On writing and real life. Absolute epiphany days.
Hey, I caught up with my flist. And fics in general and read some pretty awesome stuff. Go me. And go to the writers too. Cuz really. Most SPN writers rock.
And I'm on vacation which is nice, and tomorrow I got a waxing appointment, which is freaky, and my brother arrived at last, and gods have I missed him. (Perfect exploitation opportunity too, since my birthday is coming soon. Let's see what I'll get him to buy me. Cuz he's a big brother and it's his duty to indulge his younger oh so adorable sister. Oh yes. Call me River. Or Sam. *evil laugh* {and I say that in a totally nonincestway cuz really. Ew.*})
Epiphany weekend
*frown* Nothing else going on.
* and that by the way is my personal take on things, not an invitation for dispute. Because I have a brother, and because we're really close, incest just icks me beyond words. Even in fic. I know I'm probably missing out on great writing, but hey...we'll all survive.

Epiphany weekend
for three reasons:
1. I've just discovered what I always suspected: I'm a one shot gen girl at heart. I've been struggling with SPN/Firefly xovers for weeks, and they go painfully slow, but they go {and I'm not a WIP person, so no way in hell I'm submitting till I've written at least 3/4 of the fic and KNOW that I'm going to end it say, before I get my pension.} And suddenly I'm listening to a song, and out comes a six page ficlet as smooth as breath. I'm waiting for my beta. Oh god let her like it. I like it.
2. All of the sudden it hit me what kind of tattoo I want to do at some point in my life (again, preferably before I'm pensioned). It hit me with the force of a sledgehammer and feels kind of steady as a choice, and left me in a Huh! mood. So. Huh.
3. I've watched a couple of the very first episodes of Veronica Mars and because curiosity is a major drive for me (how stuff works, when stuff happened, why stuff happened etc), and Veronica is a fun show, but not exactly the owner of my heart, of course I had to go and check up on who killed Lily.(spoilers ahoi, don't read on if you don't know), So I texte313and tell her
Heh! Wanna know who done it? Wasn't the butler! and she says Yes. So I say Logan's dad. She was sleeping with both father and son. The slut. and then realize (No, wait. I want to do the same with the Winchesters. NO slut.). And then she tells me something in the lines that I have to watch Prison Break because I'd reach new levels of obsession with Michael and I'm like Hmm. Michael sacrificing everything for his brother. HMMM. Let me think. THE WINCHESTERS DO IT BETTER. And probably last longer too.
So where's the epiphany in that? I suppose in the fact that the Winchesters are the yardstick I measure every other show against. Oh god, Kripke, you've damaged me for life.
