Aug. 31st, 2009 02:18 amSeriously, not being able to keep up with my flist makes me SO FUCKING SAD! I have got to get back on a decent schedule. Yall keep your fingers crossed for me that one of these other jobs work out for me. Lack of LJ time is not good for my mental health! I went back like three days or so, but I don't remember if I've actually been able to read my flist for the last week or so, except for whatever day the Weekend at Pete Rose's video was posted, b/c I'm pretty sure I read my flist that day. Anywho, if I missed something that you think I shouldn't have missed, please link me?
Here are a few links that none of yall probably care about, but I'm sharing anyway.

Love, Coffee, and a Giant Problem by
aggybird
Original Fic || WiP || PG || ~10,000 words (this section)
Summary: Jack English is a down-on-his-luck recent college grad with a business degree and an ailing mother to take care of. They live in the less desirable part of town, barely making ends meet. Desperate for a paycheck, Jack takes a job at a local coffee shop after he runs into the owner (literally) on his way to a job interview on Market Street. Mr. Spriggins is a crazy old man with a mad affinity for experimenting with different flavors of coffee. When a new shipment of highly desirable (some might say magical) coffee beans arrive, it draws in large crowds, including cynical corporate giant Benjamin Jacobs, descending from the top floor of his steel and glass tower to see what all the fuss is about. Jack begins to wish the handsome executive would fall for him -- but how can a simple guy like Jack bring down a handsome giant like Ben? Especially after a horrible misunderstanding involving Ben's prized possession threatens to sour Jack's chances at love.

Bandom Height Chart (which will totally be linked in my Resource Post once I finish with it. ugh, you'd think with all this insomnia I'd actual get something done, but obviously not!)
I LOVE THE USED! Yes, okay, I realize that's not a link, or news, but I felt like it needed to be said. They've got a new album out, you know.
Um, what else? Fire season in California. I hope all yall are doing okay. It's a scary thought. I guess one good thing about my baby brother being away at boot camp is that I don't have to worry about him being out there fighting forest fires. Is that selfish? Probably.
Okay, I'm gonna go try to sleep for a bit. We'll see how the dreams treat me. (Although, the one I had the other night that involved, like, trying to break out of a secret military facility and stealing a jeep and arguing with Brandon over the CD in the CD player was kinda amusing, even if it still left me freaking out when I woke up.)
I'm looking forward to another boring week at work, so feel free to leave me more drabble prompts. Fandom/character/pairing + 3 random prompt words. <3
