[Untitled]

In hilarious news, I appear to have a throat infection right in time for the all-singing, all-dancing easter extravaganza. Also napping from 7pm-11pm = teh win. Luckily I seem to be one of those people who can nap until about an hour before going to bed and still be able to sleep afterwards. Marvel at my napping skillz.

Almost all the way through season 3 of the X-Files and I keep spotting people like Amanda Tapping and Lucy Liu in the episodes, it’s both bizarre and random – mostly because I didn’t notice them before. Probably because they weren’t famous or had really been in much else at the time.

Please explain the scientific nature of the whammy.

In other news, I chopped my hair short again. Once more I can get out of bed, forget to brush my hair and have no one notice. 😀

Also, yay Kermit. 😀

I’m on season 3 of the X-Files after starting about 5 episodes into season 1 last weekend. It’s far easier to watch when I don’t have to snatch time from whoever’s watching tv downstairs. The only random trivia I remember about this episode is that in a scene at the beginning where Mulder and Scully are talking, Gillian Anderson is standing on a box so that both their heads fit in frame.

I was gunnin’ for a basement office with no heat or windows

I have finally outsmarted the antiquity of the tv in my room and made the dvd player work with it. Mostly this involves plugging in the scart cable into the lone aerial socket on the tv through advance technological means. No more shall I remain stuck with my crappy 4 channels of rubbish (I don’t even get the fifth marvellous channel of terrestrial crapness on this tv, even with the new aerial), I can now watch the rest of my x-files box set from the comfort of… a metal chair in front of my desk. Or even my bed. Or the floor with it’s lovely carpet of blueness. Woog.

Aw. First season Scully. So young, so sceptical! First season Mulder! So young, so not sceptical!

And the dvd player has a remote! I don’t even have to get up and go press the buttons on the tv to make things happen. Well. So long as it doesn’t involve turning the sound up or changing the channel or anything aside from controlling the dvd player. 😀

Fr Cormac Rigby RIP

Obituary

I last saw Fr Cormac when I was in still in Birmingham – we went to see Carmina Burana and the Four Seasons at the Birmingham Royal Ballet. He used to be the parish priest of my mum’s nursing home and my mum and dad were due to go visit him in Oxford on Friday. It’s kinda sad that he’s gone, but he’d been ill for quite a long time and lived a lot longer than his doctors were expecting.
