Clint Barton's birthday?
Sep. 4th, 2012 01:46 pmFirst and most importantly: a call for information!
I've checked wikipedia and the Marvel wiki, but I want to be sure that I'm not missing some random mention that everyone except for me knows about.
Is there an established birth date for Clint Barton?
I need to know For Reasons (yes, ficcing reason, OK I admit it).
This thought prompted by working out a timeline for the Damage Limitation series. There is a timeline. With several more fics plotted. My crackerific series that started with a dubious one shot has an *arc*. What the hell, guys?
I also made the discovery this morning that I'd accidentally used the name of a minor Marvel character as an OC in a fic *headdesk* I've added a note to the fic and vowed to check every bloody database completely before I name any other OCs. Oh, Marvel, so many minor characters!
Had a lovely long weekend, marred only by the epic headache of epicness that lasted from early Friday morning to early Monday morning. Oh god, that was such a stupid headache.
We have some stuff from the vet to help with the hairball/cat barf situation with the cats and we are now three days barf free. Phew! I discovered last week that I have my limits when it comes to how much cat barf I can tolerate cleaning up.
Yesterday my aunt and cousins came to visit and we did a massive roast beef dinner that was rather fabulous. I can say that because the meat and the Yorkshires were mother's responsibility. I performed my usual Goddess of Roast Potatoes role and had good reviews, although I personally think there was a bit too much oil and they definitely needed a larger pan. I may also have cut the potatoes a tiny bit too small. Maybe half an inch diameter too small.
Every time, I feel like I learn something new. At least they weren't bland (Thanksgiving 2011) or overdone (Christmas 2011) so they're an improvement.
Fahre - if this sounds like me and fic, you can see that my obsessive need to review and fix things isn't just confined to my writing :-D
The other adventure over the weekend was hitting the Avengers at the cinema. For viewing number four :-D Every bit as awesome as I remember and I noticed a few things that I hadn't spotted before. Most importantly, I noticed that Natasha's Widow's Sting gets used against a Chitauri during one the big battle sequence and I nearly squeed out loud.
My Natasha fangirling, see me go.
I actually endured 3D for this showing. I figured that as I already had a horrid headache, it couldn't make things too much worse and I was right about that. The 3D wasn't as distracting as I thought it would be (and I concede, I spotted a few things that I hadn't noticed in 2D showings due to the different perspective) but I still prefer my films in 2D.
Mostly due to the discomfort of the glasses and my general feeling that 3D doesn't add enough to the experience to warrant it being as popular as it is.
