not that I am actually working on my novel or anything
+ Say someone wanted to read some good, in-character Abby/McGee fic. Where would one find something like that? I am not really fussed about subject matter, though shippy and still IC would be a bonus. Theoretically, of course. It's not like I watch the show or anything.
+ The best thing about Matt being kicked off AI is that I don't have to stay up late to vote tonight. Sad but true.
+ I am not a great commenter, I know, so my opinion on commenting really doesn't matter. But the crossposting to Dreamwidth and LJ and then disabling comments on LJ is a real turn-off for me. It's just so...unwelcoming. Also a hassle for lazy people like me who are already signed into LJ at work, but not signed into DW, and don't want to have to go to a whole new site and log in just to post some innocuous comment. I don't know. Dreamwidth comes off as very polarizing and kind of elitist, is I guess what I'm saying, and it's not like fandom needs any help with that. It sucks, though, that I am probably going to lose contact with some cool people from my friends list because of it.
+ Having said that, I am thinking of using my own DW space to annoy the twenty people subscribed to it with original novel word counts. Possibly whining and occasional (rare) substantive posts about the writing process itself as well, but I could just do that here too, so maybe not. I guess I could cross-post fic, but I fail to see the point in that either. I am ambivalent about DW! Hard to tell, I know.
+ The warm oatmeal/Saran wrap treatment works so well on poison ivy itch that I did it before bed last night, then slept through almost the entire night without waking up to reapply Calamine. It was kind of a miracle. The downside is that I actually overslept, so I didn't have time for another oatmeal treatment before work and therefore I'm sort of vaguely itchy this morning in spite of a layer of Calamine. If it gets unbearable I am bailing to go home and cook oatmeal. I have my priorities, and comfort is at the top of the list.
+ Rather than working on my novel I sort of want to work on CM fic. But the next part of the Laying Foundations series is thinky smut, and that's hard to write at work. It's a dilemma.
ETA: Huh. I just discovered, thanks to the magic of Google Docs, that at some point I started a sequel to A Lesser Proof. I got 504 words into it and came to my senses, I guess. Honestly, I can't imagine what I was thinking. Sometimes I think people sneak into my Google Docs and create files just to confuse me. I'm being gaslighted by fan fiction! The fact that I could totally pull off a sequel to that fic does not factor into this discovery at all.
