4 things.

This is either a) me being a better flister and posting regular stuff a little more often or b) me spamming you just a little with random me stuff. Up to you which it is =)

1. I'm so sick of waking up in the early hours of the morning with cramps. 4am this morning and this has been nearly 2 weeks now. I think too that I'm possibly putting too much faith in the restorative power of make-up this morning.

2. After I'd gone back to bed after my nasty early wake-up call, I had a Primeval dream! I admit to being just a little pissed at my brain that it never, ever provides anything Merlin-related when I sleep. *sighs* Anyway, this Primeval dream was quite amusing really - standard monster-of-the-week kind of thing where geek-boy and soldier-boy save the day - which of course is how it should be as they're my favourite characters and yes, I do give them all different names to their actual character names =)

3. I had an amusing conversation with my 5 year old nephew recently. He very earnestly was arguing with me, pretty much telling me I was clearly stupid and that of course there was no such thing as ninja's, though it was highly possible that dragons existed. ORLY? This is the same nephew who once wet his bed when he stayed over at mine and told me in the morning - with a completely straight face like it was the most believable story ever - that a policeman had come in during the night and done it, and it wasn't him.

4. I've not recced any Merlin fics lately but any that I've loved (and there haven't been too many lately, sadly) have been added to my Delicious bookmarks. If you're only going to read only one, then read Four Things One Should Know About Merlin (and One Things Nobody Knows About Arthur because it's just wonderful and will put a happy grin on your face =)

*hugs all*

*hugs* I get cramps bad too :( Fill an old sock with some uncooked rice (not instant rice, the regular kind) and heat it in the microwave for 2 minutes (more or less.) The heat feels really nice on the cramping areas :)

LMAO @ #3. Little kids can be wicked funny and say such cute things!

I'm at work and really missing my water bottle right now!

Josh is pretty funny, bless him, and he makes it even funnier by being so serious and earnest when he says these things =)

The youngest child of our family friend's is named Eitan. He is tiny. He doesn't have dwarfism or something, he's just small. At age four, he weighed 30 pounds, and 40 around age 5. At age six he's now in size 4 clothes (which is too big for him.) But, he's like a little dog; he thinks he's far bigger than he is. Once he got sugar high on chocolate and donned his superman cape and underwear (when he was four.) He proceeded to challenge my dad to a fight, with raised fists and stance, and absolutely dead serious. We were all laughing our asses off because this kid weighs about 30 pounds, and think he can beat my dad (who is over 200 and built like a quarterback, not to mention was in lay enforcement for many years and knows combat techniques.) My dad just picked him put by the ankles and held him upside down at arms-length and Eitan gave up. However, he did try it again later when the a Rabbi came over... we decided it was time for bed for him! (And NO MORE SUGAR for the weekend!)
