What made my day...hmm...I think I'm still working on that actually.
I think there was this moment of clarity I had today, and I wrote a song. Didn't quite grasp the moment, but I liked the song, which is a rarity.

Congrats! And seriously, update us on when it gets published. I'm serious about buying the issue and writing in on how much I loved your article.

Thanks Saya, I'm fangirl excited about this! They promised me the summer issue, provided I don't write it up, send it in and get a polite email along the lines of "We heart your commitment to our mission... but... damn, that is SO not what we were asking for."

By the way, this is where you get a thanks for even introducing me. I became a fangirl after that slash article you posted way back.

It does indeed. Although I'm more interested than complicit, really. What can I say - I think stumbling on some downright fucked-up Wincest before I even knew what slash was kind of tainted it for me!

None of the schools I looked at seemed like anything great to me. So I never went.
Been looking into special effects schooling lately, as I'm much more interested in that.

Actually what I want to get into myself. Ultimate aim and all. May go back to get my esthetician's license after this. Build my credentials, then try to get on with MAC or someone. I'd love to go to Tom Savini's.

I've got a job interview next week. It's only for a one day a week starting position at minimum wage but it's a start. I have to get back to normality some time.

Seriously. The story I stumbled on involved force-feeding and crying from both even before the actual sex was had, all of the above kind of shady on the subject of consent. Kink I get, but this was an overall FUUUUUCCCK MY EYES moment. Joke is, I'm pretty sure I was searching something like the start date of series 6 or some shit. o_O

Guys, you know Destiel fic is the best.

What made my day: Started a new semester, and I'm taking an anthro course that is focusing on the Vietnam war, the anti-war movement then and how the war affected how we think of war and the anti-war movement, and also how we produced a memory of Vietnam that we're more comfortable with. He might see if he can get a copy of Deer Hunter instead but looks like we will be deconstructing Rambo later on in the course. Well, there's a lot in this course I'm looking forward to, but I have a feeling Versus won't be too happy with the evisceration of Rambo XD

Also, the prof said 9 is a really early time to get to school, so we'll met at 9:30 instead. Extra half hour of sleep! Whoo!

Thumbs up Made my day

This little snippet made my day,


If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you would have £49.00 today

If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you would have £33.00 today.

If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you would have £0.00 today.

If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Northern Rock three years ago, you would have £0.00 today

But, if you had purchased £1,000 worth of beer one year ago at Tescos, drank all the beer,then taken the aluminum cans to the scrap metal dealer, you
would have received a £214.00.


Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle.

A recent study found that the average Briton walks about 900 miles a year.

Another study found that Britons drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year.

That means that, on average, Britons get about 41 miles to the gallon!

Makes you proud to be British.
