TW: Abuse

( But since Weeds hasn't done a list yet and I feel the need for one )

I had hoped to polish up and post the next chapter of Because You Left before bed tonight. But after an extremely frustrating last hour at work that culminated in me gashing my chin open and proceeding to bleed and cry (at least I didn't swear) in front of customers, I am far too edgy and rattled to do something that requires at least some level ( Read more... )

So, in celebration of the fact that I've run 117.5 miles so far in the month of March, and to respect the fact that I wouldn't have made it through my last three runs without a heavy dose of Jay, Kanye, and Eminem, I've decided to unlock last year's Epic Running Mix post and make the songs public one more time. This will be up for a week, and then ( Read more... )

Because crowd-sourcing your fic is always a good idea, right?

So I'm working on the Blaine-centric (oh god) follow-up to Need You So Much Closer (that's the depression!fic, for those of you following along at home), and I need to see if the first scene makes any sense at all. So I'm posting it here (and, obviously, at tumblr) so those of you who ( Read more... )

I had forgotten how much fun it is to do a play. I've been doing Dracula with a local theatre group, and while it's about the worst script ever written, it's hard to care about that when we're all running around backstage, doing each others' makeup and singing Disney songs. Incidentally, our Dracula does a mean rendition of "Kiss the Girl." My ( Read more... )

Okay, so here's the thing. The last story I posted, (All the Best Cowboys Have Daddy Issues) is one that I have a lot of feelings about. It is also one that I spent a lot of time with -- I got up every morning for about three weeks and chipped away at it and chipped away at it. So now I find myself in this weird state of mind where it's all done ( Read more... )

So a while back, thepyromanical1 mentioned that she was going to start running more often, and asked for playlist recommendations. I don't usually do full playlists -- mostly I just get a bunch of tunes together and then hit shuffle, but I did have this playlist that I used as my primary get-psyched music for the marathon last year. On listening to it again, I ( Read more... )

This is not an exact quote, but:

"If you had a student come in with diabetes, would you give them insulin or would you tell them that was just how they were born?"

Dear whoever wrote this episode:

Thank you for that.

(Okay, fandom, start freaking out about the preview for next episode now.)

( or it might just be me rambling in a semi-coherent way about how depression really sucks; I'm not sure yet )

I really feel like I should (and hopefully at some point I will) do some kind of post on my mental issues, just kind of taking stock of things and maybe coming clean in a sense (because I've never been very good with admitting to weakness, but I feel like I'm finally coming to terms with some of the shit that used to go on in my head [and, to be ( Read more... )
