For the twelve years that I’ve known him I’ve treated him like a powerful creative furnace that I must feed with insults and contempt in order to produce clean, warm creativity. My greatest fear is that he will one day die or feel true joy. "
- Gabe [Penny Arcade], on his relationship with Tycho [Also Penny Arcade]
I found another friking keyboard shortcut, for anyone who cares. Alt+left arrow does the same as the back button, or the backspace key when you're not in a text area. I should have known that, in hindsight. Fuck.
Anyway, what I was saying was, that I've been thinking lately of making this journal friends-only. I know I've thought about it before, but lately, I've been making more private and friends-locked entries. Not that any of you knew about the private entries until now, but meh. So I was thinking of it. But I don't think I will unless I want a pretty banner, and I'm certainly not going back and changing almost two years of livejournal into friends locked posts, no sir-ee. So if I was to, I'd just have to.. no, I don't think I will. The entries I want to be friends locked will be, and the others won't. Bah. It's not like I have hordes of screaming zombie-fans or freaky-stalkers anyway. *shrugs*.
*tidies dishes* There. Now I at least have proof that I *was* going to wash the dishes, started tiding them, then realised there wasn't enough there to even bother, and so am saved. It is true, by the way, lately I've been washing the dishes, because hey, it's not like it's difficult, it's not like I'm busy and... yeah. Saves me from strife, which is good.
For the record, I'm not sure that I like Lost. I think I was expecting too much from the first episode, or maybe, just maybe, I was in the wrong mindset while watching it:
[here's one we prepared earlier]
Sharon [Gavin's sister]: So what do you think the monster is?
Me: Clearly it's Zombies. Look at all the bodies. Zombies. Or dinosaurs.
Gavin: You'd think Dinosaurs would leave footprints though.
Meghan: Oh, I get it, it's Dragons - they fly, thus leaving no footprints.
I don't know... the hero guy annoys me. It's his neat little cut thingies on his face, and his "damn I'm manly" attitude. What's his name, Jack.. Yeah. We made fun of him. It was fun.. but yes, possibly not the best way to take the series seriously.
It's not like I don't think it has the potential to be good, I just don't think it's spectacular yet.

Gavin: Someone's going to get sucked into that engine. I would put money on it.
Me/Sharon: Yeah, it's going to happen.
*time passes, guy gets sucked in*
Sharon/Me: There one goes, hehe. heheh.
Gavin: Aw.. and I missed it... I got the explosion... damn food... (had been eating at the time)
I find, lately, Thursdays have been fantastic days for me.
