. Well, he sent me a picture, and she is. It was all I could do not to burst out laughing as soon as I saw her picture. How funny to dream of being in a threesome and then get asked to partcipate in one not more'n a few hours later!

And on that note, at least she's hot for a blonde...

Anyway, life goes on.

Amazing that I've received 3,500 comments exactly. That's pretty cool. It's my 891st post... and I've had my lj since November 2003. There's all sorts of other quirky little stats and stuff I could come up with concerning my lj, but, well, who cares? It would only really be fascinating to me.

Because I love bringing it up, someone linked me to the youtube video involving the elephant on the trampoline that led to that oh-so-hypnotic icon. It's pretty damn cool, although I kept expecting something horrible to happen to the elephant. Not because I wanted to, but because it would totally make me flinch.

I haven't been feeling that talkative lately, or in the mood to respond to emails... which is a bad thing. Because I really should at least acknowledge that yes, I got this or that text or email, and I'm fine/alive/what-have-you... but then whoever contacted me with be in the mood to chat and ask questions, and I don't fucking feel like sharing. It's not like there's anything going on. I'm simply in a non-social mood. Thing. I don't know how to explain it. Reclusive? Temporarily?

I just want to sit back and watch, for a while.

From [livejournal.com profile] blue_raven: Oooh, okay. Interests: 'Brotherly hug my arse', 'fox terriers', 'Piglet' and for icons, 'Seabecks Hicks', 'Drunk guys', 'Rock on Dean'.

Brotherly hug my arse - In the third Harry Potter book, during that explosive scene in the Shrieking Shack, the text reads that when Remus realised Sirius was innocent, he "embraced him like a brother." It's sort of a shipper's denial about that, because I will always imagine they were together.

Fox terriers - My mum and her cousin both had foxies, and they were just adorable. Incredibly smart. Fly's nickname was Houdini, because he was notoriuos for finding ways out of the yard to wander off and explore. They have absolutely no road sense, and love to try choking themselves on the leash when taken for a walk, but they're awesome dogs. They're little, and clever, and cute:


Piglet - Everyone has their favourite Whinnie the Pooh character, right? Most people, it seems, like Tigger or Eeyore, although I'm sure there are others who adore some other character. An ex- of mine liked Kanga and Roo. For me, it's Piglet. He's the one that doesn't get the limelight very often. He's quiet, and shy, and smart, and the best of friends for Pooh. So I like him.

- Last place I lived in the States was this tiny little place called Seabeck, on the Olympic Peninsula, just outside of the town Silverdale. Anyway, when I went through my entries to tag them all, I found an old conversation I'd transcribed that I still remember, and still giggle about. So when I got in an icon making mood, I had to throw in the best part.




- This is another icon made from rereading old entries. It's a sort of motto I should try to live by, given some of the not so grand times I've had with drunk guys. It's not like any of it ever led to bad sex, exactly, but things could have been better, if they weren't drunk. Or I was more drunk, or something.





- Dean/Metallicar is my OTP. *snickers* Or possibly Sam/Dean/Metallicar, but anyway. I like this icon because, well, I adore Dean (and how much he loves the car) and rocking out to whatever music... And everyone's got those "Rock on!" moments, yeah?





Mmm, anyway, despite my efforts (ha!) I've been totally drawn into the McShep pairing and reading far more fic than I thought I would. It's kind of like my weakness for Daniel/Jack. It's like... I don't ship them, certainly not what I'd want as a canon pairing, but I keep reading fics where they're together anyway, because they're just so believable in the fic. I'm weird, I know. And I'm still going to read all sorts of fic. Heh.

Has anyone ever been surprised with sex? Like, you weren't expecting to get laid and weren't even feeling that desirable, but whoever has the job of satisfying those needs jumped you anyway? (Or at least tried to, and you figured what the hell anyway, despite the not knowing it was gonna happen.) Yeah. Also, this guy makes me feel like I weigh next to nothing when he picks me up and carries me to the bed.

Fin.

So I watched this movie last night, Frágiles (aka Fragile: A Ghost Story), that I knew absolutely nothing about. Has Calista Flockhart and Robert Roxburgh. Turns out, as scary movies go, it's not bad. It wasn't horribly terrifying, but there were certain moments I kinda wished I had someone to cling to. The ghost chick was rather freaky, really. I totally want to know where their version of Sleeping Beauty came from (the kids in the movie were watching it, and it wasn't Disney's version and the art looked much better).

Got a very good night of sleep last night, and the children were thankfully quiet this morning both flatmate and I got good sleep-ins. Makes up for the horribleness of yesterday morning.

Took this quiz thingy that makes a pretty picture...

So, didn't meet that guy. Thought about it, planned on it, and then decided not to when he mentioned being tired. Decided it can wait for some other time. I don't want to be with someone who's gonna fall asleep on me.

Seems my week for encounters on Myspace. Normally I don't have anything happening over there. Occasionally I get Myspace whores wanting to add me, and for a while I had a stream of sci-fi authors making a bid for my attention. In face, I just got invited to read the blog of some guy that looks like he's trying his hand at sci-fi fiction. The other message I got is someone giving me props for posting a bunch of links to YouTube vids I've enjoyed. I feel so popular. :P

Life is nothing interesting. I'm on a broke streak at the moment. Hopefully this will change soon. Otherwise, I am well, and I hope y'all are doing just fine, too. Or, y'know, if you're not fine, you know you'll be okay, in time. *hugs f-list* I care about you guys, even if I don't always say it.

Be well, or tell me who I gotta nudge/whack to make things better.

Please tell me you like 'em and are running off with a whole bunch. :D I have to go through all my old icon posts again, and fix the links because I got the grand idea to reorganise my files on photobucket. So those ones will be temporarily not there as I fix all that.

And because no entry of mine lately has been complete without a meme... here's another meme where I do most the work! Leave me a comment, and I will...

1. Tell you why I friended you
2. Associate you with something - a song, a color, a photo, etc.
3. Tell you something I like about you.
4. Tell you a memory I have of you.
5. Associate you with a character.
6. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
7. Tell you my favorite user picture of yours.
8. In return, I ask you to post this in your LJ.

My icons and interests to explain, from [livejournal.com profile] pink_faerie81:

rusty spoons - I had internet friend who, many years ago, once threatened to castrate his real life friend with a rusty spoon for daring to chat with me. Well that phrase, that form of punishment, really tickled me and I took it on as a personal motto of sorts... if a boy crossed me, he was going to get the rusty spoon treatment.

puddlejumpers - Puddlejumpers are ships that can travel through the Stargate and are capable of spaceflight as well as in the atmostphere. They don't hold up so well in deep water, though. :D I loved them from the first moment I saw one on Stargate Atlantis (although, of course, prerequisite would be me having the ATA gene, or John Sheppard to fly for me :P).

snarksexual - I came across this term in an icon, which said, "Snarksexual: because there is such a thing as too dumb to fuck." And I loved it. There's a community, even, [livejournal.com profile] snarksexual, but it's fairly quiet over there. Anyway, it's all about being attracted to sarcastic people, because sarcasm is hot.

- They say if you have to explain the joke... :P Okay, so there's the Borg saying, "Resistance is futile" when they're on their assimilation bent. Also, the resistance of an object opposing electric current passing through it is measured in ohms (Ω). Less than 1 ohm, and there's pretty much no resistance at all. I hated physics but I still love this joke.



- The dress is pretty. In fact, I want that dress. But also, I just like the colours and the girl, and the fact she's dancing--or about to dance--and I can see it just in the way she's posed.





- You know how there's those sayings like, "OMG racecar bling bling" or "im in ur [noun], [verb]in ur [noun}z" and the like? Well, this is the new internet fad. It comes from a metaquote involving a girl saying to Tim Curry, "That'll give you, er, bees." to her mortification and our amusement. Plus everytime I watch the icon I imagine his voice as he says, "Oh, indeed."



Now it's your turn, folks. Drop me a comment and I will give you 3 interests on your list and 3 of your icons to explain.

Once again, changed the colour and style of my journal. I also went on a huge trip down memory lane, as I went and tagged every entry. It's a bit random, but I did my best (ish). I'm satisfied, at any rate. I know I resisted tagging for so long, but, hey, it kinda makes it easier to find specific posts, especially after having them reasonably fresh in my mind. Although, reading through did lead to me having strange dreams where I ran into exes and stuff, which was frustrating.

But it also led me to finding an old meme, that I've forgotten the questions well enough to throw a new list together and try answering all over again...

First, write down the names of twenty people on your flist. Then read and answer the questions. You can't look at the questions (or click on the cut) until you write down the twenty names you're going to use.

That was fun. Now I gotta think about some dinner. *nods* Btw, most comments I've ever had on one entry is 26, but that's including my replies... and that barely makes up for the strings of entries that pass without comment and leave the attention whore in me feeling emo. :P This is my 876th entry on lj.

...to think you are alone, and turn to find out that you're not. Last night I was half-way through an episode of CSI: NY when my flatmate sleepily stumbled into the living room to ask if anything decent was on. Kinda freaked me, because I'd been under the impression he'd gone out several hours earlier, when, in fact, he'd only gone to bed (had an early morning, what with having to attend an ANZAC parade, and he's not a morning person). Thankfully I didn't embarrass myself by screaming or something when I saw him appear out of the shadows of the hallway, but my heart did jump.

One of the advantages of a flatmate who moonlights as a photographer is getting to borrow his camera...and getting him to take pictures of me for your enjoyment. :)

Several years ago my brother had the grand idea to send me this little red plastic bear. I fell in love with him immediately, and named him Charlie Bear. (Coincidentally, around the same time, a hurricane showed up and its name was Charlie, too, but I had nothing to do with that.) It's been my goal since then to acquire more of these bears, and this Christmas, [livejournal.com profile] pandoras_evil_t indulged in my budding collectiong by purchasing me another bear... I named him Nano Bear. This weekend I finally got some pictures of them together, a vast improvement on the blurry ones of Charlie from years back with my cheapo digital cam...

So there were pictures )

I also wanted some pictures of me, because I know I haven't posted any in a while. Yes, I straightened my hair again. The tank top is one of several I got for Christmas from my mum. Perhaps this weekend I can persuade my flatmate to take more pictures, and earlier in the day when the lighting is better. Maybe. If the weather holds.

And maybe I am all sorts of pretty, and my tummy is sexy )

In other news, no internets for the time being, beyond when I can snatch an hour or two at school. Don't know when it will be back up. I'll try to keep up with the happenings on my f-list, really, I will. Don't go beserk or anything, though, yeah?

Edit: Everyone else is doing it, so why not me?

I would build a ______ just for you. If I could sing you any song it would be ______. We could ______ under the stars. I want you to ______! The sex position I would most likely want to try out with you is ______.

(P.S. ______.)

Mmm, yesterday, after my insomnia got me up at four-something in the morning, well, I decided that just after seven would be a grand time to talk that walk listening to happy upbeat music. So, into the CD player went Eve 6, and off I went in time to miss Calum and Michaela getting up (how/why those children never sleep in is beyond my ken). I decided to alter my route a wee bit as well, for variety's sake. This is an idea that could have gone really bad really fast...

I'm walking down a street when out of the corner of my eye I see two rottweiler's trotting up to say hello. Now, I'm not the slightest bit afraid of dogs, and even though I hadn't even seen them 'til they were nearly on me, I didn't freak. It was just the way they approached me was that of excitement, like, "OOH! Someone to play with us!" rather than bounding at me barking furiously and deciding they wanted to try human. Still, two puppy-like rotties each weighing probably half as much as I do or more, who never learned not to jump on people?

They were also completely oblivious to my commands to go home, and wouldn't leave me be. They either walked deliberately in my path to slow me down to jump at me, and were under the impression I had treats in my pockets along with my cold hands. So, darlings that they were, I didn't really want them following me my entire walk, and I couldn't just leave two rotties wandering around, y'know?

So I walked towards the houses in the direction they'd come from, hoping at least one of the neighbors would know who the dogs belong to. Fortunately, I picked a house where the young couple and their kids were already awake and up, so I didn't disturb them on that count. I still apologised as I asked if they knew who might own them, and also, if they didn't, call someone to pick the dogs up. The guy stayed outside with me and the dogs to keep them wandering far or scaring his kids while his wife called the pound--but seven something on a Sunday morning? Pound was closed. So a few more calls later, and eventually the dogs were picked up by the MPs (military police. Oh the joys of living in a military camp. It's not that bad at all, actually...). I hope they found the owners and stuff, 'cause the dogs were nice, if, y'know, playful and adoring.

A few links, thanks to my f-list and my explorations:

YouTube video: Duckling feeding Koi

Not Fanfic: A Tale of Two Hearts -A sequel, of sorts, by Peter S. Beagle, of The Last Unicorn. Does anyone but me remember the movie? Read the book?

It's possible I got a wee bit carried away, and it's Atlantis-centric fic, although, yes, some from other fandoms. And crossovers. And AUs. All sorts. It's also very random, as I followed my thoughts and memories rather than any sort of order. Err... yeah. So.

Spare you these fanfic links (SG-1, SGA, SPN, some more acronyms and some crossovers) )

Also, sidenote of weirdness, perhaps as a disappointment on Supernatural not showing on Friday, and also overheatedness (I went to bed in many wrm layers and that probably gave my dreams a twisted turn), but I dreamed about them last night, too. I don't remember much, but in my dream Sam was left facing the ghost things alone, unarmed, because Dean was...doing something with Papa Winchester...but they showed up in the nick of time to help Sam. But Sam wouldn't talk to his dad, just grabbed some stuff out of the trunk and went back to face the ghosty creature and I sorta lost the plot after that. It was just weird watching Sam all angsty but also in charge.

I also dreamed about SGA a wee tiny bit, and, well, my spaceship. Yeah, Valerie. She showed up in my mind some weeks ago, and been prodding me to design her layout, and further discussions with Matt are hammering out technological things. And now I'm figuring out her crew. This is all sorts of fun, but it invaded my dreams, damnit, and that's just crazy-obsessive of my brain.

Go look at my userpics. Ask me anything about any one of them--why I chose it, why that fandom, where the hell did I find it--anything at all.

An even bigger challenge: go look at said userpics, pick one, and write a drabble-length piece about it in the comments. It needn't be exactly 100 words. Could be more, could be less, but more than a sentence or two, if you please. If you do this, I will go look at your userpics, and return the favour.

Seriously, is there something about Easter and Jesus' Undead Shindig, or what, that brings out End-of-the-World vibes? I mean, firstly, there's Black Sheep coming out, uhh, tomorrow, and don't make me repeat the Multi-Fandom challenge I mentioned in my last post, and, oh, someone on my f-list chose to point out World War Z right about now... And also, May bring us 28 Weeks Later 'cause Lord knows that movie needs a sequel with, like, none of the original characters... Yeah.

Completely unrelated, although the Red Eyes might deceive you, [livejournal.com profile] pandoras_evil_t posted a handful of pictures from her 21st, including a couple of me (and thus, the only important ones :P) so I figured I'd share. Hopefully she'll get a hold of more and we can sit back and admire them, too. We don't actually have any pictures of being out on the town, just ones from dinner... but hey. It was a grand time. *snerk* Photographic evidence of selling my panties would have been hilarious, now that I think about it.

Lookit! All prettified )

...Andrea makes me look tanned. *laughs*

In a bid for more linkage... I decided to go looking for CSI: NY fanfic that was Danny-centric, but non-shippy. I found a few, before I got overwhelmed and beat a hasty retreat. But there's one I read, about Danny and Flack set between Seasons 2 & 3, called Brothers and Sisters (Everything I Can't Remember). There's a second, third, & fourth part, as well. And man... I try not to cry over fics. Sometimes I can't stop tears welling up and letting one or two loose. *shakes head* This fic had me damn near bawling by the end. I liked it a lot, though.

...and now I'll get back to betaing a fic for [livejournal.com profile] ashinae.

Use the 1st letter of your name to answer each of the following...They MUST be real places, names, things...NOTHING made up! If you can't think of anything, skip it. Try to use different answers if the person in front of you had the same 1st initial. You CAN'T use your name for the boy/girl name question.

President Grant: Mr. West, not every situation requires your patented approach of shoot first, shoot later, shoot some more and then when everybody's dead try to ask a question or two. ~Wild Wild West

I wish I could say my life is full of interesting happenings. It's not. Nothing major is going on... I mean, there's a guy, kind of (I'm not sure what we are, beyond having sex on occasion), and there's life stuff... I'm probably being slack somewhere or another.

My mother, bless her, sent me a money order for $75US that converts to just over $100NZ for bike accessories that I haven't acquired yet. I've thanked her many times, 'cause I'd thought I'd have to save up for that stuff over time.

I've started watching Without a Trace on Thursdays, just because. It's okay, but not a show I think I'll be passionate about.

I texted my dad the other weekend about whether or not he's got my Serenity DVD but he never replied. I don't know what all busy stuff he's got going on in his life, but he's been slow on email replies too. 'Cause he sent my brother and I an email a while ago about some life insurance policy taken out on us when we were kids, that made v. little sense to me, and it took a while for him to reply to my rather confused, "Wha...?" I'm still not sure what it's all about, except that he's kindly contacting the lawyers for us about quotes and stuff.

My brain is clearly on some strange drug, given some of the dreams I've had lately. One involved me sleeping with one guy and pregnant with his kid, when I took up with not only an old one night stand, but a third guy, and, somehwere in all this my family was visiting and being all friendly to everyone. I'm still not sure how no one was mad at me for playing three guys like that. And being pregnant.

...and that's about it, really. Nothing interesting here, carry on your way, 'bye now.

[Sam and Dean are posing as potential homeowners]
Lynda Bloome: Well, let me just say that we accept homeowners of any race, religion, color or...
[looks at Sam and Dean]
Lynda Bloome: sexual orientation.
Dean Winchester: Hmm, right.
[to Sam]
Dean Winchester: I'm gonna go talk to Larry. Okay, honey?
[slaps Sam on the ass]

Given that, well, this was the second person to feed them that line... *giggles* Also, I don't think I'm supposed to laugh at Sam when he's angsting, but laugh I did. :D

Happy St. Patrick's Day, btw.

Finally seeing an episode of Stargate SG-1 with Teal'c having hair, and Cam, and Vala, and General Landry... all of whom I've only heard about, rather than actually seeing any episodes with them before. I'm not sure if I like them so much. I probably need to see more eps before they grow on me. *stares at TV* Okay, maybe I rather like Vala. *grins*

Anyway... feeling cold and like nesting. Grand.
