Desperate mind in search of distraction

[altariel]

It's Friday, and there are 499 words to go before I can flee my desk for the day and enjoy the thrills and spills of the Big Brother finale.

Entertain me! Quiz me! Dance for me, damn you!

ETA: to paraphrase the Great Tosser Ramsay himself: "Wordcount target? Done."

Heh. I'm looking forward to tonight.

Me dancing is right out, I'm afraid. But if you want some amusement, you could always try imagining it.

Heh, yes, that'll keep me going ;-)

One's virtual dance in your honour was cut short I'm afraid, by one virtually stubbing one's toes. And virtually falling over.

'Tis always the way...

Ouch ouch ouch! *helps you up, rubs toe*

[edge-of-ruin.livejournal.com]

Oy you! Get back to work!

We can swap if you like: I'll do your 499 words, and you can have a go at turning computer scientists' bullet points into coherent English prose.

In fact, I'll give you one for free: concupiscent. There you are, only 498 to go!

I've served my time with the prose of engineers.


concupiscent

With this you are spoiling me.

If you start right now, and don't get up to do extraneous things like make coffee, you can just about squeeze in a viewing of Smiley's People before you need to switch over.

This doesn't help with the words. Though - hey - if you just copy out the script as you watch, you're more or less bound to end up with something good.

I like your thinking, sir...

I danced! Did you see?

[altariel.livejournal.com]

I was entertained! I hope you saw!

[kendokamel.livejournal.com]

Dance for me, damn you!


Can I bring a friend? (;

*claps hands in delight!* Oh yes!

[iainjcoleman.livejournal.com]

Dance for me, damn you!

Go here, and click on "playthings", then "beatboy".

Do it.

Do it now.

That's fucked with my head even more than the close-harmony a cappella version of Wuthering Heights I heard in Borders yesterday.

*pirouettes you!*

Numfar! Do the Dance of Wordcount Target Done!

[altariel.livejournal.com]

And best of all, some if may well not suck!

*twirls veil round self in bullfight, does forward butterfly, turns, drops half of butterfly, spins until veil wraps round self, finishes with graceful flourish*

And since this is late in the day, it can celebrate both your wordcount and the watching of the Big Brother finale, which I hope lives up to your best and/or worst expectations.

*balances sword on head, does camel walk*

*applauds* Oh wow! :-D :-D

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

Trust me - you don't want to see me dance. The experience would be too painful. *g*

Aw, your ted icon is lovely!
