*feeble wave* So, not dead yet. Sick with a cold and sunburnt all to hell, making clothes an instrument of torture, but alive. The Cliffnotes of my life are:

1. the phone interview went terribly and I sucked and it was aweful


2. consequently I've been unable to do any more jobhunting, meaning I fail at everything


3. everything is The Avengers and Loki and everything hurts, but it's a better thing than points one and two so yays


4. speaking of which, I wrote fanfic drabble thingies for The Avengers because I had questions and feelings


5. I also finally finished a Supernatural fanvid I started sometime in 2009 \o/


6. I'm also working on putting seschat and my Sherlock headcanon to sickle_stories. Part 1 of 18 is up.


7. so it kinda looks like I'm being productive.

So have some thingies:

Fanfic and Meta: Seschat and Sickle's Holmes Bros Headcanon, Part 1 of 18

Fanfic: In the Mountains There is the Promise
Fandom: The Avengers
Word Count: 1,223
Summary: What happened between Loki's defeat and his and Thor's departure? (i.e. I had a lot of questions)

Fanvid Title: More Than This
Music: "Push" by Moist
Fandom: Supernatural
Summary: You have become your father's gun. A study (of sorts) of John Winchester's effect on the boys and the hunter's life. "Is this what you want / what you need / what you wanted me to be?"


Quote of the Day: greygirlbeast, here

If I have to be someone other than who and what they would have me believe their god made of me (or made me weak enough I might become), if it's all that sick and twisted and sadistic, why would I want to dwell in the house of that lord? Maybe the truest mark of human intellectual evolution is giving our "gods" the middle finger.

So basically this happened and then this and I'm just freaking out because good things are happening at the wrong time.

Not dead, not dead, calm your horses. Some days I don't even remember I have a Livejournal. *sigh* Anyway, nothing new happening. I've sent out a few job applications, haven't heard back from any of them so far but, eh, *fingers crossed* right?

But enough about soul-sucking things. In the list of things that are making me happy I've recenty added Tom Hiddleston (my tumblr tag), because he's a precious ray of sunshine. In the list I have a lot of feels about I've added Loki (my tumblr tag), because of his sibling relationship with Thor, his identity crisis, his "fuck this, I'm going to be evil" snap, and basically all the angst. Shock of shocks, I know. So there's that.

Also I made fanart for Supernatural, The Hunger Games and a Game of Thrones/Thor crossover: ( Read more... )

* Fortysomething

Still looking for a job, when I can pull myself together enough for it, and as for everything else, meh, same old. Mom was gone for a week, which was nice, and I got along a lot better with my dad with her gone. Things are back to the not-so-good now with the folks.

In other news, I now have a Craig Parkinson situation. That's on top of the Andrew Scott and Benedict Cumberbatch one. "Watch ALL their things" is my battle cry.

As for Supernatural, *shakes fist* I'm hanging on out of stubborness, a love for the characters, and the faint hope that certain minor characters will come back or will have their stories resolved, but all I'm getting is pain. Come on, Show.

Oh, and Game of Thrones Season 2 is coming this week. \o/

In other, other news, I made a fanmix for Charlaine Harris' The Harper Connelly Mysteries series:

Also there's some fuckery going on with the internet:

All U.S. Internet Providers will be policing downloads by July 12, 2012

* Richard Siken, "War of the Foxes"

*waves* Still alive and all that. Haven't even tried looking for a job this week, but then I've been attacked by the Dodos of Depression or whatever the hell they are, so I've been pretty much incapable of doing anything much less anything productive. But next week's a new week and all that. Mom's gone to visit my brother for ten days so it's just dad and me, and surprisingly I get along better with him when mom's not around.

In other news, there are strange people in the city. Mainly creepy annoying men. ( Read more... )

In other other news, I've listened to all of Cabin Pressure and it is glorious. Also squeeful over Game of Thrones Season 2 coming next month. Aaaand yep.

The status quo continues to drag, but at least I've finally made a to-do list and actually managed to cross off a few items! Sure, they're items I shouldn't be wasting time on anyway, but hey, at least something got done.

I finally - after some two months - emailed Kevin and Ursula Eat Cheap. The thing is that in Naples I visited the Naples Archaeological Museum, which has a Secret Cabinet, and all I could think of was ursulav's Phalloi art (Adult and NSFW, even if adorable). So I just had to send in some photographs.

Another thing I did was a fanmix:


Back Cover, Track List, and Link

And, as always, fanart:

* ursulav, KUEC (Ep. 11)

*waves* Look! Not dead! I am, however, as dispirited as a virgin drink, mainly because fuck you, job hunting, that's why.

In other news, I've read fanfic! It's been ages! Sherlock fic, at that! I even stayed up until the wee hours, flailing at seschat because of one. These are RemyDico5's Better Than None (♥) and MadLori's Alone on the Water.

And that's about it.

Oh, and my icon - by lienne - is a thing of adorableness ♥

* Richard Siken

So obviously not being successful with the whole "not forgetting livejournal exists" thing but then again, not much to tell. Life continues to trudge along and the highlights are silly fangirling.

Currently I'm all a-squee over Andrew Scott, currently best-known as Sherlock's Jim Moriarty. In fact, jim_in_westwood's fics are the first I've read in ages. (I've been unable to get into the fanfic-reading groove for ages now.) If Andrew is the sort of things that's up your alley, here's some of my tags and posts on tumblr: ( Read more... )

Another thing getting much squee is a series of headcanon thingies I'm doing with seschat for the Holmes brother's relationship, youth, parents, and post-Reichenbach days.

Also Richard Siken's poems are my favourite of all things at the moment. I bought his collection Crush when I was in Chicago and it is beautiful.

And I made fanart, again: ( Read more... )

* Finger Eleven, "Paralyzer"

Good gods, I haven't written here in a long time, and what's worse is that I've had a post and LotD ready - well, constantly being added to - for a week now but just can never seem to get around to doing anything about it besides that. So here, have some post. There's a lot of whining and moping and aaaahing which may explain why I'm not writing much or doing anything at all.

Or you could skip to the photographs, fanart and links. Whatev'.

So, yeah, I'm not dead. Again. ( Read more... )

Quotes of the Day: EM Forster, A Room With a View & John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

There is a certain amount of kindness, just as there is a certain amount of light,' he continued in measured tones. 'We cast a shadow on something wherever we stand, and it is no good moving from place to place to save things; because the shadow always follows. Choose a place where you won't do harm - yes, choose a place where you won't do very much harm, and stand in it for all you are worth, facing the sunshine.

I’m in love with you, and I’m not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. I’m in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we’re all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we’ll ever have, and I’m in love with you.
