...And some of us are in the gutter, thoroughly enjoying the view.
Now, see, this is why I like the official exams. I just got our Functional Skills English papers two months early. Two months. So much nicer than getting them ten minutes before the exam, srsly. *flop*
Current mood:
accomplished.
...A hard frost, a pale sky and a tawny sunrise. *peeks out at the world!*
And me hitting the snooze button on my alarm and waking up half an hour later, but that's by the by. ^_^;; Especially when you consider that Briar poked his nose out to have a look at the weather, groaned and promptly vanished back into the warm again. Flowerfae Do Not Do winter cold when they're summer-flowering ones.
Also!
Pinch-punch first day of the month and no returns HAH! *-vipruns!*
EDIT:
'Boots: *poking about and trying to find some work to do*
Briar: It's cold.
'Boots, absently: It's the first of December. You'd think you'd be used to it by now.
Briar: That doesn't make it any less cold.
'Boots: *leans back in chair, looks over shoulder at him* You're wearing half the headspace's blankets and you're complaining you're cold?
Briar: I'm a plant. I don't do body heat very well. Cold.
'Boots: *...puts the heating on* How's that?
Briar: *........*
'Boots: *...* You just want some attention, don't you?
Briar: ^_^
'Boots: ...Fine, fine, there. Icon. Happy?
Briar: It certainly sums things up, yes. *^_^* *toddles off back to the pile of half-asleep Fae*
'Boots: *...facepalm*
(Felix, from headspace: *asdfghjklBriar your feet are cold!*)
Current mood:
sleepy.
Since Rath crossposted it and everything, I might as well.
( The wishlist meme. )
...I didn't write it originally, okay? ;P
My list:
1. A stick. No, I'm not kidding - when I was a kid, I had a proper varnished Galdalf staff that my Dad found in the woods and cut up for me so that I could go to my school's World Book Day dressed up as Gandalf. I kept it for years, but I think it's been thrown out in the middle of the patio being redone at my mum's. ...Want my whackin' stick, dammit. What happens if a Balrog turns up?
2. Hair ties, those plain elasticated ones that come in pretty colours. I keep losing all of mine!
3. A full-time job for Pepper. Srsly, if anyone knows about any vacancies to make for a happy moogle...
4. To know what happened when Riker's Island went up when Turbo and 'Mis were out watching the sky that night, and if they found Blackout and Deathwatch or not.
5. The next installment of KH:MH and-or the Guardian Angels comic.
6. Mood icons. I've got plenty of character ones or silly ones, but no 'Happy!' or 'Cranky!' or 'Angry!' ones.
7. A 'recommended' list of anime people think I'd like. I want to get into watching more anime and similar, but I have little enough clue where to start...
8. Fanart of my boys, though that's more of an ego-stroker than the rest since no-one outside of Pepper knows who they are or remembers them anymore.
9. Not to be overlooked and forgotten about except for when people want something, though I'm not sure how you'd wrap that.
10. A two-bedroom flat with a big kitchen, a balcony and a study for doing Arts in that comes pre-packed with a mooglevisa. Good luck, Father Christmas.
Current mood:
cynical.Current music: The Black Mages, Vamo' Alla Flamenco.
Going down the stairs next to the hall? My foot hit the floor at the exact same time 'Rock around the clock' came blaring out from behind me. XD Surprise dance troupe!
Ali said I look a lot better than I did last week. This does not surprise me, considering that I ended up sleeping until half one in the afternoon on saturday after the mocks were done... >_> I feel a lot better, not to mention less strung-out and exhausted, so fingers crossed it'll last and the sniffle in the back of my nose goes away.
Knitatron's done up to the hips, btw. I'm also rather ashamed to admit that I did his pelvis the wrong colour, but I think I'll just make Ben lots of little additional bits so he can dress up the grey protoform into several different TFs. Hey, it's a project...
Current mood:
awake.Current music: Advent Children soundtrack, J-E-N-O-V-A.
My laptop just froze up for the third time so far today and I've lost all the tabs I had open. *facepalm* Pepper? If I don't reply to a comment thread, hit me upside the head with a link, please? I'm not doing it deliberately. -_-
And there goes the obligatory yearly panic about Christmas presents. It would be so much easier if my family had fandoms, then I could make them something without worrying. -______-
I'm going to get some lunch and knit Ben a Megatron. And not sulk about all the links to Interesting Things I'd found to wave around.
Current mood:
grumpy.
*crashes*
(And now I have to go find out why the hell my credit card hasn't been paid off in full, despite me having three times that much in the bank. *grumbles* Catch me buying a bus ticket that way again...)
((EDIT: Ah - scratch that, sorted. It was because I hadn't used the damn thing for so long that the direct debit had expired. XD))
Current mood:
exanimate.
I have a new shirt! ...Okay, I houldn't really have bought it, but! It's long enough to go past my arse and has a tie-back thing for typing my sleeves back into the rolled-up-and-out-of-the-way position!
(That and the sleeves actually cover my wrists. I am most put out that my nice blue
((And it's a size 12. Can I just squeal about that for a second? I know that every single size only had about a centimetre difference in it each way, since I also fitted into a 10 for crying out loud, but - squeak. Squeak.
And the goddamn saddlebags are gone gone gone. I only noticed today - how I only noticed today, I don't know. Seems eight miles on the bike every day is doing more good than I thought. *hugs self and bounces*))
And now I'm going to bed, since I seem to be breaking out in italics. *WHUMPF*
Current mood:
exanimate.Current music: Duran Duran, Hungry like the wolf.
Just realised/was told something - Heartsease was really confused by films as a kid, 'cause he couldn't figure out where all the people's halos had gone. I don't know whether it's because they're pre-recorded or whether it's a processing/lense thing or what, but still - just tell the typist, the world will realign to make it make sense later. ;P
(Apparently he's sort of all right with things like Skype and the little monitor-comms, but he has to squint.)
Current mood:
tired.Current music: Iron Maiden, Out of the Silent Planet.
I just managed to sew my sewing machine to the bit of material I was working on. I just - I don't even - what? I spent a good twenty minutes dismantling the thing and I still don't know how I did that!
...That said, six hours in front of a sewing machine and I'm not sure what planet I'm on, let alone what I did to prompt that. *blink*
I committed a cardinal sin today, too - I threw out a spool of thread when it was only half finished. *the horror!* In my defence, it was an awful slippery, horribly manufactured-feeling thread that was impossible to work with and not have it snarl up, tangle or - as happened today - bunch up and turn my nice row of sewing-machine-stitches into an aquamarine version of The Thing from the Black Lagoon. *growl* I had to re-do one bit three times and the wrong way around before I could get it looking halfway decent, rargh!
All in all, considering that I was crashed out in a heap fast asleep until lunchtime, I feel quite productive. ^_^; Wonder if I can get away with slipping my knitting into an exam...
Current mood:
productive.Current music: Nothing yet, the laptop just crashed again. -_-.
SEND HALP I'VE BEEN DISNEY'D
Current mood:
silly.
