guess who's back?
Just a very brief note to say that while I've been totally absent for ages, I am still reading my f-list and keeping track of all you lovely people in a completely non-creepy stalker kind of way. :p I've been on the road for two months now, travelling around Europe, so I haven't had much LJ time. A belated Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all! -
please don't touch, it makes me jittery
♠ Holidays! Finally. Actually, I'm still have quite a few irons on the fire, but at least univeristy work is out of my life for another three weeks or so. I was going to post fic every day for all of July (personal challenge), but...it's the 3rd and I got sidetracked. :p However, I'm hoping that from today onwards I'll keep to my resolution...

i do not have a gentle heart
♠ Well, I know I've been terribly absent. RL has been kicking my ass, and I've actually been trying to be productive. However, I'm come down with some heinous cold so instead of going to uni I'm curled up watching Hawaii Five-0.
♠ Also, much as I have been out of fandom of late, I have a new obsession. A Game of Thrones. And, more specifically, ( Read more... ) -
you make me want to la la
♥ Just an observation...I'm watching episode 4 of A Game of Thrones and I want to do bad, bad, bad things to Jon Snow. Bad things.
Also, I enjoy the fact that Samwell just assumes that because he's never been with a woman he's a virgin...IT'S BECAUSE HE WAS BANGING ROBB STARRK LIKE THE PORCH DOOR IN A HURRICANE.

i haven't thought of you lately at all
♠ I'd love to say it has been an uber-productive week of writing joy, but that would sadly be a lie. I had a happy, optimistic vision involving me propped up in bed with my laptop, drugged but cheerful, drinking soup and merrily tapping away on my laptop. In reality, the various medications I was on made me alternately drowsy and extremely nauseous ( Read more... ) -
Update
Hey lovelies, in case anyone was wondering I got out of surgery about 18 hours ago and should be heading home this morning (I had to stay overnight so they could wake me hourly to check I was still breathing/my heart was still beating/my blood pressure was ok). Touchwood, everything is ok. I'm in a fair bit of pain (probably unsurprisingly), but I ( Read more... ) -
you don't know did you cross the line, or did the line cross you?
♠ I'm still here! :p It's been a bit of a crazy couple of weeks - back at uni, back at work, plus I've been going out a lot (unusual, I know). As a consequence I am cheerful but exhausted. :p And I have less money than I would like to have. Still, totally worth it. I also have all these text messages I need to send to people reminding them of ( Read more... ) -
a knife inside my back jean pocket
♠ Well, I just read Out Of The Ashes, which is the sequel to one of my favourite comfort reads, A Strong And Sudden Thaw. They're both by R.W. Day and they feature the rare creature that is canon boylove. It arrived in the post a couple of days ago, and having finished it this morning I feel the need to have a ramble about it. I read a couple of ( Read more... ) -
shut up and drive
Partying: I do it wrong.
Why? Why do I do it wrong? Because instead of being like 'OMG YAY FRIDAY NIGHT YAAAAAY' I have concocted a Friday night plan which allows me to dutifully attend two social events and then get back home in time to read the book that just arrived in the mail.
Patrying: I do it wrong.
BUT
Nerding: I am queen.
