Fannish Friday etc.

Feb 23, 2012 20:12

1) I have settled on a tattoo design, but I'm going to wait until I get back from Florida to have it done, because there's going to be a pool and hot tub at the house where we're staying (as well as the pool at my parents' house) and you're not supposed to swim for three months after you get fresh ink. If I get it done right after we get home I'll ( Read more... )

requests, books, tattoos, fannish friday, memes

I forget where you're going to have the tattoo put on your body. It'll look good, wherever it goes!

Good for you for getting your novel underway! I hope it goes smoothly. :)

It's going on the inside of my right forearm. I'll take a picture when it's done.

My novel is going veeeeery slooooowly. It's at about 25,000 words, but I've only written like 200 since January.

So you see the Eiffel Tower every time you look down at yourself! Cool. :)

I find I'm mostly able to write fiction during Nano, but at other times it's too easy to find anything else to do but write. Hope you get a second wind.

Your icon makes me feel funny in my pants. IJS.

I miss you like crazy. I feel crazy with out fandom, which is silly but true.

So cool that you're writing your novel. ♥

And I can't even begin to tell you how stupid it was for me to watch this weeks Glee. Yeah. Stupid stupid stupid.

I stopped following spoilers awhile back so I had no idea what last night's episode was about (no one on my friends list even talks about the show anymore, not that I'm complaining) but I'm glad to have sat it out. I'm sorry you weren't as lucky. I know it really would have affected me so I can imagine how you're feeling in the aftermath.

Oh, god, Liz. Did not even think of that when I caught it this week after some recommendations from friends. *hugs*

I suck at commenting on all my friends' LJs, but that's my craziness/stupidity, and I'm sorry that I haven't commented on yours, because you're my friend and I need you to know that I care about you lots. Hurray for the tattoo, and hurray for the writing on your novel, and hurray for you in all ways!!!

carolinecrane February 24 2012, 21:13:14 UTC

No, you're totally fine. I barely even post anymore anyway. I hope things are going okay for you. <3

I am so far behind in Glee, it's pathetic. I heard this weeks ep is shocking, yet I cannot make myself catch-up to watch ( ... )

carolinecrane February 24 2012, 14:17:38 UTC

Yeah, you know when I say something like, 'oh, if I stop writing fic no one will miss me, there's always something else to read', and people are all, 'no, no, you're wrong!' Uh huh. Not that I blame anyone, because I get that most people are only here for the fic, and that's fine, but there's no reason to pretend otherwise ( ... )

i've, unfortunately, begun writing more fannish things in spite of the fact that i haven't watched since last semester, save for a scene or performance or two (because it's usually amber, and i like watching her sing). i miss your puckurt. i miss you. :[ i miss the old comm. the new one is shitty and i hate everyone and i don't care who knows, honestly.

gosh.

GOSH.

i keep being told to read the hunger games! i might steal them from my friend this weekend so i can binge-read. i wasn't interested until i found out the protagonist is female, which, seeing as i'm all social-justice-y or whatever, is Super Cool to me!

carolinecrane February 24 2012, 21:06:02 UTC

Wait, there's a new comm? What happened to the old one? I probably don't even care.

Hunger Games has the female protagonist going for it, but she's 16 and tbh she grates a little. It might just be me. Also the writing is a bit lazy and exposition-y, which from a writerly standpoint I find irritating. Still, it's a quick read and it's entertaining enough.

I keep getting the urge to write drunken Salfer RPS set during Cory's house party. Then I think of you and stop myself before I embarrass anyone. Mainly myself. I do not know why you're my internal RPS censor, no.

mavilous February 24 2012, 21:48:45 UTC

OH, no. i guess i just meant it's new because all the oldbies are gone and new management and stuff blah blah blah. every time i hear about something particularly shitty happening in canon, i think about how you'd fix it. AWKS REREADING YOUR STUFF NOW LEAVE ME ALONE

see, that's what i'm afraid of going into it, because the concept sounds cool -- seen it before w/e w/e -- and i like dystopic things, but i'm a stickler for voice. plus, i haven't read anything that's fallen under the title of genre fiction in a while

unless you count 'the help', and that falls under the genre of 'offensive'

OMG. OMG. LITERALLY I WAS GOING TO DEMAND YOU WRITE RPS BECAUSE I'VE BEEN HAVING LOTS OF RPS CRAVINGS GOSH!

GOSH!!!

DO IT

WRITE DRUNKEN RPS

YOU HAVE TO YOU CAN'T JUST SAY YOU WANNA AND THEN NOT DO IT, CAROLINE

YOU CAN'T DO THAT

ALSO CAPS AND EXCITEMENT BECAUSE I JUST FINISHED A PAPER AND I HAVE TO PEE the end

carolinecrane February 24 2012, 21:50:36 UTC

I HAVE TO PEE

That's what it's going to say on my tombstone. Fact.
