pointless post is pointless - I am still alive for anyone who was wondering. ;)

I love how when my extra userpics expired (thank you machka), lj just randomly picks ones for me to keep. stop trying to read my mind lj, it's a little freaky, mkay?

my inlaws are still here. that is all I have to say about that.

I made cake, and it was good. so good apparently, that one of the customers at the bank I work at paid me to make him one. please pause while I daydream about working in a bakery and actually having an awesome job.

my boss wants me to wear red white and blue to work on friday. I think I scared her with the face I made at that suggestion.

remember that time when I used to keep up with my flist and like, contributed to things? yeah, that was fun. I sorta miss y'all.

remember that time when I started slipping y'all into my daily speech? yeah, wtf when did that shit happen? also - why do my co-workers make fun of me for saying 'wicked', as in 'wicked awesome'? that is totally an acceptable adjective adverby type thinger. at least I don't say 'fail-sauce' on a regular basis.

um, I think that's all. for now. *waves*

dear flist.

i fail at being motivated enough to post here. i swear i do not hate you. well maybe the random spam bot that friended me today, but the rest of y'all are chill. eventually i will stop being made of fail and get around to being interesting enough to post again.

i blame my in-laws, moving, working full time, my kids, the economy and canada for my fail. (okay, i'm lying about the canada part.)

i swear to y'all, this is the last time i'm moving. (really, i mean it this time.)

love, me.



*smooch*

stress = maximum levels

hoping that the closing for the house actually happens tomorrow.

we are apparently getting two cats on Friday.

how did I manage to schedule the day of my move for the night of the idol finale?  thank god for husband deciding we need a dvr with our cable package.

I may need some encouragement to make it through the next 24 hours. Please to be leaving me some comments of sunshine and pretty boys. Y'all know what I like by now ;)

also, hi! Sorry I am invisible lately. *waves*

I. HATE. PACKING.

:(

so I'm home and the kids are already asleep and the husband is at work and I haven't written anything in forever, so if anyone might possibly want to try and jump start me...


Leave me a comment with a prompt - a song lyric, a photo, a title, any or all of the above - and a pairing, and I'll try to write a little something for you in response.

I've got a little bit of free time tonight, so what the heck ;)

1. Reply to this post, and I will pick six of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.

livehead16 gave me the following:







( gotta get los angeles out of me )keywords: OTP: cookmann
why: sigh, I never could choose just one OTP you know, lol. </div>

or some strange mix of it all.

OMG I love when people are awesome. Like how I prompt brin_bailey  with DFCook/Anyone and she comes outa left field with freaking DFCook/Mandy Moore ficlet of awesome.

what, you're still here? GO, READ, BE AMAZED.

So while cleaning out some files on my computer, I ran across some writing that I had forgotten about that I don't think made it into any posted fic.

(how sad is it that I don't know for sure if something was posted?)

And since I'm not sure if I'll ever go back and finish them, I figured what the hell I'll throw them up here.

Isn't this a meme? Possibly so. Let's call it fic amnesty. Got any fic laying around that's never going to get finished? Go ahead and post it up in your journal. Who knows, maybe someone will inspire you to give it an end (or a beginning or a middle, whatever the case).

Dave/Andy, proprietary

It wasn’t supposed to happen ( ... )

Tiemann/Archuleta, hiding in plain sight

You look at Neal and you can’t help but think bad things about him( ... )

DC/Carly, fidelity

He can remember the first time he saw Carly Smithson with crystal clarity( ... )

I just moved my DC fandom fic to my IJ account (for archiving) and wow, I have not written a lot. In fact, I only had seven things to post. Er, maybe I should get to writing?

in the plus column: hubby brought home a new office chair last night

in the minus: I am apparently out of brown sugar. why did I not know this when I was at wal-mart yesterday?

possibly plus: I am absolutely getting a hair cut tomorrow.
