Onboard Serenity, in the main hangar, watching Faith operate the telemetry as Buffy, off-camera and skimming atmo, guides in a solar altimeter probe.  It counts down with a grating, crunching sound every thousand feet as an old-school display board flicks its digits - then ... passes through zero.  Jayne gives one of those swively-eye looks and asks why ain't it crashed yet?

The graunching sound continues: useful bits of brain are challenged enough to start waking up.  Waking up?  Oh yeah, must be a dream.  It's a Joss mashup blended in with some some radio news piece about a satellite, but what's that damn noise?  Grekk! Grekk! Hnrrk! Gakk!

Ah yes, it's the cat hacking up a hairball.

Wakey wakey.

Coming in from a run, walking into the finished bathroom (with max-cost-and-hassle flush wetroom floor), bracing in the corner and hitting the shower button.  Absolutely delicious jet of hot steamy water all over my back and shoulders.  That decides my plumbing choices.  Time to cost up a pumped waste...

Travelling to Harare under a tourist visa.  Stopping time.  Assassinating Mugabe effortlessly.  Restarting time and having coffee (hotel roadside tables, cafetiere, scorched beans, raw sugar) while jeeps loaded with troops race toward the presidential palace.

Okay, the second one was clearly because I watched the Heroes catch-up last night, but if Big Bad Bob is dead this weekend, er, yeah.  It wasn't not me...
