*spams*

So, in order to take a leeeeetle of the sting out of last night's wibbly thread of d00m, I offer a small anecdote, that you all might have a chuckle at my expense.

I work at Eddie Bauer (clothing store chain, for all you non-US folks), and decided to do a bit of shopping on my shift last night. I picked out a new top, umbrella with-cool-squishy-gel-handle, and a wallet because mine's falling apart. My manager came over to ring me up, looked at my purchases, and then looked up at me with an "ooooooookay" expression on his face. I looked down at what I'd piled on the counter, confused, and then did a huge mental facepalm.

Everything. Was. Bright. Pink.

It takes incredible talents, skills, gifts etc. to do such a terribly tricksy thing, now dunnit.

When I start carrying around a spear and making friends with wolves, then I'll be worried.

I would like to think that I would be safe until I actually started turning physically into a rat.

However, I have found myself voluntarily reading FAR too many medical articles lately. And re-reading science fiction that I read in high school (circa September 1976-June 1980, so...MWPP-era).

So...yeah.

Wearing floor-length clothing in dark colors? Check.
Telling people things, then staring at them until they come to the right conclusions? Check.
Tendency to sit still enough my classmates think i'm dead? Check.

.....

At least its not Arithon bleeding through?

Fortunately, the worst I've been infected with is a tendancy for Snow to influence my wardrobe. Considering my other characters, it could be much much worse.

.. you could develop a compulsive sweeping habit?
