1) This is the kind of anonymous meme I can get behind. \o/ (Nope, still haven't read any of the comments on the other one, so if you said something nasty about me over there, you're pretty much just talking to yourself. :P)
2) Classes start up again tomorrow. I'm quite looking forward to it. Well, technically classes started today, but I don't have any Monday classes, BWEEE. Three day weekend!
3) I am so tired of having cold feet. D: But I can't quite bring myself to spend masses of money on good quality warm socks. *l*
4) DINNER TIME.

I discovered last night that this internet is slow between the hours of 9am and 2am. So, when I AM CONSCIOUS. Booo-urns. But I also discovered that although it is slow, it is UNLIMITED, which means that I can set up stuff to download overnight! I also grudgingly forked out for a megaupload premium account because 99.9% of the stuff I want to download is on MU and I get sick of the slow speed and limited access. Then I set up a whole caboodle of stuff to download, and when I got up this morning, I had the remaining episodes of Leverage, Pushing Daisies, Dollhouse, and The Big Bang Theory waiting for me. :D
I was reading textsfromlastnight and happened upon this one. I immediately said AHAHA OMG STORY OF MY LIFE and then foolishly clicked on the comments. I gave up in disgust at the sheer volume of people saying 'ewwww you're unhygienic!' (although usually spelled 'your unhygenic!') because god forbid someone not shave their legs for a few weeks. Where the fuck did this crazy-ass preconception that body hair = DIRTY come from anyway?? I don't get it. PEOPLE HAVE BODY HAIR. It's only unhygienic if you never wash. I wonder how many of those comments were from 14 year old boys whose only experience of naked women is of porn stars.
I get angry with people who say that not shaving is dirty.
I also get angry with people who say that shaving is repressive and a double standard and women who shave their legs are bowing to the patriarchal societal mores.
SHAVING = MY CHOICE.
And now I will get dressed and code all the awesome fic that people wrote on the comment meme!

And now I will get dressed and code all the awesome fic that people wrote on the comment meme!

This is just like any other comment-fic meme. The premise for this one? RPS CRAZY AUs. Or even not-so-crazy AUs!
WHAT TO DO:
1) Leave a comment with a prompt for an AU. It could be as crazy as 'Jensen is a tree, Jared is the cat who likes to climb him' or as non-crazy as 'Jensen works in a porn shop, Jared keeps coming in to buy vibrators'.
2) Read through other comments and if there is a prompt which makes you go 'ooh!' then reply to it in the form of a short fic.
3) There is no limit to how many people can write for a single prompt.
4) Read what other people have come up with, and tell them how awesome they are.
5) PIMP!
6) HAVE FUN!
WHAT NOT TO DO:
1) Be a dick.
QUESTIONS:
Q) Oooh, I like this prompt - can I write an entire long fic out of it, not just a comment fic?
A) SURE! If you see a prompt which gets your creative juices going, write it out and post it to your journal.
Q) Can I use a pairing other than the one the prompt specifies? EG: Chris Pine/Zachary Quinto instead of Jared/Jensen?
A) It's probably best not to write a reply using characters other than the ones specified in the original comment. But there's nothing stopping you from taking a prompt, writing it with whichever characters you like and posting it at your own journal.
Q) Can I give a prompt using non-J2 characters? EG: Chris/Steve, Chad/Misha etc?
A) Sure! But try to keep them in the CWRPS universe.

So I was all 'not gonna post again today!' because I have been a bit spammy but I HAVE to post this before I go to bed because it's SUPER EXCITING!!! Not long after I posted my Big Bang,
pennyplainknits asked me if she could do an audiofic of it. And of course I said OMFG YES PLEASE because damn, I LOVE audiofic and to have my Big Bang recorded would be AWESOME. And she finished it and just posted it and you can find it HERE. So go download it and tell her how awesome she is for doing that! SHE EVEN DID DALEK VOICES! No one has ever recorded any of my fic before so it fills me with GLEE! And I wish my internet would HURRY THE FUCK UP and finish downloading it so I could listen too...
Coming up tomorrow: the comment fic meme I have been promising for the past age! Here's hoping people take part. Y'ALL HAVE TO TAKE PART or I might cry. *L*

So... where are the SPN/Pushing Daisies crossover fics? :D I mean, come on - we have PIE and RAISING THE DEAD. Add Sam and Dean to that and... oh yes.
*waits for links to magically appear in her inbox* :D
In other news, I have sketched out an outline for my
spn_meanttobe fic. UNFORTUNATELY I have realised that it's... well. Pretty depressing. I must see if I can make it a happier story. I mean, it's going to END happy (duh) but I would prefer it not to be an angst-fest from start to almost-finish!

I am pretty well convinced that there is a G-spot inside the ear, and that is why shoving a cotton bud in there and wiggling it around feels so damned good.
It's also why they say 'don't stick them too far into your ear!' - they don't want people finding out how good it feels.
Yes, I know the real reason. :P

What I had been thinking of doing today:
- Go to mum and dad's and steal their broadband because the dialup speed here is killing me, seriously, it took 10 minutes to load the PATD homepage so I could read the news everyone was talking about.
- Go into town and see a movie (cheap day!) and buy more yarn.
What I will be doing today because I forgot that I had to lend mum the car and therefore don't have any transport, AND don't have any cash for the bus:
- NOTHING. Except finish watching Pushing Daisies and feel bad about not starting work on two stories that are due SOON OMFG. I am relying on my natural propensity to only get writing done when I am busy, and since I am considerably UNbusy right now but will start being busy next week, I'm gonna procrastinate.
Boo-urns.
The news all over the f-list today was that Panic at the Disco have broken up. To everyone who needs a hug: *HUG HUG HUG*

Today, I sat on a piece of chocolate while wearing my expensive pants. I didn't realise it until I got up, by which time it had melted into a giant brown smear on the back of my thigh. It looks about as well as you'd expect. FML.
On the plus side, the pants are black so whatever remains after washing them will hopefully be difficult to see.
And another plus from the evening was managing to get the guy who has a crush on me (I'm starting to feel slightly bad about this whole thing; I just want to be friends with him!) to lend me all his David Eddings books. I sold all mine quite a few years ago when I needed a) money and b) bookshelf space, and also I hadn't read them for AGES. And of course now that he's dead (SOB) I've realised that I really really want to read all his books again. These were the books I read over and over when I was a teenager. I read them until their spines cracked. When all the cool girls were reading Girlfriend magazine and talking about boys, my friends and I were reading David Eddings and crushing on Garion. We were the girls who read them during English class, hiding them behind the book we were supposed to be reading but had finished AGES ago because we actually enjoyed reading and the teacher had to give plenty of time for the reluctant readers to grudgingly make their way through the book. (When I was in school, I used to think that people who didn't like reading or who weren't good at it must be stupid. Wasn't I nice and judgemental?)
I do hope I still enjoy them. It's been many years since I read them. I hope I don't start reading and say 'omg, these suck! how could I have ever loved them? D:' ... I hate when that happens to a cherished childhood memory. :(
(I will probably be incapable of reading them without slash goggles now. I wonder who I will end up secretly shipping?)
Today I wrote a draft post for a Crazy RPS AU Premises Comment Fic Meme. I will most likely post it sometime this coming week. I hope people take part! It has the potential to be awesome. :D
Tonight I was at a roleplaying game and there was some random guy hanging out there. He was 20, and had reportedly slept with 112 girls in under 3 years. He was also a homophobe. My urge to kick him in the balls was strong. Talk about hate at first sight. He was all 'I'm not a slut!' and I asked him how many girls he'd slept with. When he answered, the entire roomful of people chorused "SLUT!" at once.

What should I make for dinner tonight?
What's your favourite, easy recipe? :D Let's share!
Elle's Easy Nachos
1 can chilli beans
1 can tomatoes (any flavour you want; I like pesto-style or mexican spiced)
Corn chips
Cheese
Sour cream
Heat the beans and tomatoes in a pot. Spoon over corn chips. Cover with cheese and put under the grill until the cheese is melted. Top with sour cream. EAT.
OH AND Happy 4th of July, American people. :D I hear you celebrate with fireworks and barbecue? At least that's what Jensen tells me. HAVE FUN!

Watching episode 10 of Dollhouse. I think it's kinda awesome that Topher programmed a doll just to hang out with. XD
I also like how Paul Ballard aka the dude who played Helo on BSG keeps taking his shirt off.
Oh look, there it goes again! Why does he even bother buttoning it? XD (Sam Winchester: take note.)
Tonight I went to a concert that was a) very very long and b) very very boring and c) took place in a church with very uncomfortable pews. I distracted myself by planning a comment fic meme for next week, deciding what to re-tag all my fic entries at my fic comm with (done!
wheeeeefic - now with easier-to-find stories!), and imagining that the conductor was Jared.

More Big Bang recs! I'm still working my way through them - I have fics saved from way back at the start which I haven't even READ yet, although at last count I've actually managed to make my way through almost forty so far. Which is probably pretty good, really. XD
Anyway. Here are seven Big Bang recs. All of them are J2.
( Under the cut because there are a few! )

Ugh, I should probably try using my Dreamwidth at some point.
Yesterday I started making a Jayne Cobb hat, but unfortunately a) my crochet hook is too thin and b) the yarn I bought is too thin. I wanted chunky yarn and a chunky hook but unfortunately could find neither so I was using a thin hook and thin yarn and it's going to take FOREVER and will not look as awesome as it should. SO I started making this hat instead which is FUNKY. Except it uses puff stitches which are a bit of a nightmare. I shall persevere, though! It'll be awesome if I finish it!
My sleep patterns are fucked up. It's a bit annoying. I didn't get to sleep until about 3.30am this morning and I didn't wake up until 11.30am. UGH. I need to start making myself wake up earlier so I can get to sleep earlier. I love a sleep in but I hate it when it becomes less of a 'wake up and lie in bed for a while, reading' and more 'wake up in the AFTERNOON'.
PLANS FOR TODAY:
1) Make another Big Bang rec list. I read the most adorable story last night and I think I might have to read it again a few hundred times.
2) Reply to comments on my Big Bang. Am I allowed to be ridiculously pleased with the number of comments? Cos I AM. It's, like, 2 pages more than my other most popular story. :DDDD
3) Work on my funky hat.
4) Clean up the kitchen.
5) Go to mum and dad's for dinner, then go to a concert with Dad. I'd really rather not but they guilt tripped me into it. *sigh*
Finally, here is a picture of boys in suits. GQMF indeed.

There hasn't been enough JARED on this journal lately!

That's better.

All the spoiler-talk on LJ is making me VERY NERVOUS. I'm checking my f-list with trepidation. I'm pretty sure I don't have anyone friended who casually posts spoilers without cuts or mentions them in tags, but there is always that bit of uncertainty. *twitch* I'm also nervous about modding
spn_castiel, even though we've never had problems with spoilers there in the past, because you never know who will join up just to gleefully post, uncut, a spoiler they just found out! But I can't take it off my watch list because I'm a MOD, dammit. I have to be able to notice posts with issues. D:
Being a spoilerphobe SUCKS sometimes. It feels like the entire world is against us wanting to watch a show WITHOUT knowing what's going to happen in it. It's not THAT much to ask, is it? To, IDK, use an LJ cut or NOT talk about them on Twitter? Are we really being over the top? Should people be allowed to discuss spoilers freely without cutting them, and all the spoilerphobes should just get off the internet if they're going to be such special flowers?
I'm just glad I don't tend to have issues with my friends list. You guys have yet to spoil me. Please keep it up! *chews nails*
