Send a social engineer, I don't mind at all

still really ill. coughing not quite so bad but hallucinatey dreamy state, chills, muscle aches and generally weak as a starved tribble.

oh, and the snot has started up, but the less said about that the better.

am finally watching Spooks, thanks largely to altariel1, who's become my canary in the cultural coalmine. If she likes something it's a near safe bet that I will too. it's interesting, because we're not actually particularly alike, we just tend to like the same things.

anyway, Spooks is great, and since I feel too crappy to type any more I'm going to lie down and try and find the place where I drifted off to sleep last night and watch it properly.

it's another one of those shows like Farscape and Blake's 7 that inspires really complex plot- and atmosphere-heavy dreams when I fall asleep watching it.

...won't you tell me your name?

just briefly booted up the IM, because I wanted to find out if topbit had caught the London Lurgy and I couldn't find my phone.

there were two people asking to be on my contact list. One was an ICQ number and one was a Hotmail username, and I denied both. This is because I HAVE NO IDEA WHO YOU ARE.

I don't add strangers to my contact list. I add people I've interacted with on message boards, LJ or real life but I never add anyone unless I know who they are and I've had some conversation with them already. This isn't to avoid perverts - most of my favourite people are perverts - it's to avoid stupid and illiterate people, who are more common than nitrogen and not nearly as unobtrusive.

so if you're the hotmail user with "surf" in your username or the ICQ user beginning with 15, comment here and when I know who you are I will add you next time, okay?

am not likely to be on IM much in the near future anyway. elbow still highly dodgy and the flu feels like it may finish me off yet.

in the meantime, check out scarletdemon's Feng Shui of the Penis, which made me laugh and then cough my spleen up again, but it was worth it.
