Hope you all enjoyed your holiday/weekend - and didn't get snowed to despair like I did. Argh, weathersgods. Argh.
Bad weather seems also to have lead to another fatal building collapse after a landslide. Weather, not to be trifled with. (I see it made BBC too..)
Can you imagine waking up at 3 a.m by the building 'jumping' and then collapsing on you? Holy shit. Latest is that there's a gas-fuelled fire going and five people are feared dead.
Live while you can, because there are no guarantees. Yowza.
I see half my flist are talking about A Rapist's View of the World: Joss Whedon and Firefly and... Yeah. I'll let you form your own mind up. (People are rather angry at it here.) I will however say one thing - speaking as one who has actually had experience with rape, can people bloody well stop using stupid metaphores with it already? It's dragged into so much stupid and diluted so much it makes me grit my teeth. You know what is exactly like rape? Rape. You know what isn't like rape? Most things in life. YA RLY.
GAHRGH.
Plans for the week:
- Explore patch 2.4 for WoW. Yay Sunwell. Yay killing Kael for good. Yay new loot.
- Cheer my team to victory in the first football match of the season. That's right. Tippeligaen 2008 is here! Men! Balls! Sunday!
- Finish But For Hope (or How Sex Didn't Heal Rose, but Life Might) finally.
- Plot holiday of awesome for
falena84's visit.
- Decide on a new layout - currently, I'm thinking about a "Complicated is the whole point" one with various ships and stuff I have, though WoW is also a strong contender.
- Kill the snow just with my Glare of Hate and Spring Lust. Give me spring and biking conditions, dammit!
A fannish meme:
You know you have television/films/books/music/fanfiction you're ashamed to admit to liking. Confess!
I admit I have watched... The Bachelor. Several seasons. And kinda enjoyed it in a train-wreck-omg-what sort of way. Help.
You may now hit me with a clam.
