From memes to bugs.

Meme time! This one was stolen from [livejournal.com profile] abbichicken and it's one of those ten day things:

Day One: Ten things you want to say to ten different people right now.
Day Two: Nine things about yourself.
Day Three: Eight ways to win your heart.
Day Four: Seven things that cross your mind a lot.
Day Five: Six things you wish you’d never done.
Day Six: Five people who mean a lot (in no order whatsoever)
Day Seven: Four turn-offs.
Day Eight: Three turn-ons.
Day Nine: Two images that describe your life right now, and why.
Day Ten: One confession.

I'm also stealing the idea of writing the ten things about peeps on my flist (or in my google reader).


1. You should update more often, just because I'm kind of curious as to what you're becoming.

2. You're just a tad older but I'm forever amazed at how much more grown-up you seem in many ways, just a year or two ago you seemed like forever a mama's kid but now you're so independent!

3. As much as I love your digital photos, the editing you do on your film shots is rather horrible, they're oversharpened to death!

4. Everyone has a trainwreck kind of journal on their flist, you're mine. I'm kind of amazed at how many... ummm... interesting people one can know and still think it's normal.

5. I don't like kids and have no faith in most parents but I'm certain your kiddoes will become some of the best people on this planet. Your family just seems that way, perfect with its own little imperfections.

6. Have a little more faith in yourself, you are not defined by your friends even though they're very important to you.

7. As much as I know that you want to become a writer, your spelling and grammar are not adequate. There is only so much work an editor can do before throwing in the towel.

8. You're almost like a hero for me, giving up research after your PhD to do something completely unrelated and being rather successful at it. I wish I had your guts.

9. Niargh. You're all kinds of awesome. I'll read whatever you write because you're that good at it.

10. Thank you for the lovely comments, they're rare but that's why I appreciate them, I never know when to expect one. You always say that technically you could leave a comment on every entry but then you'd flood my inbox, I could say the same! I always read everything, I promise!

Please look forward to Day Two soon!





Every cloud has a silver lining, right? Well, all that rain we've been having lately was bothersome up until my mum pointed out that some of the plants have a rather lovely drop collecting technique.

Don't these kind of look like bugs with huge eyes?

They do! Haha, so great.

And the best part is that they don't move and therefore can't attack you. Snakes, rats, spiders, other things, I'm fine with those, but some bugs... not so much.

I love this meme XD

And those pictures are exquisite, what a wonderful thing to notice. You capture it so well...

Totally awesome meme indeed!

Waw, elles sont belles ces photos-gouttelettes. Et oui, on dirait des mantes religieuses, surtout la 2e qui est un peu plus verte.

Hier en remontant le Haut-Doubs j'avais des paysages magnifiques : un lever de soleil sur les champs et les villages tout recouverts de givre. C'était très beau, mais je ne pouvais pas trop m'arrêter : soit il n'y avait pas de place, soit j'avais quelqu'un derrière qui me collait au cul risquait de me rentrer dedans si je ralentissais :( A chaque fois c'est pareil, mais au moins je les ai dans ma mémoire.

Je crois que je vais piquer ton meme. Je suis dedans ? J'ai trouvé une description qui me correspondrait bien, ou au moins en partie ;)
(Et tu crois que tout le monde va te lire ? Parce que j'ai bien ri en lisant #4 mais faut oser !)

Mais osons! Mais osons!

Heh... en fait je pense que la personne ne lit pas trop les LJs des autres et même franchement c'est comme j'ai dit, c'est un trainwreck. J'ai vraiment l'impression qu'elle ne se rend pas compte que la vie des gens normaux ne se passe pas avec machin-bidule-qui-vient-de-sortir-de-prison et le grand-père-qui-tient-un-magasin-d'armes-dans-un-quartier-de-drogués en tant que personnages très récurrents. Si la personne se reconnaît, euh, limite c'est bien, comme ça je saurais qu'elle sait que sa vie est un peu spéciale :D

Since I hope you're talking about me in #5 I'm just saying thanks dear :D

This seems like an interesting exercise to do...even just about people you know in real life, hmm...

Haha I love it!
