Awesome weekend!
- Tromsø, my darling team, won their match 4-0 and is still third in the league - if they win the match they had postponed they will be second. I'm trying very hard not to get excited and failing. Must remind myself there is still a lot of the season left, even if we're past halfway.
- Shiny Amazon package with Sarah Jane Adventures, Top Gear specials, Hogfather and Razor arrived. Mmm. Shinies.
- I finished "Far More Trouble (aka Five Time Bill Adama Got Laid and One Time Lee Probably Did)" and sent to beta. Yes, it is almost as much sex in it as it sounds like and a bit more introspection than it sounds like.
falena84 even made me this icon to encourage it.
- New LJ header!
misscam Because Adama and Roslin have eaten by brain, yes.
skybound2 was kind enough to make it for me :)
- BSG wrap-up video posted with some screencaps and POTENTIAL SPOILERS LIKE WHOA. Also, POTENTIAL AWESOME AND HEARTBREAK LIKE WHOA. Now we just need the new trailer and, you know, new episodes.
- My World of Warcraft guild downed Kaz'rogal the first time we tried him and it was sweeter than sweet. (We haven't been doing Mount Hyjal of late, focusing more on Black Temple and summer holidays.) We had a go at next one (Azgalor) and got him to 36% in first go, and then it was bedtime so we're going after him again tonight. We get him, Archimonde is the next target. Eee Archimonde. Also, I've been promoted to Raid Leader in my guild now. Eeek, scary.
I seriously went to bed with the most awesome glee on Sunday and of course was then faced with a pile of work Monday morning. That's life for you.
Links o'interest:
- For 9000 USD, you too can own a Titanic inflatable slide. (Larger image here.) I'm not sure if I'm appalled or amused, actually. Titanic inflatable slide. Okay!
- A post arguing why Steven Moffat is not a misogynist, with debates in the comments. Hmm. Seems to be the topic for discussion at the moment in Doctor Who fandom. I'm just hoping people can have a sane debate about it without making it derail into shipwars and grudges and all that blues.
- This story about a team scoring on itself to advance in a Cup cracks me the hell up. They then went on to defend the opposing team's goal. Gotta love some of the crazy things you find on Snopes.
- Norway had a solar ecplise. It was only partial here, but still something to see.
- Also in Norway, lightning strikes over 50 people. (!!!)
- One killed in French mini-tornado. (!!!)
- Still no interest in Twilight, but reading the reviews over at Amazon is a bit fun. Seems very divided into either deep hate or deep love. The hype for it probably plays in there. Anyone on my flist read it yet and willing to divulge an opinion?
Anything awesome going on with you?
