Today's SJA and other animals
Thursday, 29 October 2009 21:45- SJA today was WONDERFULNESS, even more so than usual. ( spoilers and babble )
- Alert alert alert: Now Show tickets available! Anyone want to go?
- I read Earth Abides while I was on holiday (a book about a plague that wipes out almost the entire population of Earth, not exactly a cheery pick but the book pile must be obeyed) and am rather torn about it. On the one hand, it was very well written and developed, and the tone was nicely melancholic without being too depressing, but on the other hand, the attitudes towards gender, race and disability were, well, skeevy is putting it mildly. Ack.
- I have many things to do tonight and tomorrow, none of them were or are "make a new wallpaper for the laptop", and yet... The picture was posted on Shakesville a few days ago and as soon as I saw it I wanted a wallpaper of it, it is just a great image.
