Just a typical morning in my head

*thumps head*

*watches idea fall out*

*squints at idea*

Okay, I'm trying to write the next Diary of a Mountie entry and this idea has no place in it ANYWHERE. Mostly because I've already done enough time dislocation as it stands, switching the dates of two gold rushes and moving the Frank Slide through about thirty years of time.

*kicks idea in the ribs* You be quiet. The last thing I need is Federal Marshal Sam Gerard on holiday in London.

*wanders off to work on Diary some more, leaving idea on floor where it belongs*

Hey, [livejournal.com profile] cadhla! Look! Froggies!

Purple frog delights scientists

The chubby, seven-centimetre-long, purple amphibian with a pointy snout was found hopping around in the Western Ghats, a range of hills in western India. Scientists have given it the name Nasikabatrachus sahyadrensis, from the Sanskrit word for nose (nasika); batrachus, meaning frog; and Sahyadri, the name for its mountain home. Its head appears too small for its body and it looks more like a squat, grumpy blob than a living creature. . .


Honestly, it looks like something out of a Japanese cartoon about small spunky children who spend far too much time with incredibly diverse monsters.
