PSA for Paid Users

If you don't already watch paidmembers or the ever-helpful the_lj_herald, see this post about how you can get an extra week of paid time as compensation for LJ's recent downtime.

Once again: If you had a paid account during the recent LiveJournal downtime (that was the weekend all us addicts were whimpering that we couldn't get to our friends pages, remember), you can get a full seven days of extra paid time.

"This extension claim expires in a week on Monday, 11.20.06 (at 11:59pm GMT)" so go check it out now.

i will forget the sun behind the ymca

As the day
with us who are stoutly fighting
with the shades at landing time,
the chastening stripes must cleanse them all;
and the sungod blotted out the sun;
and his ears hear nought of the cities of men with mortal sins, angels never cry

so bring on the home-coming
after the anorexics have curled
in not paying you for being not a pretty me!
i feel closer to your life.

There's a story in there somewhere. Maybe two stories, but at least one story that I really wish I were awake enough to tell.

Yeah, I really do need to start doing MegaPoMo posts earlier in the day, at least on days like today when I knew I'd be overtired after all the running around. It seems a shame to have MegaHAL doing all the work without substantive contributions from me, although it's true that HAL doesn't complain.

On an entirely different note, I loved tonight's House episode. Road trip!

Coughing now. Sleep in a moment. Talk to y'all tomorrow.
