Hurrah! It's vaguely sunny! It's nearly two weeks since I've had to close the blinds at work and even now most of the sky is still flat and grey with only bits of blue. I can't believe that it's been like this for so long yet we haven't had any rain. So strange.

No Atlantis today. Woe. At least I get to leave work early to go to the dentists.

I <3 Neil

Just been to the dentists. No problems, remarkable dental hygiene, blah, blah, blah. Go to pay my thirty-five pounds. Put my card into the chip and PIN machine and the receptionist SNAPS MY CARD. Whoops. And no, I've never seen that happen before either. I did laugh rather a lot - what else can you do! And then she says to me - you'll not be spending much money tonight will you. You're quite right - NO I WON'T. D'oh. And I've just had the pleasure of being cut off twice while phoning the bank to get a new card.

In other news, casirafics just posted this fabulous Neil Gaiman quote from Locus on the topic of potential Good Omens sequels:

"We'd probably use Crowley and Aziraphale because they are just such a wonderful device, a lovely authorial creation -- they work very well. On the other hand, I have to say, we now live in a universe in which we are now competing for ownership of C & A with several hundred thousand young ladies who like to write about their erotic adventures on the Internet. Crowley and Aziraphale slash is apparently something that anybody who's bored of writing about sexual high jinks at Hogwarts nips over and does something with our favorite demon and angel...."

ETA: From featureannounce - "Changed the upload userpic form so the "Make this your default picture" option is not selected by default". Yay! That used to piss me off a disproportionate amount.
