SW:TOR is really rocking my socks off right now, AND I just learned Kingdoms of Amular is out in early February, and then ME3!

And in between that, the US release of the new ICE book is mid-Feb so I shall hopefully have a good February.

It has been proven beyond all reasonable doubt that the most powerful force on Wu is a bunch of messed-up Malazans with Moranth munitions.

Listening to Neil Gaiman reading various short pieces from FRAGILE THINGS (a book I adore!) on YouTube makes Monday INFINITELY better.

Just be glad that this is the first real cold snap that we have had this winter. And take comfort in the knowledge that I am sitting in my warm office while I type this.

I'm happy winter finally arrived. For a while there it looked like spring had come early.

Text chats with gf are getting less ' feeling akwardly odd' and more 'reminding me why I love this woman'.
Good times.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

One of my turtles, Tarquin, is a little under the weather and so he has to be dry-docked, kept dry, at the moment. Since I don't have a spare tank I'm just letting him wander around the house. I momentarily forgot this so when I walked past his tank just now and it was turtle-free I totally panic. Let me share -

*notices Tarquin isn't in his tank*
Where the....?

KALAM!!!!

*walks into loungeroom and sees Kalam sitting in middle of loungeroom*
*common sense starts to seep in*

Wait, you couldn't have gotten him out, you'd have fallen in and got wet for sure. Damnit! Tarquin where are you?

*proceeds to look EVERYWHERE for turtle, panic raising*

*looks at Kalam*
Don't just sit there help me find him. Come on! Kalam, come here. Come here! Kitty. Kitty?

*walks over and picks up Kalam, finds turtle*

Sometimes I think they do these things on purpose.

Not so much sitting, as curled up. It seems that so long as Tarquin is stationary Kalam is brave....the moment Tarquin starts moving though Kalam meows like a little bitch and runs away.

Show Kalam and Tarquin this, maybe then they'll get the idea.

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

I've always liked the video clip for Celebrity as well

Though the implied sex scene between Shatner and the old chick is kinda scary :S

The girls arrived last night and are settling in. Today is "desk and kitchenware-buying", tomorrow is "uniform and school fees" (no I won't post pics of the teenage girl in the Catholic school uniform you filthy bastards), then the stuff from Canberra arrives on Thursday ...
