Gacked from muffinbutt because it looked like fun, and I'm feeling procrastinatory. Sleep means less time looking at my Wimbledon poster... *g*

[Poll #365497]

Also, it will distract me. I need to be distracted. I so very need to be distracted. I just went to the cinema to see 'saw'. Holy shit. It's... holy shit. Essentially, two men wake up in a room, with no memory of how they got there, chained to opposite walls. There's a corpse between them. Then they start to receive their instructions... It's an amazing film. WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME? Why have I not had people helplessly squeaking about it on my f-list? Go see it, so I can helplessly squeak in more detail!

In conclusion, Leigh Whannell is a god.

You know what?

Rigamarole is the best word ever.

Go forth and use it, dammit! Anyone who uses it in an entry today? Link me in the comments and I'll drabble for you. I'm computer rooming it tonight but what with summaries and such I really haven't the time to play; besides, been way too long since I've drabbled.

I'm also going to be going back through my journal and answering stuff I've forgotten to do. If I owe you anything and you're bitter about it, I'd much rather you left me a comment informing me of that fact (with as many insults as you deem necessary) than hunted me down and nailed me to the floor. What can I say, I'm quirky that way.

And I'm still taking questions if anyone wants to ask...

ETA: If you want a drabble let me know fandom/pairing/whatever, or if you want something about a random object... I dunno. *g*

chasing_laura -- Why is there a ghost in my 'puter?

I put it there. It's called Marco. A little friend for you because you're SO FAR AWAY. :(

ygrane -- If you could be anywhere, where would you be?

In the amazing Inca ruins they wander around in in 'the Motorcycle Diaries'. I guess. I'm not really that big on places, don't have ambitions to go to countries or whatever. I'd much rather meet people, so I guess my answer should be someplace with grand people. Someplace with you lot.

copinggoggles -- How did you get your hands on a Wimbledon poster?

I went to see 'Saw' at the cinema last night, and met a lovely young lady who's Littlest's new flatmate. She's a huge geek, one of the one-upmanship type, but still pretty good fun. We were discussing Paul and naked, and when we got into the cinema I toddled off to the toilet and she located a mini poster for me, which was terribly nice of her. I walked home in the rain with it zipped inside my coat so it wouldn't get wet, while showing no such concern for my hair. I'm a big geek. You want me to see if I can get you one, lady?

vivien529 -- How did you come up with the idea for Milliways?

I was drunk.

No, really drunk. Really really drunk. Almost paralytic. Ask Sophie and Sam- the poor dears were talking to me as I wandered about making a new community, laughing madly, and spelling terribly. I think it sprang from the fact that I have chracters I love that really don't have fandom enough to make an RPG about them worthwhile. So I decided to make one for everyone.

fer_de_lance -- What's the farthest from home you've ever been?

Actually? Or feeling? I think the farthest away I've been is Germany. Considering I live in England, really not so far. The farthest I've ever felt from home is being a twenty pound train fare away and being unable to afford it. Or spare the time from work. That's the position I'm in now, by the way- I've been home a grand total of four days since Easter, and I miss my mum. Next weekend. Can't bloody wait. Sometimes I need unconditional hugs. *g*

Okay, unfortunately the summaries took SO MUCH LONGER than I expected that there is now no time to drabble. HOWEVER. I have no uni tomorrow and shall therefore be here all tonight. And will drabble. And RP. Hurrah!

In the meantime, a meme.

Name a CD you own that no one else on your friends list does:

Big Rude Jake: Big Rude Jake.

Random big-band swing which is absolutely ace. If anyone wants a copy and would be willing to pimp something at me in return, let me know.

Name a book you own that no one else on your friends list does:

The Pornographer's Poem: Michael Turner.

WHY does no one on my f-list have this? It seems so very odd, considering how slashtastic most of the people I know are. It's a damned good book, written in a unique way. Michael Turner never fails to interest me, and I really wish I had more of his stuff.

Name a movie you own on DVD/VHS/whatever that no one else on your friends list does:

The Year My Voice Broke. Which I haven't actually watched, yet. My mate MightyTom gave it to me for my birthday last year.

Out of curiosity, does anyone own Beautiful Thing? Sweet British gay love story. I should really bring that back to Wales next time I'm home.

Name a place that you have visited that no one else on your friends list has:

Sandwich.
