PS http://www.drhorrible.com/ is awesome.

Sorry no update...will post one soon. All is well, it's just been busy here!

Still alive. No time to read back over everyone's posts...hope everyone is well!
Will make a long post about the past few weeks tomorrow!

I have more stuff to take with me than I have bag space or hands for!

Hi there people who have me as a friend but who I haven't friended yet or have removed from my friends' page for some reason. If you can see the post right after this one, then this isn't you!)

I'd like to be reminded who you each are, why you've friended me, or where we know/knew each other from. Then I can edit my friends' page accordingly.
Thanks!

Censorship gone wild!

"It's not just the books under fire now that worry me. It is the books that will never be written. The books that will never be read. And all due to the fear of censorship. As always, young readers will be the real losers." — Judy Blume

This: http://members.tripod.com/~Motomom/index-3.html is pretty gruesome and weird.
I didn't manage to look at all the pictures before I had to admit that it was too gruesome for me.

Also, the girl who did the voice for Ducky in The Land Before Time was murdered by her father? o.O That's depressing :(

I'm playing Creatures 3 again. I downloaded all the free norn packs but there's some which aren't available any more (the store is currently down until the Gameware people get round to putting it back up) so if anyone out there happens to have Toxic, Treehugger, Bondi and Hardman norn breed packs somewhere on their harddrives I would be eternally grateful to receive them :P
I actually bought them at one point but I'm not sure what I did with them :(

It's been a while since I've been excited and impatient for a new computer game to come out. They've all been very 'same-y' recently in my opinion, and nothing really drew my interest away from WoW.

But SPORE...omg I want to play that right now. I am horribly impatient for it to come out, and I really hope it lives up to my expectations :D

Haha what's with the Mythbusters guys being on CSI last week? :P

(PS Yes, I am a total nerd)

I bought a pair of Ariat Springbuck riding shoes before I left the US and wow...these things are so comfy. I wore them when I travelled because I didn't have space for them, and they are great travel shoes. Sturdy, with a zip instead of laces and didn't make my feet hurt like usual when I had to lug my bags around on the Underground.
Should have bought two pairs! One for riding and one for just using as my everyday shoes!

Would it be weird now, after a year and a half, to try to get in touch with some of my teachers from school?

Dear Universe,

Please send me GBP250,000 for this: http://www.smallholdingwales.co.uk/smallholding-brynambor.php

Thanks!

With much love, Anna.



(PS: Without me losing any loved ones or becoming paralysed or other bad things kthx.)

When I was growing up, if you bought full-fat milk (which we did, and still do) you got a bunch of cream at the top. I don't see that in milk nowadays, ever...I miss the creamy goodness at the top of the bottle!

Damn homogenization :(

Wow, I'm watching Animal Cops: Houston right now, and they're removing dogs from a breeding facility - these dogs are American Bulldogs. They're so skinny that they look like Boxers in the face :(

War Kittens!



Sausages...please...SAUSAGES!

Mmm Sour Cream bread - probably not the healthiest homemade bread ever but omg so good!

So I thought art and art history textbooks were expensive.

Then I did a search on Amazon.com for 'Astrobiology' and 'Evolutionary Biology'.

o.O



(PS Yes, my interests are wide and often quite obscure).

Also, there's some really strange things listed on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/JL421-Badonkadonk-Land-Cruiser-Tank/dp/B00067F1CE/
http://www.amazon.com/Relaxman-Relaxation-Capsule/dp/B0006MWV86/

And http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1905794029/

I totally missed that Arthur C Clarke died last week.
