Random stuff

[misaffection]

So today? Hmm. Bits good, bits very, very bad. *sighs*

Coming across pictures from the Oz SGA convention first thing was pretty good. Epsecially the hysterical picture of David Hewlett with sonic screwdrive in a very Ninth Doctor pose *sniggers*

And the story of him and Paul McGillion (Beckett, SGA) cracks me up no end.

Um. I've been writing more of the McKay angst fic. It's been going well, over 1000 words today, but it's getting into an area that's hard to write. I don't know... how much to say here because it hits on a personal level and... well yeah. There's a lot of stuff about me that you don't know.

Anyhoo, I finally went onto Coldplay's site to transcribe the lyrics to White Shadows, as pinched for my lj banner ^^ up there. And reading the actual words (rather than what I think I hear) has been a shock. It's even closer than I thought. I need to vid this song. But I can't. Must request it.


White Shadow; Coldplay

when I was a young boy
I tried to listen
and I want to feel like that
little white shadows blink and miss them
part of a system I am
if you ever feel like
something missing
things you never understand
little white shadows sparkle and glisten
part of a system plan

all this noise I'm waking up
all this space I'm taking up
all this sound is breaking up

maybe you'll get what you wanted
maybe you'll stumble upon it
everything you ever wanted
in a permanent state
maybe you'll know when you've seen it
maybe if you'll say it you'll mean it
and when you find it you'll keep it
in a permanent state, a permanent state

when i was a young boy I tried to listen
don't you want to feel like that
you're part of the human race
all of the stars and the outer space
part of a system I am

all this noise I'm waking up
all this space I'm taking up
I cannot hear, you're breaking up

maybe you'll get what you wanted
maybe you'll stumble upon it
everything you ever wanted
in a permanent state
maybe you'll know when you've seen it
maybe if you'll say it you'll mean it
maybe you'll find you're completed
in a permanent state, a permanent state

swim out on a sea of faces
the tide of the human race
an answer now is what I need
see it in the new sun rise and
see it break on your horizon
come on love
stay with me
