Okay then!

So it's been a few days since I updated, and I've finally come to the conclusion that I was, in fact, still drunk when I did so as less than two hours later I was attacked by the worst hangover of my life. I didn't empty my stomach again, but I felt like I should for the next two days. Trust me. Not an experience I intend to repeat. And I have a nice reminder of it on my wrist too as I discovered that I apparently burned myself with a cigarette at some point. It took some asking for me to find someone who remembered me doing it, because I sure as hell don't. But it's there clear as day--burn mark just to the hand-side of my wrist bone. Whoops!

So I stayed in Statesboro until Friday and drove home after it got dark. Let me tell you, I cannot even DESCRIBE how much more bearable that was. You all heard my whining about how I was going to die on the way down. People are not meant to be in shiny metal cars with no AC when the temperature is a solid 100+ degrees out. I don't want to know the heat index. *shudder* Driving home was in the 80's. SO MUCH BETTER. And the hangover was gone. Which also made life better.

But then, oh then! I woke up on Saturday morning to the CRAMPS from hell! Woe is me, the world hates my abdominal muscles this week! And that part wasn't even my fault! It's just the joy of being utterly female. So I am finally entirely UN-queasy and UN-cramped today for the first time since, oh. A week ago. Huzzah.

So I went out job hunting! Right now I'll be content with JUST ABOUT ANYTHING. I even tried for the liquor store. Which wasn't hiring but hey, I tried. I think I've got a good shot at some restaurant work though, which would be fun. I bet I could get good tips! I am very bright and cheerful. Usually. As long as I don't actually KNOW you. If I know you I feel that I have free reign to make fun of you for weeks.

One good thing that came of Saturday and the Cramps of Death, however, is that while having a girly chocolate movie night with my mom, she brought down this blanket that was MEANT to be mine months ago but was stolen by my sister who now decided she doesn't want it.

It is huge. It is fluffy. It is like a million teddy bears have been sacrificed and skinned to provide me with the most comfortable blanket in the world. Really, not a wise thing to give me if ou want me to get out of bed ever. O! how it is comfortable. It's like a series of teddy bears puked up all that is good and right in the world just for my immense comfort. And O! how I love it. And O! how jealous you all should be.

And on a final note which still embarrasses me a bit: I read and enjoyed all the Twilight books last week. They're strangely addictive and yes, I am horrified at myself that I put down m Joyce to read those instead. And yet, I cannot be unhappy about it because it was fun. And everyone I hold dear IRL has simultaneously decided to become obsessed with them so it's like, my life is full of Twilight and I don't even NEED fandom. Which is fun.

Oh wait! That is not my final note! I have been reading Harry Potter fanfiction like it's going out of style for OVER A MONTH NOW and I simply MUST give you ALL my opinion on the final Big Bang.

It is huge. It is fantastic. And nothing can ever, EVER measure up to Creevey at Large. It is the best thing ever. Ever ever ever. Dennis Creevey is my new homeboy. He is amazing. And MOON! CLOWNS. MOON. OH GOD! If you even have a passing interesting in Harry/Draco fanfic and love really big really creative really FUNNY fanfictions, READ IT NOW. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!!!!

Okay. I'm done now.

I should do this more often to SAVE YOU FROM THE HUGEEEE.

Or I'm not. NEED MORE ONE PIECE. NEED MORE FAIRY TAIL. COME ON. GAAAAAAAAAAAH! *panic circles!*

DONE. SERIOUSLY. SHUTTING THE HELL UP....

NOW!

[sorry]

Thank you, everyone who's commented to me lately and I haven't responded too. It meant a lot. ♥ My high school is raising money to try to help Mary's grandkids who she was taking care of. I found out they were actually in the room with her when she was shot. Which is. aksjhasfhkjshf. I can't even imagine.

But that said. Life is settling back into normalcy, which is really, really relieving even if it's still exhausting and stressful. That much I can deal with pretty easily at least. Things are still sad and they won't stop being sad, but I've been in a good mood today. Which I refuse to feel guilty for.

Watch me break this up in cuts to save your flists.

Weather and Sunshine )

Funny/Exciting stuff uncut:

I ordered a new laptop yesterday! This is something I'm massively excited about. It's the first big purchase I've made ON MY OWN with my OWN MONEY and it will also be the first NEW computer I've ever had. It's a Dell. It's red. It's got SPACE and MEMORY and *___* In the words of [livejournal.com profile] nickelodeon, it will be so sexy.

I also spent about four hours today while at work browsing thinkgeek.com. Let me tell you, that shit is hilarious. The alarm clocks! The lights! The random gadgets and games and ANNOYING DEVICES! It's a great way to waste time.

I also got a good kick out of [livejournal.com profile] copperbadge today, which has led me to believe that since it's actually possible, the fact that there is no fic about Chopper having to fix someone's FRACTURED PENIS is a great, great tragedy. Please agree with me here.

Theatre and some fandom )

I hope people are starting to feel a little better about yesterday and its tragedy. I know it's not going to go away or anything, but still being able to enjoy things in life is so important, at least to me. I'd go crazy if I just stayed sad for ages. I don't deal with it well. So. ♥ because that's really all I can do.

So I need to eat more during the day so I stop raiding the fridge at like, 1 am. I just KNOW I won't be able to sleep HUNGRY and I'll then wake up HUNGRY and I almost never eat breakfast which means I'd have to last until lunch STILL HUNGRY. And that's not on. But really, I EAT HEALTHY. Just at weird times when no one's actually cooking dinner. But we still have a ton of leftovers from Sunday so IT WORKS. [though all the cookies we gone THAT NIGHT. Woe. And joy because people love my cookies?]

I guess I'll follow the herd a LITTLE and mention Heath Ledger. Yeah, it's incredibly sad he died, it's weird to think of people dying young and tends to be a bit of a sore topic for me but I can't help the occasional flitting thought that the wrong gay cowboy died. Ahah? Bad taste, I know. Leave me alone.

That aside, I'm making real efforts this semester to actually READ the stuff that's assigned to me. I'm only taking ONE Lit class. I should totally be able to manage it if the procrastination bug doesn't bite me in the ass like it is so prone to do. This doesn't mean I'm not planning to wake up at 9 again tomorrow and just read before class, but it's better than never getting around to it.

And part the fourth of this rather eclectic update is that One Piece is the first fandom I've really wanted to write for in a long time. Like, REALLY write. I wrote shortfic and stuff for Bleach, Ouran and PoT, but I haven't written anything over 1000 words in like. Years. Since HP fandom. But I really, really want to write something worthwhile again. Something worth noticing. I mean, I got great responses for some of my farting about but nothing I'm really all that proud of. Nothing I spent more than really an hour on. It's sort of exciting, you know?

And finally: Caught up on Project Runway. It will always be ♥. Christian is my bitchy hero.

So I haven't posted in a couple of days. Probably to make up for the THREE POSTS IN TWELVE HOURS LOLOLOL. Sorry about that? It was all important stuff, yo.

So, what to say, what to say...

School starts back on Monday [NOOO, MY FREE TIME! ;_;] but it's my LAST SEMESTER HERE which means it shouldn't be so bad but yeah. I actually got re-excited about the idea of going to Ireland for school last night because we had one of our strangely frequent dinner parties and it turns out that Meagan [not me, clearly, I only have one a in mine!] is applying for Trinity too, which is what I had been thinking about doing.

Which means that if we both do it and by some stroke of luck, GET IN, that we'd be over there together. I'd know someone. I could possibly already have a ROOMMATE. And yanno, that's damn good incentive. But hey. I'll try for it, and that's what matters, right? I'll be in debt for YEARS, but I'll also have a foot in the door for a decent job doing what I love.

And if I don't get it, to the workforce on a boat I go! Either way, I have plans. And a few months ago I sure as hell didn't. So life is good and not currently trying to kill me.

I started watching the One Piece Anime a few days ago! It's much slower going because well, you're kinda set on how fast you can watch as no matter HOW fast you read, you can't speed up the video! But I completely love it and EVERY SINGLE TIME I hear Luffy laugh it just makes me grin like a maniac. He's amazing and I adore him.

As far as OP fandom goes I still don't know what the hell I want to ship. I read a good number of ZoSan a few days ago, then started reading ZoLu yesterday and I would REALLY LOVE to see some LuZo but I haven't seemed to stumble on any yet. It's been a good time though. I think I really like not shipping anything in particular because there are just SO MANY OPTIONS. I was like this with Harry Potter to an extent, but not as much as with OP. I had definite favorites. And then just liked other stuff too when I ran out of fic for my favorites to read [possible, I assure you.] But with One Piece....just. Anything goes. And yeah. LOVE IT SO MUCH.

My new glasses are great. *__*

And DDR makes my legs hurt.

Oh, and I'l the Jenga Queen and the Hungry Hungry Hippos failure. My hippo was totally bulimic. THE BALLS WOULD GO IN HIS MOUTH AND JUST POP OUT AGAIN! WTF IS THAT.

Yeah. Enough. ♥!
