Here I Am

I'm attempting to come up with some writing responses for Day 3 of the drabble-a-thon, but currently am quite ecstatic because I think I figured out how to deal with one of the things that bothered me about my apocalyptothon first draft. So I want to fix that up and get it off to beta as soon as possible, while the ideas are still fresh. I was struggling with this one particular element to the story and while I was meditating today it just hit me.

Thank goodness for that as I need time to get it back from beta and I want to post it before I move next week (and ohmygod, I move next week into my own house! Yikes.)

I highly recommend Joel Osteen's weekly podcasts to people, even if you're not Christian. he's everything that religion *should* be, very positive and hopeful, never judgemental or talking about how evil people are. And I don't know if it's just me, but I swear, sometimes, it's like he's talking directly to me. Like his topic will resonate so much and I just walk away from the podcast with a much better perspective on life (and, for me, God).

What do I have to do in order for Annie to leave on All My Children? Just when I think she couldn't annoy me more, she finds new ways to irk me. And I admit, that my great love of Greenlee will always biased me against certain characters, but she's just so irritating. She doesn't have one redeemable trait. How is that even possible?

So I read that Vanessa Marcil is again in talks with GH. And I think that would be awesome, especially if Jagger sticks around because think of the fun that could be had. Or if they pair her up with Jason because they had such potential last time around. And yes, the character of Brenda (like Greenlee) is another one of those characters that I adore beyond reason.

Anything new on One Life to Live worth tuning in? I'm still mad about how they killed off Nash. Nash/Jess and Nash/Tess were the only pairing(s) I enjoyed.

Lots of pimpage!!!

( Onto the pimpage... )

Anyone know where I can find some great Phelps/Lochte icons? I've come across icons of each boy separately, but I'd love a few of them together. Please, help me feed my obsession a bit more.

I ended up signing up for not only the oldschool ficathon run by my wifey, but the smallfandomfest going on as well. But I couldn't resist the prompt of Harry Dresden and Cal Leandros meeting. I'm a sucker for crossovers.

Of course, I'm also a sucker for lazing about and procrastination, so we'll see.

I've been reading a lot of Iron Man, Tony/Pepper fic lately. There's not a whole lot of good stuff out there, but I'm constantly on a search. Soon I might even have some recs.

And this is the problem with my fickle, polyfandom ways. I'm always skipping around so much.

Today I'm having lunch with Amy and Mike. We're having pizza and trying to take our minds off the insanity that is work. Originally my plan was to get some Whole Foods and write, but yeah, today has not been a good day and I need my friends. And if there is one thing Mike comes in handy for, it's making me laugh.

**

I need some David Cook icons. I also need some Shia icons from the new Indiana Jones movie. And I really want Indy & Marion (sp?) and Mudd fic, where they're bickering and taking adventures and just cool stuff.

Dear SPN fanfiction readers:

Everyone needs to go pester Kat (vinylroad) into writing some Dean/Jess pregnant fic of shame. Kat writes an excellent Jess and I, alone, only have so much power over the girl.

And if you're not sure she can do it: check out her latest Dean/Jess, Cherry Pit. Or start with her Sam/Jess/Dean awesomeness, As the Rush Comes.

Love,

Me

P.S. - Or I could just pester her to write more dirty!bad!wrong John-centric fic.

P.S.S. - I do realize, Kat, that I still need to write my Dean/Jess sneaking around on Sam fic of woe. Le sigh.

I really need a Dean/Jess icon since I have a weird love of them. Or better yet, a Sam/Dean/Jess because seriously they would all love one another in such fucked-up ways. Anyone know where I can find one? Anyone willing to make me one?

1) Work was busy today. We're getting a new plotter for better mapping and stuff, but it became a big ordeal with the delivery and oh the fun.

2) Supernatural Crossover Challenge sign-ups are running until June 29th. Write a story, get a story! Fun times to be had! Lots of great crossover fic to be produced.

3) So over at insane journal, ladybug218 started a muse community and with her patience and Yoda-like explanations, I have undertaking writing for Dean Winchester. It's freaking *addictive*, my friends. And it might be Dean's goal to hook up with all the pretty ladies at some point.

4) Yeah, I know I didn't need to take that on what with the billion things to do. I came up with the title for my schmoopfest Sam/Dean story though, so that should let me off the hook. Now I just have to write it.

5) I just finished Secrets of My Hollywood Life by Jen Calonita and now I want the sequel, but my library doesn't have it. ::cries:: The first book was an enjoyable quick read. I've never outgrown my love of young adult books.

6) No, really, my friends, go sign up for the Supernatural Crossover Challenge. Or pimp it. Or if that's not your cup of tea, check out schmoopfest - there are still plenty of prompts available.

7) Does one know if there are Prince Harry and Prince William icons? And if so, where can they be found? I watched their Dateline interview and I may love them more than I used to. And I already loved them a great deal. According to larah33, I love lots of boys though, so this is nothing new.

8) I'm starting to get excited about winchestercon! This is totally my first con ever and I'm doing it with my other half, iamtheenemy. And I'm looking forward to getting to meet some of y'all a whole lot!

I should be cleaning and trying to get organized, but instead...more from that last meme

Interests

Earth 2: It's a sci-fi show from the early nineties that I loved a whole lot. It finally came out on dvd a few years ago (thank the lord) and it's about a bunch of people who are trying to colonize a new earth. I love the Danizger family especially!

Idina Menzel: I just love her a whole lot. She has the most awesome voice in the world.

The 4400: It's a USA show that airs in the summers and it's so awesome. The first season was so bad it was great, but it's actually gotten really interesting over the course of the second & third seasons. Plus, Shawn is hot.

Icons



I saw this icon and I had to have it. I am the dastardly spoon to iamentheos's evil weeble. I'm not sure I could explain it, but it just fits my mood sometimes.



It's John Crichton from Farscape, possibly the perfect man in the universe. He is a good boy and that's really what I love about his character. That he wants to be good - he just doesn't always know how to do that. If Aeryn couldn't kick my ass, I'd totally throw myself at him.



It's an Eddie Izzard quote from Circle. Probably my second favorite of all his comedy shows - Dressed to Kill is my favorite. He's hysterical and awesome and I kinda want to make out with him and/or go shopping with him.

Then from bubbles83

Interests

Jack Davenport: Steve from Coupling, Norrington from PoTC. Need I say more. He is hotness.

Jon Stewart: I'm giving away my age, I know, but I've loved him since his MTV show way back. He's sarcastic and hysterical and a jersey boy! Home state representing! And really, Daily Show is one of the best things ever.

Sarkney: Syd/Sark pairing from Alias. It's just hot. They would be so damn hot together. It doesn't have to be long term or schmoopy (though I like that too). It just needs to be hot and bad. And really, Sark is so much better than Vaughn.

Icons



Will from season three of Alias with him and Syd being rockers. Just so wonderful. God, I love Will.



A girl has to get her need for the brothers Winchester hugging somehow, right? And that scene in Tall Tales was just hysterical and awesome. I love Sam and Dean.



See above.

It would be really cool if livejournal gave us the 2000 icon spaces that greatestjournal allots for. Mostly because I rarely use my greatest journal and no one else really uses theirs either...so all those icon slots go to waste.

And I don't even need 2000...but I just imagine having even more Sam & Dean pretty mixed with some other pretty. Oh the fun.

So my co-worker and I have decided to run for President & VP of the United States. We were coming up with some crazy ideas for our platform and by the end, aside from laughing a lot we were actually a bit scared that some people would probably vote for us based on said insane platform (like invading Canada to make it a wildlife reserve - it was a joke to us, but who knows with some people???)

And that pretty much sums up my day thus far. Insanity and giggles.

GIP - look at the pretty icon that was made for me. Doesn't it rock? Oh Ben. I still love him so much. He's just smart and funny and politically-minded. Now if only he could remember how to make movies that don't suck. That would be wonderful.

Anyone on the friends list follow Last Comic Standing? Why is it that every single year on this show half the people chosen for the house aren't funny? Not at all. Like David Benson (Probably known best for commentary on Best Week Ever) didn't make it in the top twelve? How is that POSSIBLE? But then a few unfunny people did...

And I realize it's because they want a certain dynamic for the house to make it interesting, but I really want to laugh.

Hopefully this season will follow the route of season 2 (and even 3 - the all star challenge) where good people won rather than season 1 (I still want to know how anyone could choose Dat Phan...HOW?)

I really need to stop getting sucked into these damn shows. They never turn out the way I want and then I ponder how I am so off the mark with the rest of America. But I keep going back for more.

I'm going to attempt to start the ABC drabbles today/tonight. I have to work late to try and finish up this one project, but after that, I might write...or veg out with more Entourage because one can NEVER have enough Entourage. Is it sick that I've seen the first episode of the new season about six times already? I don't even care. I love it.

But for now, it's off to do some work, eat some lunch, and try not to kill our temps.

Ciao.
