ouchie, the pain...

Further proof that the house I'm living in currently is out to get me...I fell down the front stairs and screwed up my back. Now, this is nowhere near as bad as the fall I took two summers ago in Chiles parking lot where I ended up with two sprained wrists and two sprained ankles, but it's definitely one of the worse falls of my day. And I've had many. I mean, if you look up the word klutz in the dictionary, there is a huge photograph of me.

So yes, in utter and horrendous pain and my doctor can't see me until tomorrow and I really didn't want to go to the Emergency Room, so I'm waiting until tomorrow to see him. In the meantime, I'm just weeping and gripping my back and using a heat pad at work like I'm freaking eighty.

Damn house!

Damn klutzy feet!

Needless to say, I've been far too busy whining and complaining about woe the pain to do any writing. I really need to change that. I'm behind already on the April Fools challenge and that's not how I wanted to start. I've got to write 28K this month. I did it last year, so I know it can be done. I just have to actually sit down and do it.

Anyway, since I'm doing April Fools, I figure, if any of you have any ficlet requests that you want to see, comment and I'll see what I can do. I'm not promising anything definite, but if your prompt strikes me, it will probably get done as I need the word count. Also, for those who didn't get their lyric or valentine's ficlets yet, those will get done this month as well. Figure anything that helps my word count.

[livejournal.com profile] medie and [livejournal.com profile] iamtheenemy: The things I was sending out to you guys went out in the mail this afternoon, so keep a lookout for them.

So Remix authors have been revealed and I'll do another post with my story and such. Once again the stories were all amazing and [livejournal.com profile] musesfool rocks the house for running it so well. The only downside for me? The person I wrote for never sent feedback or mentioned it in her livejournal. Makes me sad. And a bit peeved. But what can you do?

The same thing happened to me two years ago. That's why I haven't participated since. I got an exclusively-slash writer so it was darn difficult to write. But I don't think it was too bad.

Anyway, did you say "ficlet request"? *Pulls out sheet* Well, I do have a few ideas if it'll help with your word count.

1) Wyatt and Dean discuss fighting evil and little brothers who want to be normal. If you feel ambitious, a companion piece with Dean and Chris would be loverly as well.

2) Something Paige or Piper-related. Fighting evil, getting to know each other (canonly or in my AU).

3) Sam being all psychic-like or Dean developing powers.

Hope it helps to spark the muse.:)

Dude, I'm definitely doing the first one for you - for helping me with the layout! Two and three, I will give a try too because you know I love those fandoms. hee.

It's just...even if you don't like it, say "thank you." I received some pieces in the past that weren't exactly something I liked, but I appreciated the effort and made that known to the author. Also, if you don't have time to read it for awhile, at least comment with something like that, "Can't wait to read it when things calm down" so the writer doesn't go into self-loathe mode.

Some people are just mean, I've decided.

Yay! More stories to read.:)

I agree. "Thank you" isn't that difficult to write. I don't understand people who don't have that kind of manners.
