I live! Honest!

Haven't been on LJ too terribly much over the last couple of days, except to toss up the daily word count posts over on seasonwrite3 like a good mod. Busy Candy is busy and all that blah-dee-blah-blah, etc. I won't try to cover all the stuff that's happened in the last few days since I updated, but I'll hit the important points...

Sunday night: kaitodoushi and I finally finished Psychonauts. That game is now the standard to which I hold all games in terms of writing and story. It unseated Ace Attorney for the writing award (though I still loves me some gay sarcastic lawyers). I adore that game. She's coming over again tomorrow, and we're determined to beat Portal in one sitting. Wish us luck!

Wednesday night: Wound up going on a late-night ice cream run with kaitodoushi and bishonen_girl. As we were nearing the restaurant, we saw (kid you not) SIX police cruisers with their sirens going, all heading in the same direction on the same road. A little further down, we spotted a police van, and a State Trooper's car. I have no idea what they were going after, but it was kinda cool to see 'em all one right after the other.

Work: Continues to suck.

Fics: Am trying frantically to finish stuff that does not seem to want to be finished. Went ahead and posted my very tiny backlog of stuff over on candyfics. I have my Halloween fic done for spook_me, and that is a Professor Layton fic that will go up near the end of the month. Still plowing through requests as fast as my plunnies will let me. I also have my next three fandoms figured out for 100fandomhell.

Other than that...I'm starting to hate Song of the Wind. I have the fourteenth chapter written and done. The thirteenth chapter, however, does not want to be written. It's this one scene that just can't seem to work right. It's insanely frustrating, to say the least. Honestly, I'm not entirely happy with the whole chapter, but I don't want to rewrite it because I'm not entirely sure how to improve it. So...I'm going with it. Once I finish that last damned scene... *grumble*


And now I'm off to go take a really fast shower and get dressed. I'm giving one of my co-workers a lift home, and then I have to come home and pick up around here a little bit before Kat comes over tomorrow. I also want to try and write at least a little bit. We shall see~

Wow! So much stuff to read ^

[candy--chan.livejournal.com]

Hee! Sorry, I tend to post stuff in batches at times ^^;; Especially on special occasions like holidays and things. Lurker Day usually brings about a big honking post :D

"It's the most wonderful time...."

XDDDD

*SNEEEEEERK* That was hilarious XD Are we adding that to our Great Rachel Moments? I think we might have to. It can go right under the ultimate Rach moment: "There are a lot of inconsistencies in the Bible."

Ahhh...so this was why my email was full of alerts... I should have known...there is only one thing that can contribute so quickly to my inbox: an massive fic-dump!

I live as well. I know sometimes it doesn't seem like but I am still out there...the force is with me, or something.

I need to get some new icons...oh well for now Colbert and his cuteness will work. Done rambling now. *laugh*

I really haven't been posting a great deal of stuff lately. Not since I finished fanfic100. I'M LOST WITHOUT IT! Or something... ^^;;

Glad to see you aliiiiiive! :D I know you're busy and all... *misses lady*

I've still never watched Colbert.

You have spook me done D:

*is made of fail* *writes*

P.S. I love the Layton fic, kawaii :D

[candy--chan.livejournal.com]

I already had the idea in my head. Wrote it...pretty much the day I got my prompts *laugh* Ergo, it did not take long. But the downside is that I'm sort of proud of my fic and I want to post it, but I can't until the twenty-seventh when the list goes up! *flails*

Poetry From a Lurker

[catherinebruce.livejournal.com]

*blinks* You said you like poetry and lurkers and... um... erm... I didn't sleep last night... And I haven't taken any form of poetry class in about ten years :D (sometime freshman year of Highschool, I'm sure...)

If a gal shall lurk through a spiffy page
Only so long that comments stay in cage
Decides to pop in and say random things
Not totally sure what next the word brings
There's really no reason to say stuff now
Really I should take my leave and take bow
But who do I kid, only half past nine
And I've been awake since normal ones dine
I'm too awake to cuddle the pillow
Here's a random line involving willow
Notice all the lines add up to the ten?
Couldn't last as poet, I'd make no yen...
Should I talk about flowers and the stuff?
Or should I admit this is just for fluff?
I had a point, but it's early, you see
So I'll just go reread your stuff and squee :P

...Toldjya I'm rusty at poetry... And um... I like Lurking :D So yay! *goes back to Safety Zone*

Oh my god...I think I might adore you now ♥ That's amazing! :D M'not terribly good at writing rhyming poetry, to be honest. So here! Please accept this internets! \o/

*bow bow* Thank you, thank you! I also take requests for Encouraging The Writing Of Adult-Content Fanfic Poems! (...which was the last one I wrote a few months back for a friend who was stuck XD) Then there's Random Poem of Silly Nonsensicalnesses!

Yay! Internets! :D I must say, as often as I use it, the internets is an awesome thing to win, indeed! *hangs it on the wall next to random Bleach poster*

Glad you enjoyed! :D
