Grey and thick
Nov. 8th, 2004 01:14 pmHeadachey. Spent most of yesterday sleeping - around bouts of teaching wherein I did not slap any teenagers. Sometimes, I realize that learning a new language is not a natural state for everyone, and that looking at them baffled and frustrated doesn't help matters. It really isn't their fault.
( Writing Talk )
Went to the Beauty Bar on Saturday night. Sapphire martinis and chrome polish on my nails which I've since scraped off. Entertained M., enjoyed having him with us until we were leaving, and boy +scotch +stupid= the need to start a fight over a dumb ass remark in a far too crowded bar. He had to be escorted out. My temptation to leave his ass there? Oh, so high. Took him home instead. Argh. He woke up yesterday, still convinced that it would have been a good idea, and I lounged on the couch with the cat, napping on and off, and ignoring him. We watched a lot of TV, and I don't really remember any of it.
Feeling very out of touch with the rest of fannishness, normally being able to hang on the fringes as we watch other things, but I've just been so, so swamped that I only get to watch what M. remembers to tape, which fortunately is Jack and Bobby, but I'm missing out on the Lost love because I can't at all get it in gear to set the VCR, and haven't even seen West Wing this season.
Didn't write at all this weekend, which makes me feel guilty and sort of off, like I've already failed at something and that makes me even more annoyed.
There's some great stuff being produced out there, particularly![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rainer76's Sideways, which is posted at Kansas. Other good stuff too, and I'm drawing a complete blank on the titles. I'll go through later and find them again.
ETA: I meant to send feedback toelliejane's Enough is Enough which is her Evil!John (not evil so much as a Peacekeeper, although he was pretty evil in the first several installments). It's a strong, compelling AU where the characters have flipped roles somewhat. Each segment gets stronger, more sure of itself and I've been incredibly enthralled by the last two chapters.
