Stargate: Atlantis - Sateda.
Sep. 29th, 2019 11:02 amI 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.

Daisy pictures!
Sep. 14th, 2019 05:06 pmMy 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.

Little thief part 2.
Sep. 1st, 2019 04:40 pmI was eating scrambled eggs this morning. Did I ever mention Daisy loves scrambled eggs? She came over and stood by my plate, staring down at it.
I got the impression it was a, "Give me some or I'll help myself." I gave her some.
I'm such a pushover.

I was pleased to see all 5 seasons of Stargate: Atlantis were free to watch on Amazon UK Prime Video. I only saw episodes up to season 3 and I wouldn't swear I've seen more than one full season.
Some spoilers under the cut.

Little thief.
Aug. 28th, 2019 07:16 pmI had a small tub of chocolate trifle with a kind of whipped cream topping on my desk. It had recently come out of the fridge so was nice and chilled.
Daisy was cruising across my desk in order to check out the remains of my dinner when she passed by my dessert.
Normally, she doesn't steal my food but even a, "No!" didn't stop her from hoovering up the topping. It was a really hot day yesterday so I can't blame her.
It's a good thing she's adorable.

Has anyone else heard of Ecosia? It's a search engine run by a company that uses 80% of the revenue generated by searches to plant trees.
All we have to do is use it instead of Google or Bing or whatever search engine we normally use.
I read a review of it. It claims to be unbiased but it's very much in favour of Ecosia.
There's another review here.
So far, it looks like Ecosia is legit and has planted over 65 million trees.
Now I have to remember to use Ecosia rather than Google.

The delivery firm, not the fashion house nor the Greek God.
Every time I get a parcel delivered by Hermes, I get emails asking me to fill in their feedback survey. Have any of you guys ever looked at it? Normally, I go through a few screens, realise it's long and nope out of there. This time I carried on out of curiosity. It went on forever.
Was your driver polite, was he friendly, was he professional? Did he do this, did he do that, did he do the other? Was your parcel in good condition, was it on time, was it well wrapped? Would you recommend us, would you use our service, would you...
GAH!
When they asked, "Can we do anything to improve our service?" I suggested, "Shorten your survey."
I know they won't listen. Next time, I'll ignore their emails and see how many times they email me.

What magic gift was given to you...
Aug. 2nd, 2019 06:19 pm...according to your birthday?

Your Birthday Reveals your Magic Gift
It doesn’t matter if you believe in magic. Not even if you know what’s the number which corresponds to your birthday. Your Magic Gift is here whether you are aware of it or not. However, if you do find it out, then you’ve got more chances to ‘cultivate’ it and become master of its power.
To learn your secret gift, add the digits of your date, month and year of birth until you have a one-digit number. For example, if you were born on September 1 1975, the one-digit sum would be 5. (1 + 9 + 1 + 9 + 7 + 5 = 32 = 5)
Mine is 6.
Number 6. The Solar Apprentice
Number 6 symbolizes the sun and all that comes from our Source of Light. Therefore, you have a strong energy flow inside. You magical gift comes from the Sun. Hence, it embodies all the blessings of life and their power. You are a healer and a leader. But with great power comes great responsibility. Learn how to use your magnificent power in the most ethical way.
Your Magical Profession: Ritual Magic, all spellcasting & Healing

So what's yours?
