 ...did you know that Tyrannosaurus Rex lived in family groups? In the unlikelihood of  a 'Jurassic Park' scenario, I feel I'm safe in finding this fact rather endearing.

And I just got this from physicsworld titled 'The Quantum Life'. Pretty fascinating stuff. I'm a bit annoyed that that's the only one out of three articles I wanted to read that I apparently have access to. To send me email notification for articles I'm not allowed to read is such teasing (and they seemed so interesting too), bordering on cruel...! *sniffs*

EDIT: Coming across this article is one of those bizarre coincidences. I was actually (loosely) discussing Shah Hussain yesterday on my way home from the NT with athenethequeen and here he is mentioned by name in a Times online article.

( First, the dinosaurs... )


Anyway. I really shouldn't be judging such awesome creatures by our standards. I mean, we're stupid.

( Dorian Gray; Spoilers ahead ). 

Ah, I don't know. It was just generally disappointing. I don't know if it's because I ate a snicker's bar before watching it, or drank sparkling water or whatever. It all seemed a bit pointless...

...with absolutely nothing to say about today's celebrity culture, actually. Sorry Mr Director, but maybe you should try for another film studies thesis because you were talking out of your arse. Grrr.

*coughs*

I have been absolutely pathetic this week. I did go out to the British library with athenethequeen , but that's been about it. So, I missed several comedy shows, several trips to various London markets and two plays at the NT. I really don't know what's wrong with me - I'd like to think I'm missing Nigeria (or at least, Chinyenye) but I think I'm just being truly slothful. I have done practically none of the outside reading or general work that I was meant to, and have been out of bed by noon on two days out of five. I'm not even mildly melancholic so I suspect it's the whole 'one week to Uni' kicking in. Wonderful.
