☆ Managed to figure out wtf to do for Trick or Treat exchange. Finished two drafts. And then worked on some unrelated stuff. Today was a good day for writing, and I'm happy with it. Struggling a little bit with an unrelated thing I'm working on, but that's all right.

☆ Ended up not cutting off as much hair as I'd originally planned... Maybe when ( Read more... )

☆ I received a last-minute SSSS fic as a Rarepair Exchange treat! *_* Lost Among the Spaces, a lovely Reynir/Onni fic by Elleth. Gooo reeeeaaad iiiit, it's awesome.

Thank you, USA and Colombia, for keeping things interesting enough for ( Read more... )

It's good to be back, but the city is still really quiet, and there aren't very many businesses open. Hopefully that will change soon ( Read more... )

☆ TO TOP EVERYTHING OFF, I've come down with a headcold. Ugh, fml. This is just peachy. And by peachy I mean jfc, why.

✿ Walk off the Earth reaaallly needs to do a release of their cover of "Rude". I've listened to that song about a zillion times, ugh, it's just so good. ....Their other stuff is good too, mind you. Oh man. Getting their latest album (Sing It All Away) was a very good decision ( Read more... )

I can't believe it never occurred to me that I might be able to acquire J-Music on itunes.

Holy crapAnd here I was, lamenting the fact that I can't find my GLAY cds, the ones I begged my parents to buy me from EBay so many years ago, and the fact that the files I ripped from them over a decade ago were never decent quality to begin with, and that ( Read more... )
