turps: (Most gorgeous pic ever! (digital_diva))
[personal profile] turps
It's been a busy weekend. Saturday we went clothes shopping for something to wear to my dad's partner's 60th birthday party which will also do for the moderately tidy dinner at Connotations. Talking of which, I have to be annoying and say, 10 SLEEPS!

Sunday it was dad's birthday, not that we celebrated as such. We just went to see him at nanna's and took a card then sat around talking for a while. To be honest I've spent most of my time reading. I've missed having a hand held so much, so to have Talliswood and Mysterious Ways and Book of Secrets etc at my finger tips is wonderful. Curled up in a blanket on the couch, or lying in bed in the darkness, fully in the world of the story you're reading. Even sitting on the church wall, waiting for Corey. I love my hand held so much. Especially today when I had a doctor's appointment at 2:30 which left me almost an hour to kill before picking up Corey. As there wasn't really time to go home I ended walking in the park then sitting under a tree reading Mysterious Ways, which was just perfect until a bunch of teens came to find conkers, which meant throwing sticks at the tree right next to where I was sitting. Not wanting to be taken out by a stick I moved to my usual spot in the church yard, under the bush on the wall and finished my story there in peace.

Which was good as I needed all the peace I could get, as coming home Corey made my world spin a little when he casually asked 'what's porn?' The thoughts flew through my mind, had he managed to uncover some of my hidden files on the computer, read something he shouldn't have? What?! So I made do with the old stand by 'why do you want to know?' To which he replied 'you know, porn. Like those white cracker things you get from the chinese takeaway' At which point my heart started to beat again when I realised he meant prawn crackers. *g*

Unrelated, Lia broke up with Kayliegh this weekend. They sent texts to one another saying they still loved each other but Lia didn't want to move up North and Kayleigh didn't want to move down South. Kay is gutted, especially as she was told by text message when she was at work. She cried and took all the pictures of Lia down and it's all so sad, and I know there's not a damn thing I can do to make her feel better just now, doesn't mean I don't want to try.

Now I make like a sheep and meme

LJ Interests meme results



  1. boyband slash:
    They're pretty, they look good together, especially when they're in a moaning groaning twist of bodies with kissing and licking and all those other good things. What's not to like about boyband slash?
  2. crack and typewriters:
    Ahahahaha. This may need explaining. At nopseud's mini sparkly con we were discussing the fic_requests comm where someone had just asked for a ficlet where Lance is raped, becomes pregnant and Justin becomes the baby's other daddy. That led to the comment that anything can be written when you've a mindful of crack and a typewriter, or words to that effect anyway. So yes, the people at that con became the crack and typewriter gang ;)

    Btw. Pensnest actually wrote that story if anyone is interested, just with a twist *g*
  3. fastlane:
    My eye candy show. Van and Deaq, Billie and the Candystore. I loved it so much. The show was flashy, fast paced, humorous and so damn slashy. It was also over far too soon.
  4. h/c:
    My favourite kind of story.
  5. kevin richardson:
    You'll all know this but Kevin was my first sdb crush. I was a BSB fan way before I knew about Nsync and Kevin my boy of choice. He was beautiful, all green eyes and dark glossy hair, so so pretty. As he still is now.
  6. music:
    I love music, it's just a background to my life.
  7. popslash:
    Which is the same reply as boyband slash. Pretty popboys who look great together. Popslash is also the fandom I love, full of wonderful people and stories, incredible generosity and really, just somewhere I enjoy being.
  8. savage garden:
    Darren and Daniel....sigh. I miss them. A great duo with some incredible music that I love a lot. Sadly they split leaving us with nothing but memories, and a greatest hits album. Bah!
  9. slashfic:
    I don't know how to cut this down. I just love reading slash, it was like coming home when I found my first online slash groups.
  10. trickc:
    I only have one thing to say.

    It's all about the love.

10 SLEEPS!

Dude, don't say things like that! 'cause OMFG! I'm almost vibrating with excitement about it! All my faourite things and people and food and a nice room (presumably as it sleeps 3 lol) and just sitting around talking and watching and joking and I just can't even express how exicted I am lol

And OMFG I have to choose my moderately-tidy-dinner outfit! Gah!

OOooh, a roomie! You definitely won't get the tiny little room with a view of the wall this year ;)

Yep, I rooming with Interlock this year so no tiny room. I'll have to go past that room and just remember at some time I think. Revel in the fond memories of living over the hotel heating system so a fan was needed just to have some air. And the view of the wall of course *g*

You're a minion?! YAY you! Also yay Charlie and you again! And everyone else going too!

*twirls again*

I don't really know anyone there (with the exception of my friend, but that's because we're going together). I'm nervous! Meep!

I can totally understand why you're nervous. Heck, I am despite knowing a handful of people going, all of whom are fantastic people. All I can say is you'll have a great time, with lots of fannish and non fannish talk with excellent company. And you know if it comes to it I can just fangirl you for puppet Chris *g*

And this makes me guilty, because I actually wanted to finish this story, but I wasn't really motivated and most of the time I opened the file, stared at the words, and an hour later closed it again without adding anything at all. *sigh*

I probably won't talk a lot, just listen to you all talk.

No need to feel guilty. We've all been there when a story just doesn't talk to us. Heck, I've been staring at the Boxes sequel each day for weeks.

And you know even if you do listen that's just fine. You're there and that's all that matters :)

I'm so glad it works! It's always a worry, with second hand things--I mean, it worked here, but still...

Heh, and Corey stopping your heart like that. Not nice. And um, how does one get from porn to white Chinese cracker things? *is confused*

It works just fine, so fine in fact I've rarely had it out of my hand these last few days.

He was thinking of prawn crackers. How he thought they were porn crackers I'll never know.

Hmm, porn crackers, that's bringing up interesting visuals ;)

No need to look, because I have a handy link right here (http://www.livejournal.com/community/fic_requests/97605.html).

Enjoy ;)

holy cow that is a LOT OF CRACK right there. I can't believe you gave me that link. I'm... um... possibly traumatized but most likely amused.

You're making me envious with your Jordan bis thing... I think I'll have to think of buying one of those because the thought of having a portable slash device with me is... kinda too wonderful for words!

This LJ interest meme thing is cool, might have to play too. And it's all nifty too :-)

Having Jordan 2 is just wonderful. It's like, everywhere I go I have a handy slash fix if needed. Because a book is all well and good but sometimes you just need that slashy fix.

Talking of which. I wish my damn Supernatural torrent would hurry up! *glares at it*

The LJ interest thing made me laugh, all those slash words, you'd think I liked the stuff or something ;)

YAY! for fic! YAY!! for Talliswood! YAY!!! for Book of Secrets!!

YAY for... ..wait, what's Mysterious Ways? I don't recognize that title, other than as a U2 song I love, which is funny 'cause I kindahateU2, but anyway...

What's the pairing? is this BSB? Why don't I know this one?

And oh yeah, where can I find it? ;D

Mysterious Ways is here (http://www.infinitepassions.com/linda/mways.html). It's by pierson and is just fantastic. An AU where Chris is a psychic investigator looking for Brihana. It's a Choey though, maybe that's why you haven't read it.

Date: 2005-09-21 09:02 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] ninjetti75.livejournal.com
Ooooohhh, THAT one!

Yes, I've read that one, heh.

Just didn't remember the title.

But that's definitely a classic as far as Choey goes, for sure!

Your poor sister - long distance stuff is hard.

your son, by the way, is fantastic ;)

ten sleeps! ten sleeps till I get to seeeeeeee you! *twirls* [and two sleeps till SISTER!! two!]

I should think about somethig to wear to the moderately tidy dinner. Would a corset be totally OTT?

From: [identity profile] turps33.livejournal.com
Long distance really is hard. Lia's coming up to try and sort things out but if they can't get past this problem about where to live there may not be much point. Then again, at least talking face to face is better than sorting out a relationship by text.

My son frightened the life out of me *g*

TEN SLEEPS! YAY! Except now it's nine and one for your sister!

Last year people wore some fantastic outfits to the moderately tidy dinner so I wouldn't think a corset would be OTT. Plus, I bet you'd look great wearing it which is always a plus :)

I really need to get my Pocket PC up and running again. I've barely used it, and I've never used it for reading fic. I should totally load up some stuff on there for this weekend's trip to Philly. I just need to find the drivers for it so I can install it on this laptop!!

I really love having fic at my fingertips, it's a lifesaver when you're sitting doing nothing. Which is why I read a lot when I'm waiting to meet Corey. Having your pocket pc filled with good fic would be perfect for a week away I think.
