Hugo

Took DD1 to see Hugo this morning.  It's fantastic.  Asa Butterfield is amazing.  (Although I have one little nitpick and this is not his fault, at all.  He's just a wee bit too old for the part.  Hugo is 12.  Asa Butterfield is 14 1/2.  I could tell that he wasn't twelve.  His hands, FEET, and shoulders were just wrong for a 12 year old.)

In other news, fic is eating my brain. I have been getting some fantastic ideas in the shower. What is wrong with me?
I often have fic ideas under the shower, especially as I'm washing my hair. I just leave a small pad with a pen in the bathroom when I'm in a creative period.

I'll have to find time to go and watch "Hugo" during my vacation. No 3D for me though, as it gives me blinding headaches very quickly.

I figure I get ideas in the shower because I'm completely undistracted in the shower. When I say ideas, I mean, phrases. Not plots. Just a few words strung together. I believe tomorrow's merlinadvent came to me in the shower.

3D can make my vision feel wonky for hours, but Hugo didn't bother me after. It didn't feel completely comfortable during, but it was ok. I'd have preferred flat, but this was all there was. I think DD1 really liked it in 3D although the glasses bothered her. She's never seen a good movie in the theater before *facepalm*.

I also get lines, bits of dialogue, bits of text in the shower!
Plots would be asking too much, I guess ;o)
I write everything down asap because I know that otherwise that fantastic line I thought of while washing my hair will never come back to me as it was first.
I also have those kinds of writing flashes just before falling asleep which means I also have a notepad by my bed.

Shew. Glad to know I'm not alone. I can usually keep the phrase in my head long enough to get to the computer.

The other night I got a fire underneath me and had to finish up my merlinadvent fics, but usually I just try to go to sleep.
