Focussing on the Positive

[miss_s_b]

OK, me, OK, ignore the fact that you're not at Conference having a good time, and that you're going to lose more than half your week's wage this week because of your stupid innards just at the point when your rent is due, and that you can't get to sleep to night due to a fabulous combination of the insomnia that's been plaguing you all week and excruciating pain and needing the loo every five minutes... There must be some good stuff...

1, I looked at analytics today. Who knew that if you post to a blog, people will read it? LOL.
2, Mat is snoring away next to me. He's cute when he snores. He'll kill me for typing that.
3, I beat TeaKay TWICE in geekery in the last 24 hours. TWICE!
4, I have a doggy footwarmer. Sure, I have a temperature and am already too hot, and I can't feel my foot anymore, but it's the thought that counts.

erm...

5, Because I'm off work sick, if the pain allows me, I'll be able to do some housework as long as I disinfect after myself...

That's not really a positive, is it?

(That was a rhetorical question, Mother, I can see the comment forming on your keyboard even now :P)

OK, OK,

6, Now Show on the radio tomorrow, since I missed it tonight.

Six is LOTS of positive, right? Good. I'm going to attempt sleep again now.

Yes, yes it is.

Further to my already stated protestations, it is not really fair to compare geekery in fields of interest that are not shared.

How many TARDISes do you have lying around. Huh? HUH?

I have one TARDIS USB hub, one flashing tardis keyring, and one kit one handbuilt by Hol with a bit of help from Mat. I don't have many, in other words. But I have shitloads of daleks and two Davroses.

I've got two that are established parts of grown-up ornamentation (one is inspired, it really is: you don't realise there's a TARDIS there unless you actually look properly), and a bit-less-than-full-sized cardboard cutout that I made myself and is stuck to the back of the under-stairs cupboard door. I think that last one would probably trump all but the most devoted of TARDIS-based displays. I'm hoping to acquire some Daleks at some point, but they're harder to make look good, if you see what I mean: it's easy to make a Dalek look like a half-arsed attempt. You can get decent TARDISes on the front of magazines.
