Anthrax and spiders, plus empty savers

Heard an interesting version of Queen's We Will Rock You just now... darn that Rick Rubin for almost giving me a heart attack! :P

And this thing restarted RIGHT when I was going to check Translink for the next bus out of here... great! :P

High-scoring words of the day so far:

SAVERS (200 points) - against Ursula P. [two 5W, hook off LINK to make SLINK]
EMPTY (400 points) - against Wendy S. [two 5W]

I had a dream where Billie invited me over to her house, but my parents had issues with that. While we were in our Mazda MPV van (which we haven't had for at least fifteen years!), they told me that it wasn't very good to go along with that, because I didn't know if there were vampires lying in wait to decimate me. Apparently, they'd seen this on a poster near a graffiti-filled wall. Billie's parents then decided to invite my parents over as well, so Mom and Dad could see that nothing of the sort was going to happen. They accepted the invitation for some odd reason, and were perfectly fine with things after that. However, I wanted to stay over a second night. The dream ended with Dad telling me that it wasn't a good idea, and trying to reason with me on this. Weird!

Facebook quizzes taken from Karla, Kaitlin, and Morgana:

Leslie completed the quiz "What is your greatest fear?" with the result spiders aka arachnophobia. Eight-legged terrestrial arthropods make you tingle, and they produce horrific nightmares. You often find yourself scared to go into a wooded area because you fear a tick bite and contracting Lyme disease. Your childhood consisted of neighbors placing Daddy Long Legs on your shoulder so you could send a blood-curdling scream into every home on the block! You would walk across glass, watch Friday the 13th, and even sleep with the lights out, but you would never hike in the woods.

Leslie completed the quiz "Which race would you belong to in Middle-Earth?" with the result Ents. Ents! The Ents are humanoid trees, shepherds of the forest. You were awakened by the elves to help protect the forests. Ents are very peaceful creatures, but are very tall and strong with the ability to tear apart rock and stone. Careful and protective, you never say anything unless it's worth taking a long time to say.

Leslie completed the quiz "Which infectious disease are you?" with the result You are anthrax. A person dies from you after inhalation of your spores, or through eating or coming in contact with animals who have ingested you. Once contaminated, you quickly multiply and kill your host by producing two lethal toxins. Death can take from two days up to a month from the cold-like symptoms, which then lead to serious breathing problems, shock, and the eventual fatality. Large amounts of antibiotics have been shown to be able to stop you. A vaccine is available, but you are also known to show up as an antibiotic-resistant strain. You're so popular that an American band adopted you for their name, and military researchers make gobs of money figuring out how to effectively spread you around.

Leslie took the What Lord of the Rings character are you? quiz and the result is Gollum. You are GOLLUM because you are rather obsessive and single-minded, especially when it comes to precious possessions. You may need to get some therapy. Seriously, think about it! On the up side, you are very determined and can be quite clever. Don't make the mistake of constantly plotting revenge. It doesn't pay. (... what the heck.)
