Mum: (of a pub in Britain) They had a bar made out of Richard III's bed.
zeborahnz: Did she go back when she was finished serving?

Mum was just in my room, where we had the following conversation:

Mum: What are those?
Me: Oral syringes for giving my rabbit medicine.
Mum: *laughs a little*
Me: *not sure why* They keep giving them to me so I have about five.
Mum: I shouldn't be such a cliche suspicious mother.
Me: Oh, yeah, they're for shooting up. I use oral syringes because needles are so passe.
Mum: Well I couldn't see what they were!

Staff at the bottle store recognising you - good customer service or a statement about how often you're there? HMMMMM.

I have confirmed that there appears to not be any lionhead rabbits in New Zealand. This makes me sad. That's three small breeds that never made it here that I'd otherwise like to get - American Fuzzy Lops, Polish and Lionhead. Seriously, lionheads have short fur all over their body except for long hair on their heads. How awesome is that?

Instead if I get a second rabbit I suspect it will be a light coloured Dutch or minilop (fawn or blue with white for Dutch and god only knows for a lop because they come in every colour ever). Or a Dutch x lop, since I have actually seen more than one litter of those advertised and mix breeds can be healthier than purebreds.

I've written nothing today, but it's not 4pm yet and I'm not cooking or cleaning tonight so I should still have time to do stuff. I'm coming up on the dramatic climax of the thing I'm writing, and once it's finished I'm going to go on to something else, so really I guess it's NaFicWriMo.

I apparently have the same birthday as St Aloysius. Also Chingy, Matthew Gray Gubler and the BTK killer.

IT'S LIKE SIX DAYS UNTIL NEW DR WHO EPISODE.

On fandomsecrets today over on LJ:

Song: Robots (Humans Are Dead)
Artist: Flight of the Conchords
Notes: It is the distant future... the year 2000. And finally, robotic beings rule the world!

Making this vid made me happy.

Settled down to give my rabbit his painkillers this morning and he clearly remembers from yesterday what the syringe is for. He clambered into my lap, shoving his face in my hand all PUT IT IN MAH MOUF and actively sucked on the end when I offered it to him. I lolled so hard. He doesn't actually seem to be in that much pain either, he was happily running around before I gave it to him.

DO YOU KNOW MILES THORSEN?

Subject: Ardor in, routine out! (I totally read this as "arbor")

Body: Providing her with a high voltage of your desire! This is what you gonna do tonight!

A long, long time ago...
I can still remember
How my Gmail used to make me smile.
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could delete that spam from France
And, maybe, it'd be empty for a while.

But this afternoon made me shiver
With every reload I'd deliver.
error message on the screen;
I couldn't help but scream

I can't remember if I cried
Couldn't read the world web wide,
But something touched me deep inside
The day that Gmail died.

So bye-bye, to my LJ replies
Firefox said it loaded Reddit
But was 404 denied.
And them Redditors were posting pun thread replies
Singin, "Google til the day that I die.
"Google til the day that I die."

Did you play that Facebook game,
Or do you think that they are lame
If your friends wall tells you so?
Do you believe in settings and styles,
Does the fox in the teahouse make you smile,
And can you teach me set my iGoogle up just so?

Well, I know that you're off twittering
`cause I saw your tweets about pointless things
Like the mold you picked off your shoes.
Twitter is such a giant snooze.

I was a lonely MySpace whore
With a pimped out profile and friends galore,
But I knew I was out of luck
The day that Gmail died.

I started singin,
bye-bye, to my LJ replies
Firefox said it loaded Reddit
But was 404 denied.
And them Redditors were posting pun thread replies
Singin, "Google til the day that I die.
"Google til the day that I die."

look! at! my! bunny!


I had the realisation today that I'm a ridiculous person. Yeah.

If your characters had to teach a class at Hogwarts, which class would they choose?

Astra would pick Charms, or in BW-era the household magic course. Benjy, obviously, Arithmancy (or Healing, if in an era or fanon where that's an option). Pepper I think would take great delight in teaching History of Magic Reenacted by Dinosaurs. You know, for the boring bits.



AND I SHALL CALL IT.... THIS LAND!

David: So they have no unmounted police?
Stephen: Well I dunno--
David: That must be difficult on raids in small flats. 'Ow, my head!'
Rich: You should see the squad cars. They're a mess, David, they are a mess.
David: Try and chase a heroin addict up a small staircase on a horse, it's ridiculous.
Alan: All the heroin addicts would know to head for the small staircases.
David: It's like trying to police a country with daleks.
Rich: Which would never work with the disabled access we have now, the daleks can get everywhere.
David: Are you saying that you think that disabled access is a dalek conspiracy?
RIch: .....Yes. That is exactly what I'm saying.

I really kind of want this.

BL is made of crack. Pepper's losing it, which makes me super happy, and there's babies in the post and Rufus freaking out and the DMLE babysitters club and Lily's allcaps spazz attack.

Order of the Phoenix is on tv and I'm picking at it a bit. There are sixth years in the DA who could not cast expelliarmus. How did they pass their OWLs?

I got mats for my rabbit. They're super rugged and he was like "SHITBEARS! NEW STUFF!" And all rugs and mats were half price. Woot. The supermarket had no parsley but I found some mint.

4:29:12 PM Ali: hahahahaha seriously, the order thought they were setting a trap and really they're just providing cannon fodder

4:29:20 PM Me: Pepper's gonna walk back into the castle covered in dirt going "the mandrake cannons were a stupid idea."

4:29:38 PM Ali: hahahahahahaha, Bella hopes so!

4:29:50 PM Me: Pepper: I AKED ALL THOSE FUCKERS!

4:30:04 PM Ali: ljlkjdfaskjl;adfskjldsaf

This log is pretty fucking hilarious.

PATRICK PRANK CALLED A MOB BOSS. IT WAS FUCKING AWESOME.

It was complete coincidence that I saw this article at all in the actual hardcopy paper - another headline on the page caught my eye while I was waiting for my hot chocolate to hotinate, and then I glanced down and read this too. Came back to my computer to find it on the website:
