They premiered a new trailer/clip thing at SDCC. It's so ridiculously, extravagently, beautifully violent that it's midn boggling. More so than Rambo, even.

Stolen from budgie, who got it from Apiphile. If any of the answers seem odd for me, it's because I've failed to erase Budgie's answers.
Or I'm weird.
You pick.

I just learned that I have Central Heterochromia.
Central Heterochromia is an eye condition in which there are two different colours in the same iris. Central Heterochromia is where the central (pupillary) zone of the iris is a different colour than the mid-peripheral (ciliary) zone. Though not studied widely, Central Heterochromia is the rarest form of Heterochromia.
Which is to say, I have a little ring of color around my pupil.
I don't have any pictures of my eyes, so you'll have to take my word for it.
I say I just learned. I was, of course, aware that I have a ring of different color around my eye. I just didn't know it was a thing. Supposedly this is rarer than having two different colored eyes, but I'm not convinced.
I looked different colored eyes because I saw a girl last week with two wildly different colored eyes. One was blue, one was brown (actually looked brownish red, but that might because the other eye was blue) and it was a little distracting.

Hurt my ankle.
Actually it's not very painful, but it just won't move the whole way, so I can't actually get my heel on the ground when I walk.
Annoying.
Hopefully it'll heel in a day or two.
This would reason number 9012 why I need to lose more weight. My muscles make demands my joints can't meet.

I actually did something very much like this when I was a teenager.
Okay, I did it twice.
Looks painful, but mostly it's just embarassing.

| Emphysema? |

Amy Winehouse apparently has emphysema.
Emphysema.
She's 24.
Man, do you know what kind of genetic bad luck and how much hard living you have to do to get emphysema at 24. That's a pretty fucking epic self destructive streak right there.
And know of what I speak when I talk about self destruction.

That's Big Fucking Turtle.
I was driving to work and I see this heap on the road. After afew seconds I realised that it was a turtle. Still alive.
Now, turtles aren't uncommon, but this dude was easily two feet from nose to tail, which is by far the biggest turtle I've ever seen in real life. I didn't know we got them that size around here, but indeed, we do.
Normally, if at all possible, I move turtles to whatever side of the road they're pointing at, because, hey, I like turtles and the road is not a friendly environment for a creature with a top speed of .00000001 miles per hour.
This turtle, on the other hand, looked an awful lot like a great big snapping turtle, and one that size could take off a finger, which would just be an incredibly stupid injury. I couldn't look myself in the eye if I lost finger to a turtle.
And indeed, the only turtles that get that big around here are snapping turtles, so go me.
I haven't been posting much lately, anywhere. I'm just flat out booked to the gills with paying writing work, so I haven't had time. But you know, that's good problem to have.

| Pain |
[22 May 2008|10:55pm] |
You know, it's never occured to me to be afraid of pain.
I don't mean that as Johnny McToughguy. I'm watching Miami Ink and some of the people are afraid of how much gettinbg a tattoo is going to gurt. I'm afraid of lots of things - most notably of falling back into depression.
But physical pain? Nope.
I blame my family. If we cried, we got told to stop or they give us something top cry about. Walk it off was the standard advice. Freaking old people.

I'm sometimes astonished that some people can even type.
"If 2 people do the same activity, say for example spinning, why does the 280 lb obese person burn more calories in 30 minutes than the 180 lb person who is in relatively good shape?"
Um, physics?
Even beyond that, it's also true that the more in shape you are the less calories you'll burn at any given activity, generally.
