I wore shorts on Tuesday boyo. Don't test my commitment to freezing to death to avoid wearing pants when not at work.

Today it was just below freezing and I didn't have to wear my coat. I was so used to it being 0-5 degrees F (or -20 to -15 degrees C if you lack the freedom to understand F).

Today, I wore pants. Also yesterday. Yesterday I wore a shirt also. Three shirts, in fact. Three shirts, and a vest, and a jacket.

It's 2100 hours, 22 C (that's 72 F back in the 19th century), and I have my warm top on. Y'all are living on the wrong end of the planet, or not close enough to worry level, whichever. Large islands, eh, comfortably temperate.

Of course, we do get a few earthquakes. The odd proper tsunami. Occasional super-volcanoes that cover half the landmass in meters of liquid rock, but as they say, nowhere's perfect, and that's why we live in the middle of nowhere.

I have found a surprising number of gamers taking part in the local kink community. It's a pleasant surprise.

It's a surprise that nerds like sex with toys, plots and roles?

In retrospect it now seems obvious...

Tumblr is surprisingly good for writing inspiration, this is like the third thing a tumblr post has inspired me to write--and the second Harry Potter thing.

Basically I got to thinking "hey, what if Rowling had sorted her magic out before writing so portkeys and apparration existed when the Potters were killed?"

My Nightwish tickets just came in the mail ^_^

Count, I never thought I would say this: I'm envious of you right now.

i just have had handed proof to me that i am an irrevocable nerd with no imagination left whatsoever by my own brain in the form of an orwellian nightmare x.x
i basically dreamed a localized to my home city mash up of the x-men sentinel arc, marvel civil war and mirrors edge running the fuck away with some kind of important doodad . .

I got birthday presents this year! My domme/best friend/"it's complicated" got me a My Little Pony body pillow...

Really? What pony?

It could be Spike. You don't know.

Nah, it's not a pone dakimakura, it's g-rated. It has ponka, purplesmart, and bluefast on it. Even so, it's much appreciated since I don't often get birthday presents. I also got a fleece pone blanket and a cake (which had nothing to do with pone but it was delicious).

I am moving back to my old apartment next week!

This has been a stressful month so far, but most of my worries will be gone by the time I've moved and whatnot.

Ancient History wrote:This coffee-table book from S. T. Joshi and Metro Books is essentially an effort to provide a popular biography of Lovecraft. I...don't like this one. Lavishly illustrated and glossy, at 160 pages it's too short for a proper biography and too long for and wordy for a popular one. I know that sounds weird, but there it is. The picture-to-wordcount ratio is just off for me.

Can you recommend a better coffee-table book? One that would make a good gift to someone new to the Mythos.

You're not exactly spoiled for choice, but this one is pretty, if a bit vapid.

My Step-Dad unexpectedly died last Wednesday night. Just fell asleep and didn't wake up. He was 74 years old and pretty healthy.

Thankks. It's harder for my mom than for me, but it still sucks.

My car died. This makes me angry, as this is literally three days before payday and I don't have the $700+ that it looks like its going to cost to fix until Monday...
