Not-Quite-Typical LJerness. Now with 42% more meme!

Well, I've been drinking. Lots.

(Mostly out, with people and food, so no, there's no closet alcoholism happening here. And then in, with the same people, who've now shuffled off home. Point stands.)

And, after replying to many posts and comments, I have this to report: my typing is still perfectly good.

Stupid amounts of $SPIRITS and red wine seem to make the world a touch slower than usual, but they apparently don't make my drunk posts as fun as others'.

Could I maybe return the empty bottles and a printout of everything I've typed tonight, in order to get a refund for ineffectual drinkystuff on account of how I can still spell, punctuate, and write all proper-like? Discuss.



And now for something completely different: a meme with three-word answers. (Plundered from maggiebloome, if you're at all interested)

( Cut for meme! )

Shameless, Unofficial Community Advertisement

This is a community advertisement, and it's unofficial, and it's shameless, because many people reading this like writing but can rarely be bothered and I like the comm so if this is a really big run-on sentence do feel free to ignore it as unreadable not-quite-disclaimer text and then move on to actual entry content.

For those who played in 2005 (and for those who didn't), 600seconds is back for 2007. I'd have posted this sooner, but it's only tonight that I remembered to actually write something there, mostly because the prompt gave me a fun idea which kind of helped.

And there's that running-on again.

600seconds is a comm where you get a prompt each day, and then your mission (choose to accept self destruct five seconds so on so forth) is to spend ten minutes writing whatever you feel like. You don't have to finish, you just need to spend the ten minutes on writing. Prose, poetry, fact, fiction, essay, narrative, drabble or epic introduction - it's your choice, provided it involves things that look like words.

So, go. Join. Write. Have fun. Your participation makes the religiously-tolerant nondenominational literary Jesus look between the sofa cushions for his reading glasses.

From this morning's newspaper...

2007
THE YEAR OF ANNIVERSARIES

Thus screams the page, in a blue headline superimposed on a full-colour photomontage. Yes, it's 2007, the year of anniversaries. Just like 2006, I imagine, or 2005, or 2004 - and I'll bet that there's another one in 2008, and in 2009, and maybe even 2010.

See, dear newspaper, that's the cunning thing about anniversaries.

They happen every year.

Life soundtrack meme!

Borrowed from lesslikeyou and herekittykitty.

1. Open your mp3 library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, shortwave radio from Eastern Europe)
2. Put it on shuffle (or random or whatever else it gets called)
   
3. Press play
4. For every section of the movie, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool

So! ( Cut for meme. )

And there you have it. Wheeeee.
