lynnmonster was the big winner in identifying them. YAAAAAAAY, Lynn!

Hmm, and coincidentally, one of these songs is playing for me right now. Go, Liz Phair, I guess. This is another one of those songs that always makes me want to write fic. Because, you know, I didn't *just finish* a depressing F/K story.

This time tomorrow I will be on the train for home. YAY, vacation!!!

help me!

Okay, so I've had the same wallpaper pretty much since I got the new computer (two months, wow) and it's very pretty, but I'm getting a little bored with it. However, I didn't bother to save and transfer any of the pretty things I had saved on the old computer. I know I had some things from thete1 that I went and found again; I was also thinking poisoninjest and katemonkey, but those seem less with the me able to find.

So. Where are good places to look for good fannish wallpapers? I like due South, Buffy, Angel, Firefly, LotR, Keira Knightley, Callum Keith Rennie, just about anyone or anything represented in my user info and lj icons. Advice?

talking about myself

So, this is going around my friends list, and while I found it somewhat frightening, it's also pretty interesting. So:

If there is any question you would like to ask me about any one of my fics, then go ahead! What I meant by a particular line, why I chose that characterisation, what I was listening to as I wrote, what crack I was taking and where you can get some...anything. Anything you might like to know about how I wrote a fic, I shall do my best to answer.

Alternatively, I kind of feel in the mood for the old commentary meme. I did Academies and Sandwich as Aphrodisiac when this was first going around in the spring, but any other stories or flashfictions I'd be willing to examine. Though I remember very very little about the writing process of anything older than a year, year and a half.

due south fangirl screencap spam

It occurs to me that it's been a couple weeks since I made a "OMG SO HOT!!!!" post. Which is just wrong on any number of levels. Because, dude. The hotness? Has not decreased in any way.

So tonight I went over to callumkeithrennie.net and started looking through their wonderful, wonderful screencaps (newly dvd-ed). And ... dude, I know I write raptures about s1 and s2 Fraser all the time, but s3 Fraser has his charms, too.

Mmmmmm. Scruffy, scruffy charms. These are good to keep in mind reading _aerye_'s random porn encouragement in estrella30's lj this morning.

And, of course, no one can deny the hotness that is Ray Kowalski. I may have a couple of kinks where he's concerned.

But really, when you come down to it? Two hotnesses that are even hotter together.
