I will be very happy when July 31^st gets here.  That’s when the extra $600 a week for unemployment finally expires.   That may sound horrible, but I’m on the opposite end of that.  I have worked through this entire thing, and the only applicants I’ve gotten for my critically short staffed store, have been applying for the unemployment requirement that they do so.  Have only had one day off since November 14^th.  ONE.  Plus, I’m already on schedule for a minimum of 80 hours a week, and if anyone calls off, I get to cover it.  Because I don’t have enough staff.  So my average work week is more like 90 hours or better.  Awful damn tired of people working the system.

Lately, Chrome has been randomly assigning the icons for my frequently visited sites. Right now, AFF has the IMDB icon. 

There’s a joke in there somewhere, but I can’t seem to pry it out.

The very happiest of birthdays to WillowDarkling, my sweet Neko-baby! I’m wishing for only wonderful things for you this year!    

Working 60+ hours is not conducive to writing.

Having spent the past two weekends tackling ambitious to-do lists, I’m already planning to spend at least one day of the coming weekend doing virtually nothing but chilling on the sofa and watching TV. Good thing season 5 of She-Ra drops tomorrow. 

Ten questions I'd ask various superheroes if they were real:

1. Squirrel Girl: What are you going to call yourself when you're forty?
2. Black Panther and Aquaman: Shouldn't you guys be, like, at home settling trade disputes instead of running around in tight pants?
3. Martian Manhunter: Suspenders with shorts? Is that a Martian thing?
4. America Chavez: If you just gently poked some cookie dough with your finger, would it make star shapes?
5. Iron Man: What do you do if you have an itch?
6. Beast Boy: So, when you turn into an animal, is it always a boy animal?
7. Wolverine: If you and Vandal Savage got in a fight, which of you do you think would get bored and go home first?
8. The Flash: Do women actually like the speed thing? Because, you know...
9. The Thing: Do you think the right moisturizer would help?
10. Violet Parr: Have you ever searched your own name on a site called Rule34?

Alrighty then… Terminology final assignment done, created a terminology list for fan fiction… let’s see how that goes

You guys ever find yourselves shipping a pairing you know you shouldn’t?  Like maybe the relationship isn’t exactly healthy, or one of the characters is a hero and the other is the villain, or something like that, but you still kind of like seeing them together?

I have progressed from starting stories and not finishing them to not starting stories. Well, ok, regressed then. Which is a shame as the next unfinished one would have been about a guy finding out his Mom had a twin after finally meeting the rest of the family (after his Mom’s falling out before he was born). It’d have been dead pervy as there’d be an attraction on both sides.

My evolving list of chores:

1. Clean and polish front door
2. Buy caulk for cabinets
3. Laundry

1. Swap out front-door wreath that's been there since Christmas

1. Buy poison for wasps' nest on front door frame

I’m never gonna get to that laundry.

I want to wish a very Happy Birthday to the amazing Melrick! If it were possible, I’d send you a Key Lime pie from JG Melon’s, but you’ll have to settle for a virtual hug.

Wishing the very happiest of birthdays to my dear Pittwitch. Love you!

As of 1 hour 18 minutes ago, I am officially 34 years old.

Time for the annual bout of freaking out about all the things I haven’t done in my life!

That awkward moment when you realise you’re lusting after your professor…. One would think I’d outgrown this at my age… for feck’s sake 

Feeling kind of bummed about my legit writing right now. 

• 25 rejections (and counting) from agents regarding my first book.
• Stuck on my second book.
• No good ideas for my third book.

 Why is legit writing so much harder than smut?

I may diss my phone a lot, but I was very impressed a while back when I started dictating the final chapter of "Country Summer." Not only did it use a colon where I wanted it to --  instead of just writing the word "colon" -- but it put the chapter title in proper title case ("Chapter 11: Under the Stars"). You go, Google.

gosh, i cant believe i am 35 now. scary! lol 

Happy Birthday BronxWench!

Who says nothing good ever happens to me? I’ve been invited to take part in an ancient local midwinter ritual to ensure the sun returns next year! The only downside is nobody wants to make plans for anything past the ritual date now, and apparantly I’ll have to lie on some cold stone for a bit.

Why do I not understand linguistics?!!! ::smashes brain with laptop::

I have completed the NaNoWriMo challenge!  50k words written in The Target, which still isn’t completed!  Hurrah!  Woo!

Managed to write 400 words today for the first time in ages. And worked in two of those week 210 straight from Hell prompts with an idea on using the last still. This is nothing for y’all NaNoWriMo folks or even just regular folks, but it felt good to me! Now just gotta finish, and polish.
