h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

...'till next Christmas. My, I can hardly wait.

So did everyone have a good Christmas? Manage not to burn the turkey? Rescue that last bottle of wine from Uncle Pete before he got completlely paralytic? Escape the ? Jolly Good.

So what about the pressies? This year mine ranged from useless, through bizarre, to mildly offensive. Nah, I did get some good stuff too, but there's only so much soap a girl can use in one year. On the plus side, I now smell like mangoes. Well, at least they remembered about not eating (too much, that is... ). I also got an ironing board, which means I can no longer get away with looking scruffy all the time. Ah, such is life.

And why would my friend give me a teddy bear in a crib? I'm slightly scared to ask her actually.

Anyway, I was right about what my best present was. So big thanks to the dude who sent it to me.

And is it too much to ask that my boyfriend would send me a 'happy christmas' text? Tch, men.

Well, hope everyone else had a great Christmas, and can find something to occupy themselves with between now and new year.

Why yes, I got the most sacred of all gifts; a PSP.

Woo-hoo. I still wouldn't trade my GBA, though (it looks like a SNES! ). Is your PSP enriching your life?

But of course. Why last night at my grandmother's house I was playing it all evening while they watched dull christmas shows on TV. Normally I would have been bored out of my mind. Plus, if I were to ever make a trip to a foreign country, I could use it to watch videos on the train.

Now I just have to learn how to get it to interface with my PC so that I can get a picture from it to put as my PSP wallpaper.

What are you gonna put as the wallpaper? Actual wallpaper? Heh, the irony.

Well my actual wallpaper is blue, so if I wanted that then I could just set the PSP to blue background. Seems like a waste of space to me.

Yeah... You could have a picture of yourself! How cool would that be!

Yeah, but you'd need a really big ego for that.

Which you don't have, obviously.

Of course not.

Ah, you crack me up sometimes.

It's a gift.

I would have prefered the ability to read minds though.

Maybe you just need practice.

I tried it on my father and it doesn't work. I couldn't sense anything.

maybe he has no mind to read

Maybe you weren't trying hard enough. Here try it on me... *concentrates on projecting thoughts into Ben's mind*

No, all I'm getting is a mess of Doctor Who fantasies, at least some of which are mine.

What, even the one about... Uh, nah, let's not go there.

But if you're having fantasies where you get to be Rose, I'd be worried about you.

I'd be very worried indeed.

So if you're picking up on my thoughts, are you seeing a daydream where you're the Doctor and I'm Rose? Or are you K9?
