I am having a grumpy hormonal week, and to top it all off, my face is breaking out. Boo.

Livejournal, you have been awfully quiet lately! What is going on with you? Talk to me. Tell me something that is making you happy! Tell me something that is pissing you off! Tell me about the song you can't stop listening to or the picture you can't stop staring at or the last joke you heard! Are you writing or vidding or creating something cool?

You are especially encouraged to comment if we don't talk very often. Hi, I am bad at making the first move; let's get to know each other.

Comments

Hi Erica! I should be vidding but I'm totally not. Instead I'm daydreaming about a very long, AU Logan/Weevil fic where Logan springs Weevil from jail and then leaves him alone, and Weevil goes to community college and ends up involved in activist-y stuff to help youth in trouble, and Logan comes back years later and they have sex and stuff.

I'm very fond of Mr. Eli Navarro. Um. Yes.

You know what also makes me happy? Dean with AMNESIA.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

That is an AWESOME story. <3<3.

Does Dean with amnesia lead to boysex because he doesn't remember they're brothers?

You know what's even better than Dean with amnesia? Dean with a KITTEN.

hi. i just realized that i haven't updated in a WEEK. what is up with that? i used to be the spam queen. no wonder people are unfriending me in droves.

my coworker is meeting the president of mexico tonight. that's pretty exciting.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Awww, jaci! I miss your sparkling wit! Also, you keep me well informed about movies and stuff about which I would otherwise be ignorant!

[slodwick.livejournal.com]

The Dixie Chicks released their new album on Tuesday, and Monday night, the Medium season finale used one of their songs, called "Lullaby". The song has basically not left my head AT ALL since Monday night... I even dreamt about it. *shakes head*

If you are interested, you can listen to the new album here (http://dixiechicks.msn.com/), I believe.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

I even dreamt about it. *shakes head*

*giggles* Awesome.

[justbreathe80.livejournal.com]

Hi, you! It's pissing me off that I still have a paper to write. But you know what makes it better? PORN. Yes, that's right, my LJ is full of porn. Lots and lots of it. F/K/V! F/K! Yes!

I'm sorry you're having a shitty week, dude, and I hope you feel better soon.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT PORN!

To tell you the truth, all the papers I have to write are contributing quite a bit to my own shitty attitude. Heh.

[etben.livejournal.com]

Hi hi hi! We don't talk very much, but I kind of wish we did, because you are all over shiny awesome.

I am ornery right now, and trying very hard not to make "I like girls" my response in every interaction I have. Because while it's true, it's not entirely true, and it's really not at all a productive thing to be saying, although it would be fun to watch people's eyes bug out.

And that is my story! also I am writing porn in my head, of the f/v/k variety, but I don't think that will make it out any time soon.

Finals are crazy-making. Ow.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Hee, yes, I can see how "I like girls" would not always be an appropriate response. Like, "What do you want for lunch?" or "What time is it?" Time and place, dude.

Finals are evil. I'm currently on week 8 of a 10 week term, so I have two more weeks of classes, and then one week of finals. Boo.

[musesfool.livejournal.com]

Hi hi. I'm writing threesome porn and reading poetry when I should be working.

I can't stop listening to "I Hear the Bells" by Mike Doughty not because of the Logan/Veronica associations, but because it's so cool! He sings about commas and ampersands! And making out in the balcony! I love these things!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Yay porn and poetry!

I totally don't know that song. Are you willing to share, perhaps?

[ngaio]

I have going round in my head Last Saskatchewan Pirate by Captain Tractor a) because it makes me laugh, and b) because it makes me think of due South which is never a bad thing! (Salty Bob!)

I'm afraid I'm all mellow at the world right now because (and here come the letters again!) a) it's my day off tomorrow, b) karenbear is sending me Supernatural *and* Bones in the post and I hope they'll arrive tomorrow, and c) ruric and friends will be visiting (which - oh no! visitors! but ...) with harddrives etc for me to grab House and possibly other goodies too. I'm going to be media-enabled for the next three years or so!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Huzzah for friends and fannish media!

[riverlight.livejournal.com]

You are especially encouraged to comment if we don't talk very often. Hi, I am bad at making the first move; let's get to know each other.

Hi! We do not in fact really know each other. So! Here are three things that make me, riverlight, happy:
1) I just graduated college. OMG. (Smith College, BA, Political Science). Apparently I am officially an adult now... who knew?
2) I have a cup of good strong tea (Red Rose, from Canada, yay!) and have good music playing (Dave Carter and Tracy Grammer) and there are lilacs outside my window, and really, I don't need much more to be very happy!
3) Right now, Stargate Atlantis is making me very happy too (mm, Ronon and his hair knives) but also Due South—I watched dS the other day for the first time in literally months, and oh, how did I get by so long without it? Fraser! And Ray! holding hands in an alley! Oh, man, totally the best thing ever. ::grin::

So, there you have it. Hi!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Awwww, yay. Those all sound like awesome things!

[zeenell]

I just friended but, hmmm... Hello.

As to recent jokes:
Two tall trees, a birch and a beech, are growing in the woods. A small tree
begins to grow between them, and the beech says to the birch, "Is that a son of a beech or a son of a birch?"


The birch says he cannot tell. Just then a woodpecker lands on the sapling. The birch says, "Woodpecker, you are a tree expert. Can you tell if that is a son of a beech or a son of a birch?"

The woodpecker takes a taste of the small tree. He replies, "It is neither a son of a beech nor a son of a birch. However; it is the best piece of ash I have ever put my pecker in."

I am currently writing the seocnd/last part of a House/Pirates of the caribbean xover since I signed up for crossovers100 with House as the fandom.

The song I can't get out of my head is Hanging by a moment by Lifehouse.

[isiscolo.livejournal.com]

I applaud your joke!

[isiscolo.livejournal.com]

What is going on with me: I am not writing my greatestfits story, damn it! I need to finish it!

What is making me happy: due South! I watched 2 s2 eps and 2 s3 eps over the last few days. Mmmm.

Also, my cat, who is in my lap.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Yay du South! And yay kitties; I pine terribly for a cat of my own.

[fmith.livejournal.com]

Hi! We don't really know each other. Three not especially interesting things:

1. Your icon is totally cute. I love Twitch City/Molly Parker. ♥
2. I'm recently addicted to Alias. (I blame fox1013 and kurtbert.) Right now I'm in the middle of 1x15.
3. Today I found out that the girls I golf with at school (for Wellness class -- basically like Health/Gym) watch Grey's Anatomy. Not only that, but they a) love Addison and b) hate McDreamy. I'm pretty sure this is almost as awesome as the time I found out the girl who sits across from me in History likes Due South.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Aw, I just got into Alias, too, due to Fox! Although I started earlier and have actually finished all of season 3 now. Mmmmmmm, Jack Bristow.

[cereta.livejournal.com]

If all goes according to plan, tomorrow, I should be planting my vegetable garden. I just can't wait.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Awww, yay, vegetable gardens! I have no space or dedication for gardening, I'm afraid, but I think I need to start going to the farmer's market every week. SUMMER.

[mazily.livejournal.com]

Hi, I am at work, and time is actually moving backwards. I am drinking coffee. I think I have forgotten how to write, like, at all, which is scary and making me want to scream (though that could be the PMS, I just don't know).

Happy things include: pumpkin ravioli, the NYT profile on Ryan Seacrest, Dolly Parton's cover of "Stairway to Heaven," and lamb curry. Note how two out of four of those things are food; this is why it is a good thing indeed that I am not a plant.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Mmmmm, lamb curry. Now you have me craving it.

[lorem_ipsum]

Hi! I fell into the Fraser Torture Archive several days ago and could not get out, except now I have read or skimread, like, *all* of it, and it's *over* and I don't know what to DO with my brain now, except maybe write cracked-out fics with alien mobsters who are cousins of the killers of Fraser's father and who beat up and rape Fraser and force him into prostitution all so that he can be rescued and nurtured and sexed up by assorted Vecchios and/or Kowalskis. *whirly eyes*

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Ahahahahaha. I do not know if I can in good conscience encourage this, but, um. Good luck! *g*

[in-stead.livejournal.com]

How can I resist an invitation like that?!

Things that make me happy right now:
- almost being done school
- having an interview for a job in England (fingers crossed!)
- writing for the first time in two years!
- writing TWO stories simultaneously after writing NOTHING for two years (M.A. thesis aside...)
- summer is here!
- riding my bike
- Stargate: Atlantis (ah, fandom)
- lists

Things that are pissing me off right now:
- I broke the air valve on the back tire of my bike and can't go riding until I get it fixed
- I broke my guitar -- my closet door fell off the wall, hit it, and cracked the top
- trying to find a summer job -- I hate job hunting!

Song I can't stop listening to right now:
- Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol

Creating something cool:
- the aforementioned two stories! (well, I think they're cool, anyway)

Hi!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Hi!

Yay for writing and good weather! I agree with you on the evils of job hunting; I have to find summer work, and I am not qualified for, like, anything. And your closet door seems cruel and arbitrary! Booo.

[eledhwenlin]

Hi!

I'm bad at making the first move, too, although I'm trying to become a better person and become more open. We'll see how that'll work out. ;)

I have no less than five due South plotbunnies populating my room, but university keeps me from having any time to write. Mreh.

As for songs - I'm listening to Lordi, who just won the Eurovision Song Contest. *outs self as German*

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Heeeeeee. They were the crazy looking Finnish ones, right? *tries to remember from the Go Fug Yourself review*

[riadsala.livejournal.com]

Hello! I have been scanning film negatives at work 8 hours a day for the past week and a half, so to preserve my sanity I have taken to stalking my friendsfriends list and now commenting to complete strangers on the internets. (Well, not complete strangers. I mean, you're pearl_o.)

Oh, I wrote porn at work for the first time today. Well, brainstormed. But I wrote naughty words where other people could potentially have seen them. I feel like I've crossed a fandom milestone. Or mixed a fandom metaphor. Something.

The only jokes I know are nerdy math and science ones, so I won't inflict them on you. Although, what do you call cheese that isn't yours?


Nacho' cheese!! Hee, my favorite stupid joke. Whup, time to change the film strip...again.

[riadsala.livejournal.com]

Heh, I think actually you're pearl_o.

[mrsronweasley.livejournal.com]

I have an awesome new shirt that I can't wait to share with the world!

Also, I have a ton of vid ideas but none of the equipment. It makes me sad. It's making my brain hurt, in fact.

Also, I fucked up my parents' car and feel like a 16-year old trapped in a 23-year old body. Oh noes!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Awww, sweetie, that is the SUCK. Being a 16-year-old is bad enough when you really ARE a teenager!

*snuggle*

[jae-w.livejournal.com]

I have been having kind of a rough week, so I am looking forward to a three-day (or three-and-a-half-day, if I can swing it) weekend where I am going to try to do as many things that make me happy as possible, hopefully including:
-a barbeque with friends
-going to the Garfield Conservatory flower market and buying plants for my container garden
-seeing MI:3
-working on a story I've really been wanting to work on
-maybe watching some Deadwood reruns to get ready for the upcoming season

How about you? Any plans for the weekend?

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Huzzah for three day weekeend!

And hmmm, this weekend. Right now my plans are mostly a) sleep; b) write more papers for school and c) vid, in that order. Fun times!

[speshope.livejournal.com]

*dutiful*
What is going on with me?
I am sitting in the EMU computer lab because I am too damn lazy to go home! I am also starving, but telling myself that being able to afford going to England is so much more important than eating.

Something that is making me happy!
-The person who linked to the Canadian!Pirates!Song!! in your comments has made me ridiculously happy.
-The fact that I have a blister from wielding a sword really entertains me.
-Apparently: italics

Something that is pissing me off!
-Amelia's boss, who is a total heinous bitch and I honestly cannot understand how she can be so unsympathetic and un-understanding about shit. Also, I don't understand how she can talk shit about Amelia while I'm in the room.

Last joke I heard:
Something about 165 pirates walking into a bar. It was an improv thing. Basically, the set up is you have to tell the joke in this format: "165 [blanks] walk into a bar. The bar tenders says "Sorry, we don't serve [blanks] here." and then you come up with the rest.

My contribution was thus:

165 pirates walk into a bar. The bartender says: "Sorry, we don't serve pirates here." The pirates reply: "Oh, we're actually looking for the mast maker." Bartender asks: "Did yours break?" Pirates reply: "Aye, we had one sent to us, but now we're here to collect our mast rebate."

It is purely contingent on the fact that you're in eighth grade and the word 'masterbate' will make you laugh.

Am I writing or vidding or creating something cool?
Nope!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Italics rock!!!

Also, hee, masturbate.

[riverlight.livejournal.com]

Yay MHC! Women's college solidarity! ;)
And yay Northampton! I'm very excited about the prospect of living here without having school to deal with—I mean, I loved school, don't get me wrong, it's just—Noho's such a cool city, and I'm thrilled to get to explore it all.

If you get the urge to hang out and be fannish, drop me a line! My roomate, much as I love her, doesn't quite understand some of my fannish obsessions... ::laugh::

[justbreathe80.livejournal.com]

OMG, totally. That's so awesome that we've been a mile away from each other, and we didn't even know it. We should definitely get together sometime over the summer. Yay!

[barely-bean.livejournal.com]

I'm going on vacation in 24 days!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Aww, I am totally jealous!

[china_shop]

Hey there, you! *waves*

I'm happy that I finished my school flashfic before Ces closed the challenge, and that I got a free flashdrive/pen today and a plushy chameleon.

I need to write my greatest_fits fic! Argh!

The last joke I heard was, "As we say in Mexico, he's so stupid he couldn't pour piss out of a boot if the instructions were written on the heel."

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Hee, flashfiction plus free stuff plus plushy chameleon = ROCK.

[lattara.livejournal.com]

*hands you chocolate*

Well. um. Hi?

I'm in the middle of my exam period (*cries*) and reading up on Danish at the moment. Along with, of course, Psychology and History, because the people who plan these exams are CRAZY.

But it makes me happy that I just made three t-shirts bearing the proud declamation "Mutual Appreciation Society" that will be handed out to various friends who graduate this summer, too. I'm cool like that. :)

"You are especially encouraged to comment if we don't talk very often. Hi, I am bad at making the first move; let's get to know each other."

Hi! We don't know each other, but here I am anyway. Playing in my gardens makes me happy, watching the last of S&A S2, and reading dS as well as SGA fic. I'm looking forward to WriterCon in July even though, aside from an RPS I'm tagging, I'm pretty much blocked on writing right now.
