The Usual Friday Thing

Actually, my other usual Friday thing -- wibbling on about the latest episode of Farscape -- you might or might not see tonight, as I'm likely to be busy with a friend of mine who should be dropping by shortly after the episode finishes. She doesn't get cable and is dying for some more Farscape, so she's coming over to catch up on the post-hiatus Story Thus Far with a little help from my collection of videos.

But I do have that other regular Friday tradition for you, the Friday Five.

1. What is one thing you don't like about your body? The fact that it's only good for another handful of decades or so, and that it's not even warrantied for that long.

2. What are two things you love about your body? Well, the fact that it at least hasn't had any serious, non-correctible malfunctions thus far. And taste buds. I like taste buds, because they allow me to appreciate chocolate. (And I'm really not interpreting these questions quite the way they were intended, am I?)

3. What are three things you want to change about your home? Well, getting the ceiling fixed where it was damaged by the leaky roof would be nice. And getting the rest of the skirting on. And, oh, yeah, permanently plugging up that big ol' hole in the roof where there used to be a second swamp cooler.

4. What are four books you want to read this year? Listen, I've got well over 400 unread books sitting in piles in my bedroom, and I honestly do intend to read every single one of 'em Real Soon Now. I don't particularly see the point in picking out four titles at random.

5. What are five promises you have kept to yourself? Um... I don't know. I generally try to avoid promises unless somebody forces one out of me, because once I promise something I feel honor-bound to keep it. And I don't usually go around forcing them out of myself, so... *Shrug.*

Wow. How's that for a big ol' bunch of non-answers?
