Dratted living alarm clock

[maderr]

My cat decides when I get up. Me, being usually at least half-asleep (and more like 3/4), I don't immeditiately get this. Anytime during the week, if I sleep in past 5:30 he appears to give me unmitigated hell. And by that he demands to be petted and adored until I'm fully awake, at which point he runs off...only to come back in like three minues if my lazy ass is still in bed.

On the weekends, he doesn't usually bother me until 6:30, 7:00.

Yes, I could close my door. But then he does this piteous scratching, mewling thing. And the felines like sleeping with me. Besides, I hate slepeing in so really it all works out for the best. Though if they puke in my room one more time I'm going to enjoy my new mittens with much much relish.

Now for coffee.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. ;_;

Uh, in the order of however they pop into my head: Bronze, Copper, Steel, Iron, Tin, Platinum... Uh, metals, let me see... Aluminium? Brass, Titanium.. . Is Mercury a metal? It is, isn't it? And stuff like Sodium, Plutonium, Potassium? o_o;

...I need a periodic table. :P

Hmm... Chromium? Magnesium? ZINC! I can't believe I forgot that. =_=;;;;

Cobalt? Silver, Lead... Tungsten? (Reminds me of light bulbs. :P)

The other ones in the periodic table just sound weird. :P

You are both evil and good to me. It's so hard to tell sometimes which you7're being ^_~

Hmmm....Nickel, Brass, Zinc for the three...I think Silver for the one they're bitching about the whole time. Thogh two of them are brother so I guess they should be related name-wise? Where are all the science geeks on my list? They could help me with all this ponderous decision making. I like the idea of calling one "tin" but his name really being Platinum. Hrmm...this will take lots and lots of pondering.

Yes, silver always saves the day. Turns them all green. XD

^__________^ *wubs*

I think brass is a combination of copper and tin? Uhm... I know bronze is also a combination, and of copper and something... But I forget. x_X;;;;;;;

Hee hee hee. If you want brother-names maybe you should look to the melded metals?

[kiyoshi-chan.livejournal.com]

Ooo, and I think zinc and copper can be hooked up to form a very primitive type of battery, although it requires solutions of those metals. ^^;

If keep being so damn useful, you're going to find yourself still my slave when we are both eighty and still being silly slasher fangirls.

Hee hee hee. You know that isn't actually punishment right? XD XD XD (It's sooooooooo much fun. o/~)

[maderr.livejournal.com]

Hee hee! ^_^

*SNRK* The font I can actually read on that icon is SOOOOOOOOOOOO appropriate. On the other hand, the implication is a bit off. XD;;;;; What does the little font say, anyway?

[maderr.livejournal.com]

I thought it amusing, if a little bit off.

Not sure. I could never figure it out. But now I want to try again. Gimme a few.

Brass is as alloy of copper & zinc.
Bronze is an alloy mainly of copper, zinc, & tin.

Just for info that might be useful, If you try to use dissimilar metals in a piping system, the water can cause Galvanic Corrosion. To prevent this, one normally uses a Dielectric Union. You should have one of these on your hot water heater, since copper & steel are not good to have together.

& If you're going to do a story with disimilar metals for character names, maybe use "Dielectric Union" as the name for the group? Use "Galvanic" as a code word for something becoming "bad?"

& the only reason I think I'm mentioning it is I've had to deal with dielectric stuff at work this past week, so it's still fresh in the brain.

Thank you thank you thank you! ^_^ I'm not used to you guys helping with my story, that would totaly rock! I owe you one!
