if you've been longing for 37 random facts about me, this is your entry

[morgenwrites]

So, classes started up again today.  What better way to avoid reading my textbooks than by doing an end of the year survey?  There is no better way.  This is the way, people.  Anyways, I've been longing to steal this from girlinacardigan, and she's being nice and condoning my thievery, so...2008!  And yeah, this is a few days late, but let's just let it slide, k

My year in... a lot of words

[morgenwrites]

Hee. I'm glad you don't want to be extricated from the world of fic. It's a good place. Very warm and snuggly. And full of some very, very good fic. (And some very, very bad fic, but oh well. Some of it is bad enough to be amusing.) Although I was one of those people who spelled names wrong when I first started writing fic. My first multi-chapter Grey's fic, I spelled Cristina with an H the entire time. Oh the shame. And, you know, I hadn't yet learned the difference between then and than, and rereading it now drives me up a freaking wall

{Hmmm...so Hockey Sweater refers to the Renaissance

[morgenwrites]

Oh, rec. That makes a lot more sense than Hockey Sweaters. And it makes me feel a lot less oblivious. Also, I totally didn't know recced was a real word. I thought it was a made up fandom word, but yay. Look at that. The fancy stuff you typed. Yep

Bossy In-Charge Meredith does indeed rock. I think she's up there with 'I'll be here until my sorrows get drunk and go home' Meredith and, of course, High Meredith. But as far as sober Merediths, Bossy Meredith and Meredith of the 'We do NOT have the same dad. My dad disappeared when I was five years old and I never saw him again. Does that sound like the Daddy that you grew up with?' speech. I kind of love it when Meredith's being all, 'I had a horrible sucky childhood and you didn't but look how much I survived'. To people like Lexie, and Derek, and patients, and, well actually, just about anyone would do

[morgenwrites]

Hee. I pretty much like all Merediths. But yes, Mer on Drugs was extra fantastic. And drunk Mer is one of my all time favorites. And also, Mer of the Lexie smackdowns is wonderful. I cannot even begin to describe how much love I have for "Are you an idiot or a stalker?" But that too is one of my favorite things

Ah, well, my 60 chapter baby is actually down to 56 now, as I had to do some rearranging. (Oh, yeah. It's a Grey's fic. What else?) Which means that I now want to procure another 4 chapters from somewhere, mysteriously, because I really adore the idea of it being a nice round number. But because chapter 11 is kicking my ass, I've put it on hiatus and started work on an idea which is pretty stupid and slightly AU and will. not. leave. me. alone. So I have to write it. And it's making me screech things like, "I just had the best idea ever!" (I may rec you - not to be self-centered, I hope - if it turns out I can write it as wonderfully as it sounds in my head) and people around me look at me really weird. (People I know, but nyeh.) I'm going to shut up about my ideas now. (My planning of stories like in highschool and I had to do some creative writing crap, THOSE ones I just tumbled words onto the paper and filled in the planning sheet later. Oops

[morgenwrites]

Hee. I'm guilty of liking nice round numbers for ending fics on as well. I specifically stopped The World Turned Over at 40 because I liked the number. Ahhh... Anyway, yes. Definitely rec me your fic! I absolutely want to read the best idea ever. :D Are you writing the whole thing out before posting it? If you are, I am very impressed by your self-control. I would never be able to manage that. Although it'd do a lot to make my stories better, assuming I could edit them knowing the end and stuff like that. However, I tend to feel to tired and needy and so on after writing a chapter, and have no choice but to post it

As to... ESotSM (thinkin' Esio Trot - Roald Dahl. My mind works in strange ways), it kinda creeped me out. A lot. With all the secret-past-lives-that-you-don't-rememberness. But Clem was really very adorable and issue...d. Issued. So there :P And it's so very sweet with the hiding under the table and running all through his memories and aww. And KW with colory hair is very pretty in a slightly unsettling way. She was also pretty as Rose of the sinking ship, although I did want to shake her a bit. Sad. (A little creepy, too, if I'm being honest

[morgenwrites]

Yeah, Clem definitely rocked the odd hair colors. It definitely was creepy though, especially when Elijah Wood's character was using all the things from the life she didn't remember to make her fall in love with him. Ugh. It makes me shudder thinking about it.

I haven't tried writing two stories with the same characters at the same time. Well, unless a oneshot and a longer fic counts, but I don't think it does. It sounds hard. Also confusing to my already confused mind. So, no strange looks from me.

[anonymous]

That guy makes me shudder. I actually physically shudder. It's bizarre.

I love how the comments and replying comments get smaller and smaller until someone says something about two sentences long and nobody replies. I find those little things interesting. Like when two+ people laugh a lot and then there's usually this little silence and then someone exhales with a hummy noise like they're kinda still laughing. Hee. Have you noticed that? (Yeah, I'm strange. I also just realized that I'm probably not getting an lj because I don't have the time to make it pretty. Strange. Anyway, I totally screwed up the dwindling with this massive paragraph.) ;P

~L

[morgenwrites]

Hee. You did kill the dwindling thing with the long paragraph. Oh well. I have to go to sleep anyway, so I will do the short paragraph! Yay!

Also, you should get an lj! It's really, really addictive and lovely. And there's always time to make it pretty. It's called procrastinating! I do it every day.

Ahhh...now I'm procrastinating on my sleep. Must go do that. :D

[lemonfirefly]

Well, okay, you convinced me. It's very annoyingly plain and my first ever shiny new entry is all about how annoyingly plain it is. And I may also have mentioned Alice in Wonderland.

Can I be your friend? Pretty pretty please? I don't have any and I'm feeling pathetic.

[lemonfirefly]

--and can I steal your survey?

[morgenwrites]

Yay! I knew I could convince you. And of course you can be my friend. Just click add friend, and that should do the trick. I'll even add you first, so no feeling pathetic. :D

Also, go right ahead with the survey. I stole it from someone else anyways.

(Really, I am aware that my previous comment was entirely unnecessary and - as per usual - random. And contains three strange empty lines and a lot of incorrectly matched parentheses. And lots of sentences that make no sense. Probably. And conjunctions and incomplete sentences and suchlike. [Hee. Suchlike. What a fabulous word. It's two words... made into one. There are many others, but I can't think of them at the moment. And I'm babbling. Sorry.] And it sounds like tons of horrible stuff happened to me. Which didn't. Anyway. [Just realized I think I blather in my head and my hands move around and suddenly I'm blathering onscreen. I have to find some way to disconnect the two, huh?]

Um, yeah, so. For some reason I seem to be doing this whole reply in parentheses. Intriguing. Oh, right. How goes the iconing/Lit Toss? Gar. LitTos. There.)
