Picowrimo & dead gnomes
Dec. 4th, 2006 09:44 pmUm. Yes. That ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
picowrimo thing? I've just posted the Schuldig Monologue over at wk_fiction. It did, at least,break my self-consciousness over writing rude words (if not, y'know, actually showing people what I wrote).
But anyway. That was 2,177 words. Then there was the Abba filk (308) and a few drabbles.
The (as yet unposted) first piece was 250, and there's a stalled sequel to the Monologue that's currently 527. Not to mention a half-completed WK mood theme. So, that's 2,785 posted words or 3,562 total. Not quite the 5,000 target, but I'd neglected to remember how hellish work gets from the middle of November.
The dead gnomes? Very peculiar (but funny).

May. 17th, 2006 02:52 pmWhy is it I can listen to Rammstein followed by Dolly Parton (Media Player on shuffle) quite happily, but Apoptygma Berserk followed by Whitesnake makes my head go "WTF?"?
Skim reading can be bad for your (mental) health. Especially when the terms "the Spark Diet" and "pounds" merge into "the Spunk Diet".

Waiting for No. 3...
Mar. 14th, 2006 08:32 pmToday started fairly normally. Since getting home, though...
Either I have DIY fans for breaker-and-enterers, or the cats have Plans. My adjustable spanner is on the chair next to the computer - *not* on the bookcase at the other side of the room, where it usually lives.
I went downstairs to stir tea, leaving Laibach's cover of "Get Back" playing. I came back to the Beatles' original - at almost exactly the place in the song I'd left.
If these things come in threes, I think I'd better batten down the hatches & avoid all external stimuli.

Where sheep go "Moo".
Feb. 7th, 2006 10:23 pmGood grief, I have insanity on both sides of my family.
The scene - showing off my knitting to the Parent People & pointing out the mostly-Merino-some-microfibre-and-some-cashmere fibre content of the wool.
Me - I can't wear any wool other than Merino. It doesn't agree with me.
Dad - Why? Does it make you go Moo?
Me & Mum - O.o
