Placeholder for my Dear Yuletide letter :D

I made a New Year's resolution to be on LJ every day. /o ( Read more... )

Reader, I'm a dumbass. I forgot that my history class today was an optional exam for people who want a chance to bump up their grades, and since my grade is not-bump-upable, I didn't have to go. Normally this is not a big thing, but it means that I could have stayed home this morning and hung out with our delightful surprise guest bayleaf and eaten ( Read more... )

Martha is making soup in the kitchen and there were onions involved, and my eyes decided to FLIP OUT, so I am curled up in the living room, on the apple green couch, a gray and white blanket with a wolf on it over my head like a blanket fort. The wolf is looking at my keyboard as I type. If wolves (on blankets or off) could talk, this one would ( Read more... )

Yuletide author! I am very sorry to have given you so little direction in my signups--I'd had an absolutely hectic couple weeks and was signing up at the very last second. I'd hoped to have time to flesh my requests out a little before assignments went out. :( I hope that you were excited enough about whatever we matched on that a lack of ( Read more... )

I love that no one in the media, or any fandom platform, spells NSYNC a) the same way b) one way consistently. We're all just throwing out letters and punctuation at random, it feels like, and I choose to believe this is because we're all so goddamn excited about a possible reunionIf this is just internet-rumor mill, I am going to burn my laptop ( Read more... )

Hey gang--any recommendations for a fantasy-type novel, slashy a plus but not required, more heavy on culture/politics/mythology? Like, if i hadn't read all the N.K. Jemisin, that would be a great rec. Available on kindle preferred. I have a flight tomorrow and I have books but they are not hitting that spot right now ( Read more... )

I don't know what happened but I appear to have had a Star Trek-related breakdown of some sort? Like, I went to STID, I enjoyed it but not as much as I could have, it's a good thing the cast is charismatic as all get-out to make up for JJ Abrams. I went home thinking about how much I love Kirk and Spock, although I never think of myself as being ( Read more... )

One thing I will say for the LJ slowdown: I managed to improve my ratio of posts read to comments left. Like, I always read everyone's posts, I don't filter my friendslist, but I guess I was always trying so hard to stay caught up that I was bad at letting people know I was paying attention? And I'm still not stellar about that, because things have ( Read more... )

Guys, I super intensely want a Very Harlequin Romance with two ladies. Like, the cranky firefighter and the lady who is trying to live in her old family home and run the old family antique business after her great-aunt dies and leaves it to her, and it's nothing but code violations and musty old fabric and the firefighter-lady would just like to ( Read more... )
