Fanfic of a fic written within a far superior fanfic (Angelstuck)
This is Homestuck fanfic, inspired by this magnificent fic by one of my very favorite authors, and this excellent picture.
Asuka, I'm sorry I perpetrated this. (Also, I'm sorry about the tail; I had to. It's in the picture. >_>)

Life Update
I'm healed, regaining my strength and stamina (if slowly) and life is generally awesome. Not likely to start posting any more frequently, but here's one for this year!
I'm also using this as a site for linking a fanfic I just finished to the author who inspired it.
Hoping for more rain for my tomatoes and peppers! -
Happy New Year, Fools!
You guys know that story? The reason we have April Fool's Day is that it used to be the first day of the New Year. Then the calendar switched, but some people refused to change over, keeping April 1st as their New Year, and everyone else called them fools - and I think giving gifts was a New Year's tradition, so people gave the "fools" prank ( Read more... ) -

Getting better
Proof of improvement; I'm annoyed that I can't wash dishes at present, because for a month or so there I could. And it was awesome. Now, even though I'm not back to that level yet, I started laundry today and will finish it tomorrow. Stairs are a thing that can happen now and again ( Read more... ) -
God damn
First post I write this year turns out to be this: Damn, a family breaking apart is messy and loud. It's been happening across the street today, mostly outside, lots of yelling and crying. Both daughters in tears, mother not so good herself, I don't care much about the man at present because he just tried to make his daughter pick between ( Read more... ) -
These shows have no common sense
I know that the most important thing in any given movie or episode is keeping tension high, but sometimes it's just silly. Our spaceship is sitting next to a sun, our shields are down, the outside temperature has risen to where the hull is "critical". . . but there's still plenty of time for explanations from the scientist, and everyone to yell ( Read more... ) -
one small difficulty
Here's the problem: when it does get bad, when I'm tired and my arms ache and my hand aches, like they do right now, I can get a little crazy. Being in pain is like reverting to childhood in that there is only now. I hurt, therefore I have always hurt and I will always hurt. It seems impossible that there could ever be a time when I will be ( Read more... )
