I have a tab open to join up for [community profile] rpf_big_bang

Pluses. I enjoyed it last year and I got a lovely mix with beautiful cover art.
Minuses. The long waiting time to post and the fact that I don't actually have a concrete story idea.

I don't know. It's not like I need to be in a big bang challenge to write something long, but it is fun to be involved, especially as I flaked on BBB yet again. Also, I do have an idea, but one that's so angst and h/c filled that no one would ever want to create art or a mix for it. Oh well, I have time to decide yet.

Talking of h/c. I had a House dream last night. One where Chase collapsed in House's office/diagnosing room thing and I woke up and reminded myself to watch that episode again because I liked it so much. Only to realise that it's not an actual episode at all. Damn you Pit of Voles and your countless Chase collapsing stories. Damn you to hell!

I spent the last weekend putting the living room back into order. Pictures on the wall and bringing stuff back in. Then today we went and ordered the new carpet so it all needs taking out again on Thursday. Still, by Friday night it'll be all done and hopefully looking awesome. We also bought new curtain rods today, but despite measuring first they're too short. Decorating, why so difficult? Or the real question, decorators, why so faily?

It looks like I'm still getting no comment notifications to my comm posts, or to comments. I don't know whether this is the same issue that hasn't be solved since before CS or something new. Which ever it is, apologies if you asked something in comments and I haven't replied.

Sign up! You know you want to ;-D And you already seem to have a story idea, even if it's your usual h/c angst fest. Which a lot of people actually like, strange as it seems to me, so I don't think you'll have to worry about noone wanting to mix or do art for it. What is it anyway?

New carpet!! I've had the same thing happen to me, I thought I'd measured so carefully but the holes I'd drilled for the shelf still ended up too far apart. Good luck with getting everything finished and back to order. (I demand pictures of the finished result!)

That's strange. Are you getting any notifications at all? There seems to be some problems with some comment notifications according to the Known Issues page:
LiveJournal developers are currently investigating reports that notifications are not being sent for certain types of comment notifications, including tracked threads. Until this issue is resolved, we cannot guarantee you will receive all of your comment notifications.

You are so evil to the Panic boys, I approve ;-)

Yay! Now you'll hopefully get all your comment notifications again. I hate when something fucks with notifications and you have to keep going back to old entries manually to see if someone's said anything.

Cold, wet and hurt Panic boys who've run away and are then rescued by Gerard who takes them back to the house he shares with Mikey. Lots of angst and mistrust and Gerard trying his best for people who don't want his help.

Dude, that's the story of my heart.

Just as a guideline, you hit just about every button I've ever had in "When Day is Night Alone". You know, if you still need to make any plot decisions. Just saying. :)
