+ I claimed a prompt for bandomvalentine! At first I was thinking that I'd write a ficlet in a 'verse I've already written in, but I sorta want to write something different. We'll see. I'll probably bug some of you via gmail about it.

+ I signed up for bandombigbang again this year. Hopefully this time I'll actually finish the fic, since the people involved cannot ( Read more... )

music, writing, that's why they pay me the not-so-big $, tv, humor, fandom, iceman wins, bandom, idek, gk

Jiffy Lube Live

Condoms AND lube? In the name of a venue? Why on earth would anyone name ANYthing that?!

Condoms? Is there a brand of them called Jiffy in Oz?

Jiffy Lube is a car-maintenance, gargage-type chain here, and apparently they offered the amount of $$ the pavilion's owners wanted for the naming rights.

*snorfle*

I want to go to a concert there now, just because of the name.

They're a famous brand in the UK, though I'm sure they've been available other places at some point... *digs around* These vending machines have the US cent symbol on them, f'instance... But yes. :)

A'right, I guess my ignorance lies in always bringing my own, and buying the same brand. I had no idea!

My friend seventhpage writes Brad/Nate and is pretty deep in that fandom. Just sayin'.

It's an genderswap prompt, and I'm leaning toward always-a-girl rather than random magical genderswap. Are you sure you want to be bugged? Or, you know, I could bug you with other fic-related things.

Like... after Brendon and Spencer take Bogart to the vet (awkward), they go home, and Brendon stays inside while Spencer goes back out to the deck to finish the weatherproofing. And he's got everything under control until he realizes he's sort of painted/sealed himself into a corner. He works around his feet, stepping carefully, thinking that it's not like it's going to seal THAT fast, but it does, so he ends up having to untie his Nikes and climb off the deck, and go around to the front door to get back inside.

I would still like to be bugged.

Heeeeeeeee. OH SPENCER. I am amazed they have managed not to weatherproof a puppy to the deck. (See, now I also want "how they brought a new home" puppy fic.)

Only the front door is LOCKED, so he has to ring the doorbell, and eventually the door swings open on Brendon, Bogart in his arms, and he looks Spencer up and down, and smirks.

"I'm not interested in whatever you're selling." Which is a total LIE, because Spencer's pretty sure that Brendon had been ready to beg for him before they got interrupted. Spencer's annoyed, because he was sexually frustrated, guilty, and now he's RUINED a pair of perfectly good shoes, so he just crowds into Brendon's space until Brendon backs up and lets him into the house.
