It's official.
Nov. 3rd, 2005 08:35 pmI was rec'd by
thefourthvine; I can die happy.
Seriously. If I get run over by a bus tomorrow (possible; I keep forgetting to look the right way) it's okay, because I will be remembered as the person who wrote the sexy mouse-touching story. That is a legacy I am totally, totally cool with. Really. You can put it on my tombstone.
To tie this into RL, here's the other reason I can die happy:

If I have to die, I want it to be with my boots on; and if I'm dying with my boots on, I want it to be these. *g*
Finally, in honor of
ilgattopardo, I present:
The Marks & Spencer Pre-Made Meal of the Day
And today we have..."Chicken breast in a chunky tomato sauce with basil mash." Mmm, it's just like my mom's chicken with tomatoes and mushrooms...only nowhere near as good.
Now remember all those comments I was supposed to reply to yesterday? Yeah, well. Gonna go do that now. I think.

Heh heh, thanks! Mmmm, Marks & Sparks... They have them in Athens, too, but for some reason without the food hall! A bit like Ulysses without the city of Dublin, really.
I keep forgetting to look the right way
I've been so busy lately hopping between America, the British Isles and Europe (you can tell I'm a Brit at heart when I speak of "Europe" as a place one goes to) that I'm totally messed up, crossing streets, driving, you name it. Athens has got me into the habit of always looking both ways before I step into traffic -- not only are there random one-way streets all over the place, messing up the 'proper' way to look -- but all the drivers ignore them anyway! The best part about the Britain & Ireland is that the buses drive down city streets so narrow that the speeding death-machines are only about a foot clear of the pavement to begin with. Not a lot of margin for pedestrian error. Maybe it's their way of introducing a Darwinian cull of 'unfit' Americans?
Oh, and nice boots!

Oh, are the buses supposed to do that? And here I just thought they were trying to kill me. (There's a handsome reward. *g*)
