notes to self

[luciazephyr]

1. Shave slowly. This is about the sixth time you gashed open your back ankle.

2. Remember pale yellow. Might be a good paint color for the walls of the living rooms.

3. Open RtF every day and write some. Some progress is better than none even though you and one other person are the only ones who care about the story, but still, you should finish it at least.

4. Punch LJ for not giving you your damn notifs. Again.

5. Don't bitchslap people for not knowing a drabble is exactly 100 words. This is your pet peeve, no one else's.

To the contrary! Five is the pet peeve of many, many people. I include myself in that group.

Oh thank god. But yanno when someone posts a really nice fic that's adorable in a small fandom, you don't generally want to comment with "RAWR :GNASHING TEETH: YOUR FANNISH TERMINOLOGY SUX" and such.

Do we have psychic injuries or did I just happen to get a big cut on the back of my ankle when I shaved a while back too.

... Okay it's the latter but.

[lucia-tanaka.livejournal.com]

Dude, I get myself in the same spot so often... I am impatient and cannot see due to glasses so I get out of the shower and go, "why does my foot feel wet-- oh." and then go tape damp paper towels to my ankle. I fail at shaving.

[crowbared.livejournal.com]

I didn't want to bleed all over my bathroom, so the closet thing I could grab was a wet washwrap around my ankle. ... Which is why now I usually take small baths when I shave, rather than showers. I'm so clumsy when I try it showering.

But you know what's annoying as well? Getting them right behind your knee/in between your thigh and calf/you know what I mean. ... Which I end up cutting trying to shave OTHER parts, then magically end up getting cut there.

[lucia-tanaka.livejournal.com]

I usually only shave up to my knee unless I know I'll need my full leg for an outfit. If I did my whole leg constantly... god, people would think I'm a cutter.

[crowbared.livejournal.com]

I shave everything... not so constantly since it's winter and I'm wearing pants most of the time. Like you said, unless people are gonna see my legs, I have hairy legs for the winter.

Because you had to know that.

ALSO I FIND IT IRONIC THAT JUST AS I'M TALKING TO YOU HERE I've been considering switching who I'm apping to capeandcowl from Nick (from L4D) to Sweetwater.

[lucia-tanaka.livejournal.com]

C&C is supposed to be awesome. I used to stalk Tank Girl all the time. She was easily the best RPer ever.


:sniffle: I miss Sweetwater and Hal. 8(

[crowbared.livejournal.com]

It is! I've been there a while--I play there as their Cole MacGrath.

Me too. Don't worry bb, WE WILL HAVE OUR DAY. Also, besides the game, want me to let you know if I slap Sweetwater up on dear_mun or anything?

Now I just gotta think of AWESOME SUPERPOWERS for Sweetwater. How about whining at the speed of light,

[lucia-tanaka.livejournal.com]

Which still means nothing to me. :lacks a PS3 okay, god, cries:

If our MGS RP kicks off (I DON'T HAVE TO KEEP IT SECRET ANYMORE BTW HEH) I will nag you for a while about it.

Maybe he has a power of exasperated persuasion- as he whinges, people get desperate to shut him up so they give into whatever he wants? It'd work less on more patient people.

[crowbared.livejournal.com]

B-BUT I JUST WANTED TO SHOW OFF. /ICON

Okay, awesome. I'mma slap him on dear_mun tommorow or something (when I'll start his app) and post in my journal like HEY HEY HEY COME LOOK AT THIS COOL GUY.

Oooh, THAT'S COOL ACTUALLY. Kinda like... those persuasive powers one person has. But that's more along the lines of "BUY THIS PIECE OF CRAP I'M SELLING YOU" and people feel compelled to buy it, and it's more of a willpower thing.

c'mon hobomama.maybe the roleplay...maybe it's made o' chocolate.

[crowbared.livejournal.com]

my thoughts exactly.

[tarastara.livejournal.com]

1. i do that too and still have scabs
5. WHOA. mind is blown

[thene]

1. I HATE SHAVING, I AM SO FUCKING CLUMSY AND CUT MY ANKLES EVERY DAMN TIME, AND WHAT IS THE FREAKING POINT NO REALLY.

3. SO not true. RtF has MUCH LOVE and also FANART. I know how you feel, though - I am so stuck on writing right now argh I feel bad for my Secret Santa recipient. :(

5. Mm, I like playing with drabble-drabbles - exactly 100 words - but I guess people (me included, way too often) reach for it as a term for any sub-1000 word fic because there's no other convenient word there. Do wonder if there's a polite way to do terminology bitchslaps, though.

[lucia-tanaka.livejournal.com]

1. Your legs feel awesome afterward?

3. ... I FORGOT ABOUT THAT. Heh. I'm not doing SS, so I totally forgot about it lol.

5. It's called A FICLET FFS! :rage blackout:
