Feb. 6th, 2013 10:52 amI've used this icon so many times recently, and every time wonder how much Joe enjoyed walking around nearly naked.
I love the new song. I love all the new pictures and video. I love that my flist is full of ICH posts.
FOB \o/ 1
I joined up for Get Mikey Laid and picked Frank/Mikey where Frank is a ghost. I've also dusted off my Pete/Mikey BBB file, though haven't actually added any words yet. But it'll happen soon I'm sure.
James is still off work and probably will be for a few weeks yet. Apart from his back issues his hand has started clawing up again, which was always a possibility, but his surgeon said last time there's not anything else they can really do. It's hit him really hard and for the first time since I've known him he's started saying he wishes he could take a tablet and make everything go away. Which yeah, I wish I could give him a hand that works, but sadly, they're both wishes that aren't going to happen.
It's Corey's 17th birthday in a few days and just, jfc, where has my kid gone?
Still on a YA dystopian reading kick and have been reading The Birthmarked series by Caragh M O'Brien and enjoying it so far. I should finish book two tonight and am looking forward to getting stuck into it again.
I should go kick James out of bed and then put away all the clothes I ironed yesterday. The excitement, man, it never ends.

Poor James. I wish things could be easier and better for him too.
Corey!! Crazy talk! *g*

Date: 2013-02-06 11:16 am (UTC)I'm looking forward to the new album so much.
Yeah. He's not having an easy time of it at all right now.
Corey can apply for his driving licence next week. That astounds me, and makes me feel ancient *g*

Sucks about James's back and hand. :((( <333

Date: 2013-02-08 02:16 pm (UTC)I need to figure out a plot for ghost Frank. I just know I want it to be a happy story. Which suggests he not be a ghost at the end.

My son will be 16 this month himself. It's crazy, right? I hope James feels better. I don't know the details, but my husband had a lot of back trouble that lead to him leaving his contracting job, and in the end having surgery. I know how hard that can be.

Date: 2013-02-08 02:14 pm (UTC)I need to work out the actual plot for Frank as a ghost. I saw the prompt and knew I needed it, now to find the words to support that.
It is crazy, and cuts into me thinking I'm still a young thing when I have a son so old *g*
It is hard. I'm sorry you know that too ♥

Date: 2013-02-08 01:53 pm (UTC)I will do.
And man, I know. It's insane!

Date: 2013-02-06 06:32 pm (UTC)Your fics sound lots of fun too! And I thought ICH had disbanded? shows how out of the loop I am!

Date: 2013-02-07 02:49 pm (UTC)ICH did disband. Guess they had to come back when FOB did.

Date: 2013-02-06 06:40 pm (UTC)Good luck with your writing.
That's so sad to hear about James. *sends him all the hugs*
Seventeen?!! You're joking, right? I refuse to believe he's that old!
no subject
Date: 2013-02-07 02:48 pm (UTC)Thank you, though I still haven't moved past opening the file.
It is. I think he would feel better going back to work, but can't at the moment. It's such a catch 22.
I know /o\

Date: 2013-02-07 02:04 am (UTC)And I'm excited for your fic. SO EXCITE. And you'll get back in the grove. *waves pom poms*

Date: 2013-02-07 12:29 pm (UTC)Hugs to James. That does not sound pleasant.
I was quite alarmed the first time I realised I'd started commenting on how much other people had grown. And they never seem to stop. What is up with that?
no subject
Date: 2013-02-07 02:33 pm (UTC)It isn't at all. Thankfully it's his weaker hand, so that's something to hold onto.
They don't stop. It's all very perplexing.

That kind of pill would be amazing.

That sounds very hard for James. I'm sorry he has to go through that (and you too).
Happy birthday to Corey, however!
Also: best footnote ever.

YA dystopias were all the rage after the hunger Games thing. It's not the genre I read in YAs, but I'm glad that you've gotten a lot of different books to choose from. :)
