hrm..

first/last sentences of the last ten things I've posted (not written, posted. If I did written, I'd be here all night)...

Wedding of the Millenium
It was the night before a wedding, and all through Braddock Manor, anic was stirring, although most of the preperations had been left in capable hands.
"...Oh, look, there's Alistaire. I'm sure you'd love to meet him,
Romany."

Dizzying Edge of Solitude
Pete Wisdom staggered out of the Crown and headed for his flat.
"Bastard."

Stirring the Secrets
"Mom? How the hell did I end up with so many names?"
"Goodbye, Earth."

Rewritten
Everyone knows the story of the Bible.
Jean and Scott found out that roast snake is *really* tasty.

Melted Ties
Sunnydale Hospital was bustling with activity.
"Dawn, you meet the strangest people."

Belle of the Ball
It was an unassuming house in a normal neighborhood.
"Yes, ma'am."

Bag of Promises
"I cannot believe I'm allowing myself to be roped into this."
"Anyone for tennis?"

Sympathetic Needs
He'd thought the voice was just a rock at first.
And he was sucked back into the life he was coming to hate.

Headaches in the Morning
In the blink of an eye, she was gone.
"Yeah, yeah."

The Elf Who Lived Next Door
"I can't believe I'm awake at this ungodly hour."
"I shall rectify it, then, madame."

on a more serious note...

My car is... not great. Last night I went out to check the oil, and, since I felt like it, I used a flashlight, and looked inside the oil thing. It was dry.

So I put 4 quarts of oil in.

Yes. 4.

Tonight, when I got out of the PC, I backed up and looked at the spot where my car had been. Y'know, there was probably 2 quarts on the ground. I opened the thing, added 4 more.

Driving home, however, wasn't great. The car's running roughly, and I belched white smoke the entire way.

Burning plastic, a bit of burning metal. Some of it was probably the oil.

Now I hope dad'll be home soon, since he can help determine what to do. Then I can sleep.

On a happier note, I got a double paycheck from the temp place, and my normal one from the PC. And I now have 11 hours of Farscape. ;)

Thanks, Drake, it made my day. :)
