Song of the Summer
Jun. 10th, 2016 11:53 amYesterday was long. So long it didn't finish until the early hours of this morning. There were many tears of frustration and panic but I'm almost done. Just waiting for Createspace to do its thing and then I can get back to the fun stuff : )
But right now, I'm led out with the dog, feeling like a wet noodle and trying to will myself to go get something decent to eat. Except I just have to listen to this song one more time.
Perfect song, perfect video, perfect cutie. Perfect.
Maybe just more listen : ) xxx

My First Review

A thoroughly enjoyable read, if a little gay.
Wonderful characterisation but a tangible lack of racing cars.
As written by my ex. I've no idea why he wanted to read it other than he's very supportive. Then he sent me an email to say he'd spotted two typos.
Then I got the link to say that now everyone can see my shoddy editing!! Yay!!
Click on the image to go to the download link : ) xxx
So, I'm doing the cover letter thing for the New Writers' Scheme thing, and I have to say what genre Stumble Forward falls into.
M/M Romance doesn't seem quite right to me. Yes, it's technically that but given the level of angst and heartbreak, do you think that I should say it's M/M Romantic Drama...or some other kind of thing?
And yes, I am overthinking this. How can you tell? : )
I have no idea what I'm doing : ( xx
ETA I will shut up about this eventually, I promise xx

Jan. 12th, 2016 09:25 pmSo, I just found out my short story will be included in the Valentines Anthology from Love Lane Books next month. Luckily, I was lying down already. I'm fricken excited but also kinda having an unexpected "Aw shit...I guess that means I have to work at this thing now" moment.
But in other, not unrelated news, a complete stranger – not a fangirl or RL friend or anyone who gives two shits about how I feel – read my Halloween story and really liked it! I made a complete stranger cry and feel sad \0/ Go me! So that's taking the edge off my burgeoning panic about this other thing.
Already thinking about The Further Adventures of Daniel and Elliot.
Maybe something for Easter.
*checks schedule*
*cries*

Nice things are nice : )
Nov. 1st, 2015 07:39 pmSo, today has been rather nice!
I won a thing!

This is 100% down to
wings128 who I made the thing for, and I have a sneaking suspicion may have nominated me (Actually...I have no idea! Did you?!) So, that was rather awesome.
And it's no surprise to me that so many of my flisties are on the winners rostrum, coz you guys are just wonderful and so, so talented. Congratulations to everyone : )
And then wings...again!!...posted a lovely rec of my Halloween fic! I wasn't sure anyone would read the weird little thing, so for her to make a post about it is super fucking special to me. Thank you so much, Darling : ) Thank you to
somersault_j too, for making me post it in the first place : )
And then...Lily, who has been super, super sick with kennel cough, actually hasn't coughed at all today and there's been minimal snottage too! \0/ Which is super awesome as I have a hospital appointment on Tuesday and she has to be well enough to go to daycare.
And theeeen, I got to see my neice (not really my neice but the connection is too complicated to explain so henceforth...neice) in the park and she was adorable!! She even let me hold her, despite her going through a super clingy period right now, so that was lovely.
Also, last night for Halloween I watched Hellboy, which I haven't seen in ages and it was fun! I forgot how much fun it was.
And then I read The Tutor by Bonnie Dee...

...which is fucking fantastic! An m/m gothic romance, in which a guy fakes his way into becoming a tutor for twin boys living in a drafty mansion, with their grief-stricken, and coincidentally, handsome father. I really enjoyed it. The writing is fantastic, and the story is brilliant. Dont be fooled by the "Sound of Music/Secret Garden" comparison in the description. It's a ghost story – more Woman in Black than Jane Eyre if you ask me. I genuinely got the shivers at a couple of points...and not just coz of the sexytimes either! : ) But anyway. Not a waste of pennies. I shall definitely be reading it again : )
So, that was nice too : )
Let's hope the rest of the week keeps being nice. I could use it! Love your faces xxx

So sorry, my bb's, I know I have a ton of messages to respond to but the meds are making me sleep my life away at the moment. I've been asleep most of today and I can hardly stay awake so I'm off to bed. Don't forget I love your faces. I hope the Majestic Flipflaps go some way to making up for me being Rip Van Winkle. Mwah! xxzzz
...but today is Tuesday too!!!!
Oct. 8th, 2014 03:23 pmI HAVE THE INTERNETS!!!!!

Things I have learnt whilst not having the internets
I cannot look up the number of the service that can come fix my router...because my router is broken.
I don't know what circle of hell that is but oh my god, my brain nearly shortcircuited.
My 3G phone does not get 3G in the house...
I cannot watch TV...
or listen to music...
or use my printer (fuck knows where that cable is)...
I cannot check the weather to see if it's safe to walk the dog without getting drenched...
I cannot fact check anything if I want to write some fic...
I cannot source photos to do artwork...
My DVD collection seems to consisted almost entirely of Japanese horror, Gerald Bulter and RDJ...
It was basically me and the (wet) dog sitting in a room for 3 days, feeling like the rest of the universe had evaporated.
I didn't like it.
I also learnt that when the new router arrives, the sticker that says "Takes 20 minutes to set up the best communication" really doesn't take into account how motivated a fangirl can be if she knows there's a season opener waiting out there in the ether : )
90 seconds, bitches!
I know it was only a few days but I MISSED YOU GUYS!!! ♥ ♥ ♥

I watched the ep in a rush coz OMG I needed it but....
I'm gonna watch it again later when there's no screenglare and my brain is actually working, I'm sure there's more intelligent stuff to be said. I'm also sticking to the rule from last season and not reading any reaction posts. It only takes one comment for me to lose my mind so in the spirit of happiness, best not : )
*sighs*
It's so nice to be home : ) xx
I give in...
Sep. 16th, 2014 02:37 pmAny podficcers hosted by paraka? I finally got the ftp thingy to work but I'll be fucking damned if it won't let me access the files in a URL. It says I need to put something into the advanced options...but I have no idea what.
WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING!!!
I've been trying to make this work for 6 months and it's driving me nuts!!
Any advice gratefully recieved xx

Holy Crap...I saw a still of this on Twitter yesterday and thought it was hilarious...I had no idea there was a vid!
My chest hurts from laughing...normally I'm very anti prank but Jesus Fuck this is so funny!!
If you are very phobic of spiders you might not want to watch...there are no spiders in this! Only Weiner dogs in wonderful costumes.
So cruel...but so so funny!! I think I would genuinely shit my pants if this happened to me : ) x

I. Am. Done.
Aug. 15th, 2014 12:13 pmIf this is true, and given that Robbie Thompson is writing it I can imagine it is, then the show runners can just go fuck themselves.
Can't think of anything worse right now.
( Spoilers for 10.5... )
It might be fine. It might be hilarious. Not holding my fucking breath though. Praying its a hoax.
Not happy x

Okay...I think I've sufficiently recovered enough from 9.23 that I can start thinking about looking at things SPN again without bursting into tears and I want to start my watch through (Hellatus I usually start from the beginning...I know, I know but it wasn't such an mission in the days waiting for S4...now *gulps* I can do it, I can) BUT as always my brain is making life way more complicated than it needs to be.
Because I need screencaps for art refs, and because I need research for my MiniBang, and because I need shots for a vid, and because I want to write a meta thing about John, I figure this time I need to make some notes and stuff as I watch...except I'm not quite sure how to organise that or how to even begin to start to organise that. So I'm just not doing it. And I need to. Time is short and stuff like I need to watch the whole of S1 before I can start on my MiniBang makes it kinda urgent.
So if you have any organizational tips or just wanna give me a good 'ole kick in ass, I know you love that kinda thing ; )
And how do you keep track of your images or vid clips? Or are there any cool online resources for this sort of stuff that you've come across that help? I'm always amazed how some of you can just pull an image out of the air when it would take me twenty minutes just to find the right folder on my desktop.
Anyway...that's it really. Imma go vacuum now : ) x

Right.
I have just lost two days to LJ.
My RSI hurts
After valiantly clipping my unanswered messages in my inbox back to less than 200 I am now back up to 496 (fml)
So tomorrow I will post for
spn_hallelujah, I will read any and all
rlbivob posts...and that's it.
I will try and answer any outstanding emails but otherwise, please try to be uninteresting and/or unamusing so I can get some RL stuff done! You guys quite frankly suck at being dull and unfriendly.
Other than that...
I made this manip. I'm not very good at it but I'm really happy with this one so I'm posting it and you can't stop me...ETA yes, I changed it just to confuse you : )

And if you're not a member of
rlbivob yet, why the fuck not? We have porn and pretty everyday and one of the best stories around as well as squee and lovely icon makers and playlist compilers...it's really nice...especially if you like panties and handcuffs and stabvests ( I am partial to a stab vest) and mouthy bb!Jared and brooding scary!Jensen...who smokes.
Also I'm so excited about the artist that claimed my BB, I can't even. Brace yourselves for shitloads of squee when reveals happen!! : )
Off to bed.
Love your faces ♥ x

Never sleeping again
May. 10th, 2014 10:15 amThis is all the things I have on my fannish to do list. If I have promised you anything and it's not on the list, let me know and I'll add it. I'm going to put this on my sticky post too, I think

Two quick things
May. 2nd, 2014 02:39 pmOkay, three.
Sad first.
( There was a dog abandoned in the park this morning. )
Enough of that.
This!
I do not ship this but I know some of you do and this made me laugh so hard I just have to post it.

And also this!

Just giving you fair warning, this is me. From this point out I will in all likelihood become increasingly incoherent until the finale at which point I will be inconsolable for about a fortnight. Just so you know.
Hope everyone's weekend is awesomely epic except for last minute BBers. I hope your weekends are tranquil and that a full body massage awaits everyone of you. You deserve it! : ) x
