[life][avalanche of stuff] So sorry! I suck so hard!

Sorry for unintentionally vanishing from LJ for two weeks. I AM A HORRIBLE PERSON!

But, I come baring excuses reasons!

Right after I got back from my trip to D.C. (which was AMAZING) I got sick. Really, really sick. Missed a week and a half of school and three rounds of antibiotics sick. It was awful, but I did lose 5 pounds xD

So I had a ton of make-up school work. That was also terrible.

Speaking of School I have two take home tests this weekend and a test tomorrow at at school. Ack!

Went a a Mr. T Party yesterday, which is basically a Tea Party where everyone dresses up like Mr. T and we watch a lot of the A-Team plus Mr. T's Be Somebody or Be Somebody's Fool, while drinking tea and eating scones with icing mohawks.

To make my costume I went to Micheal's Craft Store to buy a lot of chains and feathers. The conversation with the cashier went like this:

Cashier: What are you making?
Me: A Mr. T costume.
Cashier: Why?
Me: What else would you wear to a Tea Party?
Cashier: o.O

I'm so behind on everything! I need to read two weeks of manga chapters and watch two weeks worth of shows! (Plus do my homework)

Obsessing over the Drive-by Truckers. Great band!

Hopefully I'll be sticking around, no more mysteriously vanishing off the face of the earth.

Aw, well, I hope you're feeling better! That must have sucked *hugs*

I wrote some moar fanfiction, if you want to catch up too!

Thanks! It did suck but I'm better now, and since the weather in Kentucky is finally getting nicer hopefully I won't get sick again.

I just read a couple of your White Collar fics. I neglected to comment, but I loved them! White Collar is such a fun series to watch! And it's so pretty! There is no way real New York City is that pretty.

*hugs*

Thanks for reading! I have another white collar one planned ^_^ I love that series so much! And you're right- they get the "pretty" side of New York.

Not that I mind it! I think I was going blind squinting at the dark screens in CSI. Seriously, there is no way they keep Crime Labs that dark.

My friend dared me to make a KHR/White Collar crossover, but I can't think of any way to do it without it being crack xD Maybe one day I'll manage it (or maybe I'll just write some crack, haha). Other than that I just don't write much for television series, probably because I don't usually watch the current season until weeks after the episodes air. I never have time for TV!

I never have time for TV either- White Collar is the only tv series that I watch/write for.

OMG. KHR/White Collar crossover?!?! That sounds...fabulous, actually. I'd love to help with that, or even write one myself *gets ideas now*

[identity profile] daigranon.livejournal.com 2011-02-14 07:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Omg I have ideas for this!

-is a complete loser-

No actually I was totally like that when she first suggested it, but then I was all 'I must do this justice! So no half-assed shit!', but it seems like lately that's all I can do dies

I'd love to collab. though, if you want. I have a couple of ideas, but I always seem to devolve into mindless stupidity half-way through, or I try to make it too serious which isn't the point of either show.

[identity profile] daigranon.livejournal.com 2011-02-14 08:02 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL xD

Yeah- not complete crack, but not too serious either.

We should totally collab! I'm playing a big concert tonight, but after that I could send some brainstorms over! *excites* I really am bored -___--

Hell's yeah! Maybe this will help me feel excited about writing again.

&hearts I miss your writing!

I have a good idea- after my concert, I'll see if I can get it to you???

[identity profile] straightrhodes.livejournal.com 2011-02-14 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd love to hear it (read it?). Good luck at your concert. (Do you say break a leg to musicians or just actors?)

I miss my writing too. I enjoyed it so much, but for a while there it felt like a chore.
