Way back when...
Dec. 2nd, 2003 02:58 amI've been having issues with my computer. a partial Windows reinstall later, some things are all better, and some new things are giving me grief. Whee. (Not to mention the still looking for a job thing. Don't get me started.)
Anyhow, in the darkest depths of my hard drive, I turned up a recs page I started about a year and a half ago. So I'm potentially going to finish that at some point in the not so distant future.
And I decided to start at the beginning, with some anime fanfic. That was how I ended up re-reading Lemon Sherbert. Bwaha. Y'know what? It's still really funny. You may end up a wee bit confused if you don't have a general idea who and what the main characters from Ranma and Sailor Moon are. And possibly Oh My Goddess. (Cameos and minor roles from everything under the sun including KOR, El Hazard, Futaba-kun Change, Bubblegum Crisis, Dr. Who, Here is Greenwood, Nuku-Nuku, etc.)
Basically, it's this rambling meta-fic parody thing where the author very shortly ends up tied to a chair and spends the whole fic that way while characters go evil, run amuck, plot to steal all the world's ice cream (Dark Queen Skuld) or collect all three orgasm crystals to become the living Kama Sutra (Dark Queen Urd). As for Dark Queen Belldandy, she just wants enough magical power that she can cast a spell more complicated than fixing a hem without passing out. (Incidentally, the "lemon" in the title? Yeah, there's smutty bits. But they're funny. So there.) Just don't read while consuming food or drink or it may end up all over the monitor.
On a completely unrelated note, no really, I swear, we made rum balls today. The recipe calls for a CUP AND A HALF of rum. Granted, that's spread out over five dozen rum balls, but still. And yea, there was much quoting a la Pirates of the Caribbean and Gollum-Smeagle, both. ("But why is all the rum gone?? You're RUINING it! Stupid hobbitses!") Needless to say, I don't think it runied anything at all. Yum.
