This Space Marine Says Sorry

Posted 9 November 2009 in by Catriona

See, doesn’t he look apologetic?

Sure, last time I used a picture to apologise for the tardiness of my updates, it was a duck. Ducks are soothing. But I thought a space marine might be soothing in its own way—for a start, it might soothe any tendency to mumble, “Man, why doesn’t she just update regularly?”

It’s marking season, as my earlier photographs showed.

But I’ll be live-blogging Doctor Who tonight—the second-last episode of the season—and I promise I’ll blog about books again, soon. As soon as I have a chance to read any.

Being a Terminator Space Marine in the 1st Company of Ultramarines and Carrying an Assault Cannon Means Never Having to Say Sorry.

Yes, but he’s kind enough to do it on my behalf because he’s sorry for the damsel in distress.

And you won’t hear me describe myself that way very often.

Actually, you should put that comment on a T-shirt.

And I’ve literally just received an e-mail saying, “Quick! Fix that typo before Tim sees it!”

That’s what I get for not moderating my comments quickly enough . . .
