Ugh. So 'The Time Traveler's Wife' was going to cost me like £15 to go and see. And I didn't have that. So I saw 'The Ugly Truth' (very funny.)-- Will see 'Inglourious Basterds' sometime this week, hopefully. And TTTW maybe on the weekend. *Thumbs up*
Working on some fic-related goodness. ^_^ Should be done soon. I don't know, it's kind of finding the time and hoping inspiration strikes at a similar moment. But seriously, my wall is coated in post-its and scraps of paper with odd lines and quotes and such things. Just hoping my muse picks one up, screws it into a ball, and throws it back at me with something new scrawled on it.
(I've realised how strange and schizophrenic I sound when I talk about it. I've realised this, and I embrace it.
Fiction I'm working on, the list:
Cristina/Owen-- Something clicked while I was washing my face literally five minutes ago. I worked out what I've been trying to say. Now I have two versions of a similar scene that I'm going to cut up and stick together with old gum and try and salvage something that resembles dialogue. Fun.
Buffy/Spike-- For the lovely
zombie_boogie, trying to keep it fluff-free and so far succeeding. And I'm sort of leaning on my
prompt_in_a_box for this month to help out. Watching old episodes around season 5 and early 6 for dialogue inspiration.
Simon/Kaylee-- Again, hey there now, Meaghan. ^_^ This is essentially mapped out and just needs filling and some- well, some dialogue and resolution. I have the last line. That's always how I start. Probably says something more about my brainbox than my writing. haha.
River Tam; Jayne Cobb-- Working title "How potential euphemisms can wreck lives."- you'll see when you read the summary. haha. Not necessarily Rayne. Just something that resembles a connection between the two of them; take it as romantic or not. I'm sort of swaying between the two options. I like the idea that they're outsiders, and might take some comfort in that- might find something to hold onto when there doesn't seem like much. But who knows where I'll go with it.
Glee-- It's just something small and inconsequential. But it's fun playing with a new fandom.
Dr. Horrible-- This one is for
radio_silent; I'm still thinking on this one, looking at prompts and re-watching just so I can get it right. But it will be done. Gorram it.
Yes, I now own 'Firefly'. It makes me happy. It also makes me want to say things like 'mite' and 'shiny'.
A little celebratory playlist for my good mood:
Oh, and last of all, I'm back on my diet. Back to losing weight. As EMO as this sounds or whatever, I'm sick of feeling like crap about myself. And not wanting to leave my house and not wanting people to see me. And everything. Yeah, I tie up a lot of myself in my personal appearance. And right now, I'm not happy.
So here is my motivation to do it all over again. And stick to it.
Yay(!) haha.
