Been hanging out with Court these past couple of days. <3 Last night, we stayed up looking for good Heroes and Supernatural fic, respectively, and actually SUCCEEDED. WOOO. I've also shown her It's Always Sunny and I am glad to report that she is thoroughly amused. <3 We've also been watching through a bunch of Heroes and Supernatural commentary (mostly Heroes since Supernatural doesn't have as much :( ) and my mom let slip that I've apparently been mentioning Heroes a lot to her. SIGH. GODDAMMIT, COURT, LAUGHING AT ME. ;[

Also, tried out cafepress by ordering a couple of custom bumper stickers and they came and they're BEAUTIFUL! WOO. And... started actually writing vampire!Dean.

AND COURT AND I MADE A MUTUAL AGREEMENT TO START USING TAGS.

Wooo EIGHT HOURS SITTING AROUND LATER and my jury duty is over. Basically just... sat around and was never called BUT IT'S OKAY. IT'S OVER.

Was gonna play Phoenix Wright (THE IRONY) but my DS batteries ran out pretty quick. D: And I was too braindead to write, so instead, I like... outlined the vampire!Dean fic I wanted to do which kinda DEGENERATED INTO TEN SOLID LITTLE-NOTEBOOK PAGES OF DAYDREAM RAMBLING I should write it already SORRY FAM D:

ANNNND yeah. I should nap. Or sleep early. Or SUMTHIN.

GOD DAMMIT.

So I have jury duty today at 7:45 AM downtown, so I decided I'd be up by 6 and be out the door by 6:30 to make sure I got downtown early enough to figure out what the hell I was doing. So I got to sleep around 11:30 PM last night.

...3:30 AM I wake up from HEROES DREAMS GODAMMIT COURT and I CANNOT FALL ASLEEP AGAIN. GRARRGGHH. Around 5 AM I gave up and now I'm just... doing stuff before I get ready. D:

In other news, I've gotten my MOM properly hooked on Supernatural. Since she got back from her trip, she's been all "HEY LET'S WATCH SUPERNATURAL" and "well, your little cousins are coming over, but that means WE CAN'T WATCH SUPERNATURAL" and SO ON AND SO FORTH. I'm really happy she's enthusiastic enough about it to make commentary like--"Sam and those headaches POOR THING" and "DEAN IS SO SWEET TO HIM" and "Sam is SMART."

I've got Maxine hooked too (EVEN THOUGH SHE'S MORE TERRIFIED OF IT EVEN THAN I AM). Hopefully we can get together soon and marathon through another chunk of s2. >:] EEE WINCHESTERS <333

Also, I still want to do an indulgent Dean!vampire fic even if Gordon stole my thunder the other day. D: MORE DETAILS, AT LEAST?

Since a kind, kind Anonymous has gifted me with a paid account, I should make good use of it and do the voice meme everyone and their mother has posted! I realize I vowed to no longer directly support LJ financially, but it'd be in bad taste to not honor someone else's generosity, YEAH? D: In any case, no matter how much I might whine about being a PLEB, you kind, kind, people, don't worry about giving the gift of love paid time. <3 SINCE I TOTALLY APPRECIATE IT AND LOVE YOU FOR IT, DON'T GET ME WRONG <3333 but I feel bad in the end for going back on my word. D:

Voice posts are fun, right? You get to hear funny accents if your friends are from far, far away. All we really want is to hear your voice, we don't care what you're saying. So here's a list of typical meme questions that would otherwise be boring, but when communicated aloud - well, it's entertaining. Answer these questions in your post, and encourage others with voice-posting abilities to do the same.



1) What's your name?
2) How old are you?
3) Where are you from? Are you living there right now?
4) Is it cold where you are?
5) What's the time?
6) What are you wearing?
7) What was the last thing you listened to?
8) What was the last thing you ate?
9) What was the last thing you watched on tv?
10) What's your favorite tv show? Why?
11) Quick! Find a book, or something with text on it! Flip to a random page and read some of it! GO!
12) What was the last movie you saw? How was it?
13) Do YOU think you have an accent? Talk about that.

IT CUT ME OFF LIKE IT DID WITH COURT. ;[ So you guys don't get to hear my accent ramble. Oh, well. ALSO, MY READING WAS ALL MUFFLED, DUNNO WHY. I was muffled in general.

...I feel like my voice is pretty deep for a girl. XD; IONO.

( RP and character dropping contemplation/ramble. )

In other news, yeah, Court got me into NATHAN Heroes bad, though I also blame that crossover dream and those other THREE NATHAN-RELATED DREAMS how embarrassing /)_(\ I had for getting me all STOKED FOR WRITING IT, whereas before I was a totally casual fan. BUT I AM STILL LOYAL TO WINCHESTERS for they are beautiful IN MANY WAYS annnnnnd right now I really need to work on my AU fic (6000+ WORDS, BITCHES) but I'm also so, so tempted to start working on an indulgent Vampire!Dean fic I wanna do, since I've been looking for fics of that persuasion and I'll I've found is over-the-top/unrealistic Wincest for it. D:

ANYWAY. Man. New fandoms, and WHY AM I ALL HOMING IN ON BROTHERLY BROTHERS ALL OF A SUDDEN? Usually I'm shipping the HELL out of series and right now I'm... NOT SHIPPING ANYTHING AT ALL? I'm kinda glad, though, since I already feel bad for leaving the fandom of my most cherished OTP of all the ages, and this way HUGHES AND ROY HAVE NO ROMANTIC COMPETITION IN MY HEART <3

Also, I feel kind of lame that I'm getting into these shows so late in the game, feel kind of POSER-ISH? I dunno. BUT I LOVE THEM, REALLY, I DO. Man, Supernatural my next fandom. TOTALLY DID NOT SEE THAT COMING. Also, I still need to make a big entry of my in-depth... er... SELF-REFLECTION of how I got into the two shows and what I love about them.

....I think way too hard about these things. ANYWAY. Uh. It's weird to be into a live-action series. WEIRD BUT COOL. (I feel all awkward looking at pictures of the actors out of character. I DUNNO.)

My Firefox is being really weird--not loading random images and making pages weirdly formatted and stuff. DUNNO WHY, though I'm certainly saddened that with only 6 icons and two new fandoms in my life, I keep on having to delete older ones and rotating in progressively newer ones. ;_; I FEEL LIKE A TRAITOR.

In other news, I'm all caught up with Heroes and I've got Court caught up to the end of S2 of Supernatural. WOOO.

"WHAT?" Some of you may ask. "YOU AND COURT ARE INTO DIFFERENT SHOWS? HOW CAN THIS BE?!"

Shocking, I know, but don't worry; we're still managing to have matching layouts and we're currently co-planning a Heroes/Supernatural crossover of EPIC proportions to right this horrible imbalance in the universe. IN FACT, it's actually made us excited for the upcoming hiatus of both shows, since it'll give us a chance to take all the info we have and turn it into a decently meshed plot. SO EVERYONE WINS.

On the fourth case of PW3. Omg... young... EVERYONE! (ALSO, I HAD TO DELETE TOASTERFACE. ::CRIES::)

I believe that is all. I should sleep soon. D:

Oh my goddddddddddd I had such a fucking AMAZING BADASS DREAM LAST NIGHT

( To save you all from EXCITED HEROES/SUPERNATURAL CAPS AHHHHH. Minor spoilers, but not much.. )

skdjahsdkfjhds

SO. WRITER'S STRIKE. WE ALL KNEW IT WAS COMING. TIME TO WAIT FOR THOSE LAST FEW EPISODES, THEN HUNKER DOWN ON FANFICTION AND SURVIVE THE SPRING HIATUS.

( Thoughts. )

In other news, my parents are gonna be in Paris for nine days, so Evan and I have run of the house for that time. Went by Vons last night and bought a bunch of quasi-junk-food that my mom would never let us get--Lucky Charms, Eggos, Ore-Ida fries.... and then oatmeal and brown sugar, but uh, that's not junk food. XD;

The bad thing about this is that I have to get up around 6:45 to take my brother to school, though I can then go back home and sleep, so it's not such a big deal, although today it kind of sucked because I was planning on getting up again around 11 but NO. I HAD LADYCRAMPS AND THAT MADE ME BEDRIDDEN FOR A COUPLE MORE HOURS.

Gonna take my brother to take pictures of restaurants... or... something for the school newspaper. Should shower. Wooo~

Did I mention I got the S2 Supernatural DVDs recently? 8D Ehehehehehe.... AND ALSO, SORRY, NANOSTORY; I CHEATED ON YOU WITH MY SPN FIC. ;___;

GOT TO FREEBIRD ON HARD MODE ON NOT-QUICKPLAY AND NOW I CAN'T BEAT IT AGAIN. ;_; auughghhjfj,sd

1861 / 50000 words. 4% done!

Not much. But it's something. 8D I have 4000+ words done of the Spn fic, but I'm glad I'm getting into the original story groove. Woooo. I probably won't get to all of 50,000 since this is a story I want to be at least half-decent, and my slowness+attention span = super slow, but uh... yeah.

wooooooo

I also want to play more PW3. 8D ...and I've been biting my nails especially bad lately auuggh. DX

I BEAT FREEBIRD ON HARD MODE! AHHHHHHHHHHHH OMG OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE IT

HEY, IT'S A MILESTONE FOR ME. I totally just tried it for kicks, thinking I'd FAIL LIKE I ALWAYS DO. YES

In other news, I can't believe how bad I've gotten into Supernatural. I'm even actively searching for fanfiction, something I haven't done in years. Found a massive archive, but now I need to get through it. A PROJECT FOR ANOTHER DAY, PERHAPS? Also working on a fanfiction of my own, courtesy of an A/U idea Fam had. The idea's got potential, but I hope I can deliver something more than a one-shot. ONE SCENE DONE... A LOT TO GO.

I should also go shopping for art supplies and clean my room tomorrow. :B

I have an awesome new Supernatural layout! I didn't quite make it myself, but I decided to hunker down and make the best of my new life as a free account user, so I credit reversescollide for the awesome template I used. Wooo. I think it turned out pretty nice, in fact, PROBABLY NICER THAN MY PAST PAID ACCOUNT LAYOUTS. :X

Looking forward to / dreading November 1st. Trying out NaNo for my very first time; we'll see how far I get. Also, I really, really wanna write a Supernatural fic but I have no clear ideas. MUST FIND SOME.

On a more serious note, I hope all of my fellow SoCal buddies are doing okay in wake of the fires that are ravaging the area. I'm okay here in the middle of LA, but when I was up in Santa Clarita for my figure drawing workshop, the wind started blowing in the smoke from up north and I was OUTTA THERE as soon as the workshop finished. Can't imagine how you guys are handling the conditions on a daily basis. DX I hear they closed down CalArts for the time being, and... stuff, so I wonder if I'll be able to go this Sunday.

Anyway, best of luck to all of you guys. <333 DON'T INHALE TOO MUCH SMOKE D:

First off, sorry I disappeared for three days--Court was in town and we distracted each other with our new favorite shows. WHAT NEW FAVORITE SHOWS, YOU ASK? WELL.

( HOW ERIN GOT HOOKED ON SUPERNATURAL. No spoilers. )

So now I've seen up to the first episode of Season 3 aaaaaaaaaaaand I kinda bought the FIRST SEASON DVDs. >_>;;; SHOWING IT TO COURT AND MY MOM. Gonna ask for the second season for Christmas. Omgomg.

I'll make a more coherent entry about my opinions about the show once I've gotten some sleep and am not brain dead. But I AM SO EXCITED THANK YOU FAM FOR INTRODUCING ME AND SHARING WITH ME THIS WONDERFULNESS

My day yesterday was SO HECTIC but very rewarding in the end.

( The TALE OF THE GREAT BIRTHDAY SURPRISE FOR COURT )

AND THAT'S ABOUT IT :B

WOW

( I LOVE YOU )

Also, kind of cool: They were filming Monk up in Westwood when I was on my way back to my car from my figure drawing class and I saw Tony Shalhoub with his female sidekick and stuff. Too bad I don't watch that show and TOO BAD IT WASN'T HOUSE. I think I had A DREAM once where I saw Hugh Laurie in real life HOW SAD IS THAT

EDIT: Also, famira has me hooked on Supernatural. ;_; I'VE WATCHED LIKE SEVEN EPISODES ALREADY, SIX OF WHICH WE WATCHED TONIGHT. This would be awesome if every other episode didn't CREEP THE HELL OUT OF ME AND SCARE ME and make me want to avoid mirrors forever holy hell. I look forward to seeing the brotherly relationship deepen and make me WIBBLE, as I hear it will. :X

....COURT, DON'T KILL ME THAT I WATCHED IT BEFORE HEROES? ::HIDES.:: In my defense, I can watch Supernatural off a site whereas I'd have to download Heroes episodes, and... I'm running out of hard drive space. D: I need to get my DVD burner working.
