just dance

So, RL update. I've been kinda absentee since Sunday. Long story short, Mum got sick again and I've been up here at the hospital with her since then. We're prolly gonna be here 'till next weekend, too. So I've got her laptop, but I'm really just chilling and watching netflix with her to keep us both happy. For those of you who do so, keep us in your prayers; she needs to get a count of at least 3 on her white blood cells before they'll let her go again, and it's at 1.7 right now. So we're definitely gonna be here through Thanksgiving. I'm going to maybe be home tonight, but I'm totally just gonna chill in front of the TV and unwind a little bit before coming back up to spend more time with her. But either way I'm gonna prolly be offline around here for a while; maybe 'till into next week. If you want to talk, you can always drop a comment or send me an email.

So that's what's happening with me. NGL, Tumblr's been seeing a lot of me the past couple days because it's so addictive easy(I helped motivate Tumblr's SPN fandom to get Jared to win the Portrait Mag contest!). In one way, her getting sick kinda fell on the best time possible, because I don't have school this week and I can spend all my time looking after her. On the other hand, I've got finals in a couple weeks, applications to work on for next year, GISHWHES, my mini big bang to finish, and a myriad of little stuff that needs to be done before the end of the year. But I'm still really glad that I get to be here for her. I'd much rather be here than her be alone. So, there's that.

And that's RL. Thankfully all the nurses here have been so incredibly nice to us both, it's amazing. And our doctor is an angel, literally. So there've definitely been upsides.


Moving into a much less serious note...because everyone knows I love a good meme, and I love my ships to a pretty unhealthy degree, so this is a nice win-win. Boo-yah. Snagged from my girl yappichick

1. Think of up to 20 ships you support. (DX ONLY TWENTY, NOT ENOUGHH)
2. List them using descriptions of the characters involved rather than their names.
3. Have your audience guess as many of the ships as they can.
4. Fandom hints will be given if asked in the comments.

some of these are so cheesy

( I am not surprised at how fast everyone got these, ROTFL )

On a whim, I decided to get an account at AO3. I like it, even if it takes a heck of a lot of getting used to, and, of course, it's nothing like LJ.
I'm kinda surprised I caved, especially after saying never ever again after FF.net. But, I'm pleasantly shocked to see that the handful of fics I've got copied from junerayne already have quite a few hits and some kudos.
So! I can be found here, and I hope to start crossposting everything to LJ and there.

On a side note, does anyone know the code for making a AO3 user on LJ?


Aaaand. Doctor Who. I know everyone else who knows who Neil Gaiman is is probably thrilled at this turn of events, but...I dunno. It was a good episode and is a great return to my idea of Doctor Who standards, but bits of it really bug the heck out of me and make it feel like another show trying to be Doctor Who but without knowing much of anything about Doctor Who. IDK. It bugs me.

( spoilers for sanctuary and DW...much rambly-ness )

So. That's pretty much my thoughts. Um...haha I apologize if this is another explanation!fail...I'm good at those.
Anyway. Am I seeing things in my crazy brain, or might there actually be similarities?

ETA: Ooo I updated the layout + header! :D Check 't out! 

I think sanctuary20in20  is gonna be a lot harder than I'd thought it'd be. *hides in a corner*  It's not that I think it can't be done, it's more like I know it can be done but I'm not sure how/know it'll look pretty horrible.
Annddd..now I really, really wanna work on the TSE piccies but my muse wants to make a Henry/Kate header...I'm so TORN. *sigh* The life of an artist is never easy :P

I caved. I'm starting Farscape even though I haven't finished Andromeda yet. And I'm considering starting my Firefly re-watch too...since, well, y'know it's only a handful of episodes compared to Andromeda and Farscape. Gyah! This is another example of me trying to do too much...

Oh and I'm considering applying at rawr_caps  to cap stuff...
