11/11
Have you taken a moment to thank a veteran today? I hope you have. For that matter, if you happen to see an member of the armed services, be sure to say hello.
Today being 11/11 also makes me a little bit giddy. It's made me think of 11:11 most of the day, even though I didn't see the clock strike the time. Well, there's always this evening. It's kind of funny, with how we occasionally believe in superstition. Still, I can't help but want to make a wish whenever I see the 11:11. In that same vein, I oftentimes like to point out to my boyfriend whenever we're together and we see the time 12:34. He says it haunts him, sees it nearly daily. I laugh, every time. It's a pretty good routine.
What else, what else? Oh, I've been trying to spend at least a (why do I always want to write an?) hour a day writing my current obsession. That doesn't always work out (like this evening), but it is the general goal. Currently, I'm sitting on 5k words (roughly 13...maybe 14? pages in word) and there's still a long road ahead. I'm tentatively titling it: "The Butterfly Effect", (if that gives you any idea on the premise) even though I know that's not what it's finished title will be. Regardless of whether or not I currently have a finished title. It's the first thing that came to mind when I needed to save the work for the first time, and that's what it's stuck with for the time being. Depending on how this one works out, I may have to write a sequel fic...but that's neither here nor now.
I've found another song that works with the fanmix I've been pondering over.
Alkaline Trio - Over and Out
"Over and Out," she said
From a hospital bed
"For what it's worth,
It doesn't hurt, don't cry."
I'm also a fan of Incubus, and find their Stellar song to be a good fit for Kirk/McCoy. I'm sure you'll understand what I mean.
