Audrey can take a hint. )

Sooo, would anyone actually read a fic in which Audrey from Haven attempts to find a place to rent and every place she looks at turns out to have either a curse/weird stuff/creepy stuff/bad juju, etc attached to it?

With a fair amount of Audrey/Nathan partner-y goodness?

Anyone?
Made by <user name=cleo>
I like Haven. I like Audrey and Nathan and the PARTNERSHIP. It's got a great setting and yeah, I like it.

It's definitely one of those shows that you shouldn't expect too much from and it will always satisfy you.

As I've seen around the place, here are some snippets from my current works-in-progress.

I truly have no idea when I'm going to be able to work on them, but here they are.

we'll build a little home, just meant for two )

So, I'm deliberately not looking at my Big Bang for the next 48 hours in order to approach it later with new eyes and do some editing.

Instead I'm just reading a lot and spending far too much time on tumblr.

You know what's an amazing time-suck? Going to delicious and typing in a favourite pairing and then reading fic and gazing at picspams. I'm currently in a Mulder/Scully mood and there are over 2,000 entries on delicious for them.

I'm thinking a re-watch is in order. I've totally forgotten most of the mytharc stuff. I might skip the cancer-arc though, that seemed to go on for too long.

However, my all time favourite episode is probably Quagmire with Big Blue and the Ahab speech.

I've always wanted a peg-leg - Spoilers )

I, for some reason, don't have any X-Files icons, so Ripley and Hicks will have to do. Woohoo, Aliens!
Made by <user name=cleo>
Ha! Well, it's essentially done. Just a couple hundred words short of 20,000 but that will be solved in the next week or so. I just wanted to get it sent off.

So tired of this story.

Need sleepy.

And food.

Preferably chocolate.

Oh, by the way. If you would all be so kind, I see that there is now the option to post comments left in my LJ to places like Twitter and Facebook? I'd really appreciate it if you didn't do that with any comments left in my LJ. I'm not altogether sure I want to have a link between here and Facebook.

Thank you!

Things making me happy.

1. It's not raining.
2. I'm actually writing Big Bang and it isn't painful.
3. It's Wednesday!
4. I'm making spaghetti and meatballs for dinner tonight with some amazing looking meatballs I got from our fabulous butcher.
5. I met the most lovely black and white Great Dane today outside said butcher's. I'm five foot one and this guy's head came to my chest. Gorgeous!
6. Gary Oldman, Michael Fassbender, Benedict Cumberbatch, Colin Firth, and Ralph Fiennes are going to be in a film version of Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. My life is complete. I adore the one with Alec Guinness.

Happy Wednesday!

ETA. Spock has just started gossiping in my story. WTF? I hadn't really planned on him doing that. Silly Vulcan.

Okay, this one was going around a few days ago so...

Ask me my Top Five Whatevers. Fannish or otherwise. Any top fives. Doesn't matter what, really. And I will answer them in a comment

Seriously, anything. Ask.

Oh, my good God, could today be any more boring? I want to go hoooommmme. And cook dinner. Seriously. That is all I want to do. I want to go and cook a nice spaghetti sauce. With red onions.

But, anyway, look at this picture I found! I seriously think these two were my first 'bad' boy/'good' girl ship. It's because of Molly Ringwald that I have always wanted red hair.



rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling, down, down, down.

I just hit 10,000 words on my Big Bang! Thank freakin' goodness!

I know, only halfway, but baby steps. Baby steps.

And 28 Weeks Later is on tonight and I'm thinking about watching it. Is it worth the time? I loved the first one.

*sigh*

I've written 500 words of a Ariadne/Robert Inception!fic.

Instead of McCoy/Chapel.

*facePALM*

I think I will do my best to write at least 1000 words of Big Bang and then reward myself with writing the new shiny stuff. Right? Right.

I'm going to go make dinner now.

Inception!

Finally saw Inception. And in case you were wondering? Yes. It is that good.

And now back to my Big Bang!

Who's got two thumbs, is supposed to go to London this weekend for a wedding, and has the beginnings of a cold which includes throbbing temples, an unhappy nose and can't seem to find a comfortable temperature to exist in?

This girl.

Ow.

Soooo making amazing restorative chicken soup with massive amounts of garlic tonight. I have no money whatsoever, but I was really looking forward to going to London this weekend.

And it's Wednesday! So, not being one to break tradition, have some pictures!

Loverlies )

Happy Wednesday!

Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: They are not mine.

Oh, dear God, that last episode was AMAZING! Hooo, boy!

I actually yelled at one point, 'Oh, for God's sake, just kiss him already!' My husband choked on his tea. ;D

What I think is the best part of this series is how London itself feels like a character in it's own right. They're going into amazing places and I hope if the series continues, they do some of the more moody and cerebral stories.

I now have an urge to write fic featuring Molly in the aftermath... *slaps hands* No! Must finish Star Trek Big Bang. Must finish Star Trek Big Bang. Must finish Star Trek Big Bang. Must finish Star Trek Big Bang.

Yeah.
Made by <user name=cleo>
Where is all the Red Eye fic? There is nothing new out there that I can find! Grr.

Do NOT make me write you!

Especially do not make me write the angsty, moody Red Eye/Inception fic in which Lisa Reisert meets Robert Fischer on a plane to Paris. I DON'T HAVE THE TIME!

In other news, because people on my friendslist kept mentioning them, I made pierogies this evening. I made a huge mess of the kitchen, but they tasted quite nice. :D

Music to Poetry Meme

Put your music player on shuffle. The first lines of twenty songs = a poem; the first line of the twenty-first song is the title.

seem like just yesterday

sick of all that we have to be in this life,
a falling star fell from your heart and landed in my eye,
stop making the eyes at me,
how can it be permissible?

once I had a love and it was a gas,
wind me up,
look, i'm standing naked before you,
don't get me wrong.

i've done this before,
my moon, my man, so changeable and,
a slow strangle with your feet on the floor,
i'm not lovin' you, way i wanted to.

so, she says it's time she goes,
sometimes i feel like i wanna leave this place for good,
tear the roof off the sucker,
it's coming up.

will you tell me when the light's are fadin'?
i've fallen out of favour,
oh lord, have mercy on me,
hello, i love you.

Hee! Happy Thursday!

Go forth and rec for that pairing you think everyone should try at least once!

I'm doing Lisa Reisert/Jackson Rippner from Red Eye. My most favorite of dirtybadwrong pairings. Most of the fic I'm reccing comes from a while ago, if anyone knows of anything recent, do let me know!
