Mom is totally my favouritest person in the world right now.

You look stressed. Let's go get ice cream.

<3

I must be tired. I keep looking around fanfiction.net for good, new undiscovered stories in fandoms that I'm interested in, but don't follow all that closely. Guess what? There aren't any. Oh, my eyes. Why are there so many Constantine Mary Sues? What is the fascination with OC's and Ian from National Treasure? Why did I even bother looking for League of Extraordinary Gentlemen fic?

...I just remembered that theithurtsmybrain fics are due soon. I should maybe think about starting that.

I'm going to try and pound out a schedule for the colloquium so I can present it at the meeting tomorrow. I'm also going to try and fit everyone in on Saturday so we don't have only 4 presenters for each day.

Helga? Wot?

Sorry, I meant Hilda fic. That would be hot.

God, I'm tired. I wish I was plump sometimes.

Bah. I'm quite put out that I've put on a bit more weight recently- lack of exercise becaus eof the stupid ankle, eating crap because of stress, hormones, and did I mention stress?

I can't wait until my ankle heals. I need to get out walking and, one the roads are good, riding my bike again. I need to get ready for slow pitch. :)

Just don't eat (but drink water! Don't destroy your kidneys!). Seems to work for me. If I don't eat, then I lose weight, which is why I have to eat all the bloody time.

Sorry, I shouldn't encourage you to not eat. The proper response should have been to go on the South Beach Dieteat in moderation.

I find that I should either chew gum, or be doing something with my hands. Staying occupied is a big deal for me and losing weight.

Also, exercise. Which should be getting easier once the ankle is a bit more certain. I haven't used my crutches at all since Thursday, but my ankle gets really sore at night because of it.

Guess what? There aren't any.

This surprises you? Even if there are good fics on ff.net (there has to be, statistically), they're buried so deep among all the crap that no one will ever find them. They're secret good fics. Very, very secret.

Not really, no. Just more surprised by the amount of sheer crap that's there. It's one of those moments when I realize that I shouldn't worry about the quality of my writing, and just post stuff anyway because it's bound to be just as good as the fic there.

A look around ff.net really can be a confidence boost, can't it? Some of the stuff there just makes you think that the only reason they haven't given you the Nobel Prize yet is that they're waiting till you're a bit older - so you can look more dignified when you receive it, you know. ;)

Also - ithurtsmybrain is scary. Brilliant, funny, but scary.
