Random stuff

Thanks for the help with drugs yesterday, guys. I knew you'd know...

Mind you, I feel like I took one of the recommended pills this morning. A combination of late-night upset stomach and early morning allergy attack has left me feeling like someone replaced my brain with cotton wool overnight. Anything to wake me up/make me giggle would be much appreciated.

I'm also attempting to write 32k over the next week or so. As I said to Z and Becky, don't bet against me yet, and don't be fooled by the fact that I've had to restart this story about nine times. That's not too bad for me, and now I've worked out that I need to stop worrying about what *happens* next and just worry about what the characters *do* next, it's going a lot smoother. Although any inspirational thoughts you care to send in my direction would not go amiss...

How is everyone? I had a nice discussion yesterday about the Who finale with someone I didn't know and completely disagreed with, and it was fun, and good-natured and interesting. It's nice to stretch some brain cells properly. Anything nice happen to anyone else lately? Come on, don't be shy. I'm going to be slogging for at least the next seven days, so I need my vicarious happies!

This made me go aww this morning:

see more dog (http://ihasahotdog.com) pictures

I'm not worried - the fic's going well, and I'm certain it's going to be brilliant. Just let John keep talking ;)

Good debates are good :) I love it when people can disagree like grown-ups.

Nice, um. Apart from my warm and fuzzy feelings towards the Due South fandom, and the fact it's sunny so far today... ooh, I has an interview tomorrow, which may or may not be good. The job sounds a bit (okay, a lot) dull, but it's only until October, so it might be alright...

Aww!

Bless! Yeah, that works. *G*

I'm about to let Ronon hit John with a big stick, which is always fun :)

Interview! Excellent! And boredom's definitely easier to bear if you know it's got a limited timespan on it...

Thanks :D

Heee!! You have any idea how this sounds like to anyone who hasn't read the previous entry? *giggles*

I has new umbrellas!! Small, tiny umbrellas!! So I no longer have to carry around the big heavy thing in my bag! \o/

[jadesfire2808.livejournal.com]

Yup, I know exactly how it sounds... *beams*

Ooh, I love pretty umbrellas! I'm not allowed them because I lose them, but I love them anyway :D

For once I'm at a loss for anything cheerful. Sorry...

Oh Noes!

This made me smile. It also reminded me of my own approach to cooking. Are there chillis in the recipe? No? Why not? They got it wrong! *adds chillis*" :)

need moar coffee. hanging around at uni with nothing to do is HARD. Can't even read fic because there are people here with me :/

[jadesfire2808.livejournal.com]

*nods* Boredom makes me pretty much doze off on my keyboard. *snores*

*passes the coffee*

I cannot speak of the monster writing run, because, er, I've almost broken 60K, and there's a teensy chance I could see 70 in mine before the week is through (if I could just stop falling asleep at night, that'd be awesome.)

Let's see... vicarious happies? Um... I have coffee this morning! :D Well... it makes me happy>.


And this reminds me of Ianto's girlfriend:

[jadesfire2808.livejournal.com]

70k? All by yourself? I mean, I know Naye and Friendshipper hit that, but seriously? *mind boggles* You go, girl! I'm just about to break 10k and am very excited about it :)

heh. I've just finished my fourth coffee. No discernable effects so far, but you have to repeat experiments to be sure of the results...

*snorts coffee*

Oh that is wrong...

*falls off chair laughing*

I thought you'd already passed the 20k mark? Are you rewriting?

On the funny side: I finally got a letter from my son who is at sleepaway camp. 2 lines- How's the cat, and are we taping Doctor Who for him. He has his priorities.

[jadesfire2808.livejournal.com]

I'm rerererewriting, I think. It got past the 20k mark and just...died. I'm so much happier with what I'm writing now. 11,500 words and hardly anything has happened and I have no plans for what's going to happen. That's my kind of story :) See heretoutopia for details, although I should be sending you something by the end of the day.

*snort* Yeah, that sounds about right. Glad you've got him well trained ;D

*hugs* You can do it, I've SEEN you write that much, that fast.
