Feh

My room is cleaner than it's ever been since I moved in. My laundry is done -- all three fucking loads of it. Q Magazine is finally on the stands. But I'm feeling like absolute shite. Woke up at 2:30 AM with a throat so sore I could hardly breathe, let alone swallow. Got up, drank some apple juice, realised was running fever, panicked, took medicine, went back to bed. Woke up again at 6:30 AM feeling slightly better. Can at least breathe properly now. Hopefully, this will remain a throat infection and not develop into bronchitis as I've been fearing. Please, god, please? Just once in my life I would like to have my body obey me properly ...

R. says am jewel b/c bought & made 'real coffee' [as opposed to 'mild' crap] and could he buy me present? If had not been joke, would've begged for The Boots.

This is the part I really hate, when I'm done with the newsletter and I have to shift through all the delivery failures from last time, trying to figure out which are deleted accounts and which are just one-off failures, and unsubbing the deleted accounts. Can't people warn us when they're leaving? Huh? Fuckers.

I have 20 minutes left to finish this before I'm off for lunch with dad. After that, a whole afternoon to goof off on the bro's website, femgeeks, and my site. Yah.

Can actually access my slash lists folder again now. Phew.

M.'s dad think's I'm American. Why? Because I say 'Have a nice day' on the phone. The fuck? American? Well, that's it, no more nice days for people. Hrmpf.

Um ...

This is rather freakish. Steve is ill as well. Same thing: throat-ache, clogged nose, ... Which is freaky b/c this thing is not infectuous! Just my average once-a-year infection. And, hah! he's staying home while I'm at work like a good, tough girl. Am amused. Shouldn't be. Yeah.

[Also, talked to wax_jism on AIM. Rawketh! I have courage!

Dylan rules! He kinda scared me when I saw him in concert, but that's ok. God is allowed to wear a Colonel Sanders tie.

So somebody on the HP4GU list asked bout fanfic, and why we [don't] read/write it. I filed in in the 'to answer if am bored' folder and moved on. Today, I read a reply from this guy that's just completely dissing all fanfic as having 'wrong' charatcer interpretaions and those of us who read it were gonna get a 'tainted' view of the characters that JKR never intended, and it pissed. me. off.

One: A lot of the best fanficcers are on that list. Does this guy assume that when they start writing, their well-backed-up version of the characters is suddenly going to vanish and leave them with nothing but ghosts of 'the real thing'?
Two: He claimed the 'real' characters are stereotypes. Is this guy even reading the same books as the rest of us?
Three: There is no 'real' interpretation of the characters. Nobody's ever gonna really see Harry & Co the way JKR sees them, and that's the beauty of writing.
Four: some of us are quite capable of distinguishing between canon and fanon, y'know.

Bastard.

Also, why are all these people so desperate for comments/feedback on their stories? Why do they want to see the hits on ff.net restored so they can see exactly how many people have [supposedly] read their story? I don't get it. There's a select group of people whose opinion I really want on my stories, because I know they'll have honest, profound things to say, but frankly, I could care less if nobody else'd ever read my fics. Yeah, I still put them out there, and yeah, I do beam whenever people say they like my stuff, but it's not a necessity.

You are not your feedback!

Presenting ...

... my ex-classmates. :D And people wonder why I liked High School.

         

    

Tattoo thoughts

So, the next one is either going to be the wolf paw on my breast, or the one down my left hip&tigh. Am thinking, maybe iron cross? Or iron cross style crucific? You know, with the vertical 'arm' starting on my hip and going down my tigh, and the horizontal 'arm' sort of wrapped ... OKay, never mind, was trying to picture this, and the other arm would be wrapped round my leg. not nice.

I'm actually thinking maybe a cutting or a branding pattern. *looks at pictures* Actually, never mind. I'll go check for Celtic patterns.
