Christmas Drabble: Dunstan Family [December 23] eckletricity butbutitsbecca is cruel and requested not only Lavender and Belle, but also Kieran, Ariella and Jasmine. ( Jenny had to hide her amusement as she peeked into the living room where the children were playing... ) 1 +

[December 23] tryslora Given Nate, Lili, and Draco... I'm really glad I have one of them who is slightly better at not putting their foot in their mouth. Or rather, Nate only does it because it's almost impossible NOT to do it when you've survived unscathed because you miss everything. Whereas Draco and Lili honestly mean what they say, and sometimes even mean well by it, and it just comes out horribly horribly wrong. I need to do journal entries for everyone, and I think owl posts for Nate and Draco about presents. Or an OOC post about prezzies since I so suck at figuring out gifts. And I'm afraid I'm missing people, too. 0 +

[December 20] lauren711 First off, I am highly amused by this photoshoot that was in Entertainment Weekly. It's the cast of Big Bang Theory reenacting some big entertainment moments of the year. Two of them that Kaley Cuoco's in are actually other pbs! Penny as Emily Penny as Sue Love these so much, lol. I'm going to make an icon of the one where she's Taylor Swift cause it's a great expression. And I am up for any and all threads at NYE! I would list what I wanted, but I'd be listing everything. Maybe in the next day or so I'll be able to get a specific list going. 3 +

[December 20] hprpgprincess [ mood | hungry ] The sky outside is purple :) I need to finish Rols' strengths and weaknesses, history, war stance, and third person sample, which I already know what's going to be written. I desperately need to get her done tonight and wish I'd finished Hannah for mulligan_mods earlier so I could've focused on Rols all weekend. And she's at rols, if anyone wants to do backplot with her or anything, I'd really like that for Christmas. And also I am hungry. 2 +

[December 20] tryslora The book is done. At 76,116 words, and thirty chapters, and a really bad set of plotting... it's actually done. I need to go do some family things, and I'll be back for gaming after that. I wrote over 5300 words today to pull this off. I think I ache. 2 +

[December 20] lauren711 So ready to start doing NYE threads. I can't believe we're already at the end! I don't even have a whole lot of specific stuff planned for the party, but I just want to do a bunch. And I'm in a baking mood lately. Simple baking, at least. Stuff with a mix, mostly. I'm about to start making pumpkin muffins, and I'm making these cookies to take with me to my parents for Christmas, using candy cane kisses instead of the Hugs. Also, I need to clean my kitchen and my bathroom. I'll do the bathroom first, I'm sure. I hate doing any kind of kitchen chores. Or I'll just sit around all afternoon and watch 30 Rock on dvd or something like that. Whatever. 1 +

[December 20] tryslora A quick note: my plans for today (family Christmas party in CT) have been canceled. Thus, I'm home! And sort of maybe online. BUT... as a consolation for missing the party for the third year in a row, I'm writing. This means I'm tagging, albeit very very slowly. And I'm crunching away at The Novel (which STILL needs a freakin' name) because I am so close to the end... I'm wondering if I can get it done today. Maybe. *fingers crossed* 0 +

DIANNA AGRON; 252 icons; update [December 20] spock [ music | Glee Cast - My Life Would Suck Without You ] 252 new icons. This brings me 6 icons over my most iconned PB of David Tennant (I thought Zooey Deschanel was the most, but I seem to have overstated how many icons I had of her) and brings the total of Dianna icons to 562. Will more come with the second half of season 1? I have no idea. 0 +

[December 19] lauren711 I think we're having a plague of computer problems going around the group lately. Here's mine... Normally when I have my laptop plugged in, the screen is bright/normal, and darkens a bit when I go to battery power. Ever since yesterday, it's been the opposite, darkened when it's plugged in and bright when it's on battery. I've tried leaving it off for awhile or letting it sleep, I've checked power settings, have no idea what's up. Any ideas what's up, or how to fix it? The only responses I've got from asking around other places were to check the power settings, but there's nothing in there about this, and I haven't changed anything anyway. I can't figure out what's going on. It all started when I went up to my parents on Thursday night, I had used the computer there, and then I left it on overnight but closed it, on battery power. No idea if that'd have anything to do with it. By the morning, it had just shut itself off. Then when I got back here on Friday, it was like this. So, anyone got any ideas what I could do? It's a PC, by the way, Windows XP. 2 +

DIANNA AGRON; 114 icons; update [December 18] spock [ music | Kellie Pickler - Santa Baby ] 114 new icons. 0 +

[December 16] tryslora Brain is full and to-do list is overloaded. Iconwise, I've finished up icons from Make It or Break It episode 2, but I'm not posting them until I've also iconned episodes 3, 4, & 5. However, I'm using Josie Loren as a pb for a character I'm apping, PLUS I need the rest of the Nico Tortorella icons from episode 3 done for Nate, so I'm trying to push forward on these quickly. Also, still working on iconning HBP for everyone not Draco, AND I'm going to finish iconning Behind the Magic for the same. I'm mid-app for Liliana (for Mulligan), and knowing adds are done on Saturday means I don't HAVE to burn through it right this second. She's bubbling away in the back of my mind and I have a fairly solid view of her. Knowing her PB really helps in this case, because Josie Loren's expression are soooo fluid. So it's obvious that Lili wears her emotions right there in full view no matter what she's thinking or feeling. No filter between thought and face. In PSL ramblings, Neville's very o.O about life right now, and really, that's all he can say, although flushing NEON seems to go with the expression. And perhaps a huuuuge grin. And the PSL!Draco has just made it over one massive hurdle only to slam right into the next one without managing anything like a graceful leap. I like him for the fact that he's old enough (21) that he's figured out who he is in private, but has yet to let the public discover him. He changes personality depending on where he is, and that's a factor that has leaked into Mulligan!Draco as well, although it's still very undefined there. Oh, Mulligan, how do I adore thee? I'm having a wonderful time there. Nate's alternating between bubbly and upset about Colin's death and how hurt all of his friends are. He's thinking he kind of needs to meet some nice bent guys and stop crushing on the OMFGADORABLE (but straight) Gryffindor blokes. Which doesn't actually stop him from doing so. He's like a puppy. If he had a tail, he'd wag it. Then there is Draco, who I just... gods, I adore him in ways like I adore Marcus. Or Adrian. I love me my complicated Slytherin blokes, I guess, who I have to come up with the reasoning why they did things and figure out their psychology. And Draco's best fun is that HE is trying to figure himself out, and he has no idea who he is. I just keep putting him in situations that he detests and he has a lovely time getting himself out of them. Currently he is BEYOND peeved at me, between enforced outings with Muggleborn girls, and an upcoming trip to Azkaban. I chortle with delight. And WTWB. Mmmm. *purrs delightedly* The voices are stirring again, and I'm in bliss over this because I have missed them so very much. I have to figure out some things for Marcus that are going on over the break, and he has to pull off a happy Christmas for himself, Ro, and Mabel. It will involve several things that are knitted because he has had to relieve stress somehow... work only gets him so far. Pansy has been worrying and snapping at everyone and will continue to do so until Neville (THAT IDIOT) returns from Lancaster without getting his arse killed. Then he can bloody well have his school/orphanage BACK and she'll go home and ignore him for being an idiot right up until she invites him and the children over for Christmas. And gives him decent boots since his fell apart months ago, and he's still wearing them. Someday Pansy and Neville will figure out what's going on and I swear, neither of them is going to actually believe it. Lavender, of course, is the most settled of my characters there. She has Bill, she has MATE, what else does she need? Enough rambling, and back to work for me. Suffice to say, gaming is glee, and y'all are wishing I'd been less long-winded. 7 +

[December 15] hprpgprincess [ mood | tired ] I've finally settled in up here in MA...it's very weird, since I'm actually using my laptop on a proper hard surface instead of on my lap. I'm very tired and weepy (tired because I was flying all day and weepy because I miss teh boy), but I'm staying up to go with my parent(s) to pick my brother up from the airport because they are old and tired and my father can't drink coffee because he has health issues lately. ANYWAY. Staring at bw_mods and I still have absolutely no idea who to hold, but I feel like if I don't hold someone, I won't end up holding anyone, and I don't want to do that. I'm just...really freaking tired and cranky tonight, and I can't think. Nngh. Nvm, held Rolanda Hooch and mini Keira Knightley, huzzah! /pity party with cupcakes 7 +

I want to post about how asinine it is that LJ is going to try and make people specify their gender. [December 15] tiferet93 [ mood | angry (and sick) ] However I have strep throat and need to go to bed and am succeeding mostly in putting my foot in my mouth when I comment on public posts. Ergo: The changelog is here: http://community.livejournal.com/changelog/7932846.html synecdochic's words of wisdom are here: http://synecdochic.dreamwidth.org/366609.html And I would like to note that not only is this incredibly harmful, unfair and insulting to queer, genderqueer, transgendered and intersexed people, it's also damaging to women who prefer not to specify their gender in public internet fora because they are trying to avoid harassment. There is a great deal of non-trivial statistical evidence to the effect that when female internet users are forced to identify publicly as female to strangers, they are subject to statistically significant amounts of harmful sexually harassing behaviour. A 2006 University of Maryland study found that obviously female usernames receive 25% more harassing messages in chatrooms than sexually ambiguous or male usernames do. A Girl Scout Research Institute study found that 30% of teenage girls have been sexually harassed online. In the 2008 Cyberstalking Statistics produced by Working to Halt Online Abuse, 71% of cyberstalking cases involved harassment of women and girls. Many women, especially young girls, decline to identify themselves online by gender because they do not wish to attract this kind of attention. I'm not one of them, but I certainly understand the impulse--after all, I have always been openly female and have therefore had that kind of attention. Unfortunately.

[December 12] strwberrycake Who: Joanna Podmore When: Early December 1966 Where: Podmore residence Rating: PG13-ish Notes: So this is like the 5th draft that I've come up with in the last three days. It probably still doesn't flow right, but whatever. Anyway, Joanna has had some awful boyfriends and some great boyfriends. This is the time she had the absolute worst boyfriend ever.

[December 11] lauren711 I'm getting down to the wire on all this stuff! It really just hit me now! So, the last day to do threads is Tuesday. I will be around ALL DAY that day. I am also around ALL DAY today. I'm working tomorrow, will be around tomorrow night, and I'm working Sunday but not sure what shift. I'm extraing on Monday, I so wish it was another day, but it's my last chance to extra for this year and I need the money so it's all cool, whatever. So I'll maybe be around Monday, depends on the times for filming. And I want to do so much stuff! Though whatever I don't get in can probably easily go in the New Year's party so it's not a huge deal. Still though. I still need a thread for RJ, so if anyone wants to do anything with him, please let me know! And I have to write my journals for everyone, and think of Christmas stuff, and New Year's stuff, and get my NL people all ready to go (nts: MAKE JASON ICONS!) EDIT: Turns out I made Jason icons already! Over 80 of them! So I am set on that! Score! Also in there, RL stuff. Like figuring out what the hell to get my dad for Christmas. Blargh. And message from Laur W, she's not around til Sunday night! 0 +
