It’s been over seven years since RUSH released Clockwork Angels, and nothing has changed. I still fall into an all-encompassing, skin-prickling, lung-stilling, and soul-rending state of ecstasy every time I hear “The Wreckers.” The problem? My hubby has crazy-narrow tastes in music and can’t comprehend how I can love that song so much. It’s true, but I feel like telling him “it makes my ears jizz themselves” would be poorly received by someone who only enjoys music with screaming in it.
Seriously. My ears need a smoke after the song’s over. It’s that freakin’ good.

Struggling with a chapter since March, RL and block, not unreated.  I finally *gasp* wrote out most of an outline, that’s how stuck I was.
And nasty paperwork too.

So I’m working on Part Nine of The Woman in the Statue (the goal is to be done around the 18th), and I wanted to describe the lobby of the Van Dijk building, but how big is it?
Now I could just bullshit this...but you all know I won’t.
So the building is about 300 meters tall and is a regular octagon in cross section (meaning all eight sides are the same length).  If the lobby in which Chloe, Luzurial and the assault team fight hybrids takes up one entire side (“edge” in geometric terms), how big across is it?
Well, if we assume the building has a base diameter of one sixth of its height, then it’s 50 m in diameter and thus has a circumradius (the radius of the circle connecting all eight vertices/corners of the octagon) of 25 m.  Each eighth of the octagon can be described as an isosceles triangle with two sides 25 m long (since those “sides” are the circumradius) meeting at an angle of 45 degrees.  So now I have to find the missing side.
Just to remind everyone that I am not a math major, I literally had to use Google to be reminded that an isosceles triangle is just two right triangles smooshed together, which I really should have remembered from 9th Grade Geometry.  Anyway, since the sine (0.3826834323650897717284599840304) of one angle (22.5 degrees) of a right triangle is equal to the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the hypotenuse (25 m), and then we multiply that result (9.56708580912724429321149960076) by two to get the end of the isosceles…
So the lobby is about nineteen meters wide.  Why do I do this to myself?

finally got back on here and the pit just to delete some more stories. *sigh* i wish i knew where my motivation for writing went! or if i will ever get back to it

I was a dead star shone red into the infinite dark I bled
A dying city my inhabitants long dead
maintenance kept me just shy of that envied flat-line
My roots dug deep
your branches mixed with mine and my roots together entwine with thee and thine
Until I could no longer tell were you me?
Or was I mine?
Did I bleed out? Or did you bleed in?
A death that lasted yet was not mine
But was thee and thine
Here at the end
Time’s Den
To see with Dead and Dying sight
A strange mix of you and me
and through thine blooded light
A stranger’s might.
Impossibly bright.
Beginning.

Oh this is hilarious. I’ve once again buggered the buzzard on posting chapters and have reached out for help...and the ad on the thread, last I checked, is for something called Ghost’s Dilemma.
My pen-name varies from site-to-site due to various site restrictions on logins, but the name I go by online is Ghost Chance. Thanks for the publicity but I kinda feel called out.

...When you scorch your mouth to death, because the fecking taters are piping hot, but the meat is barely lukewarm… You’d think I’d remember by now… 

Why have I never met a female electrician? I get that carpentry and plumbing require a certain amount of upper-body strength, but does electrical work? Or is that profession just an impenetrable boys’ club?

This witch is MELTING.

Well, I snuck a new story on you guys. It is Camp season…
Hi, by the way. I miss writing….

It’s so damn nice to be writing again after such a long-assed drought. 

Wooo! I hit the 5 chapter mark! Since that’s my I-Got-This-Far-So-Pretty-sure-I-Won’t-Drop-This-fic-Like-I-Did-The-Last-Fifty-Yay line in he sand, you know what that means, don’t you? Tiiime to unleash this porny beast upon the world!!!! Mwahahahaahaha! 
Well… Soon as I edit and wrangle me a beta… BEWARE and so forth. 

Oh, for Christ’s sake.

Yesterday for my birthday, I finally got around to watching Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse. It was dope.

Sometimes I just wanna name my story what it is. Fuck nuance and creativity, this one shall henceforth be called “Porny Monster Fic with Maybe a Cult Too, If I Feel Like It.”

Keep yer fingers crossed that we get staffing issues finally settled for where I work.  It has been BRUTAL.  Sixty hours worked since Saturday.  And I’m not done.
