Back Fence Ramblings
- 00:25 Chatting to @dodgyhoodoo - somehow missed both @Mitchyuk and @CourtCat. Oops. #
- 00:25 @Mitchyuk Apparently sleeping pill OD was involved. #
- 01:22 ...OMG. Just ... OMG. I've been waiting to say this since fucking NOVEMBER, and now I finally get to say it! OMG. #
- 01:22 So ... yeah. I finished Chaos Magic. #
- 01:23 (Bar the editing, though a lot of that's been done on the fly. It's amazing what you pick up when reading aloud for podcast...) #
- 11:13 @modernevil Novel 'sample' = representative stand-alone chunk representative of book. Pick what spoke to you most. #
- 15:37 Oh look - a box. But @dodgyhoodoo wants unboxing photos so I can't open the box. Woe. #
- 15:39 @pickwick I'm torn between "The Way You Make Me Feel" and "Billie Jean". #
- 15:44 Ooh. I'm allowed to open the box! Woo! #
- 15:45 OMG. Just ... OMG. @jchutchins, this thing is bloody GORGEOUS! #
- 15:59 Just received the household copy of Personal Effects: Dark Art - @jchutchins and Jordan Weisman. It is a good day to be a bibliophile. #
- 17:21 Look and feel review of PE:DA up on #absurdistinc - bit.ly/uTQ5D - yeah, I'm a @jchutchins evangelist and make no apologies for it. #
- 21:07 @CourtCat Where are you, anyway? You haven't been on AIM in days. #
- 21:08 Coffee, stellar book, favoured Buffy eps playing as background noise ... heaven. #
- 21:18 My muse is tasering me again. I only finished the first book and my brain's on chapter 2 of the second one! #
- 21:25 @AlasdairStuart I read the book; movie is likely better as there's no first person narrative passive voice run-on sentence whining. #
- 21:49 @AlasdairStuart I want to rent the movie, if only for MST3K potential. Plus ... yeah. Vampire baseball = LOL. #
- 21:50 ...Now my brain is trying to make vampire cricket work as a concept. Have to be played in winter, though, given test match length. #
- 21:51 (The sport, not the insect. Though the vampire cricket-bug would've made the Disney Pinocchio a LOT more interesting... #
- 21:52 Y'know: "Sure I'll help you become a real boy! I'd get splinters in my teeth otherwise and toothpicks are for AFTER dinner.") #
- 22:43 Heh; thanks to @AlasdairStuart and bloody Twilight, I now want a new hashtag: #vampiresports #
- 22:45 Currently we've got baseball (via SMeyer), cricket and bowls. Me? I wanna see vampire polo. On vampire horses. #vampiresports (RT for #-tag) #
- 22:47 @nezumisama Oh, is that where the sound of Armageddon is coming from? I thought someone was blowing up Waitrose. #
- 22:49 Part of me wants to get hyped up on a full pot of extra-strong coffee and work-read-write all night. Well, there's no one home to annoy... #
- 23:50 #vampiresports Because the idea of anything with super-strength playing this game terrifies me in the good way ... vampire hockey. #
- 23:51 Unfortunately, this does not fit in with @AlasdairStuart-theme of IN THE RAIN! Somehow, IN THE SNOW! doesn't strike the same tone. #
- 23:53 ...It's a Piro from Megatokyo thing, maybe ... Sad Vamps in Snow? That's emo enough. #
