as if my area isn't creepy enough.

The city has been enveloped in this thick fog, like we're living on the moors in a Sherlock Holmes novel. I do not know if that reference makes sense, as I have only read one Sherlock Holmes novel and in it he was an opium junkie and it was primarily urban, but the general impression I have of Sherlock Holmes involves fog on the moors, though I am unclear about exactly what moors are. Anyway, point is it's sort of creepy, especially because it's pretty abnormal for Melbourne to have fog to quite this extent. I took that photo while walking home from a party tonight. I sort of expected to get murdered because bad things happen in the fog, but I made it home safe.

I took my bike for a ride on Tuesday and rode like four or five kilometres, which is really not all that far but I am pathetically unfit so I was pretty impressed with myself. I had grand plans to take it out every day, so of course I promptly fell ill on Wednesday; all I did for all of Wednesday and most of Thursday was sleep and try not to tilt my head too much as it lead to insane dizziness.

When I was a little kid I used to have dizzy spells, when I was about three, I think. My mother said it used to freak her out so much because she'd always worry it would happen while I was climbing the monkey bars or something and I'd end up dead. I seem to have survived alright though. I don't really remember it, except for this vague impression of sitting on a brown velvet armchair in my house in Canberra and looking at a picture book and then the room suddenly spinning. Thinking about this is making me feel ill again.

I want to do some kind of meme but I can't think of anything.

All our conversations end up in the same place.

WRITE IT I WANT IT. I totally want an apocalyptic je fic too, I love post-apocalypse narratives. People living in the ruins.

jakl;fjakfaj OMG, I LOVE APOCALYPSE FIC.

When I was, like, thirteen, I used to read all these books where the world ended through some kind of horrible nuclear disaster or random disease and then people had to ~*come together*~ to rebuild civilization. The world needs this as an AU. *______*

Kame and Pi go missing and have to find the others, everyone looks to Jin for leadership, he's like, oh my god what do I do... but sucks it up and by the time Pi and Kame find him he's like, this authority figure but the second he sees them he just bursts into tears and becomes really lazy again so they have to do everything.
