* Oh Whitney... Another great one gone.

* Joined some thousand others yesterday protesting against ACTA. [livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish and me met up to join a protest march. The weather was actually nice enough. The sun came out and the temperatures were bearable. Afterwards we went to a Mexican restaurant and had good food. After that kind of busy day I was so very lazy today. I wanted to clean my place but in the end just watched movies and listened to podfic.

* And I wrote fic. Not a long piece, just a little prompt I promised someone. It's not finished but there's only the ending missing. So I'll need a beta reader soon. Anyone want to read through a schmoppy little, non-AU J2 thingy for me?
It felt so good to write again. So good. Now I just have to save this feeling, this drive over to my Big Bang idea (and the last part of my AU).

* Two weeks until vacation. Plans are not final yet but if it works out it will be very cool.

♥ ... but I'm still feeling a little out of it. I haven't settled in yet, not completely anyway. I mean it's nice to have all my things back but I've realized in Dublin that I don't really need much of them to be happy. That was probably one reason why I had to rearrange my room again. There was too much stuff and I didn't like it. Life is strange at the moment. I sort of happy that I have classes now. It's hard to come out of a regular daily routine and just do nothing again..

♥ But then, I still have so many things to do. Mainly on the writing front. I finally really started to work on my [livejournal.com profile] spn_j2_xmas fic and I like the idea and the way it's going right now. It won't be too long I think.. I don't know. Anyway, I'll need a beta reader after the weekend!! Anybody?? PLEASE???

♥ I'm also working on the drabbles I promised for Christmas. Not sure I'll get them all done before Christmas but I'm trying. Some of them might be a little longer. I'll probably post them unbetaed first and then ask for a beta later.

♥ The J2/FaF story is kicking my but, through coming up with new plots every few minutes. But then I have new inspiration now as well (thanks to the new Fast Five trailer) and it's currently at 13k. I could use it for the xover Big Bang thingy if I should decide to take part in it that is. But I could also try and post the next few parts of my Dark Angle x5!Jared story as a BigBang fic. Decisions, decisions.

♥ Let's not talk about [livejournal.com profile] j2_everafter. I watched the movie. That's it. Draft is due January 10th. *flails*

♥ There is not much to tell otherwise. I'm done with Christmas shopping and I have no idea what I'll get for Christmas this year. My mum is not even hinting and my grandparents keep quiet as well, which is really kind of cool. I'm looking forward to Christmas this year. I wasn't last year. It's nice to be home again and to have such things as the holidays so closely after.

♥ Speaking of Christmas, I got a really cool J2 story already as a present. Check it out. It's great.
The Mint Chocolate Chip Shake Guy by [livejournal.com profile] zuben_eschamali.

Thank yous:
- for the cards to [livejournal.com profile] akintay, [livejournal.com profile] _bettina_ and [livejournal.com profile] lizook12! *hugs*
- for the vgifts to [livejournal.com profile] joans23 and [livejournal.com profile] anisalovesu! *huggles*

Also, hey [livejournal.com profile] elless18, I haven't forgotten about the chocolate, but will only be able to send it in January.. :) I have it already.

♥ On a random note: there are Swimming World Championships going in right now. In Dubai. I haven't seen a single race yet and I fear I won't be able to see one. Well, Aaron pulled out and I have idea why but there are still some guys (and girls) I know and would like to see. There is Nathan and then there is RyRy.. no Phelps though. Sometimes I really miss the sport and being able to watch it. These days I have no time and I actually tend to forget about it. That's not so cool. It makes me nostalgic as well.
Also, I can't believe that Ed Moses is competing again.. in Masters Swimming.. LOL

♥ It's too cold!
the_milky_way: (jared/jensen (love))
♥ This is for [livejournal.com profile] akintay! Birthday present is here (sorry that you have to share it with the comms... :) )*hugs*. Hope you like it.

Fic: "Just one of those stories...“ Part 5 of 5, It's just the way I am, J2, R.

♥ This also means I have a BINGO on my [livejournal.com profile] schmoop_bingo card! YAY. And I got a prompt done for the [livejournal.com profile] notjustroomates November prompt.

***

♥ I think I might be slightly tipsy because of the whiskey but then I think I'm just really tired.

♥ Can't believe how happy I am over a stupid Panda hat. My fashions sense these days either sucks or is adapting to the local customs. I don't know which is worse. But the hat is totally cute.

♥ I feel really random right now. I probably should go to bed and stop drinking tea at 11pm. *headdesk* I don't want to go to work tomorrow. I'd rather hang out with [livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish and discover as of yet unknown to me parts of the city. Meh...
the_milky_way: (sheep (travel))
♥ Comment meme pimping:

THE CLASSIC CANONVERSE J2 COMMENT MEME!

Go and leave prompts or write. It's fun. Made my day a little shorter. :)

♥ Will be away this weekend. Belfast and the Giant's Causeway. I won't take my computer with me. So I'll either see you on Sunday evening or Monday.
Don't do too many exciting things, I'll have to catch up later.

♥ Will go to bed soon since we are leaving around 5.50h to get the bus at 6.45h. And yes, those are am times. But I think I'll get up for SPN anyway, because I really don't want to wait until Sunday evening or even Monday to watch it. And I still have to pack my things for this weekend.

♥ Next part for my [livejournal.com profile] schmoop_bingo card. Used the Wild Card this time.
J2, PG-13, "Just one of those stories...“ Part 2 Back to school?
Features grumpy!Jensen. I have to thank [livejournal.com profile] enablelove for the prompt. :)

I edited that during work, which shows how much I had to do today. Being bored at worked is the worst thing possible. But I guess that will change soon again. I hope so anyway.

♥ Just realized how many shows I'm actually watching again. Man, I can barely get them all or even watch them. I have no time. Since when do I have a life? Or rather, since when is work eating my time like that? Not cool... *pouts*

Also, having about a 1000 TV channels saves me from dling some shows.. really... Saw Bollywood in English, let's say it was interesting, but I liked it.

My latop scared me to death on Thrusday and then on Friday again. It booted, up until the point where it showed the Windows sign, pinged and switched over tot he desktop.. only that it didn't switch but stayed black. There was a mouse pointer, I could move it and all but nothing else showed. Have to restart and do a system recovery. No idea what it was and if it will happen again. Safe mode worked the first time and I could save data and all, just no internet for me.. the second time it only worked for the datas before the recovery. I lost some stories. Anyway, works now and is even faster, I am still suspicious though.

Other things:
-> I am blocked. Like completely blocked. Probably because I lost the rewritten last part of the Dark Angel fic. Haven't written a word since then, not even edited stuff, which I am supposed to do so that I can finally post someone's late birthday present.

-> Did post fic though for the "Wherein verse": "Wherein Jared tries not to be too miserable (and to avoid being kidnapped by Mike... or not)", J2, PG-13

-> switched my Big Bang idea out for another one and I can finally take notes and start planning. I am glad I did it and I think [livejournal.com profile] chani_atreides will like this very much (not so mcuh the fact that she'll have to wait even longer now).

-> Bought a new bed and a new bookshelf (because it was on sale), threw out my old bookshelf and the old bed. I can sleep again, at least for a bit and I am rested now...a bit. So it really was the bed? Am still a little doubtful. Kitty loves the new bed already, it's way lower than my old one and she can just climb on without having to jump.
Spent three days sorting through books, DVDs and other things. I threw away about three sacks full of stuff.

-> to add to my massive amount of books (I had no idea I had *that many*) I ordered five more, so yeah I think my days will be filled with reading and hopefully writing again.

-> Allergies are worse than ever.... I don't know what to do, my eyes are burning and my nose is constantly swollen. I hate it. I feel like shit.

-> When I wasn't building my bed and bookshelf I was going three a "The OC" marathon. Found season 2 to 4 for 10 each, so no 15€ at amazon. Yay me. Too much money anyway but I needed it.

-> Podfics are awesome, especially podfics of fics from yoru fav authors and your fav reader. *nods* It starting to become my late night ritual before bed.

-> Mum should be back tomorrow and I still have some things to do around here. Nothing goes over spending Easter alone and cleaning and watching "The OC". Is it me or does that sound rather pathetic?
Well not really all alon, had my cat and grandparents + visitor came by today, brought lunch and cake and 20€ (I so know what that will be... Summer dress here I come). It was a nice surprise.

-> The boys... oh the boys made me smile this weekend. I am so glad that this con went so well. Just the pictures alone... and yeah... Boys.
Thank you Jensen war making me smile. Thank you Jared for making me snort out loud. Thank you Jim Beaver for being just... you... :=)

I forgot where I got it from but Jensen *sighs* and Jared :D )

I am closer to actually getting all the stories done that I still owe.
Posted two, both J2 and both late Christmas presents. So for anyone interested:
"Lean on me, when you're not strong" (for [livejournal.com profile] enablelove) and "The Discovery of a Sun and Finding it in Graceland" (for [livejournal.com profile] matalinolukaret).

****

Since no one wanted to leave prompts the other day I am trying it again. Just because I have nothing else to do (note the sarcasm?) and because I want to finish my prompt tables. I have realised that having other promtps that go along with the table actually helps a lot with finally writing them (I need six more little ficlets to be done with the Jared table).

Writing Meme:
1) Give me a fandom (or several, if you want a crossover) and a character/pairing.
2) Give me a picture unrelated to the fandom.
3) I'll try to write you a drabble inspired by the picture. (no promises)

Random facts of the day:

* I am sort of caught up in a SPN/Twilight crossover fic and I can't stop reading. Help! Please!!!!!

* I really need new glasses now. Mine have a huge scratch across one of the lenses. I know why I wanted to do that when the special offer was still going, I wonder why I didn't do it in the end. I still have contacts but I'd like to have glasses, too.

* My camera just died and I don't really have the money or the nerve to start looking for a new one. Damn.

* Twitter sometimes really annoys me. I don't even know why.

* My bed is about to collapse. Well, another way to spend money then. *sighs*

* It's really kind of hard to write fic when your cat is sitting in your lap. She won't shut up either. Very distracting.

* I hate that I still don't really know if I can go to London or not. I want to. So bad. I miss London.

* I kind of don't like that fact that most parts of fandom aren't my happy place anymore. I stay away from a lot of things lately. It's sort of hard to connect with some people because I feel the urge to hit them over the head despite the fact that I know thesy can be 'normal' and nice. I sometimes really wonder if it's human to be like this or just plain insanity. And I wondered why I suddenly feel more comfortable with AUs. I feel sad that I sometimes wish it would be over just so that things might stop again, and I don't even know half of it because I only ever stumble over links.

That said, I can't wait for the new SPN episode. I saw one clip and that's the only spoilers I know about any of the new episodes, so I think I might actually enjoy watching things again because I am not spoiled. I think that was a rather good decision on my part, staying away from spoilers.
the_milky_way: (jared/jensen (stare))
* re-watching "A very Supernatural Christmas" and realising all over again that they have "J2" written on their motel door (yes that makes me happy, shut up and yes I know it's not actually it.)
* So Jensen's photo op is sold out.. but I have at least one!!! And now I can decide which else to order instead of contemplating spending all my money on the Jensen ones.
I just have to make sure that my pic will not look like a catastrophy (there would have been one photo only anyway).
* the Jensen Rules for the convention make me giggle.. but damn there go my plans
* the latest CSI episode
* the S/D drabble [livejournal.com profile] incompletework2 wrote for me.
* the tea [livejournal.com profile] lizook12 sent me.

Two drabbles (or more like ficlets):

J2, PG-13, 766 words.
[livejournal.com profile] hd_obsession asked for J2, Secret Santa )


J2, PG-13,1.108 words.
[livejournal.com profile] incompletework2 wanted J2: A mix up with their gifts. )

Not so good thing: flight prices are climbing and I have to figure out how to get to Birmingham the cheapest way. It kind of sucks.
I wish I knew a better way to get flights then to constantly check expedia or sites like it. I don't want to pay impossible amounts of money for the flight.
the_milky_way: (the moment is mine (glory of Aaron))
*glows with glee*

Yesterday in Eindhoven:
Pieter van den Hoogenband then had a farewell party, which featured a laser show and Ian Thorpe showing up as a special guest.


They are still slashy even if they are retired.
Not to mention that Randall almost cracked Aaron's WR at the very same Eindhoven meet.

In other news: I am freezing.

Happy Birthday [livejournal.com profile] chickenfried_jo!!!

Happy Birthday Dolan!

Saying this makes me so incredibly nostalgic and maybe a little melancholic as well.
*sighs*

One fic request done:
Written for the Fall Fandom Free-For-All campaign, for [livejournal.com profile] bellasianna, who wanted Steve/Jensen.

"A moment in Time"
Thank you [livejournal.com profile] blue_ant for the beta.. :)
