HELLO FRIENDS. I COME TO YOU TODAY WITH GOOD TIDINGS. It is the story of a guy called Edgardo, A Guy Called Squid, and an RPG forum/world full of jerks.

Read it, you won't be disappointed

I haven't posted in a while, essentially because most of what I'm doing is playing Minecraft. Which is a game that's very attention-consuming but also probably very dull to talk about. I have a house and a furnace and sheep and cows and pigs and 4 wolves, one of whom I bred from the other wolves. They have names but not different coloured collars, because apparently that's not available in the PS3 version. I just have to remember which one's Simba, Kimba, Benny or Jenny. Also I am growing melons and sugar cane and I planted some rosebeds. It's all very good. Eventually I hope to get onto some proper mining. And crafting. Although I presume a lot of that's not available in the PS3 version either. Hmph.

In TV news...um. I hate David from Emmerdale. I always felt like I should, and now I really do. Fuck you David. And I caught a bit of Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars over Christmas, and it was genuinely awful, but Crichton and Scorpius continued to be gay so I kind of got back into that fandom.

And in Coronation Street )

Oh, and I finished Yonderland, the Sky show from the Horrible Histories team. I quite liked it, and I hope they get a new series. Also I kind of shipped Debbie/Negatus, but that's par for the course. I DIDN'T REALISE ABOUT SIMON FARNABY'S EYES UNTIL THEY PUT HIM IN WHITE MAKE-UP AND GAVE HIM ALL THE CLOSE-UPS. But now I do. I hope they get a second series. From what I hear it's been popular, so maybe.

Hello. I went to my parents' house, and to Scarborough. Except that in the usual style, me and mum and dad set off a bit late to my sister's house, and she had only just got up when we got there, so we didn't actually set off until about 11:30 on the Saturday. I wasn't that bothered though, as I got to spend some time with my new nephew, who is adorable. But it took 2 hours to get to Scarborough, and then we wanted to eat before we got to the coast in case we had trouble parking, so we didn't actually get there till about 3 o'clock. And then we spent about half the time hiding in amusement arcades from the rain. I failed to win an Oscar the Grouch doll thing. Jack had his first go on the dodgems and won a couple of things in penny pushers, and later I had a knickerbocker glory, so it was all good. I do quite like Scarborough, and other slightly cheap seaside towns. We were going to go to the Sea Life Centre, but by the time the rain stopped enough to go find out where it was, it was pretty much the time it closed, or didn't let people in anymore or something, unfortunately. Mostly I noticed how many gollywogs there were for sale, which I thought was illegal now. And Jack went on some Iggle Piggle and Wild West Wagon rides. And then we pretty much came home. And that was our day in Scarborough.

I've been mostly in a John/Scorpius fugue of late. I can't believe no-one's written very much John/Scorpius. Spoilers )

It's been some weeks now, also, and people are still failing to write Obadiah Stane/Tony Stark fic. What's up with that?

I have to go to bed now for sleep, for work. Laters.

I hate that there are adverts in bus shelters now.

I've not been posting much because things have mostly been a mess of scheduling and attempting to plan. That Eden Project holiday in June is full up, so I was looking at how much/if I could sort something out myself. The cheapest way apparently involves spending 9 hours on a coach before and after the weekend. And I get a free walk with the wolves at the UK Wolf Conservation Trust thing I joined, which I wouldn't mind doing this summer, possibly with a guest if anyone I know is interested. And it turns out there's a Sea Life Centre in Birmingham, where there are also Krispy Kreme doughnuts, and I have a vague urge to pretend I'm underwater, so I wouldn't mind going there at some point. But my funds are running low again, so I might have to put all of that on hold for a while anyway.

In other news; My new bible. It's nice what turns up when you search for "Farscape Crichton Scorpius slash". Especially since Crichton/Scorpius slash doesn't tend to turn up.
