A short update and a meme

[eumelia]

I've been sick, yesterday I had a fever that knocked me out. Now I've got a constant leak coming out of my nose with slight shivers, but am no longer wanting to die. Will be going to my cousins for Sukkot with my brother since the parental units are gallivanting in China! (ooooh, the jealousy of it all consumes me).

And now a meme from antongarou:

The Alphabet Meme
1. A is for age: 22

4. D is for your dog's name: No dog, but my cat's name is Wish and he's the feline reincarnation of Jabba the Hutt.
5. E is for essential item you use everyday: Water kettle.
6. F is for favorite TV show at the moment: Dexter is the best thing on TV at the moment, though I'm looking forward to House MD, Doctor Who and Torchwood coming back for the new seasons.
7. G is for favorite game: Never, yeah it's a stupid social game, but it's better than Truth or Dare and I don't play Chess, Shesh-Besh or any other game frequently enough for them to be my favourite.

Delirium to Dream in "Brief Lives" by Neil Gaiman.
18. R is for Biggest Regret: I don't think in terms of regret- everything I did and experienced made me the person I am today. Even, and maybe especially, the bad things and decisions. Paraphrased from antongarou, reminded of the courtesy from nurint.

I like that you quoted Antongarou's answer for #18, and didn't even bother changing the gender. Intentional?

The "man" thing wasn't intentional, but the quoting thing was :)

Oh, wow, you even mentioned me there now... I'm famous! :)

Credit where credit's due.

I think I'll be good about the whole footnote and bibliography thing :)
