Following a link I've been reading this blog about someone's experiment to be a 50's housewife for a fortnight. I'm only a few days in and know that it's good that I wasn't a housewife in the 50's, because I would have ended up punching someone in the face. Getting prettied up before you even make coffee in the morning. What is this madness?

A few days ago our kettle stopped working. After terrible moments contemplating a life without tea, coffee and hot chocolate, we bought a new one. The old one was still under warranty, and this morning it was picked up by a courier. It was wrapped in bin bags tapped down with medical tape and a cable tie. The label was stuck on with more medical tape and made out of an old scrap of cardboard. We are the classiest ever.

[livejournal.com profile] lumikki_fee posted pictures of Mikey from a concert here. I can't seem to stop looking at the one from the after show signing, also, reading concert reports, this picture here. Look at that profile and smile ♥

Staying on the subject of Mikey, I'm pleased to see that the threesome with Pete and Gabe has been agreed, but mostly what I've been thinking about is how he tends to take pictures of things, like the signs for My Chem dressing rooms. I like to think he takes pictures like that all the time. The first concert when they came back, hiding side stage and taking a picture of the crowd. The empty box that used to contain the dye Gerard used on his hair, and maybe the dark strands lying on the floor from when it was cut. Two baby wrist bands on Frank's open hand, So many memories captured in picture form.

I think I've mentioned that [livejournal.com profile] crowgirl13 provides an informal, friendly place to chat about creative stuff done in November, and yesterday she did a comment fic free for all which resulted in some great stuff. My own contribution was a scrap of Ray centric gsf but there was also so incredible other stuff. Frank centric, Mikey centric, Mikey/Pete, Ray centric as well as responses away from MCR. I do recommend you go read, because T has some insanely talented people on her flist.

And now I'm going to make tea, because we've been out and now I'm hungry.

So, it's a occupational slide? That makes sense. And if Gee's sliding into frontmen, then Pete also fits.

Wait, wait. Isn't it Mikey to Gabe and Gerard to Vicky-T? Okay, that part doesn't work...

The real question is - how does this start? There has to be a catalyst.

But they never end up in the same band at the same time! Oh, the tragedy! lol

Woe! WOOOOOOOOEE!!!
[Frank is finding wee sharpie vampires all over the place. They are all very dejected little dudes.]

Haha, yeah, I guess we can have them slide into whoever's the most convenient lol

Awwww, that is the cutest thing ever. They start leaving messages for each other! Little notes and sketches, and then hugs and like, chaste kisses. Like in that movie, Knight's Tale! Frank will wake up in X's body and band member Y will come up to him and go "Er, Gerard was just here? He kinda ... left this for you?" and smack him on the lips real quick before wiping their mouth with the back of their hand. *g*

As for the triggering factor ... I'm going to go with freak electrical storm. Or the good old bump at the back of the head? I guess we can't blame Pete Wentz for everything and make him the inventor of a fancy maching that was supposed to be a time-travel device but totally got out of hand? lol

And by convenient we mean ridiculous.

His are the saddest vampires EVER. Frank would call him to mock their emo-ness, maybe send Gee a half dozen copies of Interview with the Vampire to drive the point home, but he's feeling pretty dejected too.

OMG, THAT IS THE CUTEST and also deeply lolworthy.

Freak electrical storm in LA...could work. If it's related to the El Nino weirdness, that makes sense.

Hee! Pete Wentz or Mikey's inability to operate household appliances. Both are right out. Gee knocked himself out at the gym, the first time he tries the weight machines without a trainer?
