Okay, so lots of things have been happening recently, both in RL and online.

1) I've decided to try going poo-free.  I don't know whether the label for it is hilariously funny or slightly disgusting.  In any case, what it means is sham-poo free.  If you take a tablespoon of baking soda and mix it with a cup of water, you can make shampoo-substitute ( Read more... )

So, I probably might maybe post a decent bit today because I'm trying to stay awake while fuzzily tired.  If I can do this, maybe I can actually sleep during the night.  Yesterday I had to wake up to take people to the airport, so then I took two naps, one of which lasted from 6 til 1:30 (yes, in the morning), so now if I can stay up until time to ( Read more... )

So, I've had some vague (and some humorous) rules that I've noticed in fanfiction for a while.  The fanfiction I'm targeting is the variety of RPF (real people fiction) that centers around Korean or Japanese celebrities.

I'm still in the process of trying to verify their actual personalities (to be fair, I'm still trying to figure Nino out and I've been doing that for 2 years and there are 15 ( Read more... )

So, I clearly have some minor issues that aren't big enough to place me in a padded white room, but are definitely a bit over the top.  I don't have a job right now and I'm constantly fighting with myself to keep productively looking (it's just so hard to keep motivated you know?), so my energies are going... elsewhere.  I rambled a lot during this ( Read more... )

a: How's it going?

b: Fine.  How about you?

a: Oh, I'm helping my dad make Thanksgiving dinner.  Right now I'm waiting for green beans to boil.

b: I see.  That sounds nice.

a: I don't actually like the effort involved in cooking much, but since I'm living on my own I'm better at it now and I feel like it's my duty to help out when I visit home.  I ( Read more... )
