it's friday! it's friday!

Happy Friday everyone! I'm feeling much better, managed to get my butt to the gym early this morning! And it's almost the weekend again!

( But let's talk about American Idol results... )

I got caught up on Black Donnellys for the week.

( Kevin is trying to vy for top Donnelly brother in my heart... )

While I was sick I watched episodes 2.1 through 2.6 of Supernatural. NOthing like Sam and Dean to make me feel better. I really love this show. I really love Sam and Dean and their relationship. That's all I need to put a smile on my face. Sam and Dean and how much they love each other.

I have changed my layout thanks to iamentheos. She made me an amazing layout/default icon AND sent me the instructions so that I could change it without crying. She's so awesome. And she's already started writing SPN fic. YAY!

So yes, new layout. Feel free to check it out.

And on that note, I shall try to catch up on my friends' list and begin going through the huge backlog of fic I have to read.

Ciao!

let's rock out...

Some fandom-related stuff...

Sometimes it's ok to pimp yourself out. Post a list of your top five fics favorite you've written, regardless of fandom or the reason you love them. This isn't about the BEST things you've written, but what you LOVE most. Then tag five other people to do the same.

1. Scenes from the Passenger Seat - Joan of Arcadia - This will surprise some of you, but I have a hard love of sibling relationships, and this story gave me the chance to explore Joan & Kevin's. And I really love how it turned out.

2. And Then: Long Live the Queen (The Prue Perspective Remix) - Charmed - I thought this story turned out amazingly well, after I freaked out about it for awhile and made some small changes, I realized that it just worked.

3. Devil's Trap Choose Your Own Adventure - Supernatural - I have to say that I really love this story (stories) and enjoy going back to reread different endings from time to time. Much of that is because of iamtheenemy, who not only did her normal kick ass beta job, but went beyond the call of duty and turned this into something really good.

4. Republicans End the World...Accidentally - West Wing - This was written for the zombie ficathon and when I saw my assignment, I had a brief freak-out where I pondered how the hell I was going to do this. And this was just one of those rare writing experiences where I sat down to write and it all came out fairly easily.

5. Three To Six - Ocean's Eleven - I think sometimes my challenge pieces that I freak out about turn out the best. I looked at my request and began to panic, "What do I know about writing in this fandom? Just because I love it doesn't mean anything." Then I watched the movie a few times and I just got this vision of Tess showing up at Rusty's and expecting him to take care of her until Danny was free. I really love the Tess & Rusty relationship I set up in this too, not quite friendship. They're kindred in some ways and yet so very different.
