It Has Fox Demons And People With No Faces And A Really Snarky Girlfriend

HOLY FUCK YEAH. I just wrote a 16 page urban fantasy/slashy romance story in 12 hours that I am not mortally embarassed to turn in to my professor.  I am fucking amazing. And printing the fuck out of shit because I have to have 15 copies to give to my class. 16 FUCKING PAGES OF COHERENT NARRATIVE. Although the end does get a bit schmoopy and I'l probably have to have telyanofcelore  do a beta job on it to make it postable on here. telyanofcelore , you can do that, yeah?

Man, the second I get back from class, I am going to DIE.

Let's Assume I Put A Header Here

Ugh. I fell asleep pretty much the second I got back from class, and I'm just now waking up. I really hate sleeping in the daytime, it always throws my brain horribly out of whack. I wake up all groggy and brain-sticky and too-hot feeling and my body feels all sluggish and wrong and just bleh. HATE. So, since I can't get my brain to turn on and function, here's a meme.

1. Make a list of 5 things you can see without getting up.
   
   
   
   • My roommate, who is not freaking the fuck out about interviews for the first time in days
   • our stolen sofa that we can't figure out how to get rid of (it took 5 people and some very creative geometry to get it in here to begin with)
   • My Sephiroth plushie. He looks pissy, and it amuses me.
   • my mini-fridge, which is piled up on top with boxes and (clean) dishes and non-perishable junk food stuffs
   • Patricia McKillip's Riddlemaster trilogy. Rereading for the third time - maybe this go around I'll actually finish it.
2. How do you style your hair?
   Just started trying out Chagrin Valley shampoo bars and they are love and awesome. After that is a vinegar rinse and a metric fuckton of Suave conditioner (yay cheap), and then I let it airdry and wear it down. Second day it gets lightly brushed to get rid of all te fuzzy that escaped my sleep braids, third day (if I'm going for a third non-wash day) it gets worn up in braids or (once I learn how!) a bun.
    
3. What are you wearing now?
   My Wicked Tinkers t-shirt that I got at one of their concerts a few years ago. Everyone always thinks it's a Wicked shirt, which depending on my mood is really funny or really annoying. Also jeans.
    
4. What’s your occupation?
   College student! Also I work part time at the calling center, calling Stanford alumni and begging them to give us money. It is fun times.
    
5. Do you nap a lot?
   God no. Even when I was a little kid naps fucked with my head. Only if I'm so exhausted I'm about to keel over, and then I bitch about it.
    
6. Who was the last person you hugged?
   No idea? I'm not that touchy-feely with anyone at school. Probably my dad, when I was leaving at the end of break.
    
7. What's your current fandom/obsession/addiction?
   Politics fandom - not even the slash - although it is there and it is beautiful and I love it so - but just the whole thing of what's going on in DC and what people are doing and what the president is saying and all the lovely pundits and their ideas and Raaaaahm my sloe-eyed congressional vixen.rahmbamarama  is probably to blame for this. Also SGA - lots of reading, not so much writing in there. And comics fandom of the Cap/IronMan and Boostle and Tim/Kon/Bart variety, which is mostly where I'm writing these days even if I'm reading and fanning in a lot of other pools.
    
8. What was the last thing you ate today?
   Chicken strips and fries at TAP, because I knew I was probably going to sleep through dinner (and I did!), but as soon as I'm done with this I'm going to go eat one of my pilfered scones and some cheese or something, because STARVING.
    
9. What books are on your to-read list?
   Riddlemaster trilogy - every time I read it I get about 100 pages further, but I've never finished it yet, even though it's fantastic. Also I have to read Mrs Dalloway and The Hours for my lit class in the next couple weeks. Now that I've finally gotten my Neil Gaiman kink on, I really need to read American Gods.
    
10. What websites do you always visit when you go online?
    Every time I turn my computer on, I have a list of things I have to go through and check: hotmail, school mail, livejournal flist, dailykos, fivethirtyeight, like five different web comics, and then the ljs of various people I'm not actually friends with but find interesting or amusing or awesome, like copperbadge .
     
11. What was the last thing you bought?
    A bunch of groceries at Trader Joe's. Expensive, but worth it for being nommable and good and for the generally nice feeling of having stuff in my fridge.
     
12. What are you listening to right now?
    Countdown with Keith Olbermann. I love him and I want to have his angry liberal babies. Heeeee. Also 2 Atoms In A Molecule by Noah and the Whale - I heard it in a McShep amv last week and it got horribly stuck in my head.
     
13. What do you think about before you go to bed at night?
    Most of the time, I entertain myself while falling asleep by writing silly, cracked-out, pointlessly fluffy canon-ignoring fanfiction in my head, the kind of stuff I like to think about but would never actually want to write (mostly because it wouldn't make any sense outside of my head).
     
14. What was the last CD you bought?
    I...have no idea. I haven't physically bought music in so long. I haven't even had a CD player since, like, junior year of high school...maybe senior year? So the last CD I bought was probably Awake, by L'arc en Ciel.
     
15. What is your favourite weather, and why?
    65-70 degrees, clear skies, a little bit of a breeze - lying on the grass and reading weather. I can't deal with temp extremes in either direction.
    
16. If you could play any musical instrument, which one would you play?
    I used to play the flute (so badly!), and the handbells (not badly!), and that was pretty cool, but I'd really like to be able to play either the harp or the dulcimer. Because I am an enormous Celtic-music geek.
     
17. How are you?
    Urgh, not very awake, and starving, and stressing out over the exam I have tomorrow. WHY DO THE SHORT WEEKS ALWAYS FAIL?
     
18. What’s something you'd like to say to someone right now?
    I would like to tell my roommate that she is driving me crazy with her freaking out and fighting with her boyfriend and crying and just generally being whiny and self-absorbed and annoying. But that would be so incredibly not cool of me, so no.
     
19. What's one of your favorite movies?
    Iron Man - I think it's pretty damn close to being exactly what I want out of a superhero movie. Lots of eye candy, lots of action, lots of fucking FUN, but with a nice dark edge to remind us that hey, Tony is crazy and fucked-up you know.
