I think today is someone's birthday...

OH YEAH! IT'S ALLI'S BIRTHDAY!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY wordsindreams! <33333 I LOVE YOU!

Other things:

+ I need to watch SPN 3.10 Dream a Little Dream of Me. I don't have S3 of SPN. Can anyone hook me up or point me in the direction of finding it online? (I can search myself, but I figured I'd ask first.) It's IMPORTANT, you guys.

+ maryangel200 and nearlycloudy make me smile.

+ as do apiphile and swear_jar. Seriously, even their ridiculous comment conversations make my day on a regular basis. *hearts*

+ Twitter held all my tweets yesterday hostage until this morning. I obviously wasn't the only one. But I was pretty confused today when all of the back tweets came rolling in!

+ I'm caught up on my comment replies and emails! I just have to catch up on my flist now, lol.

+ I have FIC to post! :) okay, so I know I said that the other day, but I really do!!

Okay, I'm gonna go pester reallythateasy for a bit because she's supposed to be writing me Bob/Frank. And type up this ficlet for novalinedy, since I missed her birthday last week. ♥

Things I forgot to say.

+ I figured out how to text and email from my phone. And ignore it when Matt calls. But that's pretty much it.

+ I stole the "make lists with little + signs" from irisgirl12000. I figure she's out-of-town, someone on LJ has to do it.

+ danacias is tweeting from the Blink concert tonight and I AM SO SUPEREXCITED FOR THURSDAY! Each time her name comes up, I grin like an idiot and get a little more anxious about this week.

+ My job sucks. What else is new? *g*

+ Writing fanfic about fanfic always feels like a weird idea to me. I've never actually done it (except for "borrowing" Mary-Anne from notthequiettype's Stars and Sand 'verse, which no longer exists on the internet), but I've thought about it in kinda an abstract daydreamy way, especially with larger verses like Thursday Verse or Forever Now or Timmy Has Two Daddies or Battle of Wills. But this isn't actually about writing fanfic about fanfic. This is me thinking about fanfic for Havemercy and Shadow Magic. I guess maybe it's because Jaida was such a big part of my formative fangirl experience that it feels strange to want fanfic about the world she and Dani created. Even though it's totally a compliment! I totally want to roll around in schmoopy Hal/Royston fic, or read about Rook dealing with the fact that Thom is his brother (and vice versa). And I'm only about halfway through Shadow Magic, but omg I want so much fic about Caius! So much!!! He's quickly becoming one of my all time favorite fictional characters. Also, ADORABLE!

+ We camped out in my brother's backyard last night. 9 kids + 3 adults. Fun times. There were snowcones and s'mores and fireworks and silly stories. It was awesome. But at one point I was trying to get Ronnie's attention and I called him "Spike" and my cousin's son Jayden was like "Why did you call him Spike?" and I said it was his nickname and Jayden was like "does everyone have nicknames?" So I pointed them out: Spike, Stink, Joe Dirt, Haleybear, and Racharee (also known as priss-pot). And Jayden was like, all sad, "we don't have nicknames! Mom sometimes calls me Jay and Alyssa Lys, but not REAL nicknames." I felt kinda bad for him. I guess we have to come up with a nickname for him and Alyssa now.

Fic Recs and Fic Dump

Fic Recs and Fic Dump :)

BUT FIRST! The usedfic Exchange needs a pinch hitter for a story!

ANYONE? You don't have to be part of the challenge already to pinch hit, and the minimum is only 1000 words.

So, speaking of The Used, here's where I got my crack-ration to start my week off right:

California Son by valerie_z
Tim (Rancid)/Bert (The Used) || NC-17 (but just barely) || Warning for incest
He didn't know why Bert bothered him so much. Something about the guy just got under his skin. He could talk for an hour with the intern at Machete who thought 9/11 was an inside job, but one smirk from Bert McCracken and he was ready to start swinging. He just needed to keep his distance.

And a Harry Potter rec. Now, I'm not actually so much into Snarry, I only read it when certain people write it. And mimiheart is one of those people.

Finding Peace by mimiheart
Genre(s): Genderbender/Crosdressing
Prompt(s):Secrets and Lies, Sanctuary
Harry/Snape || R, please read posted warnings || ~17,000 words
It takes a great hero to defeat the Dark Lord. Sometimes it takes a greater one to face oneself.

One of my long overdue drabbles. This one is for irisgirl12000, who asked for Dean/Castiel with a prompt of fallen, wings. It's also not exactly Dean/Castiel, b/c I can't wrap my mind around that, but it's close enough. 100 words.

( Castiel hated to admit  )

And this is something related to my Big Bang Fic. If I ever do attempt to write porn, I inevitably get it halfway written and then stop. And then it never gets finished, lol. And we all know I have the attention span of a small butterfly, so. Anyway, this kinda stops in the middle of everything, and it's technically unbeta'd even though it's been read by several people. But I'm dumping it so I don't have to keep thinking about it sitting here unfinished.

Untitled Pete/Patrick/Ashlee
Obviously NC-17 || ~2800 words
Set the day Bob leaves for Chicago in Basement Romantic

( Patrick hoped Pete would be gone by the time he made it back from the airport, but it didn't work that way. )
