out_there: B-Day Present '05 (My Girls)
It's 3.41pm, and I just got back home about ten minutes ago, and I left the house at 7.40am yesterday morning. *g* I had such fun last night. Went Go-Kart racing, did Sumo wrestling, played Dead Zone (you know, you run around in the dark, wear packs with flashing lights and try to shoot each other?) and ate a lot of meat! (Although, not in that order.) Also had a Slippery Nipple, and that's quite a nice shot (Bailey's and... something... can't remember, too tired to care).

There were seven of us in total. We got there at 7.30pm, and didn't leave until 1am, so there's a reason I'm stuffed. I ended up crashing at a friend's place at 2.30am, slobbed around their place for a bit, got the train home, bought some juice and went to the library! *bg*

It's the book meme. It's got me thinking about books. Now, I don't own any books, I'm a library gal. (Well, technically, I have two, that were bought for a combined price of $2 at a library sale the day before I took the train/bus from Canberra to Melbourne, with the rationale it would give me something to read. Mind you, I haven't read either of them.) Now I have a new Terry Pratchett (Night Watch), a Nick Hornsby, and an Olivia Goldsmith (who wrote First Wives Club - and that book totally rules over the film). And, pride of place goes to The Titus Books (the Gormenghast series). Got the whole trilogy. (That's another thing I have to thank the meme for. I never even knew the mini-series had come from a book! *g*)

Of course, I could just go to bed and nap, but now I have books to read, Angel and WW to watch, and there's the 'net. Sleep may be overrated. *g*

Grrr, argh. Don't want to read Tham's SV survey. It's chocka full of spoilery goodness.

Meanwhile, I'm catching up on LJ. How the heck did I manage to get over 50 posts behind in under 24 hours? I mean, considering that my friends list is only 29 people, and quite a few of those have spent time travelling to visit [livejournal.com profile] lydia_petze this weekend... I'm not bitching, I'm just suddenly realising how much time I spend on LJ normally. *g*

*sniggers* Apparently, I'm Cypher ) Not sure why it amuses me, but it does.

i'm in ravenclaw!

Okay, really, I was expecting that. Basically, it comes down to those Kinsey types, and Ravenclaw is introverted and lead by their head. Thinking of introversion, when I mentioned last night that I was a Leo, a friends said I couldn't be, since I was "Stand-in-a-corner Girl". Heh.

Since I liked the book meme, here's the IMDB 100 Movies Meme: Cut for your reading pleasure... )

I do better on the movie list than the book list, I think. And I do far better on both of those than I do in the Locas Magazine top 100 Book Meme, yanked from [livejournal.com profile] sineala. I had to do all 100, because if I just did the fantasy books, I'd have highlighted about four. Locas Magazine Top 100 Books Meme )Wow. I like Fantasy and SciFi, but I really don't read a lot of it. I guess I just watch a lot of it. *g*

Now, I'm off to read all the interesting fics on my LJ Friends list. This could have something to do with why I have read a lot of great books. If it was a top 100 Meme of SV fics, I'd probably have read about 90%! *g*

ETA: Oh, and would you believe I forgot to mention that the SV boozefest fic, the cause of my suffering and procrastination, is finally finished and posted! Yay, me! (And yay, [livejournal.com profile] tboy for being patient enough to support me, even though I started it for the first round and was still late for the second! *sheepish grin*). It's here, Drunken Kisses.

Night all

Want a good laugh? Check out Te's Sugar and spice and... It's not slashy, but trust me, if you've seen X2, you're going to laugh.

Be wary of Xavier's threats. *g*

In other news, I'm going to bed. I'm tired, and I've caught up on LJ, so I'm off to watch the Bill. Oh, and Rowan Atkinson on Parkinsons tonight.
