Project: Do Apps Over Thanksgiving Break is turning out to be a total bust (I already have ideas for a second Dreadcharacter, this is bad). Also, I do not have enough plot. steamtrek and fleets people who want to hash anything out, drop me a line here, and I will creep on your concepts and get back to you asap! :>

Also, regarding my schedule: I am starting a daily dose of Ambien at 11:00 p.m. CST, so I will be out of commission from that point every night for the foreseeable future. However, I shall endeavor to be around more during the day, and I am always reachable by e-mail!

P.S. I promise to get back to each and every one of you telling you why your characters are awesome. It shall be my Thanksgiving present to RPdom.

Review - Jennifer's Body

Jennifer's Body is a tale of two movies, not of maintext versus subtext but two seperate movies fighting for dominance in which, ultimately, the oft-told (and tired) conventional one wins.

This basically sums up my feelings with the movie.

I enjoyed a lot of it. The actresses were very good--Megan Fox gave a lot to the character that the script didn't--and the visuals were pretty cool, but in the end it was just as disappointing as I expected it to be, if not more. That's a good review, though, without much spoilers, so if you're curious...

So I was going to write this lovely happy entry today about how this morning, teh boy came in from checking on the dogs across the street and then climbed into bed and was FREEZING COLD and how I was yelling at him for being a sparklepire and then started pondering how the idea of sharing a bed with someone who is always FREEZING COLD and never ever gets warm could ever be even remotely sexy, BUT

I'm too rageful to do that because my editing client (for whom I spent two days working through his ridiculous chemistry paper on chicken selenoenzymes and hepatocytes and blah blah blah it was like dropping my eyes in HCl) refuses to take an hour out of his weekend to chat with me about the editing suggestions like he agreed to do before he sent me his paper because he has to "prepare to examination."

I e-mailed my professor and he was like, "No, you have to chat with this guy or else you fail" so I'm kind of irate right now and hating people.

Just caught the back end of the IJ Black Friday sale. Yay cheap permanent account :)

Venus' Nipples is now posted over at hd_career_fair!

GUYS, LOOK, IT GOT POSTED. FINALLY. Awesome.

I finished NaNo this morning. The book isn't complete by any stretch of the imagination, but I hit the 50k and I'll keep on going until it's done. I have a small amount of faith in myself that I haven't had in a long time where my writing's concerned.

As for my unintentional run at RPWriMo, if I count Draco's app and all, I'm fairly certain I smashed through 30k days ago. Quite possibly even without the opus of Draco.

I'm so tired, but I feel accomplished. Now I'm going to go fight some Black Friday crowds. Because THAT is so sane, right?

IT IS ONLY TWO MONTHS BEYOND THE DUE DATE. ONE MONTH SINCE THE END OF THE FEST. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? IT IS DONE!

I FINISHED THE HELL OUT OF THAT hd_career_fair FIC, AND IT IS DONE. EDITED AND SPARKLY AND DONE.

:D



The capslock was necessary. Sorry.

I effing love Amanda Peet. I always group her together with Piper Perabo in my mind, but have no idea why. Is it the big lips? The sunny smile? The 90s movies? I DO NOT KNOW.

AMANDA PEET

Somebody I watch recently (within the last month or so) posted icons of Nico Tortorella. And yes, I'm making my own set of him, but still... I'd love to know who it was. I'm like going through icon journals until I can't see straight and just not finding it, and going back through my flist is just way way way too sloggy. *sighs* And I don't think it even goes back far enough.

Happy ritual sacrifice with pie day, everyone!

I tried to feed Narcissa some turkey.

She wasn't interested.

My cat is weird, y'all.

( Test )

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy turkey day to everyone on the other side of the world, which I believe is most of you? ♥♥♥ Have a good day and eat some turkey for me! :D

Vote for my friend, please. Come on, look how gorgeous she is. You can only vote once per day, but can vote multiple times, so do it every day you remember. Which should be every day.

So this narrative of sorts (the first part, rest assured I WILL BE CONTINUING THIS) is introducing you to a character that all of the played characters will know and interact with: Lucy Michaelson, Librarian of San Francisco. It is largely introduction, so I apologize if this isn't thrilling.

( Meet Lucy: nursing graduate student and, unknown to her, the next Librarian. )

My applications, in order of priority (based on time hold was made, amount finished, and due date): exchanging, raiderof, [journal-less military dyke for fleets]. Why do I do this to myself.

Also:

Comment below and I will tell you which of your characters that I've played against are my favourites and why I love them. Then repost this in your own journal.

Bah bah black sheep.
