if i hadn't blown the whole thing years ago

Yesterday was my 10 year lj-versary.
devildoll is still laughing at me and my claim that I wouldn't like LJ but would only use it for commenting (and icons). Little did I know, huh?

Thank you to marciaelena, Mousapelli, and Deirdre_c for the adorable blue dragons. ♥

It's also - either today or tomorrow, I'm not exactly sure - 14 years ago that I delurked on alt.tv.homicide. I know it was at the end of February 1998. While that is not as long as some people, I feel like I have been in fandom FOREVER. And I've mostly enjoyed myself a lot. I just kind of can't wrap my head around either of those numbers. 14 years is, like, A WHOLE HIGH SCHOOL FRESHMAN (aka, the majority of tumblr's population. *weeps*) HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?

Anyway. I posted fluffy Clint/Darcy fic for my LJ-versary:

I Give You Love, Baby, Not Romance (at AO3)
Avengers (2012); Darcy/Clint; pg; 2,340 words
Clint thinks he and Darcy are dating; Darcy thinks Clint's just got a bad case of the beer goggles.

This was written yesterday in between bouts of sobbing as I rewatched Return of the King for the first time in, like, five years. I think it's cute, anyway, and that's a title I've wanted to use for a while. Thank you to the lovely people who've commented. I really appreciate it.

Somehow, everything I wrote on Saturday had to be deleted. Every wip I worked on, every new thing I tried to start (I swear,
laurificus, I wrote 300 words of Troy/Abed/Annie that were so terrible they were best consigned to permanent deletion, though I would still like to write that story eventually), all of it was so unrelentingly godawful.

My big excitement for the weekend - other than rewatching LotR - was that this time, I added dried cranberries to my biscotti. Yeah, I'm living the wild life these days, folks.

I did update
unfitforsociety with 38 recs for February 2012:

*8 Captain America movieverse
*7 Avengers movieverse, plus 2 Thor and 1 Avengers/Muppets crossover
*4 DCU
*4 Avatar: The Last Airbender
*4 The Losers
*2 West Wing
*2 Firefly, and 1 each Gilmore Girls, Lilo & Stitch, Push, Sports Night, and White Collar

Read, love, comment. <3

Ugh. Work. I just got hit with the 3 pm doldrums and I want to crawl under my desk and nap. Ah well, only an hour and a half until I can go home.
