There are so many, many things she could be showing him...

... but I think not knowing just makes even funnier. ^__^ I mean... it must be something v. good/v. bad to get that reaction. And despite the plotbunnies it's giving me, I have no time to do anything with them. But... I really wanna know what could've got a reaction like that.

Anyway, ficlet O didn't appear last night because... I was wandering lost in the wilds of mini-Writer's Block and asked Merc for a drabble plotbunny to give me a direction. That was at around 1am. At 5:30am I was emailing her the resulting 2000+ word fic. And now I've slept till half one and am still tired but the dad had the radio on in the next room and it kept waking me up so I gave up and staggered out of bed. I am going to be knackered tonight - I think I'd better have a nap at some point.

Amazon? Is an asshole. When you promise you'll deliver stuff before Christmas, it would be nice if you could dispatch it BEFORE DECEMBER 22ND. Morons. And they haven't even shipped it yet and it's the free delivery so there's not a snowball's chance in hell it'll get here in time. Gggrrrr. Stupid Amazon. I think in future I'm going to do all my shopping in mid-November on play.com, get it sent ready giftwrapped if possible then just sit back and enjoy Christmas. Because I went Christmas shopping with rainy_roz yesterday and the amount of money I've spent since I got home is truly depressing. I must've spent somewhere in the region of £200 on Christmas I think and it's not even over yet - I still need to get some nice earrings for the woman. Next term I'm having a strict budget and sticking to it, no matter what. I'm supposed to be saving money and it's just not happening. Sigh.

Plus all I've had for about the last month is stories from people about how cold Canada is whenever I mention it. REALLY? I thought that was the hot kind snow they were having at the moment. -_- But it did remind me of another thing I'd have to budget for; proper clothes for the weather which would cost me a fair bit. liroa15 is I did come would it be better just to bring a few clothes and go on a shopping spree over there do you think, or are clothes just as expensive over there as they are here?

And to conclude, I've said it countless times before, but Andy Roddick fangirls are still one of the freakiest things on the Internet. o_O Sure Feds' fans can get a little overenthusistic sometimes but his crazy fangirl count is minimal when compared to Andy's. *shudders*

And suddenly the phrase 'Fangirl Hunting Season!' popped into my head and I'm trying to work out if it's a plan or just lack of sleep talking...

Rain in Japan is like being in a ... I don't know how to describe it. But their gutters are at least 6 inches deep, and when it rains the water hits the concrete with such force that it soaks your pants up to the knees. We were there in the summer and it was cold, well comparatively at least.

As for persistant, the cold here is quite persistant, it will sometimes hang around until April. -20C or rain? I think I'll take the rain.

Dude. That's some rain. :) Lake District rain can be like that, but not all the time. Welsh rain - though we had a mini-monsoon last night - tends to be heavyish and go on and on and on...

But rain soaks you and trickles down your neck and is miserable. Plus we get it all year round, summer and all. At least cold you can just add extra layers or go inside and get warm without having to change soaked clothes. ^__^ I'd almost rather have the cold but having never experienced it, I'll withhold judgement until I have I think...

You better do that because after -25C as a high everyone just wants spring, where temperatures might even rise above zero.

*nods* Duly withholding judgement. ^__^

Good. It's snowing again here, you know. And it's -18C.
