Yay. Someone broke into my car last night and took all my shit.

;___;

So great, I was sort of thinking I wanted to skip work today but I wanted to go for a drive. I didn't want to go to the DMV. Or call the cops. Or cancel all my cards. Fuck my fucking fucking life.

Okay, this has nothing to do with anything. And really, I should be so embarrassed because this is going to show off my nerd sooo much. But if at 2:06pm Pacific you heard a very high pitched squee with no source in sight? That was me. What was the cause of my joy?

THIS.

I. AM. SO. HAPPY.

Yes, I geek out over my electronics and god knows I have SLRs, regular digital cameras, and camera phones coming out of my fucking ears but I LOVE MY POLAROIDS. IDGAF if they're old and lo-tech and that makes me weird. I have a bunch and a polaroid mount for my Holga and I’ve been buying film and using them sparingly since Polaroid decided to focus on their digital lines.

Sorry to interrupt your f-lists! Back to you regular scheduled programming.

When your boss says “Hey, do you want to earn some overtime?” the answer is no. Hell to the fuck no. My paycheck was amazing, yes, but this past weekend was the first one this month I hadn’t worked and Friday was the first worknight since August that I came home at 6pm instead of 11:30pm. I shit you not. It's the 21st and I've worked overtime almost every single day this month. I sort of want to curl up and die. And I sure as hell never want to go to law school. I was still on the fence before but oh god does this seal my fate.

Our hearing is on Thursday so I have a few more late late late nights this week but universe-willing we win this judgment and I don’t have to stay late anymore. Fingers crossed please!

I managed to get halfway through my AN tags before I’m about to sit and read 7 of the driest deposition transcripts ON EARTH. I’M SORRY I SUCK. I LOVE YOU ALL!

Still left to do:
- Dragon NPC for the Quinn/Rashel/Daphne team.
- Keller for the Galen/Aidan/Dalis team

I feel like I’m missing something.

Day after a holiday are always hectic so writing this down before I forget.

To Do:
- Dragon (?) NPC for the Quinn/Rashel/Daphne team.
- Winnie, then Keller for the Galen/Aidan/Dalis team
- Thierry for Team Lucas
- Sienna for Thane/Zoe
- Lucy intro
- Beatles Rock Band (!!!!!!!)

Dear, dear, friends. I'm in a good mood. I'm still up to my eyeballs in timesheets (yay end of the month) and still have woes about things. But I am in a good mood. Why? Because I'm in love with the app TWI, Texting While Intoxicated. Just as the title suggests, it's just a series of texts sent while drunk or in the aftermath of being drunk. Unfortunately unlike it's sister app FML, there is no actual website (yet?) so I can't link. But my roommmate was having a bad day so I typed out a few choice ones for her. And in case you were having a bad day, here they are. Enjoy!

( Cut for length and bad words! Tee hee! )

It's Friday! Let's dance!

Edit: OMG I WANT TO GO HOME. THERE IS A COPY OF SNOW LEOPARD WAITING FOR MEEEE. /nerdcorespazz

EditEdit: WOW MY COFFEE IS KICKING HARD TODAY.

I've gotten two, count them, two "In the future..." lectures today.

I'm having a very bad day at work.

I find it very annoying that right when I start doing posts for AN, work decides it’ll give me the same crap schedule I had when AN was in it’s heyday. Yay 13 hour work days? Or not.

._.

Whee! I have returned! Comic Con was... exhausting? Good. Not great, even with the amazing awesome things that did happen. My tenth year going and it's obvious it an entirely different beast now. I don't think I like it, even with the upsides it comes with. ._.

Still in a bit of recovery mode. I finally have no more guests at the house now but work piled up when I left. I should be back in the swing of things tonight? Will be diving headlong into AN stuff this week. Scout's honor.

Head's up my dears! I know I've been MIA lately (my desk assignment this month has been brutal but at least I'm getting some new experience; I'm leveling up!) and I'm just sorry to say that it'll be continuing for another week while I'm getting my nerd on at Comic Con. Fingers crossed that this will jumpstart my comic character muse who has been woefully quiet lately.

Anyways, I won't be around much on aim or gchat or here on IJ, but if you really want to see my shenanigans, fangirlgasms, and drunken meanderings, you can find me on Twitter. I don't think I'd be very interesting, and I'm sure it's just a lot of "omg Twilight panel, I really did need my eardrums ;_;" and "lol lost my friends while I was stalking @FeliciaDay" but who knows.

I'll be back Sunday night. If not, it's because I've been arrested for trying to bag and tag Misha Collins.

When I get back though, I'll be ready to get on that ball for the AN end.

I don't like how the universe keeps tell me to grow a pair and tell people how I really feel about them. Oh cosmic forces, it's just going to result in lots of lost friendships, angry phone calls from relatives, and many tables flipped over in anger.

I also don't like how my happy happy IJ is becoming the place I rant in because too many people have me on LJ and on Twitter and on Facebook and I can't properly vent. Not that I don't love everyone here, but it's supposed to be my place of crazy characters and their insane problems. Not of my constant ulcer courtesy of my sister or my current migraine which I have named after my cousin.

I don't like how I've watched the sun rise two days in a row again. Third time better be a charm. I need sleep for work tomorrow.

You know what I do like? Push. Let me rephrase that. I'm too lazy to change it out of the player, so I keep rewatching Push while I clean. It's not cinematic greatness by any stretch of the imagination, and Dakota Fanning acts circles around everyone in it, but holy crap, Chris Evans, you are disgustingly charming and hot has hell.

- Attacked a piñata with boxing gloves and then a katana
- Drove to Vegas for dinner and then back again, just to prove I would
- Fell down way too much because our living room floor was over-Pledged
- Went to Anime Expo for a day and felt very out of touch
- Saw the Proposal
- Fell in love with Ryan Reynolds, again (damn him)
- Ate my weight in delicious food all weekend

And now we are back at work with a mild headache but a decent amount of free time. Did anyone need me for anything?

Also, Strange Fate finally got a cover and a release date. Am I the only one how hates the covers? I dig the girl they picked for Rashel, but the design of the books themselves look like they got the gothiest free font on dafont and gave it to a 12 year old with Paint Shop Pro 5.

Head's up my loves! I've got visitors in my house for the next month or so so posting outside of work is going to be up in the air while we go do touristy things after work and on the weekends and such.

SO! Posting only at work for the next week. I figure after a week I'll either have figured out a proper balance, or have just given up and just keep telling them "Take yourselves to to the beach, I'm going back to my computer." Either way. I don't anticipate this madness will last longer than week or so.

SO. I promise to get back to my tags ASAP (Sorry sorry sorry!) and then will start demanding silly things like scenes and love.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand we're back. Hour 27 again. Can I beat my past record of 61 hours? WE SHALL SEE.

I think it's now official that it is stress related. I was all ready to go to bed around midnight and by 12:30 I realized that I truly hate my job and around 1am I spent trying to find probable ways of getting my roommate’s photography business off the ground. By 2am came to the conclusion that I'm the weakest link in all my games, 3am reminded me that in the next 3 weeks I’ll have 2 foreign houseguests staying with us, in addition to the three people who pay rent and the two people who like to couch surf. Around 4am, I remembered that my father is being deployed to Kabul on Friday and won’t be back until the new year. 5am greeted me as I dissected how I feel about my family, and by 6am realized that contrary to what my resolutions were, in the past year I've gained more weight than I've lost. By 7am I drove to Starbucks and had a shitload of coffee.

Grr.

PLZ TO BE DISTRACTING ME, YES? Do I owe anyone scenes? Would anyone like scenes? It's a firesale today and I've got scenes if you want em. And yes, Jackie, before you ask, this includes Emmeline (young!Emmeline, old!Emmeline, and ghost!Obi-Wan and ghost!Emmeline).

Thinking Olivia makes me think of Sophia Ellis Bextor, which makes me use her icons, which makes me sing Murder on the Dancefloor and Heartbreak Make Me a Dancer. Everyone who passes me by thinks I'm crazy. Whatever man.

Edit: ON A COMPLETELY RANDOM NOTE, ignoring the fail that the show will be, emphasis on the lulz to be had on Thursday nights before Supernatural next season, the CW is totally getting porny on their Vampire Diaries show, and I kinda approve.

We’re now going through month two of chronic insomnia! You loyal viewers know that any attempts to sleep without aid have miserably failed (although I did finally pass out somewhere around the 60th hour mark, so I guess it was possible to fall asleep) and so I’ve been taking sleeping aids like it’s fucking candy. This past week I’ve been trying a new one that promised that it wouldn’t kick my livers ass nor would it leave me groggy in the morning.

So far I’ve been very groggy. I hope my liver is faring better.

ANYWAY the point of today’s post is to apologize for not being able to play/post at night these days. My old ones I had a good hour and a half before they kicked in so I’d take them at a decent hour, postpostpost and then off to bed. Now I take them and I’m down in 20 minutes. But on the flipside, they work stronger, so I can’t stay up late anymore. Cue sadface. So yes, sorry everyone. Sorry starbuck.

ALSO IN NEWS, while I’m much much much more free to post at work these days, now that I don’t have a shrew of an attorney to work for, I am finding I’m mostly assigned to desk where everyone likes to walk behind me and see my business? What does this mean for you, oh lovely friends? It’s harder for me to tag and such.

SO this my plea/warning that if we need to scene, it’ll be easier for me to use Google Docs these days. Comment wars and banter I don’t mind replying from my email because I can knock out a sentence or emoticon and be done with it but threading/scenes take a little longer so if we need to do it, and unless you can catch me during that one hour where I come home and haven’t taken sleeping aids (let's be honest, and if I’m not playing Rock Band) then GDoc-ing is the best way to go.

I've got a good handful of characters running about my head, a decent range of types and personalities and backgrounds but really these days two are taking up all of my headspace. And of course they have massive amounts of baggage. fml. No wonder I've been such a moody bitch lately.

aka, this post is to apologize for being weird and funky lately.

I'm having a craptastic sort of Monday.

Re: MU

Sooooo I totally dropped the ball, and I had been flipflopping all weekend on what I should do, and despite that I am constantly overwhelmed at how active the game is (certainly never a bad thing but oh, miss a day of posts and suddenly you to skip back twice) I want to give it one more real shot.

Sooooo could someone point me in the best direction of what Tessa should be doing? I shall love you forever, not that I don't already of course. I can even give you my e-first born if you really want.

I know I haven't finished the other promises in the last meme, but how can I resist something so crackstastic?

Give me one of my characters and one of yours, and I'll tell you how they end up together and what their first-born is like, even if they are unqualified to have children. I will totally also give you a PB.

Around the 42 hour mark I finally got sleepy and laid down.

2 hours later I woke up wide awake. That was about 8 hours ago. I have been awake since Thursday. I'm either a champion or a monstrosity. I'm still not sure what yet.

I was in such a good mood. SUCH a good fucking mood. And then the fucking ex blows up my phone with a million text messages whining and cryihng about how sorry he is and blah blah fucking blah. shouldn't have asked you to change. shouldn't have treated you like shit. blah blah blah fucking blah. I should laugh and I should rejoice because I'm awesome and he's not and yadda dadda but all it has done is completely kill my happy buzz. Fuck.

I'm annoyed by the sheer amount of people in my house tonight. The party is for tomorrow and I was hoping to to have a quiet night before hand but alas, no dice. It's not that I don't enjoy everyone's company. I do. But some days I really wish I lived alone.

In retrospect I could have left, but I was offered mimosas. Damn. Can't drive anywhere now.

But hey, at least I did some gardening. We chopped down this ugly tree and pulled out a bush. And the jacuzzi now works. Hooray for having friends training to be electricians. It's been a very productive weekend.

Tags later! And drabbles as well. Maybe tomorrow when the food is marinating. TWO MORE SLOTS ONE MORE SLOT. YOU KNOW YOU WANT THEM IT.
