...just finished reading the last Sherlock Holmes story.

*must go have ten minutes of contemplation before heading off to Roman history*

There comes a moment in one's life when you realize you're sitting on a pile of partially-crocheted blanket/yarn, crossed leg forming a table for your laptop, listening to "Butterfly" by Smile.DK whilst reading RDJude fic, and wearing one shoe.

He's no Professor Moriarty, and I'm cool with that. In fact, he's more like a Vulcan at peace with his emotions (or a non-violent Romulan, hmm?). Anyway.

I'm getting repetitive, I know. But. The first class of Latin last semester, he mentioned a mind meld without prompting. The first class of Roman History this semester, he mentioned Star Trek by name.

Actually, also in the first class of Roman History, he showed us pictures from inside an Etruscan tomb. They consist of people having sex whilst a bull watches and/or charges at them. Included is a two-guys-and-a-chick threesome.

Today, in the first class of Latin this semester, he did not mention Star Trek. He simply attributed the following quote to Benjamin Franklin: "Force shits on the back of reason."

He also provided a translation for one line of Catallus 16, simply stating, "I will face- and butt-fuck you."

He said this again in case we, ya know, hadn't heard.

This reminds me of the day where someone asked about Lesbia, and the man just kept saying, "Female homoeroticism." Being a person without an ounce of maturity, I giggled every damn time. It's like he didn't believe in synonyms!

By the way, I want Holmes to quote the original Latin poem. Just, well, because I'm like that. Oh, look, time to be assigned a lab drawer! :D

You know I'm spending my time as I'd like when the pages on my computer are entitled, "Hanukkah Eve Wind Storm," "Seattle," "Wikipedia" (also known as London, :P), "Underground" (aka London Underground), "Tower Bridge," "earth tectonic plates map," and "lyrics Useless Depeche Mode," along with the Dictionary application. Partially atop my keyboard is an open notebook and torn out page, both covered in scribbled 'dancing men'.

Victory.

Also known as "I'll do my Latin after dinner. Probably."

My own personal canon:

Following the events of 'The Adventure of the Empty House,' Watson and Holmes curl up together and fall asleep in each other's arms.


There was very much a d'awww factor to my reading last night. Oh yes.

Have you ever listened to multiple songs at a time? Not just an incidental occurrence. I've been known to do this occasionally (been a while since the last time).

At the moment, it's "Pony" by Far in the earbuds and "Party Hard" of ontd_startrek fame in the over ear headphones. Both damn loud.

Oh. My. Square.

I actually decided to do this because I thought, hey, in a modern AU, would Holmes blast his overwhelmed senses into a mad musical sensory seizure? (No idea what I just said there...)

I. NEED TO TURN ONE OFF. GOOD GOD. NOW.

*whimper*

EDIT: My ears are ringing in the silence. Go, Holmes, go.

Good lord, it would please me to no end if the next Sherlock Holmes film utilized the following phrase, as spoken by Holmes in 'The Adventure of the Speckled Band': "Very sorry to knock you up, Watson..."

This is even better than Watson being woken by an ejaculation in the previous tale.

Oh, English language, how you fascinate and entertain me.

I have just made my first foray into Sherlock Holmes as written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I found, however, that listening to "Butterfly" by Smile.dk for the duration whilst reading five such stories consecutively is akin to last night's newly experienced self- and mutual-torture technique of refusing to turn off the DVD menu for the Muppet Christmas Carol until the completion of a puzzle of Seattle.

Each recognized phrase from the current Sherlock Holmes movie makes me undeniably happy.

And I am going to take a break from that song. Oh yes.

It's 4:30 AM. Damn you Holmes and your inappropriate touching of Watson.

DON'T GET EXCITED.

Yeah, um... Major sorries for the disappearing-ish act, but this happens periodically. And often, or so I figure. But damned if I'm gonna pass up the opportunity to gloat mention this.

There's something immensely pleasing about finding a photo of oneself making out with Captain Kirk on the floor in the midst of the Sherlock Holmes Kink Meme.

On that note, I must return to said Kink Meme. Depravity, anyone? I'm cool with that.

Been long enough since I last posted, no?

Not much has changed, I suppose. I still scribble Star Trek doodles in my class notes and write little fic bits that'll never see the light of day. :) Someday I'm gonna have to be satisfied with some of my writing. I hope. >.>

I have one class left this semester, E&M in an hour.

Need to make a "Happy Birthday!" phone call.

Fourth chem test went fuggiliciously. But, fortunately, the lowest-scoring test isn't counted in the grade. \o/ Oh, and yes, I'm aware that's not exactly a word. I do that. Make up words, that is.

Today I've been listening to the two "Trek Companion" albums that had been posted back at some point on ontd...

Has anyone else heard of Pon Farr Perfume? I haven't checked ontd. But, it and Tiberius Cologne exist, so your argument is bent over a table and...you get the picture.

I really need to get caught up on things...

...just called me Chrissy Pine.

( Camera fail, but it's still...Spock? )

I was both disappointed in the lack of fellow Starfleet officers and strangely gratified to find that Lieutenant Uhura was not present.

...am Spock.

The song(s) with the greatest play count for each letter of the alphabet (as per my iTouch, which I've had for almost a year and a half at this point which had its play count data erased one of the times I updated it).

I wish I could find a "Total Play Count" to find out how many complete songs I've listened to. Although it bugs me that songs don't count when I listen to 3 minutes of it, get bored (incorrect term--impatient is more accurate) with the lyric-lacking second 3 minutes and skip back to the beginning. Whereupon I may do this repeatedly (I'm thinking of "Closer," hee).

WHAT DOES MY MUSIC SAY ABOUT ME? ...I have no idea...

...OMIGAHD FOOT CRAMP OWW OWW OWWWWW!

I'm going to put the info for my iPod and not my iTunes. My iTunes collection is too epic, and I usually use my iPod. Except right now. *shrug* Oh, and I'm going to preserve the spelling as it is on my iPod. I know they're not entirely accurate.

Snagged this from b_dsaint

...am sick. I finally succumbed and missed chemistry. Physics is at 1:50, but I won't be going to that either (or at least so I told my professor). But of course, I would much rather attend class sick than miss it. However, it's the class disruption via coughing/people not wanting a sick person there that worries me. Although it's a large lecture hall with fourteen students, so I could avoid them. ...Arg. And today's the Pumpkin Launch and Demolition, following E&M. So I'd really rather go. My prof doesn't post his lecture notes for that class anyway (unlike chem), and writing down what he's saying is my primary method of acquiring the information.

Sinus pressure. OW.

Oh, and... I'd liked the idea of an episode/story that includes Spock having the common cold (basically) and McCoy teasing him mercilessly (until in the end McCoy starts showing symptoms). BUT.

Me sick does not equal a very convincing Spock for tomorrow. :( *cry*

Me crying also does not equal a very convincing Spock for tomorrow. Although we know...
