I just posted my last kinkfest prompt, after banging it out in the space of about an hour and a half. Which I've been doing far too often this round. *headdesk* Even when I was busy with school, I used to have my prompts written out well in advance. This month, writing was like pulling teeth and I usually wound up having to come up with something either the night before or the day of. I really think my quality suffered.

Maybe I need a break. It's not as though I don't have a metric ton of crocheting to do, after all. *zoom zoom yarn becomes blanket, alakazam!*

Thanksgiving was actually very nice. I baked the pumpkin pie (and it turned out amazing, thankyouverymuch!), Mom made gravy from scratch, and Dad did pretty much everything else. He'd wound up getting a twenty-five pound turkey because that's all he could find. It barely even fit in the oven. So, uh... anyone wanna come over for turkey sammiches? XD It's really good turkey, too - usually I could take it or leave it, but Dad did a really good job. I suppose that's a good thing if you're going to have leftovers anyway.

EDIT: Oh god, lol. Dad put up the Peanuts characters today (see this post) and has a spotlight shining on Sally so it casts the shadow of her head right on the front window. I... never realized how much her head looked like the Bat signal before. XDDD This calls for a crossover, you know. "Good grief, we need a hero!" "I've got an idea. Sally, hold still." "What are you doing, you blockhead!?"

.......oh god, my brain.

We have a new dog. She's the sweetest thing, really. She's just incredibly hyper. And she wants attention all the time. Even though I knew dogs are naturally like that, I'd gotten used to first, Max being old and too enfeebled to run around and then, after Max had passed, not having anything more hyper than cats (which, while they are sometimes hyper, they aren't 60 lbs and hyper all the time...). We (my parents and I) guess that she's about a year old (give or take) because she's had at least one litter of puppies. And that litter was a small litter (only 3 puppies), so we think that was her first litter. Anyway, her name is Faylinn and, while she's so sweet and loving and cuddly, she's also jumping about like a puppy. And messing with the cats' toys instead of her own.

You know, aside from mentioning Faylinn and her serious hyperness, I don't really remember why I decided to post today. I'm blaming that on the fever that I probably have (but am to lazy to check for). Fevers (and colds, actually) fry my brain to mush.

Here's a pic of her: ( right here )

I have managed a little writing, it's just all personal things that I'm not posting in public. I'm hoping to get more of my massively overdue prompts done and up soon.

That said, I'd signed up for no_true_pair with not one, but two lists. The prompt lists were posted and... I am so pwn3d.

( The Devil May Cry list, with OC's I've been meaning to write for a year now )

( The Crossover is Crack list, with some neat gems )

This should be fun, really!

Last night I dreamed I was pregnant. Oddly enough, this did not induce gibbering panic, though it did occur to me to wonder how this had happened seeing as how I'm still a virgin. But even then it didn't seem like quite so big a deal: I just went about my day, going to work and all, just with the constant presence of a baby bump riding along with me.

In other news, ow headache. Early bedtime.

Posted over here for those who might be inclined. Completely not necessary, but some people have asked, so there you go. :-)

There's a song on Overclocked Remix's FF7 album Voices of the Lifestream that reminds me, worryingly enough, of the romantic music from Princess Bride. Which is giving me some weird-ass mental images, let me tell you. Of course, it's a nice break from the unrelenting waves of angst the FFVII crowd has been beating me with lately. Hello. My name is Cloud Strife. You killed a metric buttload of people. Prepare to die.

*ahem*

So work today was... well. First, the water heater had broken last night, so the building resembled a kicked anthill while everybody dealt with the floodwaters. Meanwhile, there were still animals to be seen to, so there was me wrestling a half-dozen FRIGGIN HUGE DOGS in and out of their runs all by my onesie (seriously, guys, there was this one dog who outweighed me by about fifty pounds and he absolutely refused to go back inside. It took me fifteen minutes just to get him through the door, no exaggeration.). And let us not even mention the massive cat in whose Cheerios somebody evidently pissed, the massive fragrant piles of poo, and ah yes, the puddles everywhere. And did I mention we had no hot water? Yeah, the water heater had asploded, so.

Suffice to say it was not one of those days where I was done by ten and could sit around reading trashy paranormal romance novels the rest of the time.

Luckily, I have the day off tomorrow, so I can catch up on my writing! :D *peeks at next kinkfest prompt* ...oh god, motorcycle porn. Iiiii... think I'll start on that tomorrow. XD

Tonight it will be 22 degrees.

Tomorrow night it will be 18 degrees.

Did South Carolina get moved to the North Pole while I wasn't looking?
