On This Day Meme

I thought I'd do that, what did I post about, meme and post it into the echoing void as a lot of you are celebrating the Fourth of July and probably out in the fresh air (dangerous stuff that; be careful :-))


Soooo

July 4 2003

I won an award for best fanfic site which had me scratching my head then and does now as it's nothing much to look at today and back then it was pitifully bare. It's very, very strange to see people who ended up as arch memesisissies leaving friendly, appreciative comments. ::blinks::

I also wished someone happy birthday and rejoiced that David had come back from a trip, laden with fizzy wine gums.

Same old, same old.


July 4 2004

A mixed bag. Falling down power lines right outside my house, me whimpering sadly about Tim Henman at Wimbledon, plans to go to Steve and Shan's to swim, which ironically is what I'm doing tomorrow, too, and another birthday.

July 4 2005

Writing angst and a chipmunk on the loose in the house, pursued by Mac.

That happened just last week, too. Both of them. My life is an endless spin cycle.

July 4 2006

NO ENTRY!! Or for the Fifth. Was I ill? Abducted by aliens? What?

July 4 2007

Aha! The famous banana poll . That I'd completely forgotten about a mere year later.

Okay, that was... oddly depressing. My life is monotony interrupted by flashes of boredom.

Thank you, Kita

For making me totally mist over with tears (the good, happy, awww... kind, don't worry)

Go watch this 2 minute vid kita0610 just pointed to:

More about the lion

This is a fascinating article about Christian from the Daily Mail last year, with some great pictures (and some sad bits, though no one knows what happened to Christian after the encounter with his friends so we can assume he lived happily).
