Lunch time post

This turned into a rather long post so for the sake of my friend's list I put my varying topics under snazzy cut lines.

I walked into a door this morning

This isn’t me trying to explain away any bruises or what not. Though that makes me think of a time in grade school where I had been playing around with my dad and he did that “got your nose thing” (cause he’s a dork. That’s where I get it from!) and he squeezed a little too hard leaving bruises on the side of my nose. I didn’t think anything of it but that Monday when I went I was getting ready for school and noticed the bruises I realized it kind of looked like I had gotten punched in the face and knew I would probably have to tell people what happened. And I remember thinking “If I tell them my dad did this they are going to say he is an abuser.”

Luckily no reacted like that but for a couple of days till the bruises faded away, I was worried.

Anyway back on focus. I did walk into a door this morning. We were supposed to have a unit meeting and I am in a bit of daze. It’s a sort of lazy morning. We had this meeting scheduled so I didn’t want to get anything started and then have to stop for two hours because that would break the flow. So, my mind isn’t exactly with it this morning. With a bottle of water in one hand and a pad and pen in the other, I walked towards the door that leads to the lunch room area so I could loop around to where the conference room is. I reached out to turn the knob, my hand slipped and I know this door is solid and won’t open if the knob isn’t turned but that message didn’t reach my legs in time and I walked into the door. I didn’t hurt myself or anything-though I should have just to punish myself for being a zombie- but for the few seconds that I stood there facing the closed door I felt rather stupid.

And in the end, turns out I didn’t need to get up at all because the meeting was cancelled. I’m not sure if this is a good start to the morning or not. It’s not exactly bad. If anything, it is kind of weird start over all. Maybe it’s a sign it will be a weird day.

I’m really interested in joining this fest that a friend is throwing: hpchallengefest (There’s a pimp for you Sabbie ;) ) I haven’t really done anything that’s fandom besides Role play in a while, even before I joined IWL. And I’m beginning to miss it. I want to write fanfiction again and I want to make graphics again (and when I say graphics I mean like icons and wallpapers that’s the limit of my graphic making abilities.) Rping does take up a lot of time but I’ve recently decided I need personally to be more organized with my role playing. Especially if I continue with having all these threads going at once but with this event I think that it’s been exceptionally hard to keep track of things. And I have a habit of losing tags in the shuffle and I want to fix that.

I just have small hesitations with this fest. 1.) I’ve never been in a fest before. And I don’t know it seems almost like a cheat to join a fest that is suppose to be slightly different then a normal one when I haven’t even been in a normal one. 2.) I have never written HP fan fiction that I have showed other people. Mostly because I really enjoy AU and when I first really getting interested in the HP fandom, AU wasn’t something more people seemed interested in. I mean you have all these Ship wars and people freaking out because god forbid you write a pairing that doesn’t have canon backing. So, I sort of shied away from fanfiction when it came to Harry Potter. 3.) Sabbie might not to it if she doesn’t get enough interest. I really don’t want to raise my hopes and then it not happen. On the plus side to that one though, Sabbie seems to be in on the fest scene so I’m sure if I asked about fest she would direct me on where to go with a very encouraging “DO EET!” Cause she’s nice like that.

So, who knows, I might “DO EET”. I’m leaning towards that anyway. I would like to try something different.

I think once Ides is done at IWL, I think I need to turn over a new RPG leaf. Mostly with organization. I distract very easily. I was once called a: “special kind of absent minded” and I think it would solve a lot of unnecessary drama if I became a little bit more organized and focused. I think I need to start keeping lists. Threads I have going, Plots I want to have going (cause I do tend to forget those too and then remember way too late). Placeholders get filled at a more appropriate time frame. I really want to do this. We will just have to see how it goes I suppose.

fest, rpg: iwl, work
