Second! summerpornathon Challenge #6 voting is open!  Anyone can vote, the comments are screened.  The challenge this time was Crossovers/Fusions.

Third!  And this is relevant to my

Comments

PT beat the crap out of me! They suddenly became sadists and torturers today, ugh! I am on the TENS and had to take an extra muscle relaxer and I might just have to break out the extra leads on the damn TENS to get anything written today.

I am just starting my writing day over here. Did about 5k-ish yesterday which was way short of my goal so today I was hoping for better but damn it, they mangled me!

Yay for LM, I tell everyone I know to read that fic, even if they aren't into Merlin cuz it's just that damn good!

BTW, I love your "sucks monkey balls" comment. I frequently use "sucks Bantha balls" but only nerds every get that one ;-)

[loaded_march]

Oh, God. I hope you feel better today!

5K in one day! That fucking rocks!

*HUGS*

(Also, I know what Banthas are, I am totally a nerd!)

[k_nightfox]

Yay for nerds! I wear my nerd on the outside, I'm quite proud of my nerditude.

My shoulder did calm down a bit but it's still tender and I am having to baby it. I'm good though, I lucked out on the PL posting and got a late date. I have the time I need so that I can do all the revisions I want.

Speak of wave dynamics and my brain shudders at the memory of a waves class where the prof ran out of greek letters (and perhaps even subscript letters?!) half way through the course. I have rarely been quite so confused. Neat subtitle-ing idea though. http://blondesearch.ru/img/d8/d83/Merlin_I_am_not_fat_S02E09_Subtitles_.jpg

Aaaanyway, sounds like you had a good day (relatively speaking) so yay! :) Mine was lovely really, but left much to do for tomorrow. Why is it socially required to clean before a party, when you already know that you will have to clean immediately after the party? ;)

[loaded_march]

I learned wave theory in three different classes. It was fun keeping them apart.

Subtitling is awesome :D

*hugs*

And... I have no idea. Guests should come to the party already sloshed so that they don't notice the initial mess!

Hey you, good to see you're feeling better and getting back on the LM horse. :o)

It's not quite 7am, so my day has gone pretty well so far (There Are No Gays in Football updated! \o/). The only way is down, however - I am off to a 2-day off-site with work. At dinner we will talk about trust. Tomorrow is due to end with a 'Commitment Circle'. Words cannot express the scope of the DNW.

The CEO seems to want everyone fairly pissed for dinner. On the one hand, yay booze. On the other hand, I think it means he wants some drunken honesty, which has scope for hilarity, as long as it's not me providing it. Urgh.

[loaded_march]

The LM horse was temperamental. It's on medication now to calm it down *nods*

Sounds like you had a great day! But, yeah, the drunken honesty stuff? That can get painful!

[bookscrazygirl]

Glad to see LM is flowing well again! And you are sure it is 3000, hmm?

How was my day? Look at pic and that is what my manager is driving me too... >_<;; 'nuff said.

[loaded_march]

It's... 3000-ish?

Tell your manager to stop it!

[bookscrazygirl]

Right~ I'll update word count then ^_^

Wish I had the authority. The running joke around my colleagues is that I'm now his personal PA >_<;;. Let me tell you, that is nowhere near my job description when I signed up.

[loaded_march]

Ohh, what am I up to in terms of word count? :D

And if you're the PA, you definitely do have the authority ;)

That's good news! Hope the crowdsourcing happens. I wish so often for subtitles on YouTube and other sources because (although I can hear) especially videos shot at cons etc. with background noise, chatter and bad voice recording are almost incomprehensible (at least for me with English as my first foreign language).

[loaded_march]

Yes! That's another reason I'm pro-subtitles/captioning!
