YayHappyWeekend! (A Post With Plentiful Parantheses)

[daemonluna]

Oh, weekend, I love you.

There was sleeping in. There was visiting--(drakkenfyre, we hope you guys had a good trip back!) and queenzulu and mockingspike are STILL HERE! We made massive amounts of grilled meat for supper (beef ribs are very large, and the new BBQ is awesome), along with tomato salad, potato salad, green lettuce-y salad, corn on the cob and baked beans), played Betrayal at House on the Hill (mockingspike didn't go evil this time, not like usual), and mocked Celebrity Paranormal Project (which is so mock-worthy that it will require its own post later).

Also, queenzulu and I used teh interwebs to research cock rings for a fic she's working on. And then, we all went to get ice cream.

Sadly, it is not even midnight and we are all exhausted. I am old and all boring-adult-like. It comes of working semi-regular hours and getting up mornings. (Though troutkitty has been getting up ungodly early to start work at 5:45. Bleargh.)

My goal of tomorrow and Monday: read some more of the oh, 63 books I have signed out from the library right now and then actually blog about them. (Dear self, having a book blog is not just a convenient place to put more links in lieu of actual content. No love, me. PS, but you could lay up on the procrastinator's guilt a bit. No, no, wait, that didn't mean ignore it completely, you know that will only make the guilt worse... Yeah, welcome to my brain.)

Sleeeeeeep....

Heh. That sounds so familiar.

Yup, welcome to my brain... I'm really very good at creating ongoing projects for myself, and then causing myself guilt and stress for not keeping up with them.

Ditto.

By the way, I keep meaning to ask -- and then feeling like maybe I'd be better off not doing so, but anyway -- what's up with the "shed freak" icons?

Hee. You're one of the few people who've actually asked.

It all came from a really bad story troutkitty and queenzuku were critiquing for their writer's group. The line was "Don't tell so-and-so, shed freak!" It was missing an apostrophe, and supposed to be "she'd freak." But it kind of stuck.... I think it's one of those things where you just had to be there.

We had grandiose visions of creating a shed freak icon movement, though. *g*

Maybe, but I'm all for random in-joke icons. }:-) Thanks for the backstory.

Hey Elis-chan...

It's kinda library-related, but just reminding you that you are on my List of People Who Get a Free Copy of Divalicious to give to the library.

I just have to actually GET them from Tokyopop first :/

But it WILL come, promise! /_\

Eee, that would be awesome... except I may have to do some finangling to get it added. Ever since we had a formal complaint--which is not resulting in anything being pulled off the shelves, by the way--management's being verrrry cautious. I am to stick to graphic novels that are reviewed in Library Journal, Kirkus, etc.

To a certain extent, I understand the caution. But on the other hand, it's just... gyah! If you're going to tell me to go do this, let me actually do it! Especially since there has never been any question about the suitability of the material I've ordered--the books that got complaints predate my involvement.

Anyhow. I digress. I would be thrilled and will argue until I'm blue in the face to get it added.
