There have been three days close to my heart. 1. My Birthday. Might not be an official holiday but I consider it a day to reflect in nostalgia on my life and see that I have not been forgotten. I expect to feel special and loved and will find it if I have to. 2. Halloween. It's really the only holiday where you are allowed to be a little weird, dress up, and revel in fantasy and what can be or show aspects of yourself safely without too much judgment. Fun times. 3. Christmas Eve All of the spectacle and build up and fantasy of Christmas...all of the hopes and dreams are alive and well for tomorrow. Disappointment and Family stress and no magical adventure might all become reality tomorrow...but tonight it feels content, tastes like hot chocolate, and is full of endless good possibilities. | | |

Hm. We got invited to attend a fundraiser party tonight. I'm kinda interested in going, but I just reeeaaally don't feel like going out tonight (this would involve driving to Baltimore, about an hour each way....) Our weekends have been booked solid since we moved, I haven't had a single quiet saturday here yet...
Trying to make up our minds we checked out the website for the bar it's being held at.
They had a big photo gallery titled "wet lube wrestling."
lol.
Hmmmmmmmmmm.
*Still deciding* | | |

So I realize I not only need to explain about the breakup but also talk about Thanksgiving and black Friday.
Sorry you will be forced to wait a little longer.
My thoughts on the break up changes day to day still so I think I will wait a little longer before going into that.
Thanksgiving and Black Friday report may come sooner.
I just want to say thanks to the awesome friends who supported me and cheered me.
A HUGE thanks to Tom and Sheila who are coming with me Wed to unmove all the stuff I had brought to Mikes.
Today and tomorrow I am going to finish some fanfiction (I need to finish my minichallenges before dec!!).
Then I need to hustle on the AMV challenges due at christmas with Sheila and Kate. (Bonus we are in the midst of planning a christmas party and I am excited about it).
I also need to finish applying for RI massage license and pick up exercising again.
Work today was exhausting. Tons of people buying chocolate for christmas already.
It is super windy and cold outside and pitch black at 5pm...totally feel like winter now. | | |

Going to try to see a dentist next week and at least get a feel of how much money I need to spend on one particular tooth.
Sheep forwarded me an email that has pictures etc on it, and on the top it has the regular "if you can't read this correctly please press here (如果您不能正確閱讀,請按此)". Which, when you really think about the wording, is quite funny really. And it just sounds even funnier in Chinese. "如果您不能正確閱讀", lol.
Weekend sooooooon. I bought gold socks for Sunday. XD | | |

It's high time for a wishlist, so... ( tl;dr )IN SHORT: 1. Make a wishlist of any 10 things you want and post it. 2. If you see someone else with this meme and want to get them something then go for it. *** - Icons! Of my obsessions, of random quotes, of random fun things.
- Fanfic/fanart! Because it owns my life ♥;
- Postcards! Or letters! That's always awesome~
- Books! Even though I already have too many... Here's my 'wanted' list. I don't mind if they're used or something.
- Merlin stuff! Especially this. But also anything vaguely connected to Merlin, really. Like, dragons! Or knights!
- Calendar for 2010! Preferably somewhat dorm-safe. But we have
half-naked guys from Cosmo on our wall, so it's not that much of a restriction.
- Socks! No matter how many I have, it's never enough. Size 38.
- Kindle DX! Or regular Kindle. I'll probably never buy it myself... *sniff*
- New laptop! Not getting that anytime soon, probably.
- Driving license! *SHOT* I'll get it someday...
*** Contact info. Ramen. | | |

Broke my personal record and had a fever for three days running starting Thursday, and had to cancel plans with ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) 77ws. On Sunday I was feeling stir-crazy and an old high school friend, who just got her license, offered to drive over and treat me to something. Glad for an excuse to get out of the house, I agreed. WE ENDED UP WATCHING NEW MOON W-WHY IS MY LIFE LIKE THIS however, it was strangely enjoyable although i could've lived without seeing rpattz half-nakedPicked up my security deposit refund + separation pay on Tuesday; the teller at the bank said the checks would clear the next day but when I checked again today they hadn't! Possibly my depositing money into my account was such an unprecedented event that they had to put them on hold?! orz Tore through Georgette Heyer's body of work, and my first tier favorites are: The Foundling, Cotillion, Frederica, Venetia, The Talisman Ring, The Grand Sophy, and Black Sheep. In particular The Grand Sophy, Talisman Ring and Cotillion have headstrong female protagonists, and I could love TGS alone for this exchange: "Since you have brought up Miss Wraxton’s name, I shall be much obliged to you, Cousin, if you will refrain from telling my sisters that she has a face like a horse!"
"But, Charles, no blame attaches to Miss Wraxton! She cannot help it, and that, I assure you, I have always pointed out to your sisters!"
"I consider Miss Wraxton’s countenance particularly well bred!"
"Yes, indeed, but you have quite misunderstood the matter! I meant a particularly well-bred horse!"
"You meant, as I am perfectly aware, to belittle Miss Wraxton!"
"No, no! I am very fond of horses!" Sophy said earnestly.
Before he could stop himself he found that he was replying to this. "Selina, who repeated the remark to me, is not fond of horses, however, and she—" He broke off, seeing how absurd it was to argue on such a head.
"I expect she will be, when she has lived in the same house with Miss Wraxton for a month or two," said Sophy encouragingly.
Mr. Rivenhall, restraining an impulse to box his cousin’s ears, flung out of the room, slamming the door behind him. --and my second tier favorites: April Lady, Friday's Child, These Old Shades, and Devil's Cub. They would've been first, except they either had protagonists who were murderers/ would be rapists (the latter two) or squicky power imbalances (the two former). I've learned to roll with it since I read horrific shoujo manga after all, but I was hoping for better even if they are romance novels. TwT) Possibly more in-depth reviews + ebook dls later. | | |

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone below the border! ( Waters of Mars spoilers )This probably shows me to be incredibly petty, but guys, a fake cut isn’t just a link. A fake cut should look like a cut. ( This is a fake cut. ) This is not.I hate it when people say a link is a fake cut. Also, it’s not hard. Get over it. ( Links )I took Krys out for dinner at One of a Kind (my favourite restaurant) on Monday. Before hand, I got this text: Krys: Going to wear a dress. Why not?? MK: Why not indeed. But damnit, Krys, now I have to dress up and they’re going to think we’re lesbians. The guy who owns this restaurant is a big fan of my dad. On the one hand, awesome-- we get great service. On the other, now he will think I am the lesbian daughter. ( Fic Recs: Merlin )In Krys’ neighbourhood there is a lingerie store that blasts Elvis Gospel music outside. Just saying. | | |

To the Americans on my flist: I wish you a very happy turkey day, or, if you are in the unfortunate position of having to deal with annoying relatives, then I hope you have an amiable turkey day, at the very least. May you all feel comfortably fat. :D | | |

For a bit of light relief between big projects, I thought I'd have a crack at one of the unfulfilled prompts off the kink meme - specifically one asking for Deadpool using his fourth-wall-breaking powers to 'fix' what the comics have done with him and Cable since their joint series ended. This would have been lighter relief if it hadn't required me to actually read a couple of recent Cable chapters for material. While I must admit this did give me a certain amount of fun making stupid macros and horrifying friends*, I really miss the days when Cable's series was intentionally hilarious, rather than just unintentionally so. * "Oh hey, now Cable's being eaten by a giant space whale! Now Bishop's being tentacle raped by aliens! Did I mention the same aliens can track Hope across a galaxy but don't know she exists when she's a couple of dozen metres away? IN SOVIET MARVEL, SHARK JUMPS YOU!"
Title: &^@* this $#!%Summary: Deadpool takes it on himself to 'fix' the current Marvel status quo. With extreme prejudice. Characters/Pairing: Cable/Deadpool, Hope Rating: PG Word Count: 2120 ( No children, puppies or Marvel employees harmed in the writing of this crack, though certain fictional barriers may not be quite the same for a while... ) | | |

- We're redundant-ing quite a few people. I'm not one of them. Our office is relying on study-which-must-not-be-named and various other not-so-solid things to stay profitable.
- Westminster City Council are full of $@#!
- Work is full of idle idle idle MUST GET THESE DONE TODAY.
- Life appears to only ever allow me to have one close friend to talk to at a time.
- A passenger on my train to work yesterday as taken off the train by police because the driver (how? By CCTV?) recognised him to be the person who assaulted him on a late night train from LST four weeks ago.
- Three words: FIGURE SKATING AU.
- I should stop listening to Koi on repeat. | | |

Is now single and facing the prospect of unmoving all of her stuff from Mikes.
Obviously a post will follow when full comprehension has come. | | |

HELP! The MovieA Hard Day's Night was a fun, experimental, sometimes eccentric documentary-style movie about an ordinary day for The Beatles. The Beatles are funny, witty, and it seems like every line they utter is entirely ad-libbed (it was John who ad-libbed the most, but they pretty much stuck to the script). It is considered a collection of the first music videos. (Flight of the Conchords lovingly follows this sort of music video within a narrative experiment). Non-Beatles fans can enjoy their wacky adventures, and Beatles fans would enjoy the music and the fanservice. ( Help! is a continuation of that, and it is pure, unashamed crack. And features tons of weird, if random fanservice. Some of the memorable scenes include: )Also, because I want to ask you important questions: ❏ Leave me a comment saying "WAR IS OVER: If you want it!" ❏ I'll respond by asking you four-five questions so I can get to know you better. ❏ Update your journal with the answers to the questions. ❏ Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions. ( Some Questions from Mikko )Due to the spirit of the holidays, I am bringing back the Christmas Art Gift Project! So request away: it could be any couple, any person, your mom, any thing, as long as I know who the characters are. I will draw them for you, seriously. :) All the artgifts will be posted on Christmas day. Current artgift requests: * Jale/Sieg/Roberto (Suikoden Tierkreis) - ranalinde. I'm not exactly sure if she wants me to draw one of the three, or all three of them having mad, three-way sex. Those slash marks are tricky little buggers. * Michael Jackson - dia_aren_marie* Colin/Dave (I'm In Love With A Geek Boy) - numi_nami WITH SPECIAL COLIN-TOPPING ACTION. Clearly the best request EVER. ♥ * Solid Snake/Gray Fox (Metal Gear Solid) - athenemiranda* Two Sexy, Oldschool, Lesbian Pirates - evercool* Fujima/Hanagata (Slam Dunk) - fu_fuI am surprised and pleased at the variation of requests I got! | | |

I tried to finish it for a long time, and now everyone's doing it, so! You know how sometimes people on your friend's list post about stuff going on in their life, and all of a sudden you think "Wait a minute? Since when are they working THERE? Since when are they dating HIM/HER? since when???" And then you wonder how you could have missed all that seemingly pretty standard information, but somehow you feel too ashamed to ask for clarification because it seems like info you *should* already know? It happens to all of us sometimes.
Please copy mine below, erase my answers putting yours in their place then post it in your journal! Please elaborate on the questions that would benefit from elaboration! One-word answers seldom help anyone out.( mememememememe )Ramen. | | |
