Because this looks like fun, and I'm easy--

A meme!

Name a character and I'll tell you three (or more) facts about them from my own personal pseudo-canon.

"It's really a pity Raven loves Moiraine. Otherwise he'd just kill her, and all our problems would be over."

It is Monday. Mondays suck.

Ergo--

Everyone likes to hear what we've done that others really enjoyed. Name your favourite post(s) or thread(s) of mine. Then post this in your journal and bookmark it for whenever you need a pick-me-up!
Had a meeting with a guy who is entirely unrelated to me vis a vis work and supervisory positions, and he had no giant corrections, mostly just suggestions as to where I need to be ready to defend my choices. Helpful. Uber-helpful. I even have a couple new endnote files, so yay!

Group meeting will be long and long and long, and I still have to fix part of my paper to incorporate terpolymers vs anionic polymers, but that will take . . . a half hour max once I have the conditions?

Then I can SEND IT to bossman and wait for commentary, etc.

*curls up*

Bleh. One day this will all be over. Really.

And in other news!

If you read this, if your eyes are passing over this right now, even if we don't speak often, please post a comment with a memory of you and me. It can be anything you want - good, bad, neutral, random, or whatever. When you've finished, post this paragraph on your blog and be surprised about what people remember.

I would totally do this meme, guys.

When we role play, we tend to pick up a variety of characters. They could be ones that we like, ones that we want to experiment with, or ones that we just end up making from scratch. Eventually, we come to associate with ( some of ) them in one way or another. Out of all the characters ( past or present ) I role play, pick out the one I am most like and tell me why you think so.

Except I'm pretty sure you'd all answer Raven.

So I'm gonna just assume, mkay?

Okay, okay, I lied.

I'm totally doing this meme.

I am running a bit late today, but should be on at approximately the time we discussed.

Stupid alarm.

*sigh*

And stupid piano tuner.
So.

I finished up Y: The Last Man through issue 53.

And OMG.

Curse you bimonthly.

Curse you a lot.
HAH. HAH.

Oven problem has been determined, and I go to Radio Shack tonight to find missing fuses.

Keep your fingers crossed, people. *knocks on wood*

Also I have The Decemberists stuck in my head. The ENTIRETY of the Crane Wife album in various snips and snatches, to be precise.

(Also our office printer is making disturbing noises and people will not stop using it. WTF.)

And, for your patience in sticking with me thus far, a meme!

Reply to this and I will...
1)Tell you why I friended you.
2)Associate you with a song/movie.
3)Tell a random fact about you.
4)Tell my first memory of you.
5)Associate you with an animal/fruit.
6)Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
7)In return, you MUST spread this disease in your lj.


(Okay, seriously. STOP USING THIS PRINTER. I AM FULL OF HATE.)
Give me one of my own stories (if you can FIND ONE), a [livejournal.com profile] milliways_bar thread, or a [livejournal.com profile] milliways_bar OOM, and a timestamp sometime in the future after the end of the story, or sometime in the past before the story started, and I'll write you at least a hundred words of what happened then, whether it's five minutes before the story started or ten years in the future.

(And no, I did not steal this variation from Sweeney and Emmy. Nope. Not me!)
Okay.

So.

I am being Brave this year and trying to do this Christmas card thing.

So if you want a Christmas/holidy/winter/hi friend card from me, stick your address in this post.

Comments are screened, of course.

Additionally, if you want MY address to send me cards and do not have it, comment here and I shall reply with my snail mail info.

Thanks!

SPN has been preempted by the Thursday night programming of CBS. Because the local CBS affiliate preempted their shows for football.

God damn you, Steelers.

God damn you.

Love meme!

Because sometimes it's good to spread the love.

Or something.

HA!

HA!

My proposal topic is chosen and DONE.

Now I must only add a few main references to the one-page thinger, and I am GOOD TO GO.

OMFG.

The relief I feel is enormous.

This, uh, is most likely due to the fact that last semester, at Consortium, my boss was at my table telling the story of a very good scientist in his group who had left the program because she could not think of an original topic for her proposal.

Dear god.

And, even if my current topic is not entirely workable (which all signs indicate it is, but--), I have bought myself time to find something BETTER.

THANK YOU UNIVERSE!

I have a car!!

It is all new and shiny and things.

And not ridiculously expensive.

And I no longer need to fear that I will be left alone at the side of the highway with a broken-down heap of junk beside me.

YAY!
Meme-ing up the joint, this week, and really wondering what, if anything, I am disturbingly mysterious about--

Is there anything that you want to know about me? And how I work? Apart from the fact that I am a scarily overworked grad student with an immense affection for music, books, and glitter?

*cough*

Except ixnay on the itterglay.

Yeah.

*g*

You know the drill, anonymous is a go, IP logging is off, and I reserve the right to screen/not answer if you hit on something particularly sensitive.
So, because I am bored, ohgod so bored and things . . .

Here is me on the music meme.

See? Me!

And now, back to making charts and graphs and describing my reaction conditions!

Yay fun.
