Matador was in a bad accident today - another car smashed into our car just in front of the driver side door. Bloody airbags didn't deploy. Thankfully, Matador is okay - he has whiplash and was in serious shock for a time but he has improved heaps now. The other driver bit through is bottom lip and has some broken bones but the ambulance guys said he'll be fine. It happened on a corner where the sun shines straight down the road and often blinds people - apparently ours was the third accident in the past two days that had happened at the same time due to the sun - stupid east to west roads.

Now we have no car which means Matador won't be able to get to work which means no money - grrrr! Thankfully we have awesome friends who are able to help out - so we will be able to borrow a car for the time being and hopefully figure out a solution before we need to give it back.

Thanks also to Sombra who was really awesome when I called him a panic because I had no way to get to Matador - Thank you

Aw, that's awful Loki, send completely heterosexual hugs to Matador. And for yourself, completely friend-like. It'll turn out fine, you could say he actually dodged a bullet there.

Messing with my groove right now are Greece, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Ireland and the UK. Get your shit together, really. A bloody interesting year we're having.

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.

So there was this party last night that I didn't get an invite to. This does not come as a surprise to me, because I don't know the guy very well and I wasn't particularly fussed. What DOES confuse and anger me is that so many of my friends, who are in a similar situation, got the invite and had what appears to be a smashing time. I know, it seems kinda trivial but I really feel excluded and worse yet there doesn't seem to be a viable explanation for this. Fuck.

He randomly invited those people whose names more easily came to mind than others, no biggie. You'll live.

Such drama!

Haha yeah I'm feeling better about that now

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.

Hey there Loki, I hope Matador is feeling somewhat better by now. Shock is a tricky thing, and best not to mess around with it. Make sure he takes it easy for today at least.

Hope the situation (re: Health, Car, Work, etc) improves tomorrow.

If you have the right kind of insurance, the insurance company should be able to at least contribute towards, if not cover fully, a rental car.

What the fuck is wrong with these people?

Loki, I'm really sorry to hear that I hope you're all well, my auntie was in an accident a bit back and we kind of heard about it in that vauge rumourish way as it was happening and it was bloody terrifying, thankfully she was well.

They are following their 'cancel after 5 seasons' thing, much as they did with Farscape, Stargate (on sci-fi), and stargate atlantis.

Too bad they didn't give Stargate universe more than 1.5 seasons or w/e t got.

Keep watching it, its a great show, but yea, I posted a link in the tv thread about it.

Aww, f*ck, this whole rioting business in the UK really gets to me.. not just that I'm worried about malazans over there, it's also when I think about all those people whose houses and shops are destroyed and set on fire and who got injured and robbed I get incredibly sad and angry and I seriously want to punch those bastards who started it all and those copycats who just can't get enough

Yeah this whole crap across the UK is retarded. The worst part is a majority of those responsible will escape justice. When are police gonna be allowed to use brutal/extreme force?
