I woke up to the smell of burning yesterday morning. After a futile search around the house sniffing sockets and the boiler, and a moment my heart stopped when James said he saw smoke, we decided it must be coming from outside. Later I found out that the quarry at the top of my estate was on fire. It still is actually. The quarry is used as a landfill site now, and all you can see is grey smoke and the smell is horrendous. Burning plastic and rubbish and despite all the windows being shut it's seeping into everything. I had a headache all day and I'm sure it was because of that. Thankfully it's not as bad as yesterday, so fingers crossed things are under control now.

I have much glee that Chris was at Justin's concert. Really, I have much pop glee about everything right now. You could mention anything sparkly related and I'd be, OMG YAY! But yes, Justin and Chris. In my world they've always been friends and this just adds evidence to that. I love my world. It's happy and shiny and yay. Well, until I write about them when things go angsty and not yay. I should write something now really, the yay could bleed into it. Happy fic from me, surely not.

Also, this picture makes my heart ache. I love him so. How could anyone boo them?

The crack from last weekend has put me in the mood to tackle the wtf stories again. Thing is, I'm stuck half way through a tentacles story. But it's mpreg next and I have the whole story planned. I know everything that's going to happen, how and why and to who. I want to write it! But those bloody tentacles need taking care of first.

You know, someone needs to organise another happy fic challenge. I'd join it in an instant right now.

Okay, I'm done :D

ETA: I need an intervention. I've just been researching pairing days etc and pondering another happyfic challenge in the summer. But think about it. Sun, unless you're on the other side of teh world, where cold, but cold is happy too! Then snuggling and fires and happy! Or warmth and laughing in the golden sunshine and happy!. Nsync and Backstreet. Any pairing. Someone needs to end this insanity.

It's an inbuilt thing to apolagise, but I won't next time ;)

I think the fans are sometimes more angry with Justin than the guys are and are holding the grudge more than we are.

Yep, you've summed up what I took paragraphs to ramble about.

I know you don't like Justin, but there's a difference between not liking him and the insane bashing I see in some places. I swear, you'd think he goes around clubbing baby seals and eating their flesh the way some people go on.

Besides, if the guys (particularly Chris) can clearly forgive him, then why can't the fans?

I think that fans can get too invested at times. Believe me, I understand why. I've found myself on the verge of a series argument before, when someone said something negative about Chris, but you have to keep some distance.

Nsync is an amazing group, and I'm still holding onto that hope that one day they'll sing together again. Also, to me Nsync is about friendship, about five men who grew up and loved one another. Justin was very much a part of that love and friendship. The person who gets bitterness spat his way is the same guy who worshipped Chris back in the day, who laughed with Lance, hugged JC, was hauled around by Joey.

I understand why people are upset they're not together. But blaming Justin for that is wrong. He was a part of the process of breaking up, but not all.

And now I really will stop venting on *g*

Ahahahaha.

Thank you.

I'll go calm down in corner somewhere now *g*

*mwah*

How are you today anyway? It seems early for you.

I'm good. Kiddo is off to school... So get on here (since I don't have much resembling a living room right now) as I do what little housework I can. *g*

How's everyone there? We all feeling better?

You know, if it weren't for the mess and stress, that would be a good way to get out of housework ;)

We're all good. James at work, Corey at school, and finally my cough is gone. How I wasn't murdered in my sleep last weekend I don't know *g*

I love you. I agree with every word you said, here and above.

Also, a happyfic challenge is an excellent idea.

Thank you :)

I just don't understand some of the hatred thrown Justin's way. Like I said before, not liking his music, or having issues with specific things he's done, I can get that. But hating him just because he's Justin. I'll never understand.

I'm seriously thinking about a happyfic challenge. Anything to get some more fic.

[withdiamonds.livejournal.com]

Like you said, I'm not sure what people expect Justin to do.

More fic would be wonderful. JuC Day didn't really produce a lot of it this year. The other day synchronik referred to popslash as Camelot. But there's still some of us left!

But there's still some of us left!

Exactly! I always worry that people will get sick of me trying to prod various things into action, but I'm willing to do anything to keep this fandom talking and writing.

We've got amazing writers, and there's always newbies. No way is this fandom fading. Our sparkle is not gone.

It won't fade as long as we have you. And as long as we pay attention and nurture it.
