I was tagged by

littlebeloved to name five simple pleasures, so here is my choice:

1. Waking up next to Dorkboy in the night or very early in the morning and knowing that I can go back to sleep again and still wake up right next to him.

2. Having a few hours free to do some writing. The anticipation leaves me almost giddy.

3. Succeeding in playing Friedrich Gulda's "Play, Piano, Play" No. 6 as fast as the maestro himself.

4. Dreading having to do a day's worth of washing-up and then remembering that I actually can listen to Brendel's version of Beethoven's Pathétique on the iPod while doing it.

5. Seeing the sun rise on one of the solstices out in the open, at Stonehenge or any energy-charged place on earth and hearing the children go "Wow" in awe.

I have a date on Wednesday. :-) I'm totally excited about it.

-

wartcap will be the first LJ friend I meet in person, although not the first internet friend

I tag

Stolen from

ginny_weasley31 because I asked her three questions:

I want everyone who reads this to ask me 3 questions: no more, no less. Ask me anything you want (though I reserve the right to not answer, or to answer evasively). Then I want you to go to your journal, copy and paste this, allowing your friends (including me) to ask you anything.

Snatched from

ginny_weasley31:

If you happen to be working on some creative writing project, fan fiction, or, NaNoWriMo or what have you, post exactly one sentence (or more) from each of your current work(s) in progress in your journal. It should probably be your favorite or most intriguing sentence so far, but what you choose is entirely your discretion. Mention the title (and genre) if you like, but don't mention anything else -- this is merely to whet the general appetite for your forthcoming work(s).

2. Severus Snape - it's the voice
3. King Arthur in First Knight - he's old enough to surely know every trick how to pleasure a woman
4. Eric of PotO fame - that mask
