| 5:47 pm | If you are fifteen fucking hundred miles away, living in Ohio, and also depressed, lonely as fuck, and convinced that you're never going to get a girlfriend evar, and have been going on about how you're "so sad" that I had to leave? Telling me that you love me and that you think we ought to get married is NOT OKAY. Until last weekend, I hadn't talked to you in ten months! Seriously! GAH. God DAMN. I'm already in romantic limbo; I don't want you adding to it. |

| 11:31 am | Here we go again . . . I don't know if anyone here is a member of ![[info]](http://www.journalfen.net/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small} sf_drama over on LJ (kind of doubt it, actually), but if you are and the in-house wanking is getting you down, I've created a new comm. et_dramera. What sf_drama was intended to be like. |

| 10:59 pm | A). I went to a reading last night, and ran into people I know from class. Who promptly told me that they're really sorry they missed my being workshopped, and could they please get a copy of whatever the Hell I brought in, because they really want to read it. They think, from my comments, that I'm probably worth reading. . . . damn. B). I'm considering submitting to this. I mean. What could it hurt? C). I really hate the fact that most of my friends live in Oregon/Washington. D). I threw up on a train platform . . . Tuesday? Yes. Tuesday. Typical period-y doom. I'm probably going to end up going back on birth control because of it, if only because heeeeey, I don't need that sex drive anyway (not like I'm seeing anyone right now), and it's probably better than puking every time my period comes around. Hm. E). I really need to start writing poetry again. F). Dammit. I really do miss him. :/ |

| 12:52 pm | And for all of my whining, someone on LJ randomly gave me paid time. What. |

| 12:32 am | Huh. I just realized that the comment I left in the last ![[info]](http://www.journalfen.net/img/community.gif){kind=small} fandom_lounge post (about Fables) probably makes me sound like one of the rabidly childfree. Er. No. Not so much. I don't particularly like Fables because I felt the romance between Snow and Bigby was rushed if not forced, and I haven't liked the side arcs about their children. They don't really seem to relate to the overall story, and they don't add much—I felt as though they were catering to fans more than anything else. I'm perfectly fine with children in GNs (I mean, Hell, I loved Blankets), just. Their children seem to be less actual characters and more plot device. |

| 11:31 pm | Not that it really matters, but . . .  Yup. Was at 19056 as of Wednesday; wrote like mad to get to 50K. Made it, with forty words to spare. It's TERRIBLE. But I finished, and that's all that counts. |

| 5:36 pm | Bwuhuh? I had a very "bwuhuh?" moment just now . . . was reading the zee versus zed wank on otf_wank and say someone say that chintimin was "asking for it", quoting what he'd said. . . . chintimin? is my best friend. Zed. I linked him at the zed not zee wank last night and he commented on how "it's zee, dammit!" but didn't mention that he'd commented in the post. Slightly surreal to see his name pop up in the comments, but I think this particular offense is forgivable. I mean, come on. His name really is Zed! |

| 1:23 pm | NaNoWriMo is at 11496. My birthday is in twelve days. I'm going to be twenty-one. |

| 6:52 pm | It's been almost three months, so I guess I ought to say something? Maybe? Maybe. Um. Numbered post, I guess, because I can't seem to organize my thoughts otherwise: 1). I broke up with Brian about midway through July (it was a long time coming, we're still sort-of-talking, since I'm busy with school and hence not around much anymore), and I've been dating. Most of my dates have been pretty Hellish, but hey, they provide entertaining stories. 2). I quit my job at the end of August, right after school started—I couldn't balance school and work, and I was having issues with one of my coworkers. 3). My online friend Zed came down and hung out with me toward the beginning of July; we clicked really well in person, and hanging out with him was a lot of fun. Probably the high point of my summer, actually, as hanging out with him/introducing him to all of the people he'd met via the 'net but not in person was a lot of fun. 4). I read Twilight, and was surprised at how not-bad it was. I didn't like it (I thought the pacing sucked, and yeah, it lacked a lot of plot), but I can see why members of the target audience would like it—if I was fifteen again, it would have been on my "favourite books" list, probably. That's . . . about it? I suppose if you're terribly curious about what my life is like, your best bet is to check out my LJ ( kickthehobbit), otherwise . . . well, yes. I'm going to make chocolate zucchini cake tonight. It's going to be good. P.S.—Just because I haven't been commenting doesn't mean I haven't been reading, etc, etc. Oh, and threegoldfish, I ♥ your fish mugs immensely. I kinda want to buy one, but I can't decide on which. :x |

| 8:59 pm | We recently changed scheduling systems at work. The new schedule, instead of being organized by name, is split into departments, which means that everyone is listed, oh, EVERYWHERE. I'm on two pages; one of my coworkers is on three, and the managers show up in four different places. Brill. Because the names show up every which way, I was a half-hour late to work today. I thought I was scheduled at 9AM—nope, was scheduled at 6. Showed up at six thirty, after my manager called and asked where I was at 6:10. I felt pretty terrible—I hate being late to work—and even worse after I had to leave at 10-ish (nauseated, dry-heaving, manager sent me home). . . . until a few minutes ago, actually. Devin called me to bitch at me. Apparently, he was an hour and fifteen minutes late to work today, because—ta da!—he misread the schedule too. Yay! It's not just me! |

| 9:09 pm | FISH! Devin called me today. His guppies had babies, and he wanted to know if I could take them (his tank is full). I asked how many there were—he said, "Oh, maybe five, tops." All right, I had room in my ten (there's one dwarf platy in there now), I said I would take some of them. Yeah, there were like ten? He sent me home with all of them. The nameless dwarf platy started chasing them immediately; I'm hoping he'll eat most of them, but Jesus. That's a lot of guppies. Part of me is tempted to throw them in my 29 with the barbs (who would probably be very happy to take care of the problem), but, meh. Devin was very firm that I wasn't to let Ted (the big Red Glass in my 29) anywhere near his "children," so. We'll see, I suppose. There's a 20 I can set up if I have to, but I like having just my two small tanks, I don't want a third. |

| 1:40 am | This may just be the best thing ever. (Linked via one of my friends. This apartment contained a scavenger hunt.) |

| 5:25 pm | At work yesterday: Stupid Woman: Where are your chillids? Me: You mean cichlids (pronounced sick-lids)? Stupid Woman: I pronounce it chillids. You say tomato . . . I smiled, nodded, and moved on, whilst adding mentally, "You say chillids, I say, 'You're a fucking idiot.'" For Christ's sake, the only "ch" is in the middle of the word. Pronouncing it differently doesn't make you look zomgspecial, it makes you look like a dumbass. Also, funny: after I made the post about stupid linux users joking about Windows, my laptop died—as in, literally died, and I had to wipe the hard drive and reinstall Windows. Lovely. |

| 11:16 pm | That time again, eh? Well, at least it's not smug Mac users this time. |

| 6:16 pm | Dor re-wrote the Zork article on TV Tropes. (The original article was a one-line joke off, "you are likely to be eaten by a grue.") . . . my boyfriend is awesome. |

| 10:13 am | Happy holidays, everyone. |

| 10:59 pm | I can't decide if this is the best or the worst headline ever. |

| 8:44 pm | I finished NaNoWriMo. I have a little graphic and everything, but I'm feeling lazy and don't want to post it. It's been put on SendSpace here, if you're feeling masochistic and wish to download it. Um . . . aside from that, I have finals in about a week, and I'm looking forward to being done with this semester, because I'm taking Creative Writing next semester, and it will be grand. That's all. |
