This is the live

* Oh Whitney... Another great one gone.

* Joined some thousand others yesterday protesting against ACTA. 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.

♥ So a really, really awesome person added my name to the love meme and other awesome people commented on it. Thank you sooooo much! This made me smile.
I feel so bad for not going through the meme right now and leaving comments left and right, because you all deserve them. I hope you know how much I appreciate the comments and I really want to give them back. But seeing as there are 21 pages and my head as wells as my back are killing me I'll bow out in shame and just keep on telling you guys how cool you are in your LJs... uhm sorry.

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥


♥ I'll go to bed soon, might be back for SPN but I don't know.

♥ One last thing. Have another ( snippet from the J2 / Fast and Furious crossover ) and tell me how that reads please.. Because I keep on writing and I have no idea if that actually sounds alright or not. It's like word vomit on the screen and I like most of it, but can't tell if it reads good or not. So please.. help

♥ Haven't finished writing anything in days. I hope to get some things done this weekend. *headdesk*

♥ I saw this around and thought it was a good idea... proof me wrong if you want.

So since I probably won't be able to send any Christmas cards this year (safe for the special snowflakes that always get one and to who I own packages anyway. :)) I thought I'd offer something else for the holidays.

Leave me prompts for drabbles. Can be Christmas-themed or not I don't care (and I only promise drabbles because I still have so many things to write). Yoiu know my fandoms but you can try and convince me to write something else. I just have to know about it (no promises though, leave an Plan-B prompt, too).

So yes, leave me prompts!!! Or you know, I might even try to draw or make icons. Torture me.

Considering how 'many' of you participated last time I think I won't have much to do... so I'm willing to submit to the torture... ;=)

Also this is purely for procrastination purposes and to distract myself from real life.

I have been working on the outline for the SPN RPS AU crossover fic I was somehow tricked into writing. I have some scenes done already and I don't know if I like the tone of the story so far. I like the plot, I like the idea, I like it all in all but I'm not sure about the voice.

The thing is I have this scene where I keep things vague so not to spoil the surprise but I'm not sure if it's working.

So there goes your mission (if you should accept it), tell me if it's working and if not what I should change. Should I use names right from the beginning or not?

This is the first scene after the Prologue, so everything is still new.

Warning to chani_atreides and morgentau, contains spoiler for fic, but go ahead and yell at me for fucking it all up.. LOL

( Have a 'little' snippet from the SPN RPS (J2) / Fast and Furious crossover fic )

♥ Next part for my 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 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.

♥ Started on my schmoop_bingo card. Finally.
I'm starting with the J2 stories before I go over to the Jared/Alec ones.

Anyway, fic:
"Just one of those stories...“ Part 1 One time at camp, Jared/Jensen, PG, 4.996 words

♥ Two days to go and I'm starting to panic a little, not because of Dublin but because I think I'll never be able to fit everything I want to take with me in a suitcase. A suitcase that isn't supposed to go over the limit of 20kg. Argh. Clothes for three months that are suitable for the office but not too fancy, this is so very hard. I can't decide what to take. *flails a little*

♥ I also have still so many things to do, like write down how to use Skype and so on for my mum and get all the things together that I need and those that have to stay here. Urgh, my time management is seriously off these days. And I'm not sleeping all that well. But I'm not really panicky over Dublin, I'm more excited now.

♥ I got to know where I'll live today. I and one other participant of the course will stay with our mentor in her house. I hope that works out. But she sounded nice when I talk to her on the phone. She will also show us around in Sunday so that we will know how to get to work on Monday. At least one thing less to worry about.

♥ And since I'm bored when I'm not stressed I'm working on icons I actually plan to post somewhere, if I happen to like them.

♥ I managed to save all the BB fics I haven't read yet and let me tell you, it's a lot. Took me two days to get it all down. Well, at least I won't have to take books with me. *lol* That reminds me, that I still have to make a backup of all my data, won't take the mobile harddrive with me.

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 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 )

Happy Birthday evil_witch666!!!!
*huggles*
Have an awesome day!

I am still working on your present, so it will be late.
Sorry.
Time management is not my strength.

***
Hehe, nice way to wake up.
I am only reading reports and watch vids and safe pic.
I am not reading anything else because I am kind of tired of it and I just want to be left alone by other's issues.

Some LA Con observations:
* friends... I love seeing it
* Neither of the boys is wearing any jewellery, safe for Jensen's watch. No rings, no bracelets. That must be a first time.
* such coffee addicts
* Jensen laughing is nice.. really nice...
* matching clothes are nice indeed... but why so baggy? ;)
* *sighs* Okay, so since Misha was so open, it's so clear that they all know about it and we know that they know... I don't know how that makes me feel.

Going back to thesis work now.

Okay, no.. first I have to got some orders out or my mum will kill me.
Yay for saving money and using less energy. It's almost 10€ less per month this year.

I wasn't home all that much yesterday and today. Spent a really nice day with C and J yesterday (tasty pancakes and the usually craziness), which was kind of repeated today only that I visit J at work and handed in another application and met up with C to do some shopping. So I didn't have much time to check LJ repeatedly. I am trying to catch up now.
Shopping was in so far successful that I managed to get a new SD card for my camera for half the money they want on amazon.
I got root beer. I wanted Dr. Pepper and got root beer. Oh well...
I also got a new kind of shampoo which I want to try out since Herbal changed mine too much for it to work for me. So yes, success.

***
I am so not talking about the Qualifying. nothing against Jenson Button. It's cool that he has the pole. The only thing make it better for me though is Sebastian on three.
Oh Kimi. At least Kimi is way, way in front of the McLaren. *snorts*

***
Busy rest of the weekend ahead of me.
I want to be done with the major scenes for my spn_j2_bigbang story.
I kind of have the plan to work on my thesis during the week and to work on fanfic and such things during the weekend. So far it's working out. No idea how long I will be able to stick to it.

Wanted to work on the Sam/Dean piece as well but I am still kind of stuck there.

***
I think I had too many gummi bears.
I feel slightly sick now.

*waits patiently for J2 to have their wrap party tonight and to show up in LA tomorrow*

* 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 incompletework2 wrote for me.
* the tea lizook12 sent me.

***
Two drabbles (or more like ficlets):

J2, PG-13, 766 words.
hd_obsession asked for ( J2, Secret Santa )


J2, PG-13,1.108 words.
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.

It's kind of a tradition now, so I kinda have to say it.
The boys are back in town!!!!

( Here we go again ).

And you know the BuddyTv interview? I haven't giggled so much in ages.
I feel like five and dancing around singing "Jensen has a crush on Jared".
And I didn't even have to make that up, it's all Jared's fault for saying it.
LOL.. Oh how I love those boys.
