The "Fwee" Thread

Yesterday was pretty rough, but in the end I think it was a good day :) Plus it was my ten month anniversary with Reeni <3 And I got some reeeeeally good news :D

Awesome!! How'd it go?

(amusingly enough I had an interview the same day you got yours! just a summer job - though they were nice enough to offer to let me keep it over winter break too - but still. adult responsibilities!)

I think it went pretty well, thanks! At least I didn't die! Mine is also a summer job. It's a work-study position that sounds even cooler now that I've talked to the manager and omg I want it so much.
 
"So let me get this straight. You're all a bunch of geeks and nerds taking advantage of a dangerous situation to play pirates?"

Reading Oceans Unmoving always chills me out and makes me feel more content. It's like the sci-fi version of Pirates of the Caribbean. It even features Timey-Wimey, wibbly-wobbly... stuff, but that part is nicely downplayed and slips into the background of the story.

The plot twist, where one of the main characters falls into the very Oceans Unmoving mentioned in the title and enters the Long Grey (a type of state where their timeline fades and they turn to stone forever), hits you in the face too.

Naturally, that simplistic plot summary doesn't do it justice, but this isn't a review thread. Plus I haven't even spoiled the plot: it's that complicated and full of depth.

god if there's onE THING I'M HAPPY ABOUT MY TWELVE-YEAR-OLD!SELF FOR it's coming up with a roleplay that kinda takes a cliche idea and mutates it into something relatively cool

even seven/almost-eight years later it's still one of the coolest things i've come up with

and in the seven-almost-eight years since i came up with it i also devised ways to refine it into something Remotely Serious that I'm actually trying to make an Actual Fic.

SO MUCH BRAINSTORMING

SO MUCH FUN

GOSH I'VE DONE SO MUCH WORK ON THIS IN THE PAST FEW DAYS

AND I'VE CREATED SOME GREAT NEW CHARACTERS THAT ARE GONNA BE A BLAST TO WRITE

HECK, THEY ALREADY ARE. I SPENT LIKE AN HOUR STRAIGHT WRITING LAST NIGHT. WHICH I CAN NEVER DO.

I'M SO HAPPY GOD
 
powered by the glory that is Yeezus (which I only listened to for the second time yesterday after failing to get into it almost a year ago) I revamped my signature, replacing several pretentious song lyrics with pretentious lyrics from songs I actually listen to
 
Hmm, despite the absolute SHITSTORM that was my last relationship... it appears I've met someone new whom I really like and am kind of sort of dating.

Wow, a couple weeks. Phantom's a smooth talking romancer, what can I say. Ha.
 
This morning, after a long night of vodka martinis and vampire movies, I made my way to Starbucks for my usual fix-up - a venti mocha followed by a vanilla macchiato. While I was going over various musings in my head and listening to the Van Morrison song that was playing on the radio, I checked the voice mail on my phone and saw Virgin Mobile had left me a message. There had been a vital mistake on my last bill, and so I was being refunded for overcharges on my voice minutes. Later that day, I found one of those special vending machines from Coca-Cola's viral marketing campaign. It was a very memorable day.
