Compulsive packrat tendencies to the rescue

Had a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon and evening with much socializing. Got together with friends, watched Moulin Rouge. troutkitty made souffles her bitch. She's wierd, and I love her.

However, this reminded me that I read a really good Moulin Rouge slash fic back when the movie first came out. And. Er. It was funny. And it was probably posted on allslash or rareslash. Doesn't give me a lot to go on, ne? I'm currently converting several hundred meg of old mail from Netscape Mail to Eudora.

Incidentally, after not finding it on CKOS or WWOMB, I googled and ended up at a fic whose summary was something about Christian and Satine's marriage, a year later. (Um, I hate to break it to you, but Satine is DEAD. And that's not a huge spoiler. That's something we find out in the first few minutes of the movie.)

I can just see it.

Christian: Satine, my love, I have something to confess to you. I... I... I think I'm a necrophiliac!

Satine's muldering corpse: [...]

Currently stricken by random bout of insomnia. Damn. It's been a while. Odd how a regular sleep schedule and perpetually getting almost but not quite enough sleep helps that. (I would recommend the former, but not the latter.) Maybe I'll go read for a bit or something. Yeah.

Blergh

After having to reinstall netscape to get at my old email (grrr... importing it into Eudora didn't work), I did find the Moulin Rouge fanfic in question. It's a short little thing involving Christian, the narcoleptic Argentinian, a dance number, and PASSION! (But really, I just like saying "narcoleptic Argentinian.") Unfortunately, I haven't found it online anywhere, so if anybody wants to read it, let me know and I'll email my saved copy to you.

Feeling groggy and vaguely out of sorts after being up 'til four. Fishing through my old email has made me vaguely homesick for fannish involvement. However, I don't really have anything fannish I'm actively passionate about right now. Not anything anybody has actually SEEN, at any rate. (This is Wonderland has been renewed, yay! Reruns don't start until June, though. I missed the pilot.)

Hence the need for some "fandom orphan" icons. I've made some HCL and DS ones... maybe I should post 'em. Feeling vaguely lacklustre about... well, pretty much everything at the moment.
