Okay, fandom friends... be honest and tell me, what's the most embarrassing thing you've personally written? (or read, if you're not a writer) I'll even screen the replies. No one else needs to know your secret shame.

...I just need reassurance that I'm not the weirdest person I know. >> Because I think I just might be.

Yeah, I'm kind of sure I am.

So.

I got, what, two hours of sleep.

If I take an ambien now, I will sleep until noon. If I don't take one, I may not sleep more at all, which means I will fall asleep while my mother is preaching. I mean, I don't actually want to go to church, but either way it's a dick move on my part when I'm trying to be helpful and supportive of my mom.

...when I went downstairs for super-early breakfast, my dad was still awake on the couch. Watching MTV. And I thought I had issues. At least I'm not watching shitty programming at ass'o'clock a.m.

D:

I may have to flip a coin on this ambien issue. I have stuff to do tomorrow that requires at least a partially functioning brain. I could probably coast through on 30% capacity. I'm running at about that right now and it's not going to level off.

Okay. I'm going to... idk, do crossword puzzles until I drowse off? At least then I stand a chance of a) 3 hours of sleep and b) not blowing my mom off when she tries to wake me up. If she does. I know Dad won't.


eta: Oh snap, Amy Poehler popped! The baby is named Archie. N'awww.

Oh man, it is ridiculously windy out. Especially by the lake.

...you know, I live on the Finger Lakes now, and I'm not even sure which one it is down the street from me? That's kind of sad, huh. xD

Okay. So my to-do list today, and I only post these to shame myself into finishing them, is as follows:
-fill out the job applications I got yesterday
-find enough stamps to mail my ballot
-finish the HAKM ficlets (two to go) and the Halloween ficlet (it's not cute enough yet)
-laundry! like whoa.
-find the WD40 and make my door unsqueaky, to facilitate late-night sneaking around (or, you know, 3am snacks)
-sit my ass down and read more of A Lion Among Men


Hey, Olbermann fans: it's a new Special Comment! Very important, too. Clicky, y'all.

...I think I'm going to start with laundry. And lunch. Om nom nom, leftovers.

So, I got... uh, one and one-third items on my list done? That's pretty bad, but. I watched Company Man and Parasite with my mom, and had very quiet squee about Mohinder and Sylar, and louder squee about the awesome that is Noah Bennet. Mom was all, "Come on Mohinder, use the tuning fork on him again!" and I had to tell her to hush because that would have ruined the tension of the scene, sheeesh, has she no respect for the hoyay? (answer: no, no she doesn't.)

It can't already be Halloween week. I have no plans for dressing up, but still! (ooh, Nov. 1, cheap cheap candy :3 that's good at least!) Julia wants me to help her do her hair Amy-Winehouse-style. Anyone have tips for that? Cause... I don't see it turning out too great. xD

I need a shower, comfy jammies, and then I can settle down and... do paperwork, I guess. All of my prior job experience is in Plattsburgh, and there's little enough of it. I don't want to work food service again. D: Why you want this job: "Please let me dress men up in tuxedos. I will make so many sales because I find it impossible not to compliment guys in suits. I'm even good with color-matching for vests and stuff. GIMME JOB. *grabbyhands*"

Right now I am very sad that my Heroes comic book is still in a storage unit. I want to re-read about Hana Gitelman. No such luck. I'm not very far into A Lion Among Men, but man, Brrr is such a weenie. I know, Cowardly Lion, but still!

I'm all drowsy now because I didn't get my afternoon nap. Going to sleep before midnight means I'm getting old, though. My superpower should be never needing to sleep. I could get so much stuff done... read so many books... ah, it's nice to dream. xD
