NOBODY IS POSTING (INCLUDING ME)
who actually still visits this site on a regular basis? And what, exactly, is that regular basis? This is just me being curious I'm not going to go anywhere and half of us are also Facebook friends but you know.
ALSO if you are not spending time here, are you spending it on another site, or are you too busy being consumed with ~*~real life~*~?
also I am trying to decide which project I should work on over this whole nine-month deployment thing. I am slowly getting more settled and accepting that This Is My Life ("yeah! I spent the majority of my first year of marriage apart from my husband! so much for 'alone time before having children'" mostly I jest but it is partially true sob) and soonce I beat ME2 and then ME3 and Kaidan comes back and tells me he's sorry and he loves me and I can say IT'S OKAY, I LOVED YOU ALL ALONG much to Quark's disgust as that happens and I get on a schedule (studying Old English? Who has to study for a...language course...sob) I will be WRITING and I have to finish Godbaby fic
(snippet NO STEALING: The pounding grows quieter. I am afraid to look over the wall, and I do not know why. I have only ever spoken to Mother and to the elves. Mother taught me a greeting, but I do not know if the girl—if it is a girl—will understand me. And she is only one person, and Mother told me to find a town. I think that if I wait, she and the animals will go away. I am good at sitting still for hours, at hiding from the sight of those around me. I will wait.
The grass itches at my hands, but I do not move. The smell of the animals is strong and unpleasant, but I do not cough. The sun becomes brighter and brighter in the sky, and sweat drips into my eyes, and I barely blink. I am not here, I think. I think of nothing else.)
but also I want to work on a novel so that WP has something to read that is my fanfiction. Top choices are Goblin Novel (probably he would like it best, but it needs serious serious work because I wrote it during first semester senior year which was INSANE and Pictash spends a lot of time in a library doing research) and 2010 NaNo That Went Nowhere (the two main characters don't have names, also they are basically a younger version of Nevalle and Tanithar) (her name is either Theresa or Tabitha, but Tabitha is too close to Tanithar and I don't like the way Theresa looks, though I like the sound of it) (anyway it's my Generic Fantasy Novel in the same way that the Goblin Novel is my Subversion of the Generic Fantasy Novel). SUGGESTIONS WELCOME.
okay okay time to go eat lunch and borrow Quark's shower and pay my rent and get a library card WOOT.

eta: MY UPSTAIRS NEIGHBOR IS WATCHING SLEEPING BEAUTY is it wrong to want to knock on their door and tell them how cool they are. (Actually I think they have small children, but still. This has made my early afternoon.)

Date: 2012-09-05 03:21 am (UTC)Teresa! I had thought of that, but it still doesn't look like it sounds. I think it's one of those "e"s needing to be...something else. Will meditate on this.
Because my apartment was really quiet and their TV is right overhead. (I can also hear just about every step they take--it's not their fault, the building's oldish, and once I got over feeling like someone was in my apartment it's not that bad.) What was hilarious to me was that what clued me into it was that I heard the owl, in that little "ooo ooo ooo" duet she has with it around "I Wonder." And I was like "that was totally the owl!" And a minute later I heard Aurora singing and I was like HA I CALLED IT.
also I just discovered this song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjhLFM596hk) (I'm head over heels for "I Won't Give Up" and was checking out the rest of the album) and it's adorable, there you go.
LISSA LOU I LOVE YOU. I haven't talked properly to you in ages and I hope life is going well and if you'd rather update me on it in email rather than on a public post that's awesome, but I hope your job isn't bringing you down and that your boy is bringing you up because you are sweet and smart and good and deserve all the nice things. <3

Date: 2012-09-06 03:27 am (UTC)Okay then, what about Turesa Tyresa Toresa Tiresa Terysa Terisa Turisa?
Ahh! (I can see how that'd be very creepy at first, but I'm glad you're getting used to it!) THE OWL I LOVE THE OWL. That is hilarious!
Oooooh I absolutely adore "I Won't Give Up" and now I love this song too! It's crazy you shared it with me because it's so fitting for my life right now. Which I will definitely update you on in an email soon. I LOVE YOU TOO. ♥
