At this point, I would PAY someone to organize these files for me. Imagine the sheer amount of stuff accumulated over the roughly five years I have been saving and hoarding basically every fic I have ever read/wanted to read/saw and thought "hey, maybe I'll be in that fandom someday, and when I am, won't I be pissed if I don't have anything to read ( Read more... )

I am dissatisfied. With the world, apparently. I'm looking at things that excited me yesterday and today all I can muster up is a resounding "eh". Thumbs down, self.

My cat is oddly quiet? Like, he purrs a lot, but he vocalizes less than any other cat I've had. And when he does make noise, it's weird noise. Most frequent vocalization being "ah-AH- ( Read more... )

New-computer enacted a dramatic death scene @ about 4:30 this morning:

Power down! to attract attention.

Loud popping noise! to shock and alarm.

I actually have plans for the weekend. I'll be in Tulsa at Conestoga (the sf convention I went to last year) Saturday & Sunday. I am not psyched to be going alone, but what can you do? I am mostly hoping to get another pair of NERD earrings, since I lost the ones I got last year. Also, there is a panel on "How to Survive a Zombie Attack".
