Is my Blog HOT or NOT?

Today was really uneventful! Highlights included doing my Old English translation for monday and searching for flights for my round the world trip. This was actually pretty cool: just doing random searches on roundtheworldflights.com and statravel.com :) You put in the places you want to go and there you go: stupidly cheap flights! And to weird places. Like, it never even occurred to me that I might want to go to Easter Island until now. And now I do want to go!
Leylop has loads of pictures of the city she lives in on her site at the moment.
Merry got injected with a digital tag for his trip to the Netherlands as well to day, and Mike's been grappling with Dutch pronounciation so all in all there are a lot of itchy feet (and paws!) in this house.

I love crappy internet quizzes so much and this one is actually less predictable than most. I didn't guess I was going to be a Basilisk, anyway :) ¶ 9:30 PM
Definitely one of the lesser known of mythical bests, you are described as having the head and legs of a cock, the body of a serpent, and the wings of a bat (although there are wingless varieties). You were the blame of hundreds of thousands of deaths in the middle ages. Your breath and even gaze was deadly. Hundreds of basilisk hunts were organized to get rid of you. The hunters would carry mirrors so that, if they encountered you, they would have you look in the mirror and destroy yourself! Weasels were also reputed to be able to kill you, as they could resist your deadly gaze. You were a potent symbol of death and in some cultures the embodiment of Death himself. In Christianity, the Basilisk was linked with Satan.
What mythical beast best represents you?
"Catch-22 did not exist, he was positive of that, but it made no difference. What did matter was that everyone thought it existed, and that was much worse, for there was no object or text to ridicule or refute, to accuse, criticize, attack, amend, hate, revile, spit at, rip to shreads, trample upon or burn up." Catch 22, Joseph Heller
How can people exist in the world who haven't read this book?

Me and Doria outside the only cafe in central london that is neither starbucks, nor neros nor costa nor (gulp) nescafe coffee shop.
Embarrassed and annoyed and photographed :)
Shamefully the 100% first home cooked meal eaten in this house this month! And that rice is boil in the bag!
And the chef! ¶ 11:37 PM

Went out with Ms Daizy today, for random Tower/japanese kitch/Borders staff discount antics. Mike embarrased me taking loads of tourist-like photos of Piccadilly circus and Eros and policemen and tube signs and things! Will put some of that stuff up here later I reakon. Weird last couple of days, hence reduction to pink punk cats and stuff. Or whatever.
Expect more sense later.
And maybe a brand spanking new mailing list. Possibly! ¶ 10:29 PM

All hail the new links :)
Now you know where I spend my time when I'm not thinking of inane things to say here.
My Punk Planet forum incarnation is as 'mcbabe'. ¶ 3:54 PM

Another interesting blog. ¶ 10:40 PM
I took some photos today on my way home from the library, which I thought I'd share with you all. They're just of the sunset etc! You can''t see much of Goldsmiths, so if you're curious about that you'll have to wait for daylight pics. Maybe I'll take some tomorrow? Who knows! Check the photos out here. ¶ 10:07 PM
Here I am, blogging from uni when im meant to be working! Well, I have nothing to say to justify myself!
I just realised that my site looks all weird when I visit it on a mac - so I'll try and figure out why and fix it! ¶ 5:42 PM
