aurora_novarum). A nice thing to do on a Friday. 1. RDA's acting in General Hospital. See the wonderful vid on surreallis's recent post. Dear lord but he was awful - and yet, still adorable. (See also Cold Lazarus for an object lesson in why practice is a Very Good Thing.)
2. Posts of glee. Go and add more glee!
3. Making my own tea blend, which I am definitely going to do soon. You see, there's a shop in Covent Garden where you can choose the tea types (lapsang, Assam, etc), add in other flavourings (rose petals, dried oranges, and the like), spritz it with a spray of orange oil, lemon oil, mint oil, etc - and then, you know, buy it, take it home, and make tea with it.
4. Tickets to and a room at Dragon*Con. (Now all I need to get are the flights...)
5. Vegetarian haggis for dinner tonight. Yes.
6. The warm, fuzzy feeling that someone, somewhere is saying nice things about me, when I get a sudden rash of 'Favorite Story' / 'Favorite Author' notifications from ff.net, out of the blue.
7. My Stargate mug, with colour-change Gate - so that when you fill it with hot water, the silhouettes of SG-1 disappear into the wormhole.
8. Glittery purple bracelets.
9. New String Theory!
10. Going to the British Museum at lunchtime. Aside from all the pretties, it's such a very nice space. The light in the Great Court is so comfortable on the eyes, and I love the stairs, broad and just the right height, stone worn soft from all the visitors. And it gave me an idea – see below.

Okay, my idea: I'd like to go to the British Museum more often, because it's just around the corner, plus I really ought to step away from my desk for my hour's lunchbreak, if I can. So I was thinking, to
Take a look at the museum's rooms here: Ground floor , Lower floor , Upper floor ...and pick a room number (or just choose a random number between 1 – 94). Comment with the number, and your preference of pairing or gen (bearing in mind that I've only watched half of season 1 of Atlantis, and haven't seen season 10 of SG-1). I will then go to that room, and write at least 100 words of fic based on something I see in there.
Whaddya think?
ETA: Okay, thank you! No more prompts for the moment, although I may reopen it for prompts again in the future. I'd love to have done a fic for every room in the whole museum, some day...

I do love the British museum to bits, a lot of the stuff on the walls is from there. I've made the promise to hit up the Smithsonian Muesuems more, esp as they are free.
To celebrating geekdom!
Man, I've got to get on the whole Dragon Con thing...
YES. YOU SHOULD. *g*
I fully intend to go to Dragon Con again - I just have to plan for it and all that lovely stuff. It's just currently on my "not a priority but should be" list.
*glees*
And it is months away - I expect it's not actually hugely urgent that you plan it Right Now OMG.
