turpsI was talking to mam last night and she was saying how she's angry at Terry for dying. Which yeah, I understand, but as we talked further she admitted that she'd taken a load of loans out for him in her name. I was like, you idiot, because you just don't do things like that. She's got almost £100 per week in loans which he was paying, but obviously now he's dead she has to pay because she signed for them. She's been down here all morning and we've tried to sort her finances out, but man, she's in trouble just now. I feel bad because we're digging our way out of our money problems. The bank came through for us so we've paid off a load of debts, we were going to have a holiday with what was left over but I've given it to mam to pay at least some of her debts. She's not sleeping and I feel so sorry for her at the moment. Because as much as we have problems in our relationship she's still my mam and I love her to bits.
James is going to the funeral of his family friend this afternoon and I've cried off. I should go but I don't want to, which yeah is selfish but she was someone I only talked to very occasionally. I'm going to stay home and write and drink coffee and if that's selfish so be it.
Also, I'm turning into a freaking lizard. And this is gross I'm warning you. Remember the infection from hell I've been trying to shake off, and how my leg came out in blisters? Well those blisters have now scaled over, I have a patch of nasty dry scaly skin all down the outside of my thigh. Which wouldn't be bad but I'm a picker and I keep wanting to pick at the dry bits. Only 3 more doses of the antibiotics btw, I'm going to celebrate with a vodka, just because I can.
I'm writing like crazy at the moment, which is so cool. I love when I hit these patches when the words won't stop flowing. I'm alternating between the popslash AU and my The Sentinel story and dug out my MX femmeslash this morning, because I'm getting poked to write it *g* I'm having
And I end with a meme, which I've seen on loads of LJ's the last one being

3. Does my journal expand your knowledge of me?
I haven't met a journal yet that didn't expand my knowledge of it's owner.
4. Do you think my bio describes me well? If there were no names given would you be able to guess who it was describing?

2. Is my journal's title cryptic or descriptive? What do you think it means? (Not my username, but my journal's title.)
**pokes you** not a flake lol But yeah, it's pretty descriptive, and it's pretty much me too lol
3. Does my journal expand your knowledge of me?
Indeed it does. Very much so, of which I'm glad :o)
4. Do you think my bio describes me well? If there were no names given would you be able to guess who it was describing?
lol yes I would be able to guess it was you. The pics of Kevin, Chris and Victor help lol
5. Which of my interests surprises you the least?
lol there's a whole bunch *g* but mostly the ones to do with Sentinel, MX, popslash and kink lol
6. Which of my interests surprises you the most?
Nothing really surprises me, I'm just left a little 'huh' by like, Savage Garden and Gambit and fastlane and X-Files and the ones like that, makes me realise we spend far too much time talking about pretty pop boys and not enough time talking about those other important facets of life. As in, other slash fandoms lol
7. Which of my interests needs explaining?
None really. Except maybe Gambit. X-Men Gambit? Just Gambit? lol
8. How many of my friends' journals do you read on a regular basis?
People friends, about 13, we share some comms
9. How many of my friends are strangers to you?
Mmm, quite a few. But such is the pitfalls of multi fandom friendslists lol
10. Which of my userpics suits me best?
Bad hair & braces Chris, 'cause it's the one I associate with you the most lol but you penguin ones remind me of you too lol and moody Chris and Chip Skylark and oh. All of them lol
no subject
Date: 2004-03-01 10:51 am (UTC)lol yes I would be able to guess it was you. The pics of Kevin, Chris and Victor help lol
Everyone has said they'll know it's me. Maybe I should start to be more mysterious ;)
There's other slash fandoms? *g* No I love X-Files, I watched it from the start, same with Fastlane, I was spitting blood there was only 1 season. Van, he's so pretty. And I love Savage Garden, including the slash side of it. Darren and Daniel are MFEO.
It is X-Men Gambit, he's gorgeous, and now I wonder why I don't have X-Men on there because it's one of the fandoms I dip into at times.
The multi fandom friendslist makes me lol. I did this at one friends LJ and the only other journal I read on hers was Mouse's. I love my flist, pop, TS, MX and assorted friends all jumbled together.
Glad to know my icons make an impression ;)
no subject
Date: 2004-03-01 11:23 am (UTC)lol I have heard tell of there being other slash fandoms, but I'm not sure if I believe it lol
Oh Daz & Dan were so MFEO lol pretty. And yes, I weeped and wailed that there was only one season lol And yes, X-Files. Mmmmm Mulder/Krycek. Love ratboy lol No man should have eyelashes that long and pretty *h*
Mmm Gambit. Remy/Bobby is like, my big gay X-Men OTP lol Pretty.
lol flists are odd, yo. I've got mostly popslashers, but there's a few people who I'vemet at multi-slash cons/get togethers who are decidedly NOT popslashers lol I wouldn't be surprised if they had me filtered off half the time, bless 'em *g*
no subject
Date: 2004-03-01 01:57 pm (UTC)Remy/Bobby or Logan/Remy is what I go for. The thought of Remy being in XM3 makes me very happy indeed. Of course I doubt there'll be much of the old butt!sex between him and other X Men but I can hope.
I've got the feeling I'm filtered a lot. Or else the none pop slashers look at my posts, shudder and scroll on by *g*
no subject
Date: 2004-03-01 02:21 pm (UTC)Mmmm, Remy being in X3 fills me with glee lol I am a little unsure if he will tho, I mean, they've got a young Rogue (which, to be fair is more in keeping with how old she actually is supposed to be, so, um, the only thing they kept then?) having it away with Bobby, or as much as she can lol (did I mention how much it fills me with glee that it looks alot like maybe Bobby's gonna be gay? Canonically in the comics) so what would Remy do? Not Rogue thas fer sure. Or Bobby either lol Filmwise, give me Scott/Logan any day lol I didn't used to like Scott, but he's been growing on me. in the comics, on X-men Evo, and the films, tho he don't get to do much lol
lol I have no doubt half the popslashers on my flist shudder and scroll past my posts lol

Date: 2004-03-01 08:19 pm (UTC)2. Is my journal's title cryptic or descriptive? What do you think it means? (Not my username, but my journal's title.) It's descriptive. I wouldn't neccessarily agree with it, but still *G*
3. Does my journal expand your knowledge of me? Definately. The RL snippets that you often put behind cuts more than the fandom stuffs.
4. Do you think my bio describes me well? If there were no names given would you be able to guess who it was describing? I haven't read it for ages, but yeah. It's a great description. I'd definately know who it was talking about.
5. Which of my interests surprises you the least? All of the ones to do with slash and sparkly-types
6. Which of my interests surprises you the most? Possibly Savage Garden and Darren Hayes, just because I tend to think of them as only being known over here, which I logically know is wrong *G*
7. Which of my interests needs explaining? I have no idea what you mean by 'master'
8. How many of my friends' journals do you read on a regular basis? :counts: sixteen
9. How many of my friends are strangers to you? I know a lot of them by name, but have never spoken to them.
10. Which of my userpics suits me best? The one you have labled as 'moody chris' always makes me think of you, as does the 'this is sex' one

Date: 2004-03-02 04:23 am (UTC)(2) Aw, thanks hon.
(3)I'm surprised anyone actually reads them, but yeah, they would make people know me, considering I totally over share at times *g*
(4)You're another one who'd know me from my bio. What there's no more mutant loving, sentinel fans, rps addicted freaks around? ;)
(5) *g*
(6) Oh, I loved SG and love Darren. Prefer SG to his solo stuff but I'm still a fan.
(7) That's part of my master/slave kink. It would probably make more sense if I had slave on there *g*
(10) I love both of those icons!
Thanks for playing :)
