did you hear that suspicious thud?
(If yes, it was probably my head hitting the table as I fall asleep on it again, despite getting a decent amount of sleep and taking my medication, so there's no good reason for me to keep nodding off on the damn table. I also don't think I'm anemic right now, since I've been taking my iron, eating my leafy greens, and apparently desirous of cheeseburgers lately, so there'd be no reason for it.)
So, stuff. Graduation, yay. Excessive amount of writing output, yay. Have, in the past couple months, spread the tumblr virus and gotten (or helped get) three people to make blogs there (Penny, Ann Louise, and Tony). I probably shouldn't feel so excited by that because it's not really an accomplishment … but eh, screw it, I feel accomplished. Should possibly consider the chance that the exhaustion's maybe from me asking too much of myself for the past two weeks (combined with my parents doing that thing they do where they don't understand that I have boundaries and that deliberately pushing them is not okay, since it aggravates my neuroses in uncomfortable, stressful ways and makes living with me that much harder for everybody).
Also, it'd be cool if one of my various doctors would tell me that the massive amounts of blood that got drawn last week yielded some kind of results and what said results were. Just saying, medical professionals. Also, also, my mother is a passive-aggressive bitchsturgeon asswit. But this isn't news.
Due date collection-ness:
June 18th: kurtbigbang check in with a snippet. ... can I finish three 5k fics and a 3.5k fic, get them beta-read, and post them before then? Probably yes.
July 1st: I do not remember if the 20k Glee fic or the 20k SPN fic needs to be done by this point, but one of them needs to be done. deancas_bigbang snippet-posting check-in.
July 15th: spn_gen_bigbang rough draft due; this is when the other 20k fic needs to be done. Knowing me, it'll probably be "Kurt the Vampire Slayer" because somewhere on this hard drive, I already have a vague outline for the 20k Sandover AU Dean/Cas fic, and I know it's in an AIM chat log with Meggles. I just need to find it. And posting day at dc_everafter. July 15th is going to be busy. I shall plan on telling my real life to fuck off for the majority of it.
July 18th: kurtbigbang check in with a different snippet.
August 10th: temporalranger's birthday. ♥ (need to have the fic that I can only really describe as, "It's like The Royal Tenenbaums and Arrested Development with angels, demons, hunters, and porn" done.)
August 15th: deancas_bigbang completed rough draft due; oh yeah, apparently, I'm writing post-s6 dark!kink!fic now instead of hipster!verse. hipster!verse is going to the big_bigbang.
August 27th: kurtbigbang rough draft due.
September 17th: kurtbigbang completed fic due. (About the only thing I'm kind of "meh" on is how I won't be able to post "Gloaming" on bodasdesangre until TBD. Like, I'm down with following the rules because I signed up to follow them and I'm not an asshole, but I don't really understand the mods' logic, so I'm mostly going, "eh, *shrug*" and following the rules instead of, "mods, yes, mods!" and doing so.)
October 14th: big_bigbang rough drafts due. (Check ins: July 15th, August 15th, September 15th.)
November 21st: big_bigbang final drafts due.
