Bored bored bored bored (repeat to fade)

[jadesfire]

When I'm working, it's about this point of the evening that I really start climbing the walls. I've read my f-list several times, and have to stop myself from pressing 'refresh' every two minutes as I try to remember that other people, you know, have lives and things. I still refresh my email every two minutes on the basis that you never know.

I've shelved every book that was out, I've checked and rechecked the renewals email account (nada) and I'm just starting to contemplate the various ficlets I want to write. The Watching Years is completely and utterly stalled, but I've got a few other thoughts to play with. But the boredom overtakes even that.

I've decided that the discussion group should have its own comm, so as not to interfere with the smooth running of the library - I'm going for "tw_fic_club" unless anyone has any more inspired ideas. Will create tomorrow, ready for chatting next week some time. I could do coursework, but the notes are at home. *sigh*

I am therefore forced to fall back on memage:
[gakked from pretty much everyone]

Name a character and I'll tell you three (or more) facts about them from my own personal pseudo-canon.

Fictional or original characters (all the minor characters in The Waiting/Wandering Years have full back-stories. yes, really, all of them), or pick someone random from my interests list.

If you get no reply, I've actually died of boredom. Or gone home.

EDIT: The latter is now true! Thanks guys, you're lifesavers :)

I'd ask about the memory map, but I'm not sure I'd understand the answer...

Marion:
1. She was really, really good at English at school. If she hadn't joined Torchwood, she probably would have gone on to teach.
2. Hugh was her first boyfriend, her first kiss, her first everything.
3. She has a sister who lives in London.

Doug:
1. He's a maths prodigy, who was badly bullied for it at school. Oh, and he had a crush on his maths master (which didn't help with the bullying)
2. His mother was an invalid, which is why they couldn't get to the shelter during the air raid in which she was killed.
3. He wanted to be a pilot when he was a little boy, but the air raid shattered his nerves too much. But he had a real 'thing' for pilots, hence his (not so subtle) crush on Jack.

Hope that's suitably distracting

Nicely distracting, yes, thank you. :)

The concept of a memory map is easy. It's a list of where in a computer's memory everything is stored. It's the figuring out where to put everything that's the headache.

Easy to you, maybe.

I should be bored more often! I've filled nearly half an hour thanks to you guys :)
