    So... about yesterday.
    As some of you know, yesterday included a trip to the vampires and some of the usual testing. So, yeah, that tires me out anyway. But then, one of my closest friends called upset and in tears.

    Let me say, cancer sucks.

    Five years ago, she had to have a hysterectomy because of cancer. This past summer she finally hit her 5-year clear mark. Then yesterday she found out she has breast cancer.

    Talk about a slap in the face. *sighs*

    So, anyway. My mood still sucks. I can hold onto pissiness like nobody else. But, for Michi, I'm trying to let it go and be upbeat and what have you. We'll see how that works out.

    Thanks for the emails. I didn't respond to them all, as some of you told me not to and for once I listened. But they did mean a lot. So, yeah, thanks for that.

    Speaking of voting...
    I am utterly disappointed in all of you. Well. All but thirteen of you!

    Thirteen is a good number, but fifteen beats it. Why is that significant? Because fifteen of you voted to allow [info]lilyseyes to beat me in my utterly fair and balanced poll.

    But fear not, my brave thirteen! [info]leela_cat wrote us a fic ANYWAY! Because we are obviously awesome. *nod nod*

    Deathfic! Yay!!!

    Go forth, ye fabulous ones, and read There Had Been a Plan.

    Garrrr
    I had awesome plans to go to bed with hubby and do the snuggly thing and just forget about my current fic for a while. And then the need to write propelled me out of bed (hubby was already asleep, so it's not like I interrupted anything *coughs*). So here I sit.

    Like a lump on a log.

    Which means, of course, that it's time again for another round of fic bitching! *crowd goes wild*

    Character B... oh, Character B. Why must you intimidate me so? Also, what's with the personality disorder you seem to have? Don't you know I want to make you happy in the pants? Cuz I do. I want to make you so happy in the pants that you come back for more (yes, pun is totally intended).

    So why, then, aren't you cooperating?

    Character A? I'm not sure exactly where you're going with this, but it's unlike you to be reticent. So maybe just cut it out and jump Character B's bones? I realize you're trying to be a better person or whatever, but come ON, man. This fic is due in just over a week and we are at a stand still.

    Characters C through infinity? Rock on with your bad selves. I love you all. Seriously.

    Me? Please stop with the Britglish in this fic. It's not only not necessary but also... you're doing it wrong!

    A whopping 369 words so far today. Which is kinda cool in the fact that any number with 69 in it is obviously shooting for porn, but less cool in the "I still have a lot to write" way.

    So come on, self. Characters. We have an hour and a half. Let's get this thing going!

    Dear Mr. Kinney,
    You are a pain in my fucking ass.

    Can we not just take the pup home and train him? Please?

    He's ready. I'm ready. It's just you, and this all of a sudden desire to explain yourself that is holding up my fucking porn.

    Very limited love,
    Minxie

    In a bid to add more to [info]eeyore9990's flist...
    ...I am posting.

    :P

         		12:10p
    There's no reason for this post
    I'm just tired of refreshing my flist to see that no one's updated.

    How am I supposed to procrastinate if y'all aren't posting?!

    Fwump!
    I have written 1585 words today on my [info]happy_trekmas fic, and basically wrote straight to the end of the "outline" I managed to come up with yesterday.

    Which means I'm fresh out of ideas. Crap.

    However, I do know how the porn is going to go (fics must be R/NC-17, so I'm not giving away too much by saying there's gonna be porn, lol), so if worse comes to worse I'll write that and just wait for further inspiration on the rest.

    Inspiration, however, usually comes in the form of having my hands in water (can't write if they're in water), so I'm going to go clean my kitchen and hope for the best.

    Yay. Housework. Yaaaaaaaay.

    Did everyone on LiveJournal - yes, I know, it's the bad place - decide fucking lj-cuts were useless today? Honestly, some posts - like those really picture heavy ones - need a cut.

    Edited to add... and WTF is the purpose of posting a search request - to a search comm - in large, bold font? It's a fucking search comm. Really, people will see it. Promise.

    Okay, screw it. I'm just going to ask for the information I need and hope like hell that someone out there, in the recesses of internet deep space, knows the answers. None of this is important to my plot, but you know that as soon as I put the crews quarters on deck 6, I'll get zapped by a ST canon nazi.

    Where are the crew's quarters? How are they accessed?

    In ST:TNG, Picard has a "ready room". Does Kirk on the NCC-1701 have anything similar to this? Or just some place that he and his senior officers can go to make plans/take classified transmissions from Starfleet? I mean, as awesome as it would be for him to be constantly calling "conferences" in his quarters, I just don't think that's logical from a professional standpoint.

    Any help would be awesome.

    ETA: [info]mimiheart found it here. It's an awesome reference for anyone writing ST fic.

    Whee!
    Fic the First is done!

    Tomorrow I begin plugging away at Fic the Second. *happy dance of joy*

    I am on track to finish all my fics early(ish) which will be absolutely awesome! I don't normally miss deadlines, but it's always nice to know that I won't be turning in rushed fics. I don't have to rush! Whee!

    Also, the best part about the rest of the fics I have to write? My outlines for them make it totally reasonable to bring them all in under 5k each. How awesome is that?!

    *absolutely elated*

    Busy, Busy... Not.
    My list of things to accomplish today is rather self-serving. Totally works for me. *smirk*

    * Read the entries for the fall challenge at QAF Scavenger.

    * Read the entries for the weather/vacation challenge at QAF Challenges.

    * Figure out which plot bunny to feed and nourish next.

    See, completely self-serving.

    What are your plans for today?

    Jello Wrestling!
    Okay, guys, y'all are used to the weird around here, so just go with it.

    [info]lilyseyes and I are virtually jello wrestling over what sort of drabble [info]leela_cat is going to write for us. Whoever wins gets their choice.

    The catch? Y'all decide who wins!



    If I win the jello wrestling, [info]leela_cat will write (any length, including drabble) death fic!


    If [info]lilyseyes wins.... well. We're just not going to let that happen. Are we? *she asked in a vaguely threatening tone*

    So!

    Vote, and may the best man woman win!

    Poll #4530 Jello Wrestling!! (AKA, a not at all biased poll)
    Open to: All, results viewable to: All

    Who do you think should win the jello wrestling contest? (And by "who do you think should win", I'm totally not suggesting that you should automatically vote for me....)

    Ah, life
    So, the people coming over thing tonight went really well. Fun was had, house stayed clean. Which means I don't have to do much between tonight and tomorrow when people coming over redux happens. PLUS!!! Halloween! Yay!

    I still haven't decided what I'm going to go as. I have a variety of "costumes" to choose from. I suppose I'll just pick something appropriate to my mood and the weather tomorrow.

    Love to all!

    I need a To Do List for my day
    Or I know I'll forget something and there will be grumpy!husband of grumpiness when he gets home.

    • Laundry. Must get at least one-two loads done, including folding and putting away. (So that I can hide two more loads in the washer and dryer, heh.)
    • Clean bathrooms
    • Clean kitchen and sweep/mop, including mud room
    • Clean bedrooms and make beds
    • Clean off back porch
    • Child proof house
    • Go grocery shopping for odds and ends (and Halloween Candy yay!)
    • Find a new place for dog's cage so she's not right next to the table where we'll be sitting
    • Vacuum floors @ 4:30-ish. Clean any spots.
    • Make taco/quesadilla-stuffs
    • Make Halloween cupcakes (need to have them in the oven by 3 o'clock-ish)
    • Marinade chicken for tomorrow's round of guests
    • Get some makeup so I can figure out a costume for myself! :P
    • Clean out fridge and make kool-aide, tea, and other drinkie stuff

    I'm having people over tonight. I figured Mexican buffet-style for munchies. Am I forgetting anything? I don't entertain very often, lol.

    Bitching Works!
    So remember how I was bitching about the fic I'm writing and how it was going painfully slow and I was afraid I was going to kill myself to finish it on my deadline?

    Yeah, so the bitching worked. Not only have I successfully managed to write a scene per day on the fic (to reach my goal, that was what I needed) but I wrote 2.5k on the fic last night. I am so pumped.

    If I bitch more, do you think I'll finish it today?! *g*

    FIC: To Feel You Again ~ Brian/Justin ~ Teen
    Title: To Feel You Again
    Author (Beta): [info]the_minx_17 ([info]vl_redreign *glomps and gropes*)
    Fandom (Pairing) – Rating: QAF (Brian/Justin) – Teen (language/situations)
    Word count: ~9200
    Summary: They may forget what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel. ~Carl W. Buechner
    Highlight for Warnings: *Early S2 AU, original characters (secondary background)*
    Disclaimer: Nothing about Queer as Folk is mine. Well, except the fricking addiction.
    AN: Yes, yes. Mentioned a bit ago… it's the amnesia!fic cliché. It has to be a fandom cliché… even if I can't find many of the others. Massive thanks to [info]fun_demented for dealing with my OCD, letting me ramble my thoughts out, helping in the research, poking at things that didn't sit well, etc. And, *hugs* to [info]in_ahaze and [info]stepmnstr for the prereads and encouragement.

    Huge thanks to [info]fun_demented. With her helping hand, the first draft of the amnesia!fic is done. She is brilliant at dealing with my OCD habits. *dances more*

    Now it is time to print it off and revise, revise, revise.


    And then I find this...

    Cheerios Tweak


    Oh, Tweak... only if you knew why this is so much more amusing to me than it normally would be. *snickers*
