I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.

Thanks For Nothing, And For Something

Bought a refill for my foundation and a new compact thingy this afternoon and, just as the shop assistant is handing me a receipt for the $61 I'd spent, she says, "By the way, we're having a special promotion next week. If you buy something you'll get free gifts; creams and lipsticks."

"And how much would I have to spend?" I ask.

"$60," she says with a wide smile.

You'll be pleased to know I resisted the urge to hex her.

A request for my well-read flist: I was watching the The First Tuesday Book Club and one of the commentators mentioned that The Collector by John Fowles has the best last line ever written. Google has failed me; has anyone read it? Could you tell me this fantastic last line? Don't worry about spoiling me, I know the characters and plot. And if you want to tell me how it ends, go for it. I doubt I'll get a chance to read it and I don't mind being spoiled.

ETA: snakeling came through for me.

Oh, Yeah?

I'm Wondering...

2009-09-04T06:23:53Z

...is it humanly possible for a person to eat an entire 400g bar of Toblerone in one sitting? I just ate two pieces and feel slightly queasy, but it looks so tempting...

...if you flicked a man in the nipples with his own suspenders, would he be turned on or disgusted?

...when I'm going to write again. Short answer - not while the Snarry and McShep fests are on, that's for sure. I can't write when I have so many fics patiently sitting by in tabs. Long answer - when I can motivate my lazy fingers to type. I was pondering my USO AU last night as I was falling asleep (as you do) and came to the conclusion that, even though Rodney as a disgruntled piano player in a USO show and John as a cocky fly boy would be brilliant, what would be even more brilliant is a McShep/M*A*S*H pastiche. Rodney would be the eccentric, cranky surgeon, Ronon would be stern yet laconic (when drunk!) surgeon that bunks with Rodney and helps him to make the still, Teyla would be 'Easy On The Eyes' Emmagen, the beautiful head nurse that will beat you to a pulp if she hears you calling her easy and John would be the cocky...helicopter pilot! Who would keep popping into the 4077 to drop off wounded and chat up Rodney.

...is it a sign that I'm running out of original(ish) ideas in a fandom when I revert to AU's and pastiches? Snarry Wuthering Heights! McShep M*A*S*H! When I start talking about Supernatural crossed over with 'So You Think You Can Dance' it's time to give me a slap.

...exactly how hairy is John Sheppard's groin? And what sort of hair? Is it thick and sleek, like the pelt of a seal? Is it patchy, after that terrible shaving incident that occurred when he and Rodney were trying to 'spice things up'? Is it bushy and spiky and does his half-hard penis poke out towards Rodney, much like the tongue of an angry echidna?

Four Things I Liked About The Latest Warehouse 13 Episode

2009-08-06T11:12:40Z

1. a) JOE! I've missed you and your elfin ears and your weird pauses. I'm also still digging the wisps of grey in your sideburns. Please ~~do me~~ continue to appear on TV shows ~~where I can pretend I'm Rodney McKay and you are doing me~~.

b) It must be written into his contract that he can only play characters that have daddy issues.

c) His hair is wondrous and can even withstand the ravages of supernatural fire.

2. Saul Rubinek. What a great character actor. I've always enjoyed his performances in whatever shows I've seen him in.

3. I misheard JFlan's character's name as 'Jeffery Beaver.' This is very amusing and important and probably should have been number one on the list.

4. a) I can't remember what number four is. Let's pretend it's that I liked the lead actress's pink top.

b) Or it could be me wondering, 'Since when do people with badges kill bad guys with an arrow in the chest?'

Okay, So...
