TEN PROMPTS THAT I AM SERIOUSLY GOING TO TRY TO FINISH THIS TIME OKAY GO.

ps NO BRAIN WE DON'T NEED TO START LUNA MOTH, WHAT ARE YOU THINKING.

Didn't post this morning or last night d/t going to the doctor and switching to Celexa (mostly because of the primary side effect of $37 co-pay, although I was also not enamored with the way I would take deep sighing breaths for no reason and also the headaches and RAM failure and leg twitching ... plus a sudden craving for nicotine above and beyond OH GOD WORK IS CRAZY I WANT A CIGARETTE, which was very unnerving) which means I am going off the Effexor. Did you know that Effexor is actually kind of famous for being difficult to get off of? Twitchy bugs, so awesome. ._.

I'm doing better today but I am still not feeling 100%, or even 50%. (Waking up this morning was epic, in the 'it's eleven am and the dog is giving me the "dude, wtf" look and I still don't want to get out of bed' way.) Mother has solemnly prescribed essential oils in lotion including frankincense, clove and bergamot and has also procured double bergamot Earl Grey tea for consumption by crazy child. Crazy child has reflected that it can't very well hurt and likes bergamot anyway, so has equally solemnly applied lotion all day and is drinking tea. Crazy child is also seriously considering putting sticky notes everywhere that say things like I AM GOING TO GET BETTER as a note to self.

(Yes, I was only on it for two weeks. But apparently I got used to it again really quickly.)

I was a little annoyed at the doctor's office because I got there for an 11am appointment and didn't get seen until like, 11:50 and then I had to go get Mom's meds at Safeway and fill the Celexa at Walmart (I have no idea what unholy relationship Walmart and the drug company have, and frankly I'm not asking about it as long as I can pay $4 for a month's supply of crazy pills). I did however get the rest of a knit row done on Seraphim and most of a purl row done! It's beginning to look like a pattern, I think. I still want to die every time I think "I only have fifty more rows to go!" Oh well, I forge bravely on. One stitch at a time, sweet Jesus.

A-anyway. Now that your eyes are glazed over from my boring issues, I am delighted to report that ickaimp is a good person and wrote more awesome involving Kagami being clueless. :D :D :D

I really want to write an awful fic where Akashi has nightmares and nothing really happens but he's like, Wow, I have people again. (Boukenger won a cookie for actually having a reasonable excuse for BoukenRed's retarded tendency to go HEY I SHOULD GO ON A SUICIDE MISSION IT'LL BE FUN.) Hmm.

I woke up this morning thinking about knitting projects I want to start. Like the Luna Moth shawl. Or maybe a plain heavy one. Or hats. Or patterned scarves. Or a felted bag. Or something like that. I even have yarn for most of them.

Then I rolled over, gave Seraphim the stinkeye and did a couple of repeats. Arrrgh I don't need another project until I finish Seraphim, and I should actually start on Clementine (and, er, finishing the spinning for Clementine >___>) after that, but motivation for the Shawl That Never Ends is lacking.

• 18:24 I has a precious +_+ It is from Meimi. It is a picture from the JE store of Aiba pawing at Jun. IT IS MY PRECIOUSSS. #

Okay, what the fuck, Wordpress, I finally manage to stalk Server Dude and I go to pull it up to describe what it's doing -- and it's behaving again! I give up. Considering that my paid account expires here in five days I really need to make up my mind if I'm moving to Wordpress or not. (I should! Ah, but I am lazy! Q_Q But I am also le broke. It is a problem. A problem that will doubtless be more or less fixed by me spending an exciting weekend trying to figure out how to get userpics to work on Wordpress, argh.)

Today was totally epic in the Eventually This Will Be Funny way (and in the Cannot Actually Talk About On LJ way), although it was considerably brightened by a letter from nyonyo with a photo from the JE shop with Aiba pawing at Jun's shoulder and Jun pretending he doesn't know him. IT IS THE CUTEST THING EVER, I KEPT LOOKING AT IT AT WORK TO REMIND MYSELF THERE WAS YET THINGS THAT WERE GOOD AND PURE AND SPARKLY IN THIS WORLD. She made a super cute card, too! ♥

( behold! my boofer precious  )

Re Dekaranger: I would be slightly more ashamed of thinking I'D HIT THAT after the "Boss is Badass" episode but clearly so did would Swan-san, and I have my suspicions about Jasmine. Also the dude who did the suit acting for it has an ass nearly as godly as the dude who did Kabuto and Kiva. *___________* I'm shallow, okay.

*peers at fic* Now, honey, you know if this ends up about being How Tendou's Life Sucks, we're going to have to have a little talk. Also, it is harder than one might at first think to write a coherent description of someone cooking. I'm always doing things like reading back and realizing Kagami is trying to defend himself and has not, for all appearances, put the dishes down yet. And someitmes Kagami really is a klutz, but he probably would not drop an entire pile of plates. I hope.

ITEM: Someone who is NOT ME needs to do the one where Natsuki has her period for the first time and Masumi has no idea what to do. Bonus points for him trying to be calm anyway and completely freaking out as soon as he calms her down.

Oh, golly! Full Moon is Saturday. >____< I'm not looking forward to the rest of the week, not by a bushelful.

by the way, does anybody know a way to take old tags off Semagic short of a complete uninstall/reinstall? I've got a lot of old tags that I want to get rid of and it won't remove them, even if I update from the sever. -- never mind! it's taglist.txt in the program folder. I r reel smrt somtiems.

MEG: Oliver, go get Grandma! Grandma's home! Go get her! [NOTE: This is a command Oliver actually understands.]
OLIVER: *blank look*
MEG: Go over there and say hi to Grandma! Go say hi! Go over to Grandma's!
OLIVER: I understand not your strange human language, petty mortal.
CECIL: Go get your stick.
OLIVER: *FWOOSH* *muffledly, around Chuck-it that had been lying about thirty feet away* Ftick, 'addy.
CECIL: Go get your ball too.
OLIVER: *FWOOSH* 'All, 'addy. Frow 'all now?
MEG: YOU STINKING BRAT-FACE OF A MUTZEL.

( watching the boukenger movie in all of its glorious lack of sense and gratitious pool scenes with Natsuki sitting on Sakura's lap and large awesome fights and explosions designed for the big screen )

I was going to get home and watch Dekaranger and eat the rest of my chocolate with a sullen expression on my face, but I ended up sleeping for two hours instead. Which is almost the same, right!

Highlights of my day: "It smells like crap in here! Why does it smell like sh--- OH MY GOD AUUUGHHHH." Followed by repeatedly chanting I DON'T WANT TO CLEAN THIS UP and slinking reluctantly forth with disinfectant and gloves.

Then I spent a significant amount of time after I was supposed to be off dealing with a new caregiver (easy -- mostly just running around the entire building screaming WHERE THE HELL DID THEY PUT THE TRAINING VIDEOSSSS and rummaging for t-shirts) and a resident's visiting dog (not so easy - poor thing was half-crazy with nerves and excitement and yapped constantly). And then I went to ECX. And sulked. And knitted. And came home and actually wrote a little, and then spent an hour in the tub.

( I think this might go somewhere! Kagami traumatizes Tendou )

I'd watch Dekaranger but I actually don't have enough brain left! This is very serious. ._.

I pulled myyy shoooouuullldeeer hauling in Cecil's anniversary present for Mom and it was really heavy and now it huuuuuuuurts Q_Q (Not from him to her. From her to him. It's a Coleman hammock and very nice but the son of a bitch is a heeeeavvvy mother. Q_Q)

Truly, this is the shawl that never ends. It doesn't help that the row I just finished has 315 stitches or something horrible like that and will have close to 110 more by the time I bind off. Uhhh Q_Q no! I will forge bravely on! and on! and continue on after that! I'm starting the real lace part after this next row, which makes me extremely nervous.

On ep 11 of Dekaranger. I am happy to say that the Ban/Hoji continues to be completely subtle, what with the way Hoji bitches Ban out for falling for a civilian and the way that Hoji about tackleglomps his Academy friend and Ban goes >:O!!! and pulls him away, and the way that Ban is still calling him Partner and Hoji is still automatically growling Don'tcallmepartner at him. ;___;♥ It's kind of nice to be shipping with fandom for once after Boukenger. (Would it have killed BoukenRed to actually paid attention to one person at a time? .____.) I have finally gotten to the point where I can tell by the dialogue when I have to look up and pay attention because the fight is almost over. It's like watching TeniPuri. (I still don't understand how a freaking tennis match should take three episodes and five special moves to resolve.)

Flinkie: http://zip.4chan.org/m/src/1215829170305.jpg Sentai: because you can never have enough leather stretch pants. Ever.
Meg: THAT'S KAMEN RIDER, YOU TWERP
Flinkie: IT'S STILL SENTAI
Flinkie: I WAS COMMENTING ON THE PIC geez
Meg: no it's not
Flinkie: how is it not?!
Meg: it's tokusatsu
Meg: but sentai is specifically the hero team
Flinkie: ah.
Flinkie: and that's not a team?
Meg: Kamen Rider has team up with past Riders
Flinkie: There's a dozen of them!
Flinkie: TEAM
Flinkie: SENTAI
Flinkie: SEE
Meg: but it's always about two or three dudes on bikies
Meg: but they don't identify as a unit!
Flinkie: FINE
Flinkie: YOU CAN BE RIGHT
Flinkie: girls. geez
Flinkie: I am so getting my ass beat when I move there.)
Meg: Kamen Riders are always like, I don't know, special ops dudes? and Sentai are always a unit
Meg: kicked, at least.
Flinkie: ahhhh.
Meg: so the Riders you know, identify as being a Rider, and Sentai identify as being part of a group
Flinkie: okay, fine. Tokusatsu.
Flinkie: Pitnicker.
Meg: *with dignity* Excuse me for being a nerd.

• 16:30 Q_Q this is the shawl that doesn't end! #

I wish I had a video mp3 player. ._. I could be outside and watching Dekaranger until my brains dripped out my ears!

actually, can't you hack DSes into playing video? that would also work!

so tired of working on shawl ;______; never ending shawl is never ending!

*suspiciously* Dekaranger isn't going to be the same as Boukenger in claiming that there's a pairing and then veering off again, is it? Red isn't going to be catting around all his teammates and some of the minor characters and then back again, is he? Because I reallllllly want DekaRed and DekaBlue to start punching each other out and then roll around the floor a little.

I just washed Gingetsu! I feel weirdly accomplished. Of course as soon as he dries I'll see mummified bug bits I missed, but that can't be helped ._. At least all the dust and bird shit is off! Mind, since we have a dirt driveway and there is massive road construction like, everywhere, it is a total exercise in futility. But at least I was outside soaking up vitamin D and exercising. Also the dog was lurking carefully just out of hose reach. Curses. He has leeeearrrned +_+

Urgh, Auntie Meg is going to have to post her famous essay on WHY YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG again soon, it appears. HEY GUYS, GO BUY A COPY OF 'THE ELEMENTS OF STYLE' AND TATTOO IT ON YOUR HEART. Although actually some of the Super Sentai fic is pretty good, I'm just really really picky.

...I appear to be shoveling my desk off. Am I sick? Should I go to the doctor? D-Do you think it's fatal? Next thing you know I'll finally be backing up everything on DVD! (Which I haven't done for like a year and should be done soon because I get paranoid about fire season. There's a standing instruction to my mother along the lines of GRAB THE YELLOW DRIVE. I mean, I could eventually build up the mp3s again and the graphic files, but the yellow drive is ten years of writing. ...which I should back up today, come to think of it.)

edit: .... I should worry more about being the type of person with DVDs of tokusatsu series and boyband shows, Pokemon figures, character keychains, jazz CDs, craft wire, bobbins of singles I need to ply, random knitting supplies and purple D&D dice on her desk, right? And pirate bandages. And chocolate. And ... *sigh*

AMY: OW FUCK OW FUCK OW FUCK OW. I was pulling a water bottle out of the cupboard and one of the mugs fell out and HIT ME ON THE MOUTH.
MEG: ....I shouldn't be laughing, should I.
AMY: no.
MEG: I'm laughing really hard.
AMY: FUCK YOU TOO

As expected I may never return to a normal sleep schedule ever again! :|b I foresee a lot of Friday night Tylenol PMs in my future. >_<

( ep 46-49 of boukenger )

o/ that was awesome! now do I start Dekaranger or do I want to watch the movies?

I've worn them three days in a row. >_< PAIIIIIN.

Today starts two pills! Uhhhh I may never sleep again. D:

( boukenger and kabuto shit )

i am working a normal shift tonight! Tears of joy.

I kind of want to know if the giant robots are actually robots or if it's some poor bastard in a rubber suit. That would be the best Mythbusters or Behind the Scenes episode ever.

• 00:27 yeeeaaaaahhhhh red and silver are also kind of gay T_T #
• 21:19 RED YOU ARE SUCH A SLUT T_T #
• 21:47 okay Black methodically putting all the peas from his fried rice onto Red's bowl is like the cutest thing in the history of ever T_T #

HEY RED MAKE UP YOUR MIND, IT'S HARD TO THINK OF FIC IF YOU'RE JUST BEING GAY WITH ALL OF YOUR TEAM, AND RANDOM DUDES, AND EIJI.

BY THE WAY, EIJI, YOU ARE A PRICK. GET OVER YOURSELF. although you are cute and grumpy.

asfdkjalfdl;

I'd be less annoyed if I hadn't spent like an hour trying to find fic and realizing that none of the boukenger related comms bother to freaking tag their shit. =_____= I'd check finalauraburst but it is late and I am extremely tired.

• 01:19 uhhhhhh Red ends up being kind of gay with a lot of people amirite T_T #
• 18:09 I suppose that 'Joyful We Adore Thee' is better than the Boukenger theme to be stuck in my head. >_< #
• 22:38 Eiji really IS a pirck T_T #
