Life in Points

Jan 21, 2007 23:03

Because I've spent the day dividing my attention between catching up on beta-work and watching football, I lack the coherence to string together, like, actual paragraphs....

( Life in Points )

school, football, snow, daily life

Hey, we got (even more) snow today too! I heard the wind start rattling the windows around 1 AM and thought, "Here comes another bout of snow!"

Aww, poor fishie. Your fishtank escapades are almost creepier than the actual Silmarillion! ;P

Fun, calculus! I was just wondering what classes you were taking this semester. Maybe you'll be on YIM occasionally, yeah? *hopes*

Is it really sad that I would sooner read my textbooks rather than HoME??

Fish are definitely creepy little critters. They eat each other alive or nibble fins; they're such pretty little things that it's hard to believe that they can be so mercilessly mean!

I'm glad I'm not a fish. :)

I hope! Once or twice, at least. ;)

Yes! I enjoy the HoMe...but then putting together obscure details into some kind of sense is fun for me. o.O

...you mean humans don't nibble on each other? *grins and ducks*

I hope! Once or twice, at least. ;)

I'll hold you to that, you know! ;)

Ouch. That really lowers my self-esteem. Guess I should shut off the comp then and read The Foundations of Management then. ;P I've never been able to "get into" the HoME. I've tried to get through both I and X, but to no avail. Actually, it's almost exactly like a textbook sometimes. I start reading a bit, then say, "screw it!" Even doing summaries/discussion hasn't gotten me into gear (yet), and BoLT is even sitting on my shelf! *sigh* I don't know what it is about them that bothers me.

I didn't mean to hurt your self-esteem! You don't want to be an OCD nerd like Dawn! Trust me! *looks to Bobby for verification* ;^D

Finrod says that you can nibble on him any time. ;)

I simply can't hold a grudge over something that happened before I was born.

You were born after 1984? ;)

I was also rooting for the Saints and have no idea who I want to win the Super Bowl now (I told Kirsty I was hoping for a tie ;). I can't quite bring myself to root for the Colts even if I think Peyton Manning deserves it and I know it wasn't really the city's fault they stole our team (although it's in poor taste to negotiate such things behind other cities' backs). But as long as there's an Irsay running the show, I put a hon curse on them! *Eyeballs*

Meanwhile, I don't really like the Bears either. They're the favourite team of one of my online friends, but I know if they win then all we'll hear is how great their defense is (meanwhile, the NFL's best defense wasn't even in the Super Bowl).

Ugh. Choices.

My bad. Bad information from untrustworthy source told me that the Colts left in 1980.

I can't bring myself to be angry about something that happened while I quite likely on occasion still pissed my pants.

Oh, wait...guess I can't be angry about what happened this morning then....

...

:^P

I find this a Super Bowl without too much weight for me either. Last year, I was adamantly against the Steelers. I would prefer the Colts because I like Peyton Manning, but if the Bears won, I would not be distraught. Though it does piss me off that the two best AFC teams got eliminated in their first game. Bobby is convinced that New England has a horseshoe up their collective ass. I said, "Now wait, the Colts' logo is a horseshoe...shouldn't it be the other way around?" :^P

Anyway, I'm glad it wasn't New England. Nothing against them, but I'm getting tired of seeing them, to tell the truth.

you know if you ever want some fanfiction critiqued I'd be happy to do so, just let me know. Seeing that I am a rather harsh critic on all things writing I don't tend to leave it unles I am sure someone wants it...

dawn_felagund January 23 2007, 02:33:49 UTC

Thank you! :) At the moment, I am performing "revision triage"; I have too many stories to revise them all, so I have to pick. Which means mostly original fiction is in the queue (except the ne'er-ending monster that is AMC).

But if I ever need fanfic done, you'll be the first to know! :)

(And you're welcome to be honest with me; I appreciate constructive criticism...and do try to use it!)
