The first TEN people to comment in this post get to request a drabble (or icons/graphics/sketches.  I can try and write something...and yes I can write pron ;P) from me. In return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability level. If you absolutely can't write, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to offer drawings or icons or something instead....

My additional notes;
As much as I'd love to, I can't draw, heck, I can't even rule a straight line! And the closest I've come to making icons is fumbling some text onto caps by other talented folk. That being said, I'll try if you really want. Also, I'm open to any show/fandom, provided I can find the source for it. If you can help, awesome, If I can't you get to choose again.

Also, since I'm not even sure there are 10 people even reading this, after two other people (not including me) have commented after you and there are spots left, you can request again.

Usually the replaying dream I was just having. Followed usually by 'How late am I?'

While not always the same thing I was thinking about before I went to sleep they are usually related.

I like to borrow a second or two of your Christmas day, or whenever it is you read this to wish you a very merry Christmas( or Hunnaka, kwanza, or even just Dec 25th). Thank you for being awesomezord friends and really amazing people.
Much love
-Alan

I have a dog who listens to me vent /grin. There are some folks I can call. But I find that the folks who are likely to read this are pretty dang amazing. That's right F-List, I'm talking about you! /hugs

Constable Benton Fraser, Royal Canadian Mounted Police. from the show 'Due South'.

The Middleman From the show 'The Middleman'.

Capt. Malcolm Reynolds form the show 'Firefly'

Maybe there is something to the fact I get referred to as a cowboy. /grin

Howdy awesome f-list folken.
Those of you who follow me on Twitter may have already seen this request but I figured I post it here too.
I've found myself back with CD's as I don't have an auxiliary input in the head unit for my new car. I am wondering what to listen to.
This is where all you awesomezord folks come in.

Please help me put together the CD that I should have in my car. Or even just suggest one that is already out there.

Thanks guys.

/hugs

it creates a cloud of words you use.

So last night I put a down payment on a car pending a Road Worthy inspection. It has one from a month ago, But I'm entitled and it's the most money I've ever spent on anything.

It's a 2004 Holden Commodore VZ Executive.
It's a nice car, the outside is fine and there is only a couple of cracks on the speaker cover on the rear passanger side. (That's left over her for my US friends.) Performs nicely, The inside is a bit dirty so I'm looking to get that detailed and then I need to add some seat covers. A scruffy white dog on grey seats as we come into summer is not a good idea. Oh, and It's blue. I like Blue...

Anywho, Here it is. I'm just waiting on the road worthy and then I'm handing over a decent chunk of my saving. Although I did get the price down a fair bit. Helped that they guy I bought it from is running a tour at the Balnarring races and one of my Dad's oldest friends is on the board of directors. /grin

If you're interested, here's the pictures that I saw that made me go and check it out.

She tends to drag her basket to what ever room I am in and curl up in it until I get up, at which point she walks on my heel and looks hopefully at the front door. Oh and on the way home from walks she always runs up a retaining wall (about 6ft high) and then waits patiently for me to get there so she can jump onto my shoulder and ride for a little bit then waits for me to crouch down so she can jump off.

Considering repairing the old ute (truck) that I have back when I worked with my Dad, or if I should replace it with a 1975 Celica that looks absolutely gorgeous (Think like a smaller version of the car from Supernatural for a rough idea) or a 2000ish model of something else. I'm not really a car person, But I do like the older tougher looking ones.

Over in the Tiggy community I have posted the fourth chapter of "Green means go"
Here is a link for anyone who is interested: "Green's Birthday Blues." Enjoy, and let me know what you think.

I'm sure that most of you have noticed that while I havn't posted anything myself recently I have been annoying everyone I. The commen threads of everyone else's posts. Basically I have been un-unable to come up with anything relly worth sharing for a while, except for a littl le piece of ficcness I have been working on which should be done soon. Intact t was done but then a certain talented artist of the rabbit variety sort of kicked writer me on the face and he got a bunch more words all scrambled up in his brain. Just working it to point where I can call it done enough to post again.

In other news, it is stinking hot here and I have a new office at work. I'm now sharing with our graphics guy, which is fine as the office is more than twice he size than either of us had before and we give each other plenty of space. Also, we are friends outside of work which is cool.

Also, today was a day mostly full of epic fail and reeked of suckitude. I'll elaborate later. Right now it's late and that gross sticky muggy kind of hot. I can barley work the keypad on my phone rght now lol.

Everybody please do me a favour and have an awesome day in whatever you are doing, as you guys are awesome!

H-E-Double-Hockey-Sticks Yes.

My job is awesome. I work like crazy, but I am part of a small team in a university doing some pretty radical things with regards to education. Learning and applying all the time.

Five to ten years? More of the same? Maybe a bit higher up, or teaching, maybe a cop but that might destroy me emotionally.
More importantly with a family and a home for us... /grin

This one is for you Chelle.

I was up lat working and while I was waiting for some code to commit at midnight I started watchinf Scooby Doo; The Mystrey Begins.

So very tired, and I was trying to be quiet. I LOVE this movie.
It's like the cartoon but better. The Cast were great.

My complaints ae only that it's 2 am and I don't have a sequel to watch...

Thanks for putting it on my radar Chelle, otherwise I never would have known about it. /hugs

I'd say partner, But I'm single. When I was sick a while back my Dad dropped in from work to see how I was doing. That was really nice.
Usually I just have my loyal hound trying to place nurse maid. She lays on the foot of my bed and rests her muzzle on my ankle.

 Ok, so I normally do this in Twitter but I thought I'd share it over LJ.
( My 'live' comentary )</div></div>

/grin. I kid.

It is really my own stupid fault for opening LJ up on my Sunday before I have managed to track down the latest RPM episodes. Sounds like some people whose opinions I respect were not impressed. Bit I'll remain quietly hopeful. Last week was win...

The hunt is on.

Meme from buni_in_the_sky

Basically, you comment to the person doing the meme, and they give you five subjects to talk about. And then people comment on your entry, and you give them five subjects. She gave me these;

1. Power Rangers
2. Your dog, Pip (I think that's his name right?)
3. Your future
4. Country Music
5. Favorite Movies

( Response )

 Firstly, Sweet sugary candy and everything else that tastes good! What the get-out happened to RPM?!
I mean it was a good show, the best season of PR we've ever had, and then this? Now I may just be high on chemicals and diet coke right now, But that is with out a doubt one of the biggest steaming piles of AWESOMEZORD EVER!!!!

There was brilliant fight work, great shots, the acting was on the ball and the drama! I literally got goosebumps. 

I mean honestly, this is my favorite TV show anywhere right now. It's on my list with Due South for Pete's sake. I am sitting here practially screaming at my modem to get ep 26 faster.This is so good. I mean really really good. It's like suddenly the sky is blue and the sun is out. (weather his is really bad right now) This is just so AWESOMEZORD!!!

Wow, I think that is my first real 'Fan-gasim'... And that was only after the first of TWO episodes!

Also I was out doing the food shopping thing this morning and on a whim I made an appointment to get my hair done, at an actually hair dressers as opposed to a barber like I have all my life.

So I sat there for a touch over an hour and a half and they put all sorts of foil and stuff in there. I'm sure it's all old hat to you ladies but it was a new thing for me.

I even read fashion magazines while I was under some lampy thing...

Take that masculinity! lol.
Oh, next ep is down..... /flails.
