So, I decided against making an actual mommy/auntie filter for now. That may change after Illy is born, but for now yall can read if your interested and skip if you're not.
1. Ronnie is on an 'action plan' to put more effort into his schoolwork (yall know what a hard time I've had with him ALWAYS), but now, because he's getting extra attention for it, Davey is failing stuff ON PURPOSE so he gets that extra attention to. Parenting fail, wtf. I'm not quite sure what to do.
2. work!Amy is in IL for the weekend - her hubby graduates from Navy boot camp tomorrow - and Robbie is in Atlanta for the weekend for some video game thingy and Brittany is off tomorrow, so it's just gonna be me and work!Heather. Here's hoping for a quiet Friday. :)
3. Baby shower on Saturday. I apparently have one more prize than I do games lined up; anyone have a suggestion for a good baby shower game?
4. Somehow, I find that I'm going to be head coach for the boys' soccer team? idek. It's only one hour, twice a week, starting next week and going through the end of May, but still. I'm not sure how this happened or how I feel about it.

9. last night,ashlein made a post asking for Draco/Neville recs, and I was like "Hey, I wrote that once!" But then I had to find it, and apparently I never actually linked it from my personal LJ after reveals were done at hpslashnotsmut last year? idk. But here it is.
Jump to Conclusions (note: while that is a line from an Empires song, I don't think that's where I got the title from? possibly, though.)
Draco/Neville || PG for a few curse words || ~2700 words
Draco’s keeping secrets from Neville.
10. A meme, as tagged bythedogstarlives several days ago. First: If you've been tagged, you must write your answers in your own LJ and replace any question that you dislike with a new question. Second: Tag eight people. Don't refuse to do that. Don't tag who tagged you.
Lots of pillows or just one?
LOTS! I srsly have a dozen pillows on my bed.
What kind of books do you read?
I love books. I'm not too picky about what I read, although sometimes I'm in the mood for certain things.
What's the weirdest thing you've seen today?
If imagination counts, the weirdest image would be Sam and R's Self-Checkout Adventures. As for something I've actually seen... um, idek.
ZOMBIES OR ROBOTS: Which apocalypse is scarier?
Robots! I'd rather take my chances with the zombies. I've got a 30-06 and a I know how to use it. (lol, "what I do got is a GED and a give-em-hell attitude!")
What's really creepy?
um, lots of things. that's a really vague question. Today's example: the guy from PHD who deliberately takes the long way to the printer so he has to walk through The Naughty Spot on the call floor, especially if Brit's over there with us.
What's your current fandom/obsession/addiction?
THE USED!
Cake or cookies?
Dear Cake,
I love you.
You are delicious.
Love, Sam
What websites do you always visit when you go online?
gmail/googlereader, livejournal, parentportal on the school's website
What was the last thing you bought?
I bought a bunch of crap at Walmart last night, including camo bandaids for the kids, new cereal bowls, clothes pins for one of the baby shower games, and twizzlers.
How do you think you'll die?
What the hell kind of question is THAT? Really, who made up these questions? I'm not afraid of death, and although I don't talk religion on here, I am comfortable with my own beliefs. The how or when isn't important.
Do you get cravings? If so, what do you crave?
Sometimes. Usually for starches, like potatoes and bread. Especially mashed potatoes with gravy, or oatmeal bread with honey. YUM.
There are also non-food related cravings, even though those are what I thought of first. Sometimes I crave good country music, sometimes loud screamy stuff. Sometimes I crave fluffy fics. A lot of the time I crave really good D/s fic written from the sub's POV, but that's hard to find.
I always crave internet cuddles, so feel free to smother me with those.
What do you do to change your mood?
Depends on how I'm trying to change it. Music, fic, friends. Sometimes hiding under the covers even though I'm not going to sleep.
What was the last meal you ate?
I made spaghetti and garlic bread for dinner.
Do you want to learn another language?
Southern American is hard enough, okay? :P Um, I took 5 years of Latin and 2 of Spanish in high school, forever ago, and I'd be interested in possibly actually becoming fluent in Spanish, but that seems like a lot of effort.
Five things you can't live without.
1) my family
2) my friends
3) my faith
4) dreams
5) um... idk. I'm quite attached to my phone and my laptop and all that stuff, but I could live without it if I needed to.
Find the closest book currently sitting near you and flip to page 54. What is the first sentence of the second paragraph?
"I thought you was kind of sweet on her. you always hangin' out with her at the Sand Spur."
What's something you'd like to say to someone right now?
No, I'm pretty good at saying things to people when I want to say them.
What are you looking forward to?
Wincon, even though it's really far off. Panic dropping a new album and touring (bonus!fangirl time with that one!). Getting my copy of Weekfight Hotel. Baby shower. BABY ILLIANA! Dragon Soul. Changes.
Tag: I don't know who has already done this, so if anyone hasn't done it and would like to, have at it! ♥
