elderly men are not allowed to be bastards

My profile's going through some renovations. I like the colouring -- it's pretty and proper -- but if it starts to burn inattentive retinas eagerly seeking something to read, I might have to change it.

Maybe.

Until then, I really need to fucking crack down on my Big Bang before my head explodes. 20,000 words is no problem. Writing a cohesive story with an actual beginning and an actual end? Aha. Right.

Just got back from a mini-vacation in North Carolina! It was rainy. And cold. But Asheville was pretty awesome and me and Phantom (magical_face) got to see the Biltmore. Which was pretty fucking cool, not gonna lie, save for this one old guy who had a flaming sword up his ass, I swear. There was some Latin etched onto this arch over this giant gaping entrance, and I, being the giant gaping dork I am, whipped out my cellphone to make a note of the words so I could translate them later. This ridiculously scary old man ninja'd his way directly behind my ass, and was all, "No pictures allowed." And me, "Oh, I'm not taking a picture! I'm just writing down the words so I can translate them later." And then a pause, like he was trying to formulate a comeback, before he said, "No cell phone usage. :|"

And then my soul cried.

And then I came about two steps from opening a can of shankabitch on an elderly person.

I still don't know what those words said, dammit.

Alright, alright. Big Bang time. I'm opening up the doc right now.
