So, apparently the library doesn't mind me on LJ at all if I bring my laptop. (Yay wifi at the library!)

I got over nine hours of sleep last night. I mention this because for-who-knows-how-long I've been getting about 5, *maybe* six. That just boggles the mind. And I know I need *at least* 6 on a regular basis. (Though, preferably at least 7.) Really need to figure out how to fix that.

Was surprised to come home from my small Bible study group to find my brother asleep on the couch with the tv on. (He got his own place at the beginning of last month.)

I've decided to take a break from that small group - haven't quite decided if it's going to be temporary or permanent - due in part to the fact that I've missed a number of our meetings for the past two lessons. The other part being because there's about a 20 year difference between me and the next youngest in the group. While I think it's good to share experiences with others who are at different points in their faith walk, I'm not sure, this time, how good it is. The easiest way of explaining it is "They're all Republicans!", but that seems like a childish and stupid reason. (And it probably is.) I want to stay and use our differences as a way to challenge all of us on how we think about things (like the comment that was made about Heath Ledger), but I usually don't know what to say (since the things I differ on come up infrequently) and I don't want us to be fighting every time something does come up.

In other news, February's kicking my ass in writing. I'm doing pretty well in keeping my head above water with keeping up with my daily wordcount, but barely. (Having less days really messes with things.) I'll get through this month, though, the same way I've decided I'm going to get through this story - out of spite. :-P

In completely unrelated news, I need to through the icons I've been saving up and find more "daily use" icons.

Taken from jackette:
1. Leave me a casual comment of no particular significance, like a lyric to your current favorite song, your favorite kind of sandwich, or maybe your favorite game. Any remark, meaningless or not.
2. I will respond by asking you five personal questions so I can get to know you better.
3. Update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
4. Include this explanation and offer to ask someone else in your own post.
5. When others respond with a desultory comment, you will ask them five questions.


And jackette's questions:
1 - Who's your favorite SG-1 character and why? Hmm. Tough one. I think I'm going to go with Jack because I love his sense of humor and the way he does things (he gets away with as much as he can while still obeying the rules. Usually.)
2 - What's your favorite SG-1 ep and why? I can only pick one? I think I'm going to have to go with "200". I think because it definitely shows the show's humor and, like I've said before, "Wormhole X-treme" was the show's way of saying "Yes, we know what we sound like," "200" is a big wet one to the fans.
3 - If you were cast in an ep of SG-1 what would your dream role be? You mean aside from a doomed love interest? :-P Possibly a minor System Lord. (Though, that may be due in part to seeing Cliff Simon two years in a row at Creation Con.)
4 - If you could spend the day with one member of the SG-1 cast who would it be and why? Dan Shea, because I think it would be cool to see the technical side of his job.
5 - What didn't they do on SG-1 that you wish they would have (ie was there something unfinished)? I know that this is a very tiny, minor thing, but I want to know what Jack got his master's degree in.
