Notes of Some Importance w/Meme of Love

[misscam]

Right. So, for those who wondered why I've been slightly distracted, settling into a new job is the answer. Which is interesting so far. But I had been hoping for a week or two off to write between jobs. I have too many stories planned (including a Nine/Rose one called A Heartbeat And Two for phdelicious, because she has made me man Fine Icons. Including this one) and it's just silly of me, really. Particulary since I also want to watch TV, play WoW, read books, redecorate and take over the world at the same time.

Never enough time, is there?

In Notes of Some Importance:
- CSI fandom will probably get some more wnak over lastest developments. Time for a wankimplosion post again, y/n?
- The Daily Show is in fact more made of win than ever now that I get it every day.
- Hey hun, using terms of supposed affection in that patronizing way is actually more offensive than just slamming someone. Ya rly.
- Norwegian entertainer who plays dumb reporter manages to get vaguely noticed in the US by making an American politician curse lots. In the US, politician gets flack for cursing, she gets interviewed by Fox news. In Norway, she gets voted off Dancing With the Stars and everyone is more concerned about the coming Euro qualifier.
- Have now gotten PPP icons and thus is officially a shipper of Personal Preference Pairings.
- New Public Access banner in this LJ. With moose.
- Aha Australian election called finally! May you lose, Prime Toad. May you lose hard.
- Latest debate raging in Norway - sex play in kindergartens.
- And also we have bear fear, apparently.
- Football season in Norway is almost over. Sniffles.

And a meme of love:
Reply to this post (with something indicating you want to be memed), and I will list three things I love about you. Maybe more than three. Then repost to your own journal and spread the love, if you want, but you totally don't have to. Unconditional love.

You know, as someone not at all in CSI fandom, it seems to explode into wank rather frequently.

There was a lot of "about damn time" mumbling from me about the election. Even if it means the papers will be full of nothing but politics for the next six weeks.

And speaking of international politics, we had one of them re: Kevin Rudd a little while back. Only in Australia can someone running for PM get dobbed in for being at a strip joint, and have their popularity increase.

Meme me up, plz.

- You lead to me meeting Rob, as it were.
- You know the importance of the manflesh.
- You can make the funny.

[denorios.livejournal.com]

Go on then, love me. If you must. *sighs long-sufferingly*

[misscam.livejournal.com]

- Your football posts always cheer me up, even if your team isn't my team.
- Your Britishness is indeed lovable.
- Enthusiasm.

[falena]

Your PPP icons are very pretty, but the name still makes me sporfle as pipì in Italian kiddie talk means "piss", I think I told you once already. Yeah, I'm very mature.
New banner is ten kinds of adorable. Everything is better with moose.

Re: sex play in kindergartens. I read the article and rationally find it an interesting issue that needs to be addressed, but somehow there's a part of me that viscerally cannot see children in a sexualised context.

Norway is playing against Bonia, right? We're playing Scotland next and I'm having a major indecision crisis over what team I shall cheer for. Lol.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's made even quite tolerant Norwegians balk a bit. But I do remember as a child doing some of that fairly innocent sexual stuff, so I see the point also. Er, I don't know.

We are playing Bosnia, ye. We need to win and kinda hope Greece kicks Turkish ass, I think.

I'm cheering Scotland and hoping Italy fails to qualify. Sorry :P

[falena]

I have no doubt that you progressive Nordic people will think it out and take the best course of action that maybe we will put into practice ten years later, after much wank.

Good luck then!

I had no doubt about that. :P I'm in denial because I'd love to cheer for Scotland but omg, I feel like a big traitor.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

If we're extra speedy, it might just take us five years. But then we probably wank twice as hard.

Mmm. I always feel pangs of guilt over my inability to cheer the Norwegian team. But then I comfort myself knowing I would cheer for them if they sucked less.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Oh, right, three things.

- You rock.
- You make awesome chips.
- My trip in Italy was fab.

[falena]

Hahaha, hadn't had the chance to make chips ever since you left. Sniff.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

You make me hungry now.

[aervir.livejournal.com]

New Public Access banner in this LJ. With moose.

Nice banner. But what's the thing on the right? It looks vaguely like a yak, but even with my sketchy knowledge of Norwegian fauna, I know this can't be right. Or is it just a funny-shaped rock? Um.

Also: Give me some lovin', please, as I'm having a not-that-spectacular day.

[norwegianne.livejournal.com]

It looks like a Muskox - found in the Dovre region of Norway- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muskox

[aervir.livejournal.com]

Thanks for that interesting trivia of the day. Until now, I didn't even know that muskoxen exist. I'll have to pay better attention during my next visit to the zoo.

[norwegianne.livejournal.com]

I live to share information...

[misscam.livejournal.com]

- Your brain is awesome.
- Your honesty.
- Your very interesting stuff on what you've read.

And as said below, it is indeed a musk ox.

[colorstoobright.livejournal.com]

Ugh, CSI. The madness never stops, really, when you come to think of it.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Not even when the show does, no. Except maybe if it ends in an orgy.

[sinneahtes.livejournal.com]

I am in a memey mood lately...

[misscam.livejournal.com]

- All your various posts on what interests you. Often quite informative.
- Your interest in photography and posting of such.
- CAAAAATS.

[witchqueenrat.livejournal.com]

No meme but I had to post to ask if someone has introduced you to the Colbert Report. If not, I cannot recommend it highly enough. It's a branchild of the Daily Show and follows the same format but Colbert plays a right-wing pundit. If you've seen his speech at the Correspondents Dinner (in the presence of Bush and his entire administration no less) and enjoyed it, you can't miss the Report. Also, he's my pretend husband. :-)

[misscam.livejournal.com]

I know of it, but sadly, it doesn't air in Norway. I've seen some clips and I have seen that particular speech. But regular watching seems unavailable to me :(

[butterfliedgsr.livejournal.com]

Poor CSI fandom :( It won't be the same :(

[misscam.livejournal.com]

But there will still be wank and ship wars, I have no doubt.

[butterfliedgsr.livejournal.com]

Of course. Far too big a fandom for that not to happen.

[lyricalviolet.livejournal.com]

Congrats on the new job!

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Thanks. It has a lot easier travelling than my last one, at least.

[silvery-lass.livejournal.com]

Meme me!

[misscam.livejournal.com]

- Your tendency to take an interest in so many diverse things.
- Eurosong snark.
- Refined Bush hate.

[gypsyjr.livejournal.com]

I could always use some love.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

- Amusing icons.
- Frequent love of British things made of win.
- Teh funneh.

(Seeing Simon Pegg on a t-shirt today at work made me think of you, BTW.)

[littlezink.livejournal.com]

First, congrat on the shiny new job. Hope all goes well!

The sex play article throws me for a bit of a loop, mostly because I'm in the middle of reading Huxley's Brave New World at the moment. As I read the chapter discussing sex play in children I was shocked, but found it amusing in a very removed way. It's only fiction, right? Apparently not, and now I'm struggling to find a balance between my viceral response of 'No!', and my urge to try to at least consider the theory behind the belief.

I have to say that from a parent's perspective I'm not comfortable with the thought of other adults administrating sex play in my child. At some point I would become concerned about the possibility of pedophilia, no matter how many degrees an individual has.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I feel vaguely... Iffed about the prospect. I would very much be in favour of children being taught a bit about... Well, if not sex, at least a bit about their own body. I do agree that knowing a bit might help children know better when they're taken advantage of. But it is troubled waters, and we'd have to be really, really careful how we pitched our oars.

[stringertheory.livejournal.com]

Because I am in need: love me?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

- Your enthusiasm at watching classic Who is catching.
- You actually have a link to the Evil Overlord list in your LJ.
- Good film reviews.

[wintergreen126.livejournal.com]

*waves* how are you? and how goes the new job?

moose! yay moose!

and if you get a chance, and if there are three things you love about me, please do share :o)

have a great day!

[misscam.livejournal.com]

It goes okay, but having a bad day at the moment. Got robbed last night. Gah.

- Your cheerfulness is catching.
- You really do seem very attentive and nice.
- Love for football - even if it's the wrong version ;)

[marcasite.livejournal.com]

Love?

Hope you are not getting to crazed at the new job, I know you've been busy! And yes, CSI fandom is due for something imploding soon. Should get the shelter ready, just in case...

[misscam.livejournal.com]

- You're nice, yet have a snarky side for special occasions.
- Willingness to help out, especially with your friends.
- Staying sane in fandoms that go vaguely batshit.

[siraj.livejournal.com]

*is amused about the Norwegian entertainer*

Meme me?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

- Determination to be yourself.
- Brains.
- Far too much niceness.

Norway be Norway all right.

[siraj.livejournal.com]

*blush*
*double blush*
*ultra blush!*

Could be worse... could be us... again...

New CSI development...

[anybodybutsara.livejournal.com]

I'm just happy it's over at last...

With Jorja Fox having made an official announcement that's she's leaving, there's no room for argument...

CBS' writers can dispose of the character of Sara Sidle as they see fit and hopefully the rest of this season can go on uneventfully...

I have no doubts that GSRs & Sara fans will continue to explore & enjoy that storyline in fanfics...

ABS;)

Re: New CSI development...

[misscam.livejournal.com]

And people who don't get their ships - and those who do - will continue to wank on. No doubt the Sara bashing will also continue, given how fond some people seem to be of it.

Re: New CSI development...

[anybodybutsara.livejournal.com]

Possibly...But what would be the point after she's officially gone and the point is moot?...

[canadian-kazz.livejournal.com]

Yay! Meme! I dunno if you know enough about me to love, but meh.

I'm glad I'm not in the CSI fandom any more. The shit is really hitting the fangirls.

*huggles John Stewart*

Great... election. Woot. Time for a new PM!

[misscam.livejournal.com]

- Daaaaaaaleks.
- You share your joys.
- You actually have icons for cheering people up.

[canadian-kazz.livejournal.com]

If you think those cheering up icons were good, check out this one.

*YAY FOR DALEKS*

*hugs* thanks, Cam.
