Why must work and life be so crazy at the same time that I'm struggling with my writing? I've gone through two drafts of my [livejournal.com profile] bubbleficathon (which was due over a week ago and I'm not usually this late and I feel so bad) and it's utter crap. I refuse to give someone a crappy story, especially a late, crappy story. And I know most of it is probably all my own machinations. I'm overthinking and over-editing until I just want to scream and/or delete what I have.

::deep, calming breathes::

Oh, I shall beat this story into submission with a shot gun of rock salt if I have to.

**

Because of said troubles above, I'm almost positive that I will not be finished a draft in time for SPN Big Bang. Getting pneumonia/work insanity/writing woes just don't aid the telling of a 20,000 word story. That said...I still do want to write the WIANSB episode of SPN from Sam's perspective, so that will get done at some point.

**

Onto good news...I had a follow up appointment with the doctor today and my lungs are finally clear! My pneumonia is gone! I have to wait another few weeks before I'm allowed to exercise and such, but after the relapse and stress of the whole situation, it's nice to know I'm on the road to recovery.

I'm behind on friends list and I apologize, but seriously, no free time at the moment. I'm not ignoring y'all. I'm hoping to spend a chunk of my weekend playing around onlline. I miss fandom fun. ::Huggles y'all:: But for now, I'm sleepy, so I shall go watch the results of AI and then sleep.

I'm extremely tired today. I attempted to go to bed at a reasonable hour, but like most Sunday nights, I couldn't fall asleep and kept tossing and turning. I really hate mornings, especially mornings I have to work.

I think I have figured out what I'm going to do for my Supernatural Big Bang. I started writing a scene of the What Is and Never Should Be from Sam POV piece, so I think I'm going to focus on that. If I find that I'm stuck, by starting early enough I might be able to switch to one of the other ideas. Though really, this is me. And early for deadline and me don't go together too often. People would start to think I'm a pea-pod person.

It's just I really, really want this fic set from before, during, and after that episode from Sam's POV. So I figure I might as well write it. At the very least, I'll enjoy my fic.

This is that writing meme I saw going around the friends list... )

So Torchwood friends: Where is the good schmoop? Specifically, Owen-related schmoop? I'm cool with any pairing if it features Owen. Hee. I don't mind angst, hurt/comfort if it ends happily.

So I have a few different ideas I can persue for [livejournal.com profile] spn_j2_bigbang. I'm hoping to get working on it this weekend. I have a few challenges to work on as well, but I want to at least get a vague idea of what I'm doing and where I'm going...so I come to you, friends list. In the below poll are a few options I've been pondering. Tell me which you like best.

Fill out my poll! )

So I had been thinking about a small support group for friends who are doing Big Bang, a place where we can do chats and encourage each other. I asked the mods of Big Bang and they pointed me in [livejournal.com profile] moveablehistory's direction. And she's letting me help her with [livejournal.com profile] omgspnbigbang for those participating in Supernatural's Big Bang. Yay to a support network! Yay for a place to share things with others in the same boat.

Oh life, why must you be so busy? And by "life" what I really mean is work. Argh. I don't mind covering the other position for the most part, but part of that job is packing for fairs/distributions and god, I hate that. It's so annoying.

**

In other news, I've lost my cotton-picking mind and signed up for [livejournal.com profile] spn_j2_bigbang. I have an idea and I think it will end up being gen, but really, I have to wait and see how Dean and Sam react to that, especially with something of this length. But I think it's time for me to try my hand at a long story again. It used to be all that I wrote and now I tend not to go in that direction. So wish me luck.

**

Also, [livejournal.com profile] winchestercon is coming to Boston! Who's planning to go? I figure I went all the way to Los Angeles last year, I can manage a quick train trip up to Boston. And it was a lot of fun and cool to meet so many wonderful people...so, yeah. Tentatively planning to go!

Not much else to report at the moment. Work has fried my brain so I'm going to wait to do some reviews of television shows. Just know that the Terminator series owns, but I love all the movies (yes, even three, ::hangs head::), so I'm probably a bit biased. And One Tree Hill is back and Nathan with the grunge look is YUMMY (even if he's an ass). So I'm watching tv, just have no brain function after work to do anything about it.
