Ye gods, what a profoundly dreary day. Cold and damp and grey, with a fine, thin mist drizzing the air. It's supposed to stay above freezing tonight, so I pulled the towels off the deck plants. Then I came back inside and turned the heat up.

I saw this on sholio's DW the other day and thought it was interesting -- it's a Trope Sorting Meme, and it made me laugh (in recognition) when I saw my results. Obvious attractions are obvious ...

Yeah, I don't know why some of these, like "Hogwarts AU" and "Pride and Prejudice AU" didn't come out dead last, because I rejected them every time. Color me very unsurprised for what tied as the first three. :D



Dreamed last night that I had bought a necklace of some kind from the David Morgan store in Bothell, Washington (while I have been to Washington state, I've never been to Bothell). I was standing in the parking lot, trying to put it on, but I was having trouble fastening the clasp so I asked Mister Nightdog_barks to help me. There were three or four bald eagles nearby (like perching on the roofs of low buildings) watching. A young woman -- a clerk -- came out of the David Morgan store and started talking to me, but I was having trouble understanding her. Eventually I realized she wanted to know if I wanted to purchase an insurance policy for the necklace. I was trying to tell her "no" and still having trouble understanding her when the dream simply trailed off and ended, as dreams do. OK then, brain.

Hm, I thought the first meme did that too (it did for me, anyway). I assumed it was to compare how much I liked something -- for instance, if I said I liked "Daemons," it would leave "Daemons" up as a choice and have me vote to see if I liked something else better than "Daemons." Like when the optometrist keeps changing the lenses and says "Is it better this way? OR THIS WAY?" :D

But I don't know. Maybe it's a glitch. I'll take the second meme later and see what it does. ♥
