LJers have discovered the secret of ENTRIES!

My day was, again, boring. I was going to wash my dogs today, but it was overcast and antiwarm. The weather seems to have fallen into a pattern: WarmwarmhothothothotHOT.... tired now. Coolcoolcool... better! WarmwarmHOT!

Overall, it's about as fun as BASE jumping with a little paper cocktail umbrella in place of a parachute - ie, not.

In other news, umm... I was bored enough to play the very first of the Civilization games, where diplomacy comes down to...

"GIVE OR WE DESTROY!"
"Destroy? Ha. Pull the other one."
"Oh, ok. We still love you!"
"BFF. Totally."

Apparently, the Romans - led by the miraculously unaging 6000-year-old President Yarr - colonised a whole other planet last year, and the Americans were annihilated by the Egyptians sometime in 1048.

Lastly, I still haven't had any luck on the whole zero-gravity sex thing*. This upsets me some, partly because it's being a pain to write and partly because it delays everyone else's little slices of text. So, what will happen is this: I'll break the rules - just a little bit, but broken all the same - to write other requests, then post the zero-gravity sex when it's actually written. Hopefully, this isn't greatly distressing - shaysdays is taking great pride in the effects of her request for zero-gravity sex**, as can be seen here.

*I maybe could've phrased this better.
**It's hard to put 'request' and 'zero-gravity sex' together in a sentence without that happening.

Meh, I'm not all that keen on it in particular; I apologize if the comment came out sounding strident, yours was just one of the first posts I got to this morning and I was still filled with a surfeit of procrastinatory energy and a loathing for getting on with my work day. It was mostly an excuse to find a link to the zero-G blob experiments, which I vaguely remembered seeing quite a while ago -- I don't actually pretend to have anything serious or useful to say about the Unnamed Writing Challenge :)

Fair enough. I think I'm coming close to finding a way to write it, but this one will probably take actual *research* for it to be plausible.

Snowmen and disco pants need no research.

The link to the freefall blobs is useful - it's much, much better than finding some dry piffle about how some obscure principle of mathematics mixed with physics, chemistry and palmistry can tell us just how a water droplet toddles about the place when it doesn't have any pressing engagements with the ground.
