Sep. 24th, 2006 04:28 pmBugger. You have no idea how many times I've started this entry and lost it because I was stupid and started surfing for stuff on the Treaty for the Protection of Broadcasting Organizations, and then closed the window without thinking. Incidentally, thanks to Anne for the link to that, 'twas very helpful.
Erm... now that I think about it, there's not an awful lot to say. Went to the bookstore Friday and got Dante's Divine Comedy, Twelfth Night, and another copy of Silver on the Tree because I was seduced by the cover art. Which happens a lot more than it ought. I almost got Tale of the Body Thief because the cover matched the trilogy I already have, and had to forcibly remind myself that I actually didn't particularly like that book. Sigh.
(I liked Twelfth Night, but not nearly as much as Hamlet- all the aborted plans and changed minds got confusing quickly, and I wasn't entirely comfortable with what happened to Malvolio in the context of the play being a comedy.)
Also went shopping today and got a pair of deliciously long black jeans, as well as this gorgeous silver-and-freshwater-pearl pendant, which is so textured and three-dimensional that it looks like the silver grew around the pearl like coral. I have it on a sheer white ribbon around my neck right now, and it's heavy and comforting. I decided to keep my three-inch-heel lace-up boots, if only because everything else out there was stilletos, and I am simply not that stable. Even in a size 11, the base area-to-height ratio is so far off, I'd be swaying like one of those crazy Japanese skyscrapers in an earthquake.
I'm trying to cut down on my sugar intake, on the basis that it's the only unhealthy thing I eat in large quantities. My body can't quite decide whether to be twitchy or lethargic, and my mood is... somewhat mercurial at the moment. Not exactly "Pixie Stix call to me from across the abyss!" yet, but I'm certainly testing some limits.
New icon time! (ETA: LJ is being bitchy and won't upload my Supernatural icon. War is declared.)
Have a Supernatural drabble that will be ready by Thursday for the new season.
