Bored!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Me too! But I have to go to work in 15 minutes and that adds to the suckitude.

I put on my boots and walked to my parents' house which takes about 25 minutes, only to find they weren't home! Waaaaah! ;-)

Ahahahahaha!! You poor thing!

But it wasted an hour nonetheless!

True! Still! So hot, sore feet. And then back to being bored ;-)

*tries not to laugh*

*fails*

:P

And you call ME mean? Sheesh! :-p

Come and paint for me then!

Or make me my icons, I'll even send you the pictures!

Or I don't know. POST!

It's too hot to paint! :-p

Did you send me anything? How can I make you anything without pix? :-p

NO! :-p

Excuses excuses.

I will send you something now!

MEAN!

:-p

About time!

I KNOW! DON'T YELL AT ME! *sniff*

I'm glad the meme was a pick-me-up for you! I never do those memes because I think no one will respond besides not being a meme kind of girl.

I wish I was reading/writing/doing other fun stuff! This week is just work drudgery. It's a real downer after last week's excitement. My most fun thing is rewatching the clip of Frankie rapping. I'm obsessive that way.
*g*

Those kind of memes are shameless attention seeking really, but sometimes that's just what you need. But you know, if you do ever do that kind of meme I'll so be there showering you with affection. Whether you want it or not. Multiple other people too I bet.

Gah, work isn't fun at all. Still, Frankie rapping is an awesome thing to compulsively watch. I have to admit, I've been compulsively watching Brendon do a standing back flip. Just, guh!

I didn't comment, but I do hop you know I love you. ♥

Me, I'm working. Looking up contact information for travel agencies, to be exact. Kind of fun, actually, albeit time-consuming.

I do know that, for you are made of love, happiness and sparkly unicorns *smooch*

How's things going today, work wise? Better I hope.

*smooches you more* And OMG UNICORNS! :D

How's things going today, work wise? Better I hope.
Well, I talked to my contact Åke this morning, and he'd get back to me either today or tomorrow. And now when I came back from lunch, his co-worker who was the one who told me of this job in the first place was here to check on me. I told her my concerns, and she'd talk to Åke about it.

The one who's really supposed to be my supervisor is home today due to arthritis, and I still don't really feel like I'm getting through to my other boss, but we'll see. Also, out of less than three work hours, I've been completely alone in the office for over 1h 20 mins...which is against the rules.

I'm hopeful, though, since Helena said we need to have a meeting - and soon.

Unicorns are love &hearts

That's good that you're talking to someone, because it sucks that you've been thrown in the deep end like that. Still, yes it does sound hopeful.

They're lucky to have you. They should give you the support you need.

Unicorns are love ♥
That they are!

That's good that you're talking to someone, because it sucks that you've been thrown in the deep end like that.
*nods* Exactly.

Still, yes it does sound hopeful.
It really does. The one thing I'm worried about is that the company will see me as disloyal when I tell the job center about things I'd like to change.

They're lucky to have you.
They really are. With the right support, I'm a big asset. Heck, with the wrong support I'm pretty darned good, too. ;)

They should give you the support you need.
They really should.

I am setting up to read The Shoebox Project from the beginning.

:D

Wow. That looks awesome! And not just the chocolate *g*

I know people love the shoebox project a lot so I know you're going to have a fantastic time.

I approve strongly of this plan of yours.

Oh I know, I've read it all before. Which is why I come armed with chocolate because it will be painful if there is none to be had! [shakes fist at Remus] But yes, that is... a lot of pages of fic. Should be a great day! :D

A second read. Awesome! There's nothing better than sinking into a story that you love.

mmm chocolate

It's delicious, plus a necessity when reading Shoebox Project. :D

Everything I'm doing at the moment is a secret. Or totally not fun.

But! Everyday on my way home now, I think of you! Isn't that fun?

There's a yard with a weird--it's probably an eagle, but it's a really malformed eagle--winged statue right by the driveway. And I think, "OMG! Dragon! It's probably got a dead body gripped in its claws! It's stolen from the Way's garden in Terri's fic! Heee~~"

Let's bypass the not fun stuff and concentrate on the secrets then. I knew you were a spy! *g*

OMG! Dragon! It's probably got a dead body gripped in its claws! It's stolen from the Way's garden in Terri's fic! Heee~~"

Oh man. This gives me so much glee, you don't even know!

The glamorous life of international spydom does get a little tedious sometimes. That's why I resort to fanfic. ;)

(Actually, why I used to write under several pennames was because I did have a secret fan identity for a while. Like... even some people that I chatted to on an every-day basis didn't know I was both screennames. I would have told them, but... the first time my alter-ego posted something to the mailing list, two of my chat friends were all "OMG, what a total bitch! Hatehatehate." And I wasn't brave enough to tell them the truth. But I gave it up after a couple years. Too much drama. And I decided to just be my bitchy old self.)

So, anyway. Yes. I am a spy. A happy, gardening AU spy.

I imagine it would be tedious. Go steal some state secrets, blow up a few places, come home and write about boybanders having hot sex. I see how it goes.

That does sound like a load of drama. I would have been torn between being mortified and pissed off in that chat. Still, being yourself has to be the best thing

Though I can see the appeal of having different pen names. I often ponder about writing something ridiculous and posting it to one of the communities that gobble up the badfic. I mean, it wouldn't work in popslash because the fandom is too close-knit, but elsewhere. It could work.

Your icon! I love it so.

Very tedious. ;) That's why I live for the hot-boybander sex moments. And washing the cat, of course.

(Isn't it a great icon? And I barely get a chance to use it any more, except for you!)

My attitude toward badfic has changed a lot. It used to get me all riled up and now I'm pretty laid back about it. Some of it amuses me a lot. And the rest. Well, there's got to be a reason why it's that popular. So let them read badfic--just so long as there's still good stuff for me to read.

You can do the Sex-slave/tentacle fic under an assumed name! You know you want to. *g*

Badfic is something I enjoy reading, but in a very different way to the good stuff. I mean, sometimes stories are so ridiculous that you just have to read and boggle that the writer thought the idea was good. ( Yes Panic story, I'm talking about you ) Others contain my bullet proof kinks, and in that case I'll read the most OOC stuff just to get that hit.

The thing is though, these stories do get comments, lots of them, so people obviously enjoy on a non-badfic level. Because they're crazy like that.

You know me too well! Like this maybe?

Title: Alien v Mikeyway
Author: mikeyluvsme
POV: Mikey's
Notes: Mikey is 16 in this, cos I want him to be.

Mikey shivered as teh tenticle crept closer! The chains around his willowy wrists and ankles had rubed his skin raw and blood trickled down his alabaster skin as he tried to back away.

It came closer!

Whimpering he felt the slick end of tenticle touch his hole. He gasped as it pushed into him, filling him up with green slimy flesh that pulsated. Eyes screwed shut he thought of Gerard. Gerard would come and save him! Gerard always saved him!

A single tear slid down Mikeys face as another tenticle wrapped around his rod, humiliation rearing as the crowd yelled in appoval.

Where was Gerard!?

~*~*~*~

Will Gerard come for Mikey!? If you like it I may write more!

Wow! You must read a lot of badfic, 'cause that is perfect! Go for it! (If you can stomach it.)

(Dude, I'm a little scared now because I started thinking "I really need a tentacle icon.")

And it's comments like this that result in you getting custom lawn statuary sent through international post.

Hee! That would be a surprise indeed!

I'm supposed to be writing my BA thesis. No fun! :(

Meh. Not fun at all. Obviously when that transporter is built we need to pick you up too for chat and hugs with the popslashers in London.

I would love to have left you some love, but those memes always make my computer freak out [lock up, kick me off the internet, you know]. *smishes*

I am not really doing anything fun, as I am at work. Though I feel like I've earned chocolate, since I have steadfastly resisted the overwhelming desire to jam my pen into my co-worker's jugular. *makes with the crazy!eyes*

I'd rather be doing art or loafing around at a coffeehouse. *sighs*

That's fine, smishes now are just as happy making.

You totally deserve chocolate. Lots of it even. *smites annoying co-worker for you*

I wish you could be doing art or at the coffeehouse too.

I just got back from having lunch with iconis and JM and Sam, so the work is being nicely cushioned by the sparkle :D I o wish we could teleport you down here for Boys and hugs.

Oh, that's a fabulous thing to share. I'm so happy for you guys.

I'm getting ready for work.

I have the first chapter of a new au vampire story ready to go for my "Its gonna be May" offering for the 21st and I'm trying to get the next chapter written.

Work, meh. Unless you love it in which case. Work, yay!

But what is a total YAY is vampire fic. That's made of awesome!

Yep, the vampire fic is definately yay! :) I can't wait to post it and hopefully get some feedback.

I would have commented in the "things I like about you" post but I was kinda confused about how it worked*lol* so I'll just comment here.

Things I like about you;

Your kindness.
Your love for all the guys of Nsync including Justin*lol*.
Star Trek Voyager fan!.
Including my posts in your pop newsletter.

You're such a sweetheart. Thank you &hearts

I'm happy to hear that people said lovely things about you because you ARE lovely!! My mother & sister & b-i-l was here last night, that's why you didn't get anything from me but I hope you know what I think about you anyway *smishes you*

Well, earlier today I was at my sister's house and had tea/coffee with her and my mother and watched them garden. (She got to make use of our mother today and I get her tomorrow :-) Right now I'm at the computer catching up on the flist and watching Lancecat spy on the birds outside.

I totally know anyway. *mwah*

That sounds like a lovely way to spend a day. I really like that you get to see your family so often now :)

Writing! Well, at this very second I am about to make myself lunch. But I've been plugging away at Remix, recently finished a birthday fic for

phaballa (who has been away and not able to read it yet, but you should!), and pulling out my Dragon fic occassionally.

and trying to find a summer job that isn't McDonald's :P

You put me to shame with your writing efforts. Go you!

Is that the Wipeout fic? If so I've had it tabbed for ages, but I shall go and read now.

Good luck with the job hunt.

Haha, sometimes I get really inspired.

Indeed it is. :D

I just got home from a trip to Sussex to see my grandad, during which there was the endless hilarity of a 67 year old and a 96 year old trying to work out why a mobile phone had stopped working. I sat back and giggled for about ten minutes before stepping in. *g* Now I'm home I'm going to beta the fic that in my inbox and then write fic of my own. huzzah.

I can easily imagine the hilarity of that *g*

Just the thought of my nanna with a mobile makes me laugh. She rocks but even the video baffles her.

Oh, fic. Anything you can tell me about? Yours I mean, I'm not after beta secrets.

The phone thing was sitcom-like in its hilarity. I could have watched them for hours, but that would have been cruel! My uncle gave the phone to my grandad for 'emergencies' about four years ago and all he uses it for is to call taxis when he's been out and about in Brighton at a RAFA do or a meeting of the cactus society (don't ask!) he's the chairman of - which is fine, except that a) he didn't realise he needed to put credit on it and b) he uses it so rarely that the network he was on obviously decided he didn't use it at all and disconnected him. Which is what it turns out was the problem. LOL. (So we took a trip to Haywards Heath and I marched him into the Orange store and got him set up with a new sim card, topped up his phone and then, when we got back to his house, found the nearest top up place and showed him how that works. With a lot of help from the shopkeeper who, luckily, knows him and has promised to help him out when he needs it.)

Woo, I'm rambly today.

Fic - the fic I am betaing is a Lost fic so you probably wouldn't be interested anyway. The fic I am writing is the result of the other fics I am working on refusing to write themselves, thus my brain went to it's default setting and said 'hey, let's write Ryan/Jon'. So I am. In a vague turning into GSF kind of a way. *hands*

Apparently I'm working on vaguely underage Brendon/Spencer porn... I'm not quite sure how it happened, except that it has quite effortlessly gone up over the 1000 word mark. (and therefore much less painful than my essays!)

\o/

This makes me very happy!

I am doing NOTHING. NOTHING, I tell you! I'm sitting on my couch watching Will and Grace! I'm not reading! I'm not writing! I feel curiously post-fandom. :( But I am going to three Panic shows this weekend, so that should be an excess of fun!

I like everything about you, Terri! You always make me smile.

Doing nothing sounds good to me, especially when you've been so busy. I like the thought that you can just kick back and relax.

&hearts

Writing something for you. Almost done actually. XD

You're such a sweetheart *mwah*

Right this second, I'm reinstalling yet more software on my flipping computer, and talking to someone from college on the phone. I hate XP {sadface}

Oh man. That wasn't a fun thing to be doing at all. Well, the call could have been fun I suppose.

late reply I know. I'm drawing right now a pic for a picture JAM and my tutorial illustration.

Boring stuff I know.

I don't mind late replies at all.

And it may be boring to you, but I like hearing what you're up to :)
