this subject is at home in its pajamas, drinking coffee and mocking me

[carolinecrane]

We were supposed to get snow last night. I was secretly hoping for enough accumulation to make them shut down the city so I could spend the day at home in my pajamas, drinking coffee and pretending to write. Of course it didn't snow at all. So instead I'm at work, in my Mickey Mouse t-shirt*, drinking coffee and pretending to write. At least I

Hey I'm at work reading my LJ while my students pretend to do thier work. I'd like to be home in PJ's too. Love you.

[carolinecrane]

PJs! They are my favorite thing right now, sadly.

When school was on break, I litterally had a day where I got up took a shower and put on a clean pair. Best day ever. BTW, I'm looking forward to those AUs:).

[carolinecrane]

I'm looking forward to the AUs too! I just wish someone else would write them ;)

My holiday break was so hectic this year that I didn't get any lounging around days. ::sad face:: But that's life, I suppose.

Man, I'm excited to see the Veritas fic and the Sky High one!

Is there a general consensus that Cal is a virgin that you feel the need to rectify that with a story? I never got that impression, personally.

[carolinecrane]

No, no, not at all. It's just that the first line for this particular fic popped into my head randomly one day, and it was "Calvin Banks is not a virgin." I haven't gotten much further, sadly, but I've never written smut in that fandom, so it's about time. I think the 'theme', if you will, is going to be about how Nikko makes him feel off-kilter so much of the time.

[thewolfmistress]

Hmm, sounds good to me! It'll be good whenever you decide to write it. I haven't written smut in general for so long that I'm itching to do it! Just need to summon up the energy, lol.

You probably could get away with PJ's at work. People (at least here) wear them all the time. The florist working the last wedding I did showed up in Betty Boop flannel pj's. So. There's probably some portion of me still twitching over that one. Micky Mouse sounds pretty vanilla now.

[carolinecrane]

Good LORD. My mom was just going on last week about teenagers who wear PJs on airplanes and how unseemly it is. Which, she's right. They go to the grocery store in flannels and slippers here. Also not acceptable. Mickey Mouse, on the other hand, just makes everyone happy.

Comment Hijacking brought to you by my studnets: When they annouce that there will be Saturday school, the administration has to announce that PJ's aren't allowed. I know that when I'm home I can spend a day in them; but to go out? NEVER!

[carolinecrane]

Those crazy kids. I wouldn't even wear sneakers to school when I was a kid. I guess my mom was pretty strict.

[goddessdster]

I am actually in my PJs as we speak! Don't hate me. I am also working from home, feeling like crap, and wishing I could write.

That's quite a heady list of stories you are working on. I think one of the most freeing revelations I ever had was to realize I don't actually wish to be a "Writer," as in professionally. I like being a professional do-gooder and sticking with fanfiction for my creative outlet. I have many interests. They rarely overlap.

[carolinecrane]

I don't hate you! I'm glad *someone* gets to spend the day in their pajamas, though I am not glad that you are feeling poorly.

See, I have always only ever wanted to be a writer, but when I found fan fiction it derailed my professional aspirations. I let it become a safe place to create and get instant feedback (read: ego stroking) without having to do the work of submitting and dealing with professional rejection. Fan fiction became a crutch for me. So finding a balance between the two has been a real challenge, but honestly that is a pretty short list of WsIP for me. I have really cut back on the fic.

So between this one: the Deadliest AU fic where Avery comes back from fishing and Brett tries to keep his hands to himself, and this one: Let's not even talk about the seminary student AU that lives in my head, my brain just exploded. I can't cope with that level of hot in one post, and that's really weird coming from me.

I have a down-turned mouth too, and have heard the same things said about me. We were meant to be!

[carolinecrane]

Oh, the Deadliest AU is giving me such fits, because I want it to be a slow burn and Brett's all, "Fuck that. I'm not some pussy who's just going to pine for fucking ever, you know." He's being really unreasonable.

The seminary AU I don't know if you would care about, though, because it would be Brotherhood II fic. Or original, I suppose, but that's such a cliche I doubt anyone would care except the tiny hardcore Brotherhood II fans.

Stupid genetics. I wanted the cute mouth!

[duckduck]

Oh, see, you said seminary AU and I thought maybe Spencer was a wanna-be seminarian and Derek was the football coach. Or the lunch lady, really, because Spencer was sort of made to wear robes, now that I think about it. Hmm. I DON'T EVEN WATCH THIS SHOW YET!

Brett, be a pussy, for once in your life, because the anticipation is the best part.

I don't think either me or t got the cute mouth. I'm not sure there was a cute mouth to be had, in our gene pool.

[carolinecrane]

Ha! Lunch lady! That is fucking priceless. The Morgan in my head Does Not Approve.

Brett is going to do what I want him to, because he's not having sex ever again until he learns to cooperate. And it's been a good, long time for him, so he has to be getting desperate. Which, come to think of it, is maybe why he's being so surly.

There are no cute mouths in my gene pool either. It's pretty sad.
