So there's this volcano erupting in southern Iceland, and there's a live webcam. And it's dark over there right now, but there's. Um. Glowing. OMGWTFLAVAPLUME. Go see quick, before it quiets down again! (Is very pretty in the daytime too.)
Today I put a rack on the back of my bike and did laundry. Laundry in the city is much easier with a bike, a rack, and bungee cords than none of the above. Yay! Putting the rack on was a pain though, because my bike was not particularly designed with a rack in mind. Bah. But I made it work.
Haven't had time to look at lgbtfest prompts yet. I probably won't claim any, but it's always fun to look.
I have been watching the last couple Third Doctor serials. In the serials set on Peladon there's this character, the Federation Ambassador Alpha Centauri (I think that's his *name*, not his home), who is awesome. The character's coded female to the extent that a giant six-armed one-eyed cucumber with foot-fins can be gender-coded (voice and mannerisms are stereotypical tv-feminine) but uses male pronouns. And oh my goodness Sarah Jane Smith/Alpha Centauri OTP. I wish I'd thought of that in time for prompts, because someone needs to write it, preferably set during SJA. Watch the first 30 seconds.
I'm only halfway through Planet of the Spiders, so I haven't seen the regeneration yet, but I would like to note that Episode 2 contains the most ludicrous vehicular chase sequence in the history of ever.
( ludicrous chase sequence under here )
I have so much reading & writing to do this weekend ... *moan*
