So sick of being sick
Aug. 9th, 2003 03:41 pmIt's day 14 in the battle with my stomach. It continues to want to turn itself inside out, even when there's nothing in it. And I'm afraid that I've caught the flu, either from Matt or my mother.
There's nothing worse than being on public transport when you're feeling ill. Stupid little girl with loud toy, stupid yuppie who wanted to sit next to me, even though I was clearly sick and there were free seats. Stupid train that stops and starts and makes me want to throw up . . .
In other news, Matt's gone home to his parent's place for his father's birthday, so there's no snarky commenting from the couch behind me.
sangerin has a meme for me to play with *g*
If my life were a TV show -
We would be in Season: Half way through season 22.
It would be broadcast at: 10.30pm Monday night - fill the void left by Buffy
My favourite character would be: this "season" - Hannah, the little dancing raver
My least favourite character would be: Gropey McGrope, the evil Bread Shop Owner
I would ship: Gropey McGrope and Smelly Customer Woman
I would slash: The voices in my head
I would write fanfic about: The wibblers
I would write AUs in which: I was a snarky, ancient history reading, travelling ballerina
I would watch the show: occasionally, when I'm in one of those weird freaky moods.

1. Your favourite ballet production, professional or amateur, as an audience member?
Not strictly ballet, but I adored Batsheva Dance Company.
In terms of amature performance - nothing beats watching a group of three to five year olds dancing for their parents.
2. Your favourite ballet production as a participant?
Being Peter Pan in a dance production my dance teacher put on. Also, Coppelia - where I was a child - it was so much fun to stand side of stage and copy all the other dances.
3. Hawkeye/Hotlips shipper or not? So totally. Will write fic one day. Love smoochies *g*
4. Your (most) regular Starbucks purchase?
Long Flat White with two sweeteners
5. Tearstains is at least partially Snape/Hermione. Why? What in particular is it about that pairing?
I love the idea of life totally screwing up for both of them and then they find each other. I've often thought Hermione was emotionally older than others her age, and I can see her coming into her prime in her mid twenties. I can also see Snape softening as he gets older. It all just seemed to fit together then (whoa - vagueness)
