Like I said, I've said what I'm going to say on the matter and that's final. I don't want to say everything I'm feeling - I don't think I could - and there's no reason for me to anyway. I did find it a little funny to see the comments on
gamesetmatch suddenly go up, whether or not it was a direct result. I hope it was, and I hope it continues, so that something good will have come out of it.
Sadly tennis slashers, you're not getting rid of me. End of story. :)
Been shopping today, since college woman finally paid my deposit back. *dances* Into my *parents* account - though I feel somewhat bad for bitching about her now, since she seems to have been waiting for bank details for me and in lieu of having them, has done the next sensible thing. I apologise Dragon, and will attempt to think better of you in future.
Of course, the important part of this is that I now have money to buy my English books for this year, so a marathon Amazon session will be had tonight I think. Much with the good. :D *loves new books*
Other than that, the events and posts and people of today have reminded me that I need to get off my lazy ass and finish Halo and write Andy and Roger a combined birthday ficlet and write
astonish's bribery fic and write my BPC fic and catch up with all my feedback which I've been planning to do. All. Along. Anyway...
So I'm going to go and do it. After turning off the internet which will only serve to distract me. I *will* be back later with fic.
And I'm not saying happy birthday to Andy until I have a fic to give him as a present. So Andy, you might have to wait till the early hours of the morning for a happy birthday from me. I can't believe I just typed that as if he was *reading*.

Yes, you do need to finish Halo! We've been waiting far too long for it as is! :-P

Date: 2005-08-30 05:28 pm (UTC)You weren't; you said pretty much exactly what I was feeling when I woke up to it on my flist this morning, only I really didn't think I could say anything without it turning into a fight. There were a couple of things especially and a subtle dig which *hurt*, but I just didn't want to react. I love this fandom and if I reacted badly... *sighs* I really *wanted* to though.
The last scene is running much better than the smut, and would've been done last night if I hadn't had to sleep. *rolls eyes* Who invented sleep anyway? But I'm going away to work on it and it really really shouldn't be long. I just want it *done* at this point. :)

Date: 2005-08-30 05:35 pm (UTC)I probably should've stepped back and taken some time, but honestly, I've got the kind of temper where if I did that, it would've been worse later than now. I noticed the dig and *snuggles* I'm going to email you, so we can talk without it going all wonky in the fandom itself. *nods* That's a better idea... and you can vent better that way.
Awesome. Sleep is stupid! *giggles* and of course you want it done. It's got to be more of a pain for you writing it than for us waiting to read it. *snuggles*

Date: 2005-08-30 06:06 pm (UTC)I knew I was going to be out all day and I couldn't leave it without saying anything. I didn't want people to read that and think that was the tennis fandom, or let it hang unanswered. And that's a very good idea. *nods* goes to check email*
I know! *kicks sleep* So much ficcing time wasted. And the smut was hard, which is why I think it came out a little lot *grins* stiff, no pun intended. I'm so relieved to be back on sweet, simplge dialogue, so I think it can't take much longer. :)

Stupid sleep! Ruins all our ficcing time! ;-) Okay, can I say as resident smut queen, that it didn't come out stiff... and if it did, take into account the fact that it was Roger's POV and he'd never done it before so in a way, from his pov it made sense to write it that way. However, I still don't believe it was in any way stiff. Well, the scene wasn't. I hope the boys were. ;-) I really, really hope it's soon.

Date: 2005-08-30 06:06 pm (UTC)Go write fic! I need to write fic too. I told myself I'd write my BPC fic as soon as I got my prompt because I'm just horrible when it comes to fic-a-thons and as that didn't happen, I'm forcing myself to do it now. It's not even like I don't have an idea for it, I'm just a lazy slag.

Date: 2005-08-30 06:11 pm (UTC)*goes to write fic* I forgot I had to write my BPC fic until someone mentioned it the other day and I went "AaaaahhhhhhaveImissedthedeadline*panic*". I've got my plotbunny though, so I'm hoping to get it done in the next week or so. Or, more likely, right before the deadline knowing me. ^__^
The internet is all about the lazy. Talking without having to think fast enough to form words. Sitting in one place. Lurking if you can't be bothered to join in. It makes lazy so *easy*. :)

Date: 2005-08-30 06:55 pm (UTC)I'm surprised I haven't forgotten about it. I was like, okay, you have to write it right away! Then I got my prompt, wrote like five paragraphs and haven't worked on it since. XD I'll still probably cut it close but I am determined to get it done on time. I just suck so bad at deadlines, I really do.

Date: 2005-08-31 01:34 am (UTC)*g* You dragged me into this whole Andy/Roger buisness and made me realize that maybe liking Roger is not so bad at all.
I'd keel you if you left. Please don't be like Michael Owen and leave us for Newcastle. Or something.
