Anyone using livejournal messenger? Should I bother? I'm not sure what I think of it. I already have gmail, which I do use, and AIM, which I occasionally use, but I'm not sure if this would be a better way to interact with y'all or not.

Battle of the sinuses round bazillion occurred this week and currently sinuses are kicking butt. I missed two days of work because of it and it annoyed me. I've been taking my vitamins and using my neti-pot to avoid this sort of thing, but it didn't happen. Stupid sinuses. I hate them! I believe it was
phoebesmum who said they were proof that Satan exists and I must agree.

iamtheenemy has once again ruled over me with an iron fist and thrust Greek upon me. I'm now done the first season. In a little over a week, which for me, is amazing, especially with being sick for two days where all I did most of the time was sleep. I love it. It's so not of the caliber I think of when I hear ABC Family programming. I mean, I love ABC Family, but there is a level of cheese I expect that this show does not have. It's actually quite funny and full of pop culture references and endearing. Of course, I love Rusty, the genius, socially awkward one the most. He's so adorable. I just want to keep him in my pocket and look out for him. And Cappie is hot and fun. And the guy who plays Evan reminds me of a not!sarcastic!Logan from VM.

st_genderswap - Star Trek genderswap. Because long ago
medie broke me and I have a great love of genderbenders now.
10.
moviefanfiction - Because I wouldn't be a real pimp daddy of fandom if I didn't continually pimp my own community. All movie fanfiction. No matter what the genre, rating, etc. Just has to be based on a movie.
11.
bookfanfiction - I talked about it and went ahead and created it. Like the above, it will be a place to post fanfiction about any book, etc. If you know an author is opposed to fanfiction, I would uh...advise not to do it.
