( Here be spoilers... )

So I'm getting on swimmingly with my icons100 challenge

50 / 100 (50.0%)

I'm trying very hard to not make them ALL Rodney and John but failing miserably. So far Rodney's in 22/50 and John's in 16/50. That doesn't sound too bad until you realise Teyla's appears the third most and she's only in 7/50 - oops!
If you're at all interested here they are so far:

Sans Season 5

EDIT: I'm wondering why Loudtwitter seems to be shipping my twitters completely randomly. There's stuff from a couple of days ago that hasn't appeared yet - weird!

Comment on this post and I will choose seven interests from your profile. You will then explain what they mean and why you are interested in them. Post this along with your answers in your own journal so that others can play along.

I got mine from ireth

Thanks to all the lovely people who were sympathetic about my hand. Thankfully it's really not that bad. Though it hurt like hell last night, holding a glass of cold water against it a smothering on savlon seems to have done the trick. So the good news is: apparently my reflexes are better than I thought and it's only a very minor surface burn. And the bad news is: I'm a complete and utter wimp ;-).

Did another silly thing this morning. I was trying to adjust the width of the curtains so we can hang then up. You have to tie them at one end before pulling the strings. I umm... might have pulled the wrong end and the strings are now mostly outside the curtain...oops! Never mind, just went out and bought a darning needle so I should be able to fix it.

I decided to indulge in another chick flick last night. Well it does mean that Phil doesn't have to be subjected to them... well not so much anyway. I rented P.S. I Love You ( review with mild spoilers and some icon news )

EDIT: Why is it that the rich text editor is so rubbish? I tried to edit the lj-cut text by going directly to the html, but it messed up the cut and I ended up having to cut out a load of guff the rich text editor had put in and put in the html manually *sigh*.

What am I on about? Well it's taken me until um yesterday to actually PROPERLY look at Joe Flanigan's imdb page - i.e. not just drool over the pictures. And what did I learn... I wonderfully own some of the boxsets of series he's been a guest star in - namely Dawson's Creek, Tru Calling and CSI: miami - *headdesk*

I thought I'd start with Dawson's Creek today

So finally, finally, the house has officially sold! We're going to be moving out by the 11th of August into some rented accommodation in Hemel Hempstead. For those of you who don't know where Hemel Hempstead is, it's where this happened:

I did not stay up all night watching Stargate Atlantis and drinking vodka and diet coke, honest!

Sorry folks, haven't been on here in ages. I just thought I'd better update you all on the happenings of my life.

I'm sure most of you are aware now... but I got engaged on Christmas eve to my boyfriend Phil. We plan to marry in the summer next year. No date yet as we've only just started looking at venues and are busy just now trying to move...

Phil and I will be in Glasgow from the evening of the 1st through the whole day on the 3rd. Is anyone up for some drinks? Let me know and we can organise something! Sorry I haven't been through my friends page in ages, but I will get round to it soon!

It's official I am mental. At least I'm a productive nutcase...well I guess that would depend on your definition of productive! Anyway, I just finished my 100 icons mission for the 4400. If your at all interested they're here

Sorry I haven't been catching up on my friends page lately. Nasty cold + iconing madness. I'm going to start catching up soon. Hope you are all well,

 Just to let you know, I've made a new community for all my creative crap - icons, textures (hopefully), etc etc. If you're at all interested it's at pixiecreative. I haven't posted anything yet, but I should be soon.

Hi all. Phil just bought us a new computer as my last one imploded (multiple hard drive failure :(). I've since been using a laptop from Phil's work, but it needed to be handed back, hence new computer. If you're a geek here are the specs:

• ( Geekiness this way )

It's not exactly top of the range but pretty good value and much better than imploded computer. Vista's a bit of a pain in the ass. Annoyingly Nero doesn't work on it unless you've got the latest edition. The computer did come with another Nero like program,  but I really can't be bothered learning how to use it. My concentration problems make it a lot harder to use any software I'm not familiar with :(. I've spent the last couple of days transferring all my crap from the backup DVDs and installing games. Now - play time!

In other news, I've just started a CFS self management program (yes the name itself did put me off but one has to try these things!)

I am monumentally knackered. Despite being in bed early on the saturday I feel like I haven't slept in a week. M.E. and conventions DO NOT MIX. Still it was worth it. Haven't had such a good time in ages. More to follow tomorrow. Need sleep!

 1. Go to http://www.careercruising.com/;
2. Put in Username: nycareers, Password: landmark;
3. Take their "Career Matchmaker" questions;
4. Post the top ten results.

1.	Multimedia Developer
2.	Botanist
3.	Taxidermist
4.	Optometrist
5.	Website Designer
6.	Biologist
7.	Computer Support Person
8.	Veterinary Technician
9.	Industrial Designer
10.	Marine Biologist
( and all the rest )	Animator

 Taxidermist at number three? That makes me seem like a complete boring old fart. The engineering stuff further on makes me laugh too. I'm shite at electronics.

I'm having a truely shitty day. My computer has died (using Phil's spare work laptop) and the bank are being crap about changing my account back to a student one. Aparently the problem is that student accounts can't last more than 5 years. So if you've got special circumstances like me you're screwed! Trying to explain everything was a nightmare as well since my brainfog was pretty much at it's highest level - probably due to the computer problems stress. In fact it's so bad I can't explain everything here but I just needed an outlet!

Ok oops haven't updated about Santorini or Phil's brother's wedding . I spend so much time reading my friends page that I don't have any time or energy to post myself. Well that'll teach me for joining a very active and interesting community! Anyway just thought I'd pop in and mention I'm going to be in Glasgow very briefly at the end of this week for my sister's hen night. I'm not going to have a chance to go out properly but I will pop into the deparment around coffee time. Hopefully see some of you then!

In other news. I now have the new pokemon game - yay!!!! That'll keep me entertained on the long train journey

Just had to celebrate! One of my hardrives died ages ago taking all my damn art packages to the grave with it. I was going to wait until I opened up the 'puter and put in a new hardrive to get them back. There are a few problems with that:
1. I'm a lazy cow
2. I'm skint
3. The damn computer is too heavy for me to lift myself (damn M.E.) ....
Thus I've been living with crappy pain for ages. Today I decided to sod  it . There's not a huge amount of space left on hardrive but to hell with it. I've got Photo-Paint back!!!!!!!!!! I think I'll wait to get back Photo Shop as I tend to use Photo-Paint more often away.

I'm sorry I've been utterly hopeless at updating my journal and in fact this is gpoing to be a fairly short post but I'll try to add more at a leter date.  So a little while ago I was away for a holiday in Santorini, Greece. Phil had a conference over there so I decided to join him and have a nice holiday. 



When we eventually arrived at our hotel in Santorini we ended up sleeping most of the day away. Thankfully our room and our hotel were lovely. We stayed in the hotel Reverie. I seriously recommend this place to anyone who wants to stay in Santorini. Ok so the pool is small, bu the place is well maintained, you actually get a proper double bed (not common on the Greek islands!) and the family who ran the place were so friendly and helpful. There was I nice communual area at the top of the building with views over the caldera.

I'll write more later - probably on saturday, but here's a couple of nice pics:
