(no subject)

Been getting terrible dreams lately. They make me wake up at odd hours of the night. So tired.

It's Nadal vs Murray tonight isn't it? I look forward to this so much. Not a Murray fan (haven't really looked at him since he pissed me off around 2 years ago with his terrible attitude) but if he plays the way he did Gasquet, then this match will be Something To Watch. But oh God, please don't rename Henman Hill to Murray Mound. Please.

The post didn't come yesterday, so I couldn't find out what my new salary is. Hope it'll get here today.

My computer's mouse's scrollwheel suddenly died. It worked fine and then suddenly it just doesn't click anymore when I turn it and the page doesn't turn. It still works when I use the "press down" function so I can still easily open new tabs/close tabs that way, but damn. It's a small, old USB mouse that just has 2 buttons and the wheel, it's simple, unlike all those horrible big things with more buttons than you have fingers for. I like this mouse. :(

Fic now has title! XD Nicked from a song, as always. The lyrics of the song has nothing to do with the fic really, but the name of the song sort of does, and the sound of the song makes me think of the mood of the story somehow... so there we go. And now that writing's done, I can finally go read all the fics I've been missing...

PostPet

There's an iGoogle app that lets me post to LJ. Awesome. Also found one that'd let me read Gmail at work rather than just see a preview of new messages!

So... who here knows what PostPet is and who's got one? I had one years and years ago, when PostPet first came out, but it was a free trial. I'm thinking it might be kind of fun to have another one... but of course there's no point in having one unless your friends have one as well. So. Anybody? I do wonder how to get one now, though. Do I need to buy the software? It's around 2000yen... I don't suppose anyone's got a "free" version..........?

Random thought

Reading an article about a woman who got stuck up a tree trying to rescue a cat because the branch she was standing on broke. It says that firefighters used a triple extension ladder to get to her... this is when I get reminded how different some things are here. In HK, because everybody live in skyscrapers, fire engines are all fitted with ladders and hydraulic platforms that go up to 12 (or is it 15?) floors (edit: Wikipedia says 53m ladder). I suppose maybe an engine wasn't deployed in this case, but the fire engines here probably aren't that well equipped in comparison, overall. Yet, taller buildings are starting to appear around the capital... wonder if this is being addressed, or if some disaster is going to happen before someone realises equipment needs to evolve with society. Is this country proactive or reactive?

Nadal vs Murray is on. I'm backing Nadal because I want to see another Roger vs Rafa final. So very, very broke this year, so the option to buy last minute tickets to see the final probably isn't open to me. But I had such a great time with lpatobe last year! Really would love to go again. :(

I scored 20/20 in today's English test! \:D/

Dear D1 fans

Here, have a rather D1 song: My Same.

( Lyrics )

I'm on a little D1 high here. And I'm eating a muffin slice. And it is good.

Oh also, today's horoscope for Sagittarius. ;D
