So that I can get out of the snarky attitude that suddenly hit about an hour ago...
1) Another NaNo down, with the epilogue left to go.
2) ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) wolfish_cat should be back this week. *clings to her*
3) Another season of Merlin is likely.
4) 1/2 of the 2 most stressful holidays is dealt with.
5) All my writing for the next month is done!
5.1) Firefox tabs all cleared away for a new gathering of tabs starting the first
5.2) Reading list -
* HD_Holidays
* Snapelyholidays
* ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/community.gif) daily_deviant's Kinky Kristmas
* lupin_snape's Snupin Santa
* Camelot Solstice
* Harry_Holidays
* HP_Yule_Balls
(there are probably more as well, but OMG, isn't that enough?) |

Gasoline Days by Josei Asakura - X-Factor (Age of Apocalypse AU) Rictor/Shatterstar rating: R
Summary: Even now, in this place they'd called home for so long, that's how it always began - tentative, never quite certain, even though it always ended up the same way. |

[Nov. 27th, 2009|09:05 am] |
Yesterday was one of the best holiday's I've had in years. The boys were relatively well behaved, the food was yummy, and I hosted at LOD for the entire 4 hours they were open. *boogies*
I didn't say it yesterday, but I'm thankful for my family and friends who make my life a good place to be. <3's everyone! |

Let's see--
1000 words of NaNo today. I'm at least a day behind as far as wordcount goes. Very frustrating. But I am getting there.
Gaming machine attacked by toxic malware today, so I lost at least an hours worth of time, and had a bit of a fit trying to get the bloody thing *off* my computer. *sighs* Gone, now, but really not a happy thing.
For those of you who have followed my family issues with my mother's side of the family--good thanksgiving this year. There were only eight of us total, so it was nice and quiet, which means no huge blowups. |

| Glee & etc. |
[Nov. 26th, 2009|11:04 am] |
I have not yet seen this week's episode, but: has anyone else found themselves just recording Glee and then fast-forwarding through it to (mostly) watch only the musical numbers? The actual "plots" have generally become deeply embarrassment (and otherwise) squick inducing for me, as much as I love the music.
While I'm talking about squick-inducing things, TCM is running a Fred Astaire marathon today, and Swing Time is on. I love this movie, not least for the completely awesome white dress with gorgeous full skirt that Ginger Rogers wears when she dances on the stairs with Fred. However! I believe that this movie is also the one which has Fred dancing in blackface. *facepalm* When I fell in love with this movie as a child, I didn't know any better, but now? Ick.
And while I'm here, I'd like to wish all who celebrate it a very Happy Thanksgiving! |

| Fic: Le Ténébreux (Severus Snape, R) |
[Nov. 25th, 2009|07:04 pm] |
Title: Le Ténébreux
Author: lesyeuxverts
Characters: Severus Snape, Lily Evans
Rating: R
Warnings: character death
Themes/kinks chosen: symphorophilia
Word Count: 1,095
Summary: " Je suis le ténébreux,- le Veuf, - l'inconsolé, Le Prince d'Aquitaine à la tour abolie: Ma seule étoile est morte, et mon luth constellé Porte le soleil noir de la Mélancolie."
Author's notes: Huge thanks to bewarethesmirk for the beta, and thanks to the folks at the slashretreat_dc for the brainstorming help! I was heavily inspired by Nerval's El Desdichado, and this work owes a great deal to that poem (although I was very nearly distracted by the fact that he kept a pet lobster … but I managed to finish this in spite of that, so all credit goes to Nerval!)

Good news: We get to leave work 3 hours early. *\o/*
Bad news: It wasn't announced until I had started my experiment. I'll be lucky to leave an hour early.
Things could be worse, though.
Hope all of you who are traveling have a safe trip! I'm going down for dinner with the fam. My only contribution will be wine, and probably helping to finish with the cooking. If I don't get to post tomorrow, Happy Thanksgiving. ♥ |

RL is crazy right now, so that why it's late. On the good side, there's two picspams instead of one. On the bad side, I'm only up to 20k on Nano. It's like last year, I'll write like crazy in the last day/week-end. It looks like it's over, but I'm not giving up until 23h59 the 30 November.
In this one, Tony realizes he's not really okay with an open relationship, and McGee plays with his feeling to push him to say the word 'commitment'.

| The Prisoner Remake? |
[Nov. 23rd, 2009|10:23 am] |

Dear flist: I have 6 hours of The Prisoner sitting on my DVR at home, along with however many other hours of TV I normally watch. I will not get to watch it until I get back, at which point I will have many other things I could spend my time on.
My question is, as someone who has never seen the original, is the remake worth it? It's got Ian McKellan, who almost makes it worth it in and of himself for me. However, I've been hearing not-so-good things about the remake, albeit from fans of the original, to the point where I'm not sure even Sir Ian will be able to save it. Should I bother trying, or just delete from the DVR unseen? |
