May. 4th, 2007 07:06 pmI've just finished the first draft of remix. I have joy! I've been feeding it to my betas as I go on, so need to change some things they've already suggested then I can send it off for a final beta and hopefully be in plenty of time for the deadline.
Also of the yay. We're going to see Spiderman 3 tonight.
Of the not so yay. I managed to set fire to a pan this morning. I've burned things often, but this was the first time there were actual flames. They were shooting to the ceiling and I had visions of the house burning down. Thankfully while I was dampening a towel they went out, but man, I think I lost a year off my life, plus traumatised poor Corey. I've no idea how it happened either, all I was doing was cooking eggs, turned around to put something in the fridge, and whoosh!
The second not so yay. James was sent home from work earlier because he'd fallen and snapped his leg. Luckily he has another one so we can take the broken one to be fixed.
But! There is more yay to be had! First, you should all go read
nopseud's More to Love, because it rocks so very much. By the end my love for Chris and Justin was just exploding. And, for anyone that read my Lynn/Justin/Lamp ficlet from a few days ago,
mickeym has just this second posted more to it. It now has added Lamp penetration and I'm almost giddy with glee. Man, I love my friends so very much.

Date: 2007-05-04 09:31 pm (UTC)How did you set fire to eggs??? What were you doing to them? basting them with lighter fluid?? Thank heaven you caught it at once!
Poor James - is he okay?

Date: 2007-05-05 08:45 am (UTC)I have no idea what happened with the eggs. I've cooked them a thousand times before, and the actual eggs were fine after, which suggests that something must have fallen on the gas or something. I'm really not sure. All I know it was scary seeing those flames shooting up.
It looks like James has hurt his hip. It's unstable anyway so landing on it full force wasn't a good idea. But, he can still get around and painkillers seem to be taking the edge off. So, I guess it's just time now.

And join the club with the pan thing, I was just boiling up some water when my flames almost burnt my eyebrows off. Turned out my roomate dropped some flammable stuff into the heating elemet and didn;t clean it up. This is also the same roommate who warped two of my pots by starting to boil water and just forgetting about them and LEAVING THE APARTMENT!!!
Sheesh.

Date: 2007-05-05 08:47 am (UTC)I honestly didn't give a thought about mentioning it was his false leg *g*
Suddenly having flames shoot up is damn scary, so I feel for you. But leaving stuff boiling and leaving the apartment. That's just insane!

Date: 2007-05-05 08:07 pm (UTC)Heh. That reminds me of something that happened when I was a teenager. My brother attempted to cook something and then promptly forgot about it. I noticed the smoke coming from the kitchen and in an attempt to extinguish the tiny flames I poured water into the pan, which wasn't a smart thing to do because water and oil = lots more flames.
After that the ceiling wasn't quite like before, but I didn't burn down the house. So, yay. Um. ;-)

Date: 2007-05-12 11:25 pm (UTC)Not burning the house down is always a plus! *g*
I think the natural reaction to fire is throw water on it, but yeah, that's not good at times.

Date: 2007-05-05 09:31 pm (UTC)Yay for remix, though. I haven't been commenting on it, because other people seemed to have it all well in hand, but send it along if you want me to look at it.
And thank you for the rec :-)

Thanks for the remix offer. I'll send it along when I've finished editing this stupid sex scene which is driving me mad and why do they even have to have sex anyway?
You're welcome.
