I quite like Lance's new hairdo it's interesting.

I was thrilled to find a lovely Mikey/Frank ficlet this morning on my friendsfriends read. It's by stereomer and is set when they were living together, which delighted me, because there should be many more stories about that time.

While I'm throwing links around nokomis305 is thinking about setting up a community for the non-FBR bands of bandom. Poll is here

I now have 3000 words of the Panic/MCR shelter story, and haven't even finished the second scene. What happened to those days when 10k was a long fic?

Corey's school has just emailed and phoned to let me know he has half an hour's detention tomorrow. He also had a letter but said he'd forgotten about it, which, yeah. It seems he got 15 minutes for being late and missing assembly, then didn't turn up for that detention, so it's been doubled. While this is the first time he's been in trouble at the school, his first late in fact, he's going to learn that he just can't forget about stuff. So he's not allowed on the computer or X Box tonight. Which is why he's wandering the house like a lost soul. He turns 13 in a few weeks, and man, can you tell.

LOL, it looks like Lance is channeling Vanilla Ice. :)

[canadiandreamr.livejournal.com]

Heh... I didn't even see the comments on the linked page, just the picture before jumping to my own conclusion. :)

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Ahahaha. He so is.

Vanilla Ice, his was one of the first albums I ever bought. Ice Ice Baby *g*

"Rollin', in my 5.0 with my ragtop down so my hair can blow, girlies on standby, wavin' just to say hi"

LMAO.

(I seriously can't believe I ever thought he was hot. I was only 14 at the time, so what did I know?)

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Man, I thought he was hot too, working those trousers *g*

[canadiandreamr.livejournal.com]

I thought MC Hammer was hot too, but don't tell anyone. ;)

I have to confess that I am not a fan of the new Lance hairdo at all. It's like a mohawk mullet, and as a Southern boy, he should know better than to court any form of mullet.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Mohawk mullet is the perfect description. That and a nod to Vanilla Ice.

[turloughishere.livejournal.com]

It's strangely reminiscent of Frank's (http://pics.livejournal.com/turloughishere/pic/00hb7typ) hair (http://pics.livejournal.com/turloughishere/pic/00hb1t7w) style (http://pics.livejournal.com/turloughishere/pic/00hb8aya) back in early 2003 :-)

What happened to those days when 10k was a long fic?

You got over it? ;-)

Awwww, Corey's starting to behave like a real teenager, so cute!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

It is! If Lance starts with the eye make-up we know he's a secret fan *g*

I wish I could get back into it. Still, the long stories tend to be balanced out by the really short.

It's not cute! He's in his room now but keeps coming down saying he's got nothing to do, but tough.

[turloughishere.livejournal.com]

Poor baby! Has he never heard of books ;-)

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Strangely enough he reads a lot, but only in the bath and in bed. It didn't seem to click he could do so in the time he's usually on his x box. He's drawing now though, so all is calm.

[yami-tai.livejournal.com]

He turns 13 in a few weeks, and man, can you tell.

Oh, I hope he doesn't turn into Kevin the Teenager!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Oh, I hope he doesn't turn into Kevin the Teenager!

Me too!

I don't actually mind Lance's new hair. Perhaps not his best look ever, but certainly not nearly as horrible as people on my FL would have me believe. :)

So what does FBR mean? I like to keep track of fandom acronyms. :)

[turloughishere.livejournal.com]

Fueled By Ramen, it's a record label.

[rikes]

Now that sounds familiar!

[turloughishere.livejournal.com]

I think Fall Out Boy and all the other minor bands associated with Pete Wentz are signed to it. Well, except those associated with My Chemical Romance :-)

[turps33.livejournal.com]

It's a fun haircut, and he's enjoying it, which I think it all that matters really.

[woolly-socks.livejournal.com]

I like the haircut too! I'm a firm believer that hair is for goofing around with, not handling delicately like it's your first born.

The comments are amusing.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

That's a fantastic way to think. I mean, it does come down to, hair grows. If you mess it up too much it'll come back.

[woolly-socks.livejournal.com]

That has been my experience, yes. *g*

I did, however, get drunk st my sister's graduation when I was 19 and then let my friend cut my hair. That was bad. I had to wear a hat for weeks.

But as long as excessive alcohol isn't involved, I see no reason not to approach hair with a sense of adventure.

[withdiamonds.livejournal.com]

I like Lance's hair, too. It's fun, and also, it's not permanent. Hair grows.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

It is fun. He's had the nearly the same cut all his life, he should play with it.

[saba1789.livejournal.com]

Oh, I like Lance's new hairdo, too! :D

Yay for lots of words for the Panic/MCR shelter story!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

It's a fun cut!

Saba, this story. Why can't they be wrapped up in 10k?

[saba1789.livejournal.com]

Exactly!

Because I really like very long stories? And everything is all about me at all times? So no wrapping up stuff in 10k for you! *g*

[feelingcold.livejournal.com]

I like the hair, but those racing stripes (uh... that's what we called them when I was 8, I think they say 'steps' elsewhere in the world) are a bit awkward. They should be longer... or something?

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I agree, the cut itself but the stripes are a little short. I'm just going to think he did them himself and couldn't reach back any further *g*

[vaudevilles.livejournal.com]

Wow - first detention! You've done so well to get him to (nearly) 13 with him being such an exemplary student. I have to admit that the thought of puberty scares the hell out of me - though the boyo is totally welcome to cut his hair however he wants.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

The teen years scare the heck out of me. But we'll get through them somehow.

At least you have time to prepare *g*

[frausorge]

Oh, Lance! Still keeping 'em guessing! ♥

I hope Corey's learned his lesson. No computer! When I think that we didn't even have a computer when I was 13...

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Lance. He's made of awesome.

I didn't have a computer then either. Technology moves so fast, it's amazing.

[solariana.livejournal.com]

I'm not so fond of Lance's new cut, but it'll grow and he'll change it eventually. It could be worse. He's having fun playing with it (perhaps inspried by Lacey?). Of course I'd have more fun if he'd let me play with it *G*. I'm quite admiring his scarf which looks like a handmade thing, obviously the work of JC (I can still dream).

Ah, the terrible teens. A lot of growing pains in the early years. You & James have done a wonderful job with Corey, so I'd imagine the teen years may not be as rough as some families tend to go through.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Of course it's made by JC! It has his stamp all over it :D

Yeah, the teens look like they're going to be interesting for sure *g*

[castalie.livejournal.com]

I now have 3000 words of the Panic/MCR shelter story, and haven't even finished the second scene.

Wheeeeeeeee! This is gonna be glorious \o/

And oh, the joy of having a teenager at home! It's a good thing Corey is such a great kid to start with - still, good luck :-)

[turps33.livejournal.com]

OMG. Sis. 6000 words and they haven't even ran away yet. It worries me.

Yeah, he is a good kid. Just very frustrating at times.
