Which is a very sophisticated way of introducing the following fangirling.

Fangirling over her, first, because she bought me DVDs of Dead Babies and the BSG miniseries. I enjoyed them both so much it makes me forgive her for making me taste marmite. I didn't even know I could hate some form of food this much. God. *shudders ( Read more... )

So, Janet Frame? Presentation I started last night and woke up early to finish this morning? On the book that's been kicking my ass for the past couple weeks? THE TEACHER LOVED IT. And when I say loved it I mean loved it. 18 or 19, she said, which is so, so, so kickass, oh god. *beams* I wish there was no final exam on it, though. I'm pretty sure I ( Read more... )

Sometimes I have a sudden urge to hug him. Wish I could.Got my requirement for the Tertiary PotC Character Ficathon, I'm going to have to work on this. I want the recipient to ( Read more... )

My Pirates muses are going crazy! Beware! I think it's all the fault of firesignwriter (KJ) and cgwriting (Cinnie)... No, like really. KJ writes the best PotC fiction I've ever read, and I suggest all of you rush and read it now. It's simply amazing. She can make a story about a donkey interesting. I swear.
