Dreams

[slowfox]

Had a strange dream last night, about being at Uni, attending a lecture on some kind of exploration thingy. The amusing thing was that carolanne5 was there - she got to the lecture about 3 seconds before the lecturer started talking, because her living arrangements meant that her commute took her through 12 countries, each way :-)

In other news, Castle Fox's interwebz are as dead as the proverbial doornail. Which causes issues for my daily OotP chapter discussion, but I'll see what I can do to work around that... looks likely that the posts are going to shift to mornings, but they should still be 24 hours apart, so people will still have time to read each chapter, I hope.

Comradette K has lent me the DVD to Twiglight. It's sitting here on top of the PC at the moment, and I'm wondering if I dare take it home to watch, or whether I should just pretend. I fear the latter might prove slightly healthier for my sanity.

OMG Twilight. To be fair, the movie is much better than what I have sampled of the book. :D

This gives me some hope...

Umm... I'd fear for your sanity, too, if you watched that DVD! Too many long lingering looks :-/ Still, you do have some BSG to watch to counteract it.

Woe for no interwebz - I can see you're going to have to go into an obliging Starbucks or MacDonalds over the lond weekend to catch up!

Well, the library has WiFi, so that's Saturday sorted (Linkfest, OotP:6). Sunday I may piggy back on the connection up at the Farm, which leaves Monday...

Oh, btw, did you see this Fictionalley notice:

I don't seem to appear on that fic list, so I'm assuming that I shouldn't attempt to resubmit the Ron fic...

Ok now I'm trying to imagine what 12 countries I could feasibly commute through in a 24 hour period, overland that is. Mmmm, maybe if you started in Norway then circle down and back up via Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg and France. Then a helicopter to Eire, then up to NI, Wales, Scotland and land back in England.

Of course you need a rely of drivers and pilots. Actually I think it would make a fab Top Gear challenge!

Do not watch it. It is so much worse than the books. It is painful. You will want to rip your own eyes out. And possibly your ears too, the dialogue is so much worse outloud.
