After a mild, rainy week, we woke up this morning to freezing rain. In the time it took me to come to work, it went from freezing rain to hail to rather nice fluffy snow.

Not, you understand, that we need any more snow.

We've got it anyway.

Winter in Ottawa is an ongoing adventure.

Ahaah It snowed for a bit here too! Not much though, happily. As you said, it's not like we need more... It's still a bit of an adventure to walk on the streets...

BTW? Have I pointed you to [community profile] tammy_awards?

No - that looks like fun. A good place to browse for what's good. Thank you!

*giggles* the Tammys are fun; the two first categories for the next Red Carpet ceremony are up, the other three will probably be coming today/tomorrow.

And the ceremony? Let's say it's a sweetly huge all-muses-all-fandoms-watch-your-back-and-laugh-our-shoes-off event...

Hee! Last ceremony, in the summer (June, I think), there was a HILARIOUS commentary going between Sylar and an OC. And [personal profile] rude_not_ginger got a bunch of the golden asses - including for, um, most hilarious couple... with another version of Ten, [profile] fluffnfreckles. And best threesome, with a version of the Rani and a version of Nine. And...
um. yeah.

the Tammys are fun.

Oh, there were people throwing pies at one another too. Oscar Wilde threw one at Snake Plissken - who in turn tried to shoot him with his gun (well, didn't try for a good aim too much...) ...
yeah. And considering that we have even more fun muses this time around, I think it will be fun. Again.

The mental images make it worth reading, if nothing else.

(Seems to me that Aral Vorkosigan would really, really like Snake Plissken... naw, I didn't just start thinking about that, did I?)

Lovely Hiro icon!

*nodnodnodnod* Not to mention that joining in is ALSO possible.

(Seems to me you could be right. Then again, Snake is so all-around awesome... lol [profile] _call_me_snake_ is a fantabulous muse. I do think him and Aral would get along (eventually) well. Heh. He even had a thread with Legolas...)

HEE! And I've not added to mine, but I can't avoid loving this one:

If only I had more time. Whimper.

Snake is so all-around awesome...

True!

I can't recalled if I've linked to [livejournal.com profile] _call_me_snake_; I've read and enjoyed some of his stuff, but I'm not keeping up with anyone or anybody... least of all my own bedraggled muses. (Which is okay: when I don't have time for them, Gwen just gets herself into more trouble, which is normal, and Aral just drinks too much, which is also normal.)

That icon is brilliant! It is... incredibly funny.

Ahahaha well the ceremony lasts... usually is over within a weekend, and you don't have to be following it exactly ALL of the time. Right now, it's just voting, and that's, well, one-off. Especially for these two sections, which are mostly visual sleaze. The last two sections are what I'm looking forward to.

And LOL Snake! Just win. (haha did you know that he's married to Xena? Each time I think of that and I Laugh. Out. Loud. (well, or at least smirk in a don't-you-love-RP kinda way)
... When are you going to, when you have time, tell about the trouble Gwen gets herself into? *loves Gwen's posts, but wouldn't mind some action either ;) *

hehe YES IT IS! [profile] vote4nathan is where I saw it. ;)

ETA: [profile] james_nicoll has posted a link to preliminary Nebula ballot. and YES, Blink is on it. *goes off-stage, squeeing*

omg! I just got finished voting in the first two sections over there. XD You had me confused for a sec, too, because I didn't expect to see mention of the Tammys on my OOC flist. (...did I just say 'omg'? oh, dear.)

I must admit, I'm a little jealous of your snow. This has been an unseasonably warm January so far. Lots of rain, though.

Muahaha ^_^ *loves startling people*

Which muse/s do you play? If you don't mind saying, I mean... >.>

*was startled!*

I don't mind! :D I'm responsible for [livejournal.com profile] coffeemagic/[livejournal.com profile] hofficoffi. What about youuu?

*bouncebouncebounce* [profile] singchristine. Also, [personal profile] stolehispurse. And [personal profile] pinkhairedauror/[profile] littlemorelove. And I'm working on apping a Torchwood OC, so I might get to play with you lot a bit more...

Sigh - everyone who doesn't have snow wants it. What's with that?

We have too much. Most of us don't want it.

Hey - cool. I knew about [livejournal.com profile] coffeemagic but not [livejournal.com profile] hofficoffi.

I bask in love and enjoyment of your Ianto.

No kidding. I think [livejournal.com profile] pinkhairedauror has allowed you to let out the inner [livejournal.com profile] kikibug13. Either that or Tonks is infecting you and taking over your personality by her evil imaginative influence.

I've always been puzzled by [livejournal.com profile] teatrical_muse and other muse-type etiquette. It is okay to link muse items to my regular LJ? I'd like to but it seems other people don't. I was waiting to see if I figured it all out by osmosis, but I guess my osmosis isn't working too well.

From: [identity profile] kikibug13.livejournal.com
*giggles* Oy, I've always loved surprising people. Tonks just helped me get better at it. *looves making people laugh, over and over again*

Ah, that. *points at own journal profiles, as well as others* you may, and you can. It's a personal choice. SOMETIMES people prefer to keep their muses separate, and have people NOT be influenced by who their other muses are; others just don't mind. And sometimes some people prefer that others don't know 'that new muse' is theirs, and such.

If you want to, by all means do. Those who don't tend to have specific reasons not to. Me, I think I've linked my mun journal on all main muses profiles, and have listed the main four (well... more or less main) on the mun journal. That's fine. *prefers openness to secrecy, oh yes*

Actually, most (at least two-thirds) of it has *melted* since the dumping we had last month. Right now, I would not mind a small dusting or two ... (but a repeat of that dumping would be sooo ... over-the-top).

And the Canal is still not open. It will take another week or two of deep freeze before we can skate on it safely.

When I last looked, we had a dusting. But then it was raining at lunchtime, so... no more dusting. We're somewhere between drowning in the flood and making tunnels under the snow.

I try not to think about the canal. It makes me feel guilty because I'm planning to skate.

At least there's no more fog, and the freezing rain/hail didn't stay long? And hey, ample opportunity to make those Daleks! <3

[livejournal.com profile] hofficoffi is relatively new. I suppose I don't really need two Ianto journals, but one journal in two prompt communities seemed like an overwhelming proposition. You're welcome to friend!

Aw, thank you-- I adore writing him, but I admit that I'm still surprised when I discover that other people read my prompts/threads! And we really ought to set up some Gwen-Ianto interaction, especially once S2 gets going.

I'm not foolish enough to want loads of snow-- we get a fair amount, most years-- but some flurries wouldn't go amiss!

Date: 2008-01-12 04:23 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] halfspokenwords.livejournal.com
Ohh! We've interacted a bit already, then. :D Nice to meet you proper!

And hey, if the OC happens (or even it doesn't, I suppose), Ianto is always available for RP.

Flurries. Yes. Flurries are manageable. Pretty. They fall like the gentle rain from heaven to the place beneath. And then melt, as befits well-behaved snow.

But reality being what it is, flurries usually turn into heave snowstorms leaving excessive piles of snow that get in your way and clog everything and stick around for months. Faugh. Flurries have no sense of moderation, that's the problem with them.
