Pumkins have all the fun
Nov. 15th, 2005 09:20 pmHave decided to be completely random about topic title. Because I can.
It might be what some would call fahng-tzong fung-kwong duh jeh* but I´ve just spent the entire day bored out of my mind. Not even discovering, via metaquotes, that somewhere there´s Jayne/River/Kaylee fics made my day.
(And let me add that I love metaquotes, not only because it´s like the news, only funny and about stuff I´m actually interested in, but because it literally makes me LOL**. And that is a very rare and precious gift.)
There´s this meme going on about which fictional characters you´d love to punch.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
patsyrant voices what K and I´ve been thinking all these years:
( Louis from INTERVIEW WITH A VAMPIRE )
I realize I haven´t really talked about life on the other side of the pond. Letsee... We´re practically drowning thanks to a week of rain, the ceilings dripping in the kitchen, people stop and drink coffee all the time (which stopped being a good thing after a while), baskets in the supermarket are really trolleys (*curses years as a student lugging around heavy basket*), people smoke a hell of a lot more (and it´s not illigal to do so in public closed places till January) and all the streets are old.
I haven´t been out much, have I?
Oh, one last thing. I´ve been writing a fanfic based on The Planet of the Apes, Burton-version, since it came out (2001). It´s nowhere near finished, and I´ve cringed at many a chapter and said, "Total rewrite, this one". *But* I´ve finally finished a Chapter. And now all I have to do is fill in a bunch of gaps, totall fix a "But he can´t do that now...or possibly ever...but he has to" situation, and rewrite everything I wrote in first-year.
At least NaNoWriMo´s have a deadline. This thing just never *dies*.
(Plus, there´s the whole, "Not mine" aura on everything in my fic. Sigh.)
* "a knot of self-indulgent lunacy" Kudos to this site. Yes, I´ll be doing this often.
** An example of both:
bbcnewsworld says "A live, adult giant squid is captured on film in the depths of the Pacific ocean for the first time."
