  1. The School of Decay

    by , 09-22-2007 at 01:45 AM (Sci Fi Story)
    Ahhh, back on solid land. I was rushed in for an emergency. Apparently there was an opening in a Radiation Source Handling class. It was fun to work offshore again, and I will truly miss working with my brother for the time being, but I must go forth and learn.

    I had taken only 3 books with me for the job, and made it through one and a half of them. I read a book by comedian Lewis Black, and the first half of Battlecry by Leon Uris. I was hoping to get to Umberto Eco's Baudolino ...

  2. Signatures

    by , 09-21-2007 at 07:18 PM (A Little Bit of Everything)
    So I, out of curiosity, went to the thread marked 'signatures' (they really should mark it that everyone should read it) and discovered the new rules....

    My signature fit only one of them. So sadly I went over,dragging my fingers (instead of my feet) all the way to left and clicked the button 'user cp' looking at the list I paused with a sigh at the button marked 'edit signature'. *sigh* and that is what I did.


    Now I realized if EVERYONE has to change their sigs that ...

  3. Something for Nothing?

    Today I went to a real estate auction. Ever since the broken down house across the street from me sold to some guy for $4000, I've been interested in attending one of these. It was a beautiful sunny morning at 9 a.m. when we walked down to the location of one property that we were definitely interested in. The yard was full of junk, there was an old barn that needs to be torn down, and basically some painting that should be done. But other than that, the place had some appeal. We had a chance ...

  4. I know I'm dull

    Okay, I know I'm dull. I didn't really do anything today. I got up late, waited for the line at the freshers fair to go down, which took a while, though I managed to add some more stuff and tweak my Doctor Who script. I didn't really sign up for much or pick up many freebies. I probably could have but I was feeling a bit lousy. It wasn't long before I discovered why.
    Total number of things I picked up;

    he opens my heart
    like an old familar book
    held in esteem

    intimate and worn
    bookmarked and dog eared
    bending from use

    turning pages
    with his perfecting pace
    he tarries over stories
    fondly remembered
    comfortably seated
    in his usual chair ...
