I downloaded Elliot Minor's new CD earlier and oh man, I love it. I love them. Solaris. Give them a go if you fancy trying some new music.

I joined [livejournal.com profile] wrisomifu yesterday, a community where you pledge to write at least 10 minutes every day in November. I figure it's what I need to get off my ass and actually get the stories done that need to be done. If you're interested in joining you can do so in this post or this one.

I have a ridiculous amount of fic tabbed at the moment, including the vast majority of the h/c challenge stories. I was looking forward to those so much and haven't had a chance to actually read. It's to cry.

My dad unexpectedly came to visit this afternoon. I hadn't told him what was going on so he wouldn't worry, but my brother let it slip so dad made his way over. It was lovely to see him and actually get a chance to talk as when we're at nanna's he tends to get drowned out. Then not long after he left the FiL arrived for a few hours. When he'd gone I had a nap, because apparently I really am 5 years old right now.

[livejournal.com profile] mahoni has set up a very awesome Bob community. [livejournal.com profile] bryar_collected. There's good Bob there, you should go check it out.

Finally. You guys are all kinds of awesome at cheering a person up. Thank you ♥

I keep on debating signing up for wrisomifu. It would help me complete my goals for the year, but at the same time, even 10 minutes a day seems daunting. *thinks about it anyway*

I read one or two of the H/C stories that were pretty good. The Brendon/Spencer one where Brendon gets kicked out of his house and then gets sick was awesome.

Aww, that was so sweet of your Dad to come over!

I think it's a very doable challenge, and from what I've seen no big deal if you can't complete. Plus, the chance to bitch about writing. Which I do to you anyway, but you know. We'd get a wider audience this way *g*

I've had that story tabbed for ages. I want to read! Roll in glorious h/c until it's seeping out of my pores. Much like the blood and sweat of a typical OTT h/c fic \o/

It was such a surprise to see him. Walking is an issue for him these days and it would have been a slog for him to get up the bank but he got here.

You just want me to bitch about writing too! I'm seriously considering it... luckily I have time to decide.

Hee! You H/C addict, you.

Bitching about writing is fun! Plus, if you bitch it'll be a two way street when I'm doing my usual moaning on *g*

I know how you feel about the tabs. I am down to one tab of fic right now but am itching to re-read some things and soon it will no be so!

TERRI I LOVE YOU! (ps give me another prompt for that meme I'm doing because I want to and I will not take no as an option! >:|)

My tabs are out of control and it's all stuff that I really want to read, too.

*smooches you* You're the best. Hope you don't mind me answering here instead of twitter, I'm feeling a little better today. I took the last dose of steroids this morning and am hoping when I wake up I'll be a little more clear-headed.

No need to Mikey face me, like I'd ever turn down the chance of more writing from you ♥

[identity profile] saxihighlandck.livejournal.com 2009-10-23 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
<3 I know the feeling. I do I do.

Here is fine bb. *smooches and cuddles and loves on* It should help. I've done steroid rounds before and you do become unfuzzy!*nodnod*

:D But the Mikey face is a classic and it always will be. <333

I love hearing others bitch about their writing but I don't want to commit to writing ten minutes a day for a whole month so I'm not going to join.

Hopefully you'll start feeling more energetic again soon. *keeps fingers crossed*

That must have been a nice suprise even if it tired you out completely.

You're a light-weight! *g*

I have to say, I like hearing people bitch about writing, too. It's nice to know it doesn't just flow out effortlessly at all times.

Well, I finished my meds today so that should help. I hope so, I miss writing and reading and actually concentrating on stuff.

It was a fantastic surprise.

I wonder if trying to translate and/or write out all those recipes I keep thinking I should post in my journal would amount to ten minutes work a day for a month or if it's cheating?

[personal profile] sperrywink 2009-10-24 12:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Totally not cheating! Go for it- join Terri and me in our misery!

From what I saw it's a challenge to get writing done, whatever form that takes. Come on, you know you want to spy on people bitching *g*

You know what you would write with that? Your MtYG story!

How awesome that your dad came over! That sounds really nice. Also naps, naps are nice (and for grown-ups too!).

My dad is the best <3

It's good naps are for grown ups because I've taken so many lately. I even have a pillow left on the couch for that purpose.
