This hit me after 8.21. Spoilers through everything aired, except I haven't seen the preview for the finale - I suppose it might invalidate something here, but if I were building up to this I wouldn't put it in the trailer.

( what if...? )

I am really excited about my SPN reversebang idea! I have not managed to do anything more than scribble a few pages of rough ideas and world-building type stuff, unfortunately. I love my life and all the stuff in it but holy cow, there is TOO MUCH. A few good things have been happening at work but overall there continues to be a steady increase in ( Read more... )

I've had a few, fortunately relatively short, periods away from LJ in the past. They were all associated with restricted computer access - laptop died, moving/travelling/otherwise lacking Internet-I-could-come-here-with - and even though I missed LJ, there was always a brief but odd reluctance to come back.

Apparently LJ has been under some kind of DDoS? And has been down a lot? I completely failed to notice, that's how busy the last ten days have been. ARGH.

Work is chewing me up. I've gotten home around midnight for the past four days, and a couple of them started at 7 am. Today was a little easier but still busy, and tomorrow promises to be more of the same. And it's not just that it's been busy; it's been busy with tough, technically demanding, emotionally distressing stuff ( Read more... )

I can't write a coda to that, at least not now - I refer you to the incredible Fleshflutter and the legendary Chash, or this wonderful 'Year of the Living Dead'.

But anyone who's seen the ending may understand the impulse that prompted me to go find this haiku I wrote some months ago at spnroundtable, which I'd been meaning to put up here anyway. If not, well ( Read more... )

I think I've set a new personal record by mostly sleeping for the last 36 hours. Everyone else in the family had stomach flu. I didn't have the typical symptoms, just felt half-dead and feverish and strung out on cytokines. Blech ( Read more... )

I just learned that Kage Baker died at the end of January ( Read more... )
