Soooo, I Haven't Posted For A Month

[laliandra]

I have absolutely no idea how that happened.

Well, I mean, I do. I vaguely think about things I want to post and then I get on the internet and forget all about it. I also planned to have finished some of the many and terrible WIPs I have on the go right now, but that, er, hasn't happened either? And then I just think of more things I want to write and I think my brain just sort of gets log-jammed with ideas.

Anyway, in the past month I have tweeted a lot, liked a lot of things on tumblr, finally got myself a TSN icon, totally made "wardo" as a verb happen, played through all three Jojo's Fashion Show games, had the sleep schedule of a mad insomniac and generally failed about the house in my socks and misbuttoned pyjamas.

I have had some on and off temp work, sigh. It's so depressing. The other week I worked for six days, standing up for pretty much eight hours straight every day, and in the end, I scraped past earning £200 *gets back under quilt and doesn't come out*

I also went to a wedding in Wales! It was... Are you going to call me crazy if I say it was very wedding-y? It was like the show-home of weddings. Nat's cousin is a professional cricket player and all of his friends are sportsmen and they all have very WAG parters and it was very... Wedding-y. Also I accidentally flashed my arse to a bunch of people but that's a story for another day.

Oh! Also I watched all of Band of Brothers and wept into my gchat window at daisysusan and there were pretty boys covered in dirt and heartbreak and it was amaaaaazing.

I've been trying to write this entry for like, five hours, and I'm being terrible at it, so, like, ask me things in the comments or whatever. How have you beeeeeeeen?

To make up for it, here is a masterful characterful study of Mr Rochester, by laliandra and moogle62

PPPPPPFFFFFFFFFF. AHAHAHAH.

THIS IS THE MOST QUALITY OF QUALITY ENTRIES.

[laliandra.livejournal.com]

SKJHG YOU :D

I could write an actual entry or I could just paste in terrible IM conversations...

I'd like to say this isn't standard but it really is.

[daisysusan.livejournal.com]

[insert a stamp of approval here]

[laliandra.livejournal.com]

DOUBLE WARDO.

[daisysusan.livejournal.com]

TRIPLE WARDO?

with bonus Mark

[laliandra.livejournal.com]

Mark was bound to show up at some point. Three Wardos all smiling at him? Come on...

[laria-gwyn.livejournal.com]

Band of brothers! SO SO GOOD! (and bonus THard being all pretty and um sex bouncy?)

I just watched Jane Eyre a few days ago! I kind of loved Jane's 19th century sassy ways! :D

[daisysusan.livejournal.com]

Hiiiiiiii I don't know you but I like your icon! Also, laliandra was getting skeptical that she would recognize THard when he showed up (which is understandable, because most everyone is covered in dirt and sadness) and I kept being like "NO REALLY, YOU COULD NOT MISS HIM IF YOU TRIED" and then she was like "DUDE THAT ID BB TOM HARDY NAKED."

That was my random story.

[laliandra.livejournal.com]

I WAS GOING TO TELL THAT STORY >.

[laria-gwyn.livejournal.com]

Hi there! Thank you! It's one of my favorites because they look so genuinely happy and carefree. <3

I love your random story. :) I remember watching each disc and thinking, hmm, I'm pretty sure Tom Hardy is in this, I wonder when he's gonna--OH HEY IT'S BB TOM HARDY HAVING REALLY BOUNCY SEX. *__________*

[daisysusan.livejournal.com]

I need some Band of Brothers icons ... but then my heart might break.

Ahaha, nice. I had no idea that Tom Hardy was in it until I got to the sex scene and said to my friend "LOL SUDDENLY NAKED PEOPLE" and she was like "MAGGIE. THAT IS TOM HARDY" and I was like "!!!!!!!!"

[laria-gwyn.livejournal.com]

I kind of want to rewatch BoB now...will remember to keep the tissues handy. ;___;

Maybe 2 days before I reached that disc, I saw some clips of THard in Scenes of a Sexual Nature which featured some very nice shots of him taking off his pants, and then there was Sergeant Slaughter. It was like the naked Tom party never ended. :)

[laria-gwyn.livejournal.com]

PS You obviously have excellent taste in everything. <3 Would it be all right to friend you?

[daisysusan.livejournal.com]

I watched right at the end of the summer/beginning of the school year, and then I rewatched all three of the HBO war dramas ... and then I rewatched the last four episodes with Lal to hug her. And by "hug her," I mean "keysmash and cry."

And yes, of course! I would love to friend you back. ♥

[laliandra.livejournal.com]

It's SO great! I loved it so much even though it traumatised me horribly and regularly. I am a massive history geek, plus it has everyone ever in it. And yes, baby Tom Hardy and his accent of dubious origin *g*

I read the book when I was about 9 and imprinted HARD on it. I love Jane and her book sneaking ways :D

[savetomorrow.livejournal.com]

hai hai. is it weird if i was anxiously waiting for you to post something so i could comment because i haven't commented on your journal before and it's a big deal for me? don't answer that.

totally made "wardo" as a verb happen
I don't even know the definition of "wardo" as a verb, but it's now my favourite verb and you are my new hero.

Also, that conversation is made of pure non-artificial awesome. ♥

[laliandra.livejournal.com]

Not at all! I felt a little bad about friending people and then disappearing /

:D Wardoing is when you check up on other people and make sure that they eat etc. I do a lot of virtual wardoing.

Why thank you! It is mostly madness, which is extremely representative of most of our conversations...

[savetomorrow.livejournal.com]

Aww, don't feel bad! *pat pat* I feel bad about friending people and then spamming them all with a billion journal entries about university stress. Woo hoo.

Oooh, okay. I've definitely been virtual-wardoing my best friend, then XD

Madness is the new awesome! ♥

[swiiftly.livejournal.com]

What are Jojo's Fashion Show games...?

ONLY MY DRESSING GOWN UNDERSTANDS ME. BEST BEST BEST.

(ilu)

[laliandra.livejournal.com]

Oh god, they are these terrible un-quality games where you have to dress models and there is a story about the designer and her daughter and it's sort of like paper dolling for points and I LOVE THEM. If you wish to lose some time, I can give you dl links.

*FLINGS SELF ONTO SOFA*

(ILUUUUUU)

[shiningartifact.livejournal.com]

I have nothing intelligent to say, but I am delighted to see you on the lj and would love to hear the story of how you flashed your arse to a bunch of people.

Loooooooove. ♥♥♥

[laliandra.livejournal.com]

I am delighted to see you! <#

I owe several people terrible and inappropriate stories of my life, I may have to make an entry. It was fairly mortifying, but the internet were very good to me and said nice things about my arse, so that helped!

[arkeiryn.livejournal.com]

You're crazy.

Also, I demand the arse-flashing story.

[laliandra.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Cat!

[arkeiryn.livejournal.com]

Heh, I made me reply this morning and then realised later I should have put smilies or something in it so it wasn't so serious :P

[laliandra.livejournal.com]

Aw, that's okay honey! I didn't think you were being mean or anything :D

I am probably going to have to make the flashing story into an entry because there have been numerous requests for it...

[arkeiryn.livejournal.com]

ICON! ICON ICON ICON!

*ahem* ^_^" But yes. *demand demand demand*

LALLYALLYANDRA LALLYALLYANDRA

I have nothing productive to say, I just had that in my head all day (:

HELLO. Tell me about all your WIPs!

(I keep feeling bad that I friended all these people at the friending meme and then never posted anything because I never post anything because posting intimidates me, so I am totally impressed that this post only took you five hours!)

[laliandra.livejournal.com]

Plaaaaaaaaaaaay HELLO MY BB.

Well, I have the Dustin/Amy fic that was supposed to a snippet and is pushing 6k, duckling fic, the one where Chris and Eduardo are at Harvard and Wardo is sad and nothing happens, the one where Jesse and Andrew are in an apartment and nothing happens, the one where Andrew and Jesse are fake!boyfriends, the episode of Doctor Who that I'm rewriting and possibly some Glee fic?

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD THAT IS A LOT. Only some of them are actually written down, some of them exist in lolsummary email form because Moog is an enabler and some only in my head. Okay, one only in my head.

SORRY ABOUT MY LIFE, ETCETC.

(the one to blame, the one to blame. Laliandra.

I WANT ALL OF THESE FICSSSSSSS. #TEAMDUCKLING #TEAMFAKEBOYFRIENDS #TEAMTHERESASNAKEINHEREAMY

At least they are only on your computer? I have like 3 wips floating around the internet that I am pretending do not exist.

what? why are you sorry about your life! DO NOT BE SORRY ABOUT YOUR LIFE!!! (: <333

#TEAMTHERESASNAKEINHEREAMY

[laliandra.livejournal.com]

:D :D :D

Amy’s not sure what makes her talk to him. It’s a big party and there are plenty of people she knows there, but she watches the guy bounce from group to group, telling stories with increasingly extravagant gestures and before she knows it she’s telling him her name and her major (cliché but effective) and waiting for him to do the same.

“Dustin,” he says, “I’m doing...” and pauses. He opens his mouth, closes it again.

“Please tell me you have a major,” she says. Fuck. “Please tell me you’re not someone’s high schooler little brother.”

#TEAMFAKEBOYFRIENDS

[laliandra.livejournal.com]

Before Take 48 the girl touching up Andrew’s make up gave him a chapstick because “he looked like he needed it.” Andrew spent a couple of moments looking at it in misery. “Fuck everything, I’ve damaged myself kissing.”

Jesse leaned against the wall of the fake corridor. “Yes, your life is such a trial.” He shook his head. “No-one has ever actually been on the verge of a breakdown after kissing me before, but I suppose it was only a matter of time.”

He started walking again, but he could hear the patter of tiny feet on stone behind him. He pushed open the door at the bottom of the tower and gestured up.

“Have you seen these stairs? You won’t make it all the way up. You won’t make it half way,” he told the ducklings.

The yellow one said, “Peep,” in a determined fashion and scrambled onto the first step.

“Fine, have it your way,” Eduardo sighed, stepping over them to make his own way up the steep spiral.
