I ATE'NT DEAD
Dec. 17th, 2004 06:30 pmResurfacing briefly to voice my rising panic about the 45 texts at 27KB each I must write by the end of December. In addition to finishing the Yuletide fic and writing a couple of corporate articles.
And no, I haven't bought any Christmas presents yet.
I'm not dead yet, but I might be by the end of this month.
*goes back to panicking quietly*

The VCR of Doom
Nov. 10th, 2004 08:27 pmMy video recorder has taken over control. It's currently recording and won't let me switch it off. WTF?
I tried to stop, eject, reprogram... I tried unplugging! And yet, it's recording. (After I plugged back in, that is. I would be seriously worried if it worked without any power supply.) W!T!F!?
Can you tell I haven't been working on any fics lately? *spams flist with random RL info*

Teh Dilemma
Nov. 5th, 2004 06:48 pmI'm about to take a shower and can't decide whether to wash my hair or not. Pros: freshly washed hair = soft and fluffy and shiny and can be worn open instead of being forced into an accaptable hairdo (which will fall apart halfway through the evening anyway). Cons: washing hair not only time-consuming but also superfluous, really, since club will be hot and smoky and hair will lose softness and shine halfway through the evening anyway. Time would be much better employed if I started writing that Sands/Satan fic I'm contemplating.

Bravely facing the Challenge
Aug. 11th, 2003 12:34 amGod! I've just finished filling out the most tedious forms ever. It's not that I think people shouldn't pay taxes. It's only that the entire tax declaration process is the most annoying waste of time I've ever gone through. The tax office's kept refusing to accept my forms for months now, and I'm refusing to spend a lot of money on a tax consultant just because he/she has an official stamp and is therefore respected.
So, my RL challenge for this year: Manage to make a tax declaration they'll accept. (It doesn't help that the Futurama episode in which Hermes Conrad is fired by Morgan Proctor and has to apply to get his job back at the Central Bureaucracy was on TV the other day. I think there's more truth to it than we realise.)
In other (and happier) news: I received my Snape/Black Fuh-Q Fest challenge: "During nighttime exploration of the castle, Severus discovers a door that leads to a tropical island. He also finds Sirius, asleep on the beach."
Definitely more fun than the RL one. Although Snape would probably disagree. Somehow, I don't think he particularly enjoys tropical islands. Especially if they happen to contain Sirius Black.
