Sniffle
Posted in Personal, Writing, james marsters on Mar 31st, 2008
I feel shitty, oh so shitty
I feel yucky and rotten today
I feel shitty
And somebody is going to pay.
I feel sneezy, kind of wheezy
It displease me how queasy I am
Though uneasy
Having sniffles doth dispose me to spam.
For the last week or so I’ve been laid low with the worst allergies I’ve had in years. Not […]

Which I think people should read and draw their own conclusions about.
Possibly I’m weird, but while I think this guy comes off like an arrogant jerk, he does seem to me to have some valid points. I’m really doubtful that a one-day content strike will accomplish anything, any more than those “Don’t buy […]
Little Sister, Part 6
Posted in Fic on Mar 17th, 2008
“Council wouldn’t want the likes of you back any road - too much trouble. But the next generation… how many of the Slayers Faith and Rupert cozened away from the Council are mums like you?” He took a swig of his beer, set the bottle down on the counter with a clink. His pale […]
Sunday night and I ain’t got nobody

Finally watched last week’s Torchwood. Meh. And I’m a sucker for that particular plot device, when it’s done right.
Sent part 6 of Little Sister off to the betas, and got a good start on part 7.
Must consider what to do for seasonal_spuffy and the lynnevitational. I wonder if I could just […]
It’s all in the marketing
Posted in LJ migration, gardening on Mar 15th, 2008
I’ve decided that I’m no longer going to say “My yard is full of weeds.” Instead, I will say, “My yard has a high degree of biodiversity.” Anyway, said weeds are mowed, except for the clover, which I always give a chance to go to seed before I cut it down. I […]
OK, that lost them a lot of points
Posted in Strikethrough07 on Mar 14th, 2008
As you’ve probably heard by now, LJ turned off the ability to create basic (free, no ads) accounts. All new accounts from now on have to be plus or paid.
Now, this was probably inevitable in the long run - few companies can afford to give it away for free, no matter what […]
I post, therefore I spam

Thanks to typographer, I’ve had “Rah Rah, Rasputin” stuck in my head all day. ::twitch::

Interesting
Posted in Strikethrough07 on Mar 8th, 2008
LJ’s new insect Russian overlords have posted a link to the draft of the new abuse policy on lj_policy and invited comment. While it’s still a work in progress and it’s likely that no policy will ever make anyone completely happy, I’m cautiously impressed, to the point that I’m reconsidering my decision to let […]
Thursday, and yet another episode of Barb!Brain Theatre
Posted in Barbverse, Personal, james marsters on Mar 7th, 2008
Kathy is off on one of her periodic Vegas trips with her mother, so tonight I eat fake pad thai and wish it weren’t Thursday. After working overtime for the last three or four weeks straight (I’ve lost track of time, a classic symptom of something or other), yesterday I said screw it and […]
