december 14 + 15

Days 14 and 15! Yesterday's, rather late, is for brooklinegirl. She was there in ds fandom when I got into it, almost three years ago, and she's one of the people who's still right there in it with me, not distracted by any other shinies.

Here are some things I associate with Tracey: sea monkeys; penguins in sweaters; the word "ass-come"; everything DIRTY in the entire WORLD. Tracey is funny and cool and a great writer and a great beta, and her bitchery just makes me love her better. I actually cannot think of anyone else in fandom who has probably influenced my vocabulary and speech patterns as much as her. She still gets whiny random emails from me on a regular basis (because lj just isn't enough!) Also, she is amazingly tolerant and patient with my total antipathy towards her favorite pairing.

And where I mention Tracey, I have to mention estrella30. Nan has moved on from due South pretty much totally now, and I guess she is one of the biggest of BNF's over in crazy land of Wincest and CW RPF. I miss her fic a lot, but I guess we can't be selfish: Supernatural needs Nan's wackiness and awesomeness, too, and oh man, Nan certainly seems to be happy there; her love for her boys is almost tangible.

In conclusion, Nan is adoorbell. Also, she has an awesome accent.

friday nights = yay

Here are some things I learned today!

1) Chief Weber from Grey's Anatomy is also Brandon's boss at the Beverly Hills Beach Club on 90210.

2) Daniel Jackson's grandfather is Mort the coroner!

3) Man, when you are having a ridiculous craving for red meat and cheese and goop and grease, there is nothing to fill the craving like Carl's Jr. Yum.

4) I am one of the few people who does not at all mind the new update journal page.

5) I really need to learn to walk in high heels so I can wear awesome trashy girly shoes. Heh.

Anything interesting for you guys?

2006 writing round-up

Here is what I wrote this year:

( 11 stories in 5 fandoms )

It's odd writing them all out like this -- I've considered myself to be more or less in a state of writer's block since mid-last year, but that actually seems like quite a bit more than I was expecting. Not to mention that I look way, way less monofannish than I actually consider myself. (Of course, my main side fandom isn't represented here at all: I haven't written any Grey's Anatomy, ever.)

Off to Barnes and Noble for shopping with the sister! Yays.
