What book(s) are you reading, currently?
The Thirty-Nine Steps (John Buchan), Dogsbody (Diana Wynne Jones), and Dracula (Bram Stoker), the last online.
What music is playing? What other sounds can you hear?
Bloody next door are playing music loudly in the back garden and it's too hot to chut the window. They do it most evenings and often during the day too and it drives me bananas.
I have a fan running. My typing clicks a little.
Look at the screen in front of you. What apps have you got open? What's running in the background?
I have LJ open, obviously, in Mozilla. I have another 9 windows of internet, including OW!, message boards, pictures of wolves, and the aforementioned Dracula. I have a telnet session open too (I've not got putty installed here yet).
What was the last thing you ate? Drank?
Half a box of chocolate finger biscuits, and a pint glass of orange squash.
What are you wearing?
White t-shirt and bra, purple cotton knickers, blue mottled skirt with weird frilled hem, hey, only £3 from Primark, worth it, and purple slippers. Scarily, everything I'm wearing bar the bra and knickers is from Primark. Scary. They're just nice and cheap, and I needed more summer clothes...
Where are you? At work, at home? What room are you in?
At home, in the study.
What are you meant to be doing?
Clearing up so the woman from Molly Maid doesn't quote us three zillion pounds for the cleaning tomorrow :)
Sniff! Sniff! What can you smell?
Nothing much, actually.
Who was the last person you spoke to in person? On the phone? Online? How long ago was it?
In person: The cat, or Robert if it has to be human.
Phone: Rhona this afternoon.
Online: I don't use any IM systems, and I haven't used IRC for a while, so it's hard to say. Emailed a guy about a job this afternoon, have been LJing and messageboarding this evening.
What's the last thing you bought in a shop? Over the interweb?
Assorted food from the Co-op yesterday; online, 'Geisha of Gion' from Amazon.
Are you feeling ill or achy or otherwise not well?
No, but too hot and not washed enough.
Are you wearing any jewellery? A watch? Hair things? Makeup? Something else that is not clothes?
No makeup. A turquentine necklace from South Africa. A white cotton scrunchie which is getting too loose.
Are you sitting comfortably?
Ow, no, my hips have gone all weird. Sitting on floor leaning against futon bad.
