The WIPs meme, to be exact. :D It's been all over my flist today and looks like fun. Plus, I haven't done one in ages, so I'm due for a meme, yes? *nods*

Post a single sentence from each WIP you have (or as many as you want to pick). No context, no explanations. No more than one sentence.

( The sentences be here, yes, they do! )

Gakked from karri_kln1671:

"The Johari Window was invented by Joseph Luft and Harrington Ingham in the 1950s as a model for mapping personality awareness. By describing yourself from a fixed list of adjectives, then asking your friends and colleagues to describe you from the same list, a grid of overlap and difference can be built up."

Now go check it out--you can contribute anonymously if you'd like and even create your own to post for your friends. Go on, you know you want to so make with the click-y! *vbg*

Interactive Johari Window

Yes, I should be writing or at least posting an update for ficfrenzy. So of course, I am doing memes instead. *grins*

This one was gakked from karri_kln1671 and padawan_aneiki and lots of other people on my f-list.

Comment here and I will reply to you and tell you what icon of yours I associate with you. Once I reply, please repost this in your own journal, because I want to know what icon you associate with me.

Damn. Now I guess I really do have to either go write some more or post a waaaaaay overdue update. *le sigh*

Gakked from angeloftheruse and karri_kln1671. I think I've done this one before, but I've added at least another 2k songs since then so I thought I'd give it another go. :)

First, ze rulez for anyone who might want to play:

Get your ipod or media-player of choice, select your whole music collection, set the thing to shuffle (i.e., randomized playback), then post the first ten songs that come out. No cheating, no matter how stupid it makes you feel!

My Ten Songs:
1) The End Has Only Begun - Lifehouse
2) Lost Inside of You - Barbara Streisand & Kris Kristofferson
3) Here's to You - Rascal Flatts
4) Hung Up - Madonna
5) In the Rain - Dramatics
6) O What a Thrill - The Mavericks
7) Believe In You (Radio Mix) - Amanda Marshall
8) Let's Talk About Love - Celine Dion
9) Voice Mail #2 - Original Broadway Cast of 'Rent'
10) Reelin' In the Years - Steely Dan

Comment and I'll give you a letter. Then you have to list 10 things you love that begin with that letter. After, post this in your journal, and give out some letters of your own. Let me know if you want a letter.

This post is brought to you by the letter 'M', given to me by padawan_aneiki.

( Is this cheating???? )

So, finally getting to post another update here. I've been very neglectful of LJ outside of the most recent fic posted, so I'm sorry for that. Between hubby's taking vacation days, grankidlet antics, and other family stuff, playtime has been limited. :P

And sadly, my beloved little Furball has left this world. The entire family was there with him on the final trip to the vet and stayed with him until the end. I was pretty much a wreck for days afterward. It's still hard and I still expect him to be there waiting with toy in mouth and tail wagging at the top of the stairs every time I come home. My emotions are pretty much at odds right now. Part of me wants wants to wait for a very long time before even thinking about another mutt, but the other part is screaming at me--loudly!--to find another mutt to join our family. I suppose we'll have to wait and see which part eventually wins out.

Oh, that's right, I promised an update, didn't I? So I guess this is the part where I own up to the current projects and admit how little I've been doing lately. :P Okay, so without further delay, here are the gruesome stats:

Fandom: Thoughtcrimes
Title: The Silent Twins
Words: 790 words total so far
Progress: Still working on opening scene, though it's almost finished--finally. Background has been set and the action can now begin! Er, almost. *giggles*

So hopefully updates will be more regular again, but I'm not holding my breath. :P

And finally, we leave you with a meme. This was gakked from karri_kln1671.

( My Fantasy Archetype is... )

Have a great Sunday everyone! *hugs*

Gakked from like almost every single person on my flist:

Gakked from belisse: ( My Silver-Age SuperHero Career )


I need to apologize for not posting an update in quite awhile. I have been plugging away at the zine fic, though, despite the lack of progress reports. I'm at a little over 13000 words and almost finished--in fact, I'm on the last scene now. I'll post the final tally once it's finished--hopefully later tonight.

In other news, I might not be online until Friday night. As I'm re-reading the letter from our management company that I found on my door yesterday, I'm realizing that it's really rather vague. All it really says is that they're going to be replacing the outside breakers for the buildings, which will require shutting off the power, and that work will be done on Thursday and Friday. Hopefully, they'll be turning it back on for the evening hours tomorrow. *crosses fingers*

Yeah, it's definitely easier than the 30 songs one. :D

Post in comments and I will give you a letter. List your top ten songs beginning with that letter.

( I got the letter S for Shep, bless alasse_fae. *g* )

Gakked from belisse, here's the "nice" version:

	Dear Cupid, This year, I've had my ups and downs in the love department.
We were playing spin the bottle and Gumnut tried to kiss my lips but missed and kissed me in the eye (consequently blinding me for 3 days). The restraining order that Gategeeks put on me was upped to 500 feet. I tried to seduce Theyllek with the whole ‘secret admirer’ bit but then lost interest.
So, as you can see, it's been a hectic year. Can you please make Meliaka fall in love with me this Valentine's day? Sincerely,
