Oh Berlusconi, you're just made of fail, aren't you. Says he about the earthquake survivors:
But Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi appeared to brush aside the dire conditions facing survivors during a visit to one of the camps. "They have everything they need, they have medical care, hot food...," he said in an interview with a German television station. "Of course, their current lodgings are a bit temporary. But they should see it like a weekend of camping."
*facepalm* Weekend of camping? They've just lost their homes, been traumatized, possibly lost people they know and are in fear of aftershocks, of which there have already been several - that ain't like no camping I've been on. Berlu, are you trying to weasel your way into 'soulnemesis' status here now that I retired Bush from it or something?
Ugh.
In brighter news, have written over 5000 words on my Doctor Who/BSG crossover and am almost done. Just gotta fiddle a bit with the draft and settle on a title, which can be such a pain. So a question for people who know Latin out there - what would 'doctor in the box' be in Latin? I'm considering making a play on 'deus ex machina', but my Latin is non-existent.
Funny thing, writing a story. It so often evolves as you're doing it, going unexpected places and sometimes ending up as something a little bit foreign to even you.
Speaking of fanfics, return of the 'I'm going to publish Twilight fanfiction!' saga of DOOM. Oh dear. There's dumb, and there's that.

Now my dear darling cat, I do adore you very much, which is why I bought that tasty fish for you and why I let you sleep in my bed with me. But in 'Ways to Wake Camilla Up Because I Want Something', I would very much appreciate it if you took 'poking her breasts with this paw with the claws out' off the list. Because ow.
How are you all on this Wednesday?
