1. Slightly peculiar week, actually. Family funeral of an uncle I hadn't seen in ten years or so. Feel slightly guilty that I wasn't sad that he was dead so much as I was slightly miffed at the prospect of having to spend an afternoon with a room full of people who equate not being catholic with having an especially offputting STD.
Also slightly miffed that I apparently don't own any black clothing any more. Apparently I'm what happens when goths grow up and start wearing things with yellow sunflowers patterned on them. Ah well, as I couldn't remember if he was the uncle who was the pervert or not I figured dark grey would do.
2. Watched Scotland - England in the rugby this morning. Scotland lost, which is oddly reassuring in the same way as night following day and the Earth continuing to rotate on its correct axis is. All systems functioning normally, etc. I have worked out what is so irksome about the England rugby team, it's that they're 80% dirge to 20% shocking brilliance. This will of course not stop me from spending the week before the quarter finals learning the lyrics to the French national anthem.
3. So,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
anjali_organna is doing this cool thing where she gets people in fandom to answer questions about writing, and due to what one can only assume is a terrible shortage of sensible people to talk to she talked to me. So, I am here talking about writing (just a tiny bit) and tea and books and why Donna and Morgana are my favourites (quite a bit more) should that be of interest to anyone.
5. The BBC informed me that today was the sunniest October 1st since records began. This was news to me as it was raining torrentially and there was a fog so thick you couldn't see your hand in front of your face. Sometimes I wonder if they realise there are people in Scotland or if they think we've ceded it to the dragons and sea monsters.
Okay, it's possibly I am slightly more miffed about the rugby result than I let on. It's not actually the fault of the English that we have terrible weather. Probably.
French. National. Anthem.
6. I watched the finale of Doctor Who ( The Wedding of River Song )
7. I accidentally watched Merlin, mainly because it was on after Doctor Who, ( whatever this one was called )
