*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 [livejournal.com profile] seschat and my Sherlock headcanon to [livejournal.com profile] 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: [livejournal.com profile] 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 I just watched my Walking Far From Home fanvid and just realized that somehow, a clip-series was doubled. Like, there is a whole verse that's been doubled. This will have to be rectified. I just... *facepalm* And no one's said anything? I'm going to go hide under a rock in shame now.

I'm slowly working my way through my WIPs. For example, I finally installed a video editing programme which is better than Windows Movie Maker and, hopefully, will not freeze everytime I look at it. The installation went by without a hitch, but now there's the problem that I have no idea how to use it. Instantly intuitive, it is not. For the moment, I'm going to stick with WMM because I finally have the omgworkonfanvideeee bug back, but I will, eventually, learn how to use the new programme. Once that's utterly dominated, I will be able to make a wee dent in my gigantic To-Do fanvid list. So while no progress was actually made, I've re-re-replanned out the last few verses and who knows, I might actually work on a line sometime this week. I will finish that bastard even if it's on my 90th birthday!

The muse for the written word continues to be MIA, but I'm making good progress on the screencapping-and-snarking project for Friday 13th. Yay progress! (Well, progress is easy when all you do is resize and adjust contrast, but still.)

What I have accomplished, however, is watching a lot of television and film. For example, I watched all of Dharma and Greg's season 2, and now I'm whipping thrugh Grandma's House because Simon Amstell is adorable and that's pretty all that passes through my head as I watch it. Oh, Simon, listen to your mum! Get back on Nevermind the Buzzcocks!

Also watched was Waitress which was very good, a bit sad, had VERY GOOD PIE OMG, and was completely misrepresented by the trailer. (Light romantic comedy my ass!) It's made quite a bit sadder by the fact that the director, writer and co-star was murdered shortly after.

Oh, and I finally got paid for the Actual Proper Work I did in January. I has bling! ...I has no plans for said bling.

In the afternoon, while my parents went off to the reception in conmemoration of Mexico's independence - El grito - I worked on the Push Fanvid for Supernatural I started over a year now. I'm at minute 2:15 - blessedly past the horrid and endless guitar riff - but there's about 1:37 minutes left, and that's including a repetition-of-lyrics at the end.

It's about how being a hunter - being Sam and Dean - is a life where bad things happen to them (even if they're the cause of good things happening in other people) and it's also about the demands and effect of Papa Winchester on their lives.

I'm a tad stumped on the coming verse, which is going to be Dean-centric. If you'd like to fling ideas at me, or have me bounce them off of you, do continue reading. Read more... )
