Dear shaysdays,

zero-gravity sex is proving somewhat difficult to write. I may have to post it late, such as tomorrow.

Weightlessly,
active_apathy.

Today was also a boring day. So, I read the second part of The Amulet of Samarkand, marking amusing spots with a thin slip of paper.

There's a forest of little slips of paper poking out of the middle of the book.

To quote one in particular - not spolierish, but cut and in white just in case:

The imp gave a forlorn cry. 'O brilliant ray of starlight, it grieves me, but I do not know! May I be toasted for my ignorance! I simply carry messages, worthless as I am. I go where I'm directed and bring replies by return, never deviating from my course and never pausing - unless I am fortunate enough to be waylaid by your good grace and squashed under a stone.'
-Jonathan Stroud, The Amulet of Samarkand, p 159

And thus is it amusing. And it's making me do that thing where I read books a little bit at a time to try to make them last longer.

It was hot today. I see that the weather has responded to my earlier comments with great enthusiasm, but didn't pay much attention to my comments about pacing itself. Grr.

Also, I see there's much drama about everyone getting subdomains. While it's upsetting to see, I do feel the need to point something out - it's possible to write a Firefox bookmark that'll painlessly take you to whatever slice of LJ you desire. You:

Go to Bookmarks -> Manage bookmarks.
Click 'New bookmark'
Give the bookmark a name
For 'location', put in http://%s.livejournal.com
For 'keyword', type lj
Optionally, type in a description

And then, whenever you want to look at a journal, simply type lj username in the location bar, and it'll painlessly send you to the journal, comm or feed of your choice. Which reminds me, I wanted to see if something might be useful, since I had a theory.

~~( Here be polls. )~~ Here be the poll, because LJ was silly. Grr.

Also, 11:59? I ~~win~~ nearly lose at daily entries.
