1. Yesterday, I had the telly on whilst tidying up a bit. I didn't really watch, because there's mostly crap on at that time, but suddenly, I heard "5 Colours in her Hair" in the background of some documentary about Germany's teenies and I was all o___O. Have I missed something? Since when does Germany know who McFly are? Anyway, I squeed a little ( Read more... )

I'm impressed even more than I already was with the Carra project.
And you started with asking me if I would find a 100 words fic acceptable, remember? Do you wish now you never asked? ;-)

btw, fagger angst 6 past 1000 words. Looks like it's going to be finished in a day or 2.

*LOL* Oh no, I'm more than grateful! When I offered you that drabble, I was pretty convinced I'd never write a proper fic again - and look what you made me do! :) I can't thank you enough, really! :D *mwah*

Oooh, glad to see you're making progress, too! *rubs hands* Can't wait to read! :D

Sometimes a little nudge in the right direction is enough. It was probably there all the time, that long story that needed to be written.

fagger angst 6 is finished and sent to beta/testreaders. So I guess I have a bit of time to look at my short ficcies.

I really don't know how you do it, but I admire you for knowing exactly how to nudge me. :D Even if you're right and the long story that needed to be written was there all the time, I would NEVER have expected it to be that particular pairing. *LOL* (I'm continuing right now, by the way. Have written about 500 new words today, will send you the update before I go to bed.)

Wheeee! :D How's the PWP coming along? (I hope you're still writing that, I'd LOVE to read it! :D)

If you're still interested in watching the Catalonia/Argentina game I'm downloading it later off mininova.org Not sure I know how to upload so you maybe best downloading it too :P

*hugs* Hope Carra is still being nice to you :P

Yes, of course I'm interested! :D Would you mind sharing the torrent link? *puppy dog eyes*

Carra is being very nice - not quite cooperative yet, but at least vaguely tempted, and totally adorable at that. :D It might sound totally ridiculous, but I'm warming up to him in a way I never thought possible. What writing a character can do sometimes, hm? :D

Ugh, I hate that Eurovision is all political voting. I was rooting for Latvia, though! "With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey!" :D

Yes, that's exactly what happened to me! I was all "yay, 5 colours! omg, wait a sec. ON TV????" :D

Did you manage to headbutt CRon already? XD

I did watch Eurovision in the end - and No Angels were pretty terrible that day. They're usually much better. I've heard the song on the radio and seen the video, and it sounded nothing like the performance on Saturday. Don't know what went wrong with the microphones or the mixing, but it was bad. Still, I don't think they were worse (singing-wise) than (let's say) Azerbaijan, and you know where they landed. Not fair, I think. But thanks for the 2 points. :D

Yeah, of course the singing wasn't that good either, but what I meant was that other performers sang rather badly too but it wasn't that obvious because the background music was louder. I suppose we cannot do well at the ESC no matter what we do. *sigh*

I guess I need to watch that clip... Do you think I need to turn the volume down and just look at the video or is the video version of the song actually bearable?

Wie lang hat denn das Zeit? Ich schreib ja im Moment immer noch an meiner Liverpool-Slash, und du weißt wie gering mein attention span ist... *zur unfertigen Klose/Klasnic schiel* Aber wenn das drei verschiedene Fics sind, könnte ich die zwischendurch machen und dann wieder weiterschreiben, wenn dir das recht ist. :)
