To all my pals on DW who celebrate Christmas:

Why do manufacturers or programmers assume people want the most annoying setting on text programmes? Every single time, in Word, on phones, on Kindles, inputting text leads to a fight between what I want to write and what the programme insists on inserting. Then I have to track down the corresponding setting and turn it off in order to regain control over what the text actually says.

I was leaving a comment on a Hobbit fic on Ao3 and mentioned Nori. The keyboard didn't like that at all. Nori? Obviously a mistake! I obviously wanted the word 'Both'! In another comment, on Reddit this time, mom was obviously min. Gah!

I know what I'm typing! Stop fixing my words! Grrrr!

Technology, I tell ya. This is how the war between mankind and machines will start...with FU Autocorrect.

A big yawn caught me unexpectedly just now and I yawned right in Daisy's face. She was fascinated!

"What's that? Can I put my paw in?"

No, Daisy, don't be sticking your paw in my mouth, if you please.

Thanks to a Christmas angel (who may remain anon if she wishes), I had a name change token. So I am now Dimity_blue here as well as on LJ.

I have no idea if this is true or not.

I have a horrible cold. I always get toothache with my colds because my sinuses play up. And there's nothing quite like lying in bed and realising your nose is dripping all over your shoulder.

But I've just watched Sateda (season 3). Oh, Ronon! ♥ I love John (badly) expressing how much he cares to Teyla, Carson and Rodney arguing so long the wraith killing is over before they can join in, Rodney's underwear, and Carson finally killing that SOB with a drone. Oh, and Rodney backtracking and disclaiming all credit when it looks like Ronon is going to be angry he didn't get to kill the head wraith.

Does anyone else want Ronon and Carson friendship fics? I have a headcanon that Ronon would be really protective of Carson (especially outside of Atlantis) after Carson removed his tracker. Carson isn't a fighter (though he's as loud and shouty as Rodney, in his own way). I think Ronon would want to keep him safe.

My friend, Christine, was here today so I asked her to try out the camera on my Kindle. We both think it worked really well.

I ticked the box so they'd be automatically uploaded to Amazon as I have free photo storage as part of my Prime membership. I had to google how to find the photos on Amazon but they were easy to save to my pc once I found them.

Check them out.
