  • My job

  • My relationship

  • My friendships

  • My housing arrangements

  • My fanfic obligations and by extension my close fandom friendships of many years

And I have an 8.5 hour shift tomorrow at work.

Once I get home tomorrow night I’m gonna watch Man from UNCLE and turn off all social media. There might be whiskey involved. There will certainly be ice cream involved. I will be ok, but right now I am not ok.

If I hear Jerry Lewis scream, or say something, or do anything ONE MORE TIME ... I'm going to scream and snap and run around waving a wooden stake and stabbing the walls. 
My roommate is kind of obsessed with him at the moment. At first it was interesting. Now, after a month, it's annoying. Very, very VERY annoying. And I've just been letting her do her own thing, doesn't bother me usually, because usually I'm listening to TGWTG vids on my headphones, so asking her to put in headphones at this point would be odd. I think I'll have to, though. Politely ask her to put in some headphones. Offer up my extra pair if she can't find hers. Strangle her with my headphones if she refuses. I need to get homework done. I need a quiet room, without Jerry Lewis SCREAMING. Good god, the man sounds like an annoying cartoon character.

Almost done with my Secret Santa gift. ALMOST. It's ridiculous. It's long. It's insane. I went too far. I didn't go far enough. WTF is going on in my brain? 

11 drabbles, many of which do not constitute a "drabble" to anyone but the most generous of definers. 1 more to go. I HAVE WRITER'S BLOCK NOW WHY??!!?!?!??!!??

So, the Liz and Lewis thing ... yeah. 
See, I've got a couple emotions about that. Relief, not only because they seem to have parted on good terms, but because now everybody knows and I don't have to feel like a gignormous bitch for keeping secrets. Sadness, because it makes me sad when people break up. 

But mostly? Apathy, because I'm so gorram busy right now it's insane. I'm not sleeping enough, I'm probably getting sick, I've started chat roleplaying for some bizarre and probably stress-induced reason, yesterday I started crying backstage because people were being so bitchy and stressed and it hurt so much to be around, and now I'm torn between adrenaline highs and happiness being around singing gay men who tell me I'm adorable and anxiety attacks about how on earth I'm going to get all of these final projects done and quick changes and wanting to cry because people keep being so mean and stuff. I'm really worried about failing, FAILING, classes because of the required crew work I'm doing right now. I skipped a class on Monday so I could take a nap and work on a speech. I've called out of two work shifts so I can sleep and write an essay. I'm considering pulling an all-nighter.
I'm ... I'm scared.

So I kinda wish I had the time to think about Liz and Lewis and then feel guilty because it's none of my business and isn't thinking about celebrity relationships something I've looked down on all my life, I am such a hypocrite now, etc. ... but I can't. I have to sleep and breathe and not cry and get my work done and write an entire essay Friday afternoon because I will have NO TIME this weekend for anything at all.

I am sick of having to plunge the toilets around here. I mean seriously, am I the only one who knows how to do this? Come on, people! These toilets get backed up all the time and you need to learn how to fix it!

Case in point: today one was actually OVERFLOWING so I had to plunge it while water was going all over the floor. Thankfully it was a quick fix, but then I had to MOP the water up with a sucky mop and nobody's mopped in there for ages because there was all this dirt and I didn't have a mop bucket so I had to keep draining it in the sink and ararararaaghghghghggh ...


(Though I will never admit this, deep down it was kinda satisfying to forget about my essays and project and just do something tangible for a while. In retrospect, Geoffrey's infamous "I have fixed the toilet" line from Slings and Arrows has now taken on new meaning for me, and that's just plain awesome. The nature of my project - which included nearly being driven mad by studying the Authorship Question - is going to make my upcoming re-watch of S&A even more interesting and enjoyable than usual. God I love that show. Maybe I'll have time tonight to start Season 1?)

I feel as though I'm finally coming through this whole mess with an ounce of grace and maturity. I can do this ... well, I HAVE done this, I'm just in the process of reflecting and writing about that, and then it's just a matter of putting it all together and it'll be over with.

 2011 isn't doing much to impress me thus far. I knew my workload was going to increase, I knew I wouldn't have as much free time for running around on the internet. I didn't know that the internet and the world would decide to start going crazy and stressing me out. 

1. JO is a homophobe person who thinks that being LGBT is unnatural, a choice, and a 'lifestyle.' Like people would willingly choose to be hated, discriminated, kicked out of their homes, and called 'unnatural' by otherwise reasonable individuals. 
No, JO, I won't attack you, as much as I'd love to lambast you to hell and back for having such a backwards opinion in this day and age. I thought you were an intelligent, kind, cool person. I was WRONG.
Edit: Oh, and that thing in Leviticus? Fun fact: women used to be property! The idea that a man would use another man like he used his wife was considered offensive at the time, because men were supposed to be equals, status-wise, and using your equal like you used your wife wasn't cool. THAT Is what the Leviticus passage means: don't demean your guy-friend by using him like you use your slave wife. It also says the follow things are unnatural: eating shrimp, shaving your beard, working on Saturday, having tattoos, poly-cotton blends, and crop rotation! So if you truly believe that you can't "pick and choose" with the Bible, you'd better take a good look at your wardrobe, your work schedule, and what kind of food you eat if you're going to take the stance on homosexuality too. 

2. Tvtropes! Tvtropes wanting to ax the Fetish Fuel pages! I suggest saving the pages as best you can, I saved the ones relevant to my interests, but I didn't get them all. I wish I'd thought to save the code, now the pages are locked. I'm angry. I'm tired. I can't properly articulate myself in those forums (which aren't set up very well, if I'm going to be completely honest with you.) and fight with people who think they have the right to judge people for expressing what turns them on. It's prudish, stupid, and an abuse of power. Personal bias shouldn't factor into this. Finding something "creepy" is not grounds for deletion. Finding something "illegal" (re: pedophilia) is, but that can be easily remedied by some gorram moderation on that site. Deletion of a whole page for a couple 'squicky' things just isn't right, no two ways around it. If you don't want to be squicked, don't click something clearly marked 'Fetish Fuel.' I have no time to properly deal with this. I wish I did, but it's stressing me out and I need to focus on ... 

3. .... my workload. There's so much. My internet life is getting in the way of accomplishing it. *headdesk*

Edit: 4. Egypt. I feel so ashamed about America's reaction to this: We should DO SOMETHING! ... Should we DO SOMETHING? We should DO SOMETHING! ... Should we DO SOMETHING?

I don't know what we did to displease God or the Goddess or the gods or Satan or whatever, but humidity is EVIL and the promised thunderstorms just rolled off north of us without helping anything down here. Humidity makes you take two shirts to school, in order to change after a hike, but by the time you get on the bus bound for home, your second shirt is sticking to your back. I makes you loose your appetite and guzzle water and groan and moan and stagger about and flap a folding fan despite the fact that you KNOW it makes you sweat more. It makes friends bicker about pointless things, makes That-Guy raise his voice (!!!!!!!), and makes ME a nasty individual to be around. I've said some awful things today that I really regret saying, and all I wanna do is go to SLEEP and dream of David Tennant.
Speaking of DT, since it's so gorram awful out I've been trying not to think about him. Reading slash in the stifling computer lab is also out of the question, particularly since it seems that people have been churning out stuff for a kink!challenge and that ALREADY made my cheeks burn ...
*sigh* There was a funny bit yesterday when I waved my hands around my head to get the bugs away, calling them many foul names in American and mostly English swears. Some of my fellow hikers eyed me nervously.

In my personal opinion, hell (if there is one) is not hot. It is humid.
Have a nice day ... *wishes she were where magnetic North is, which is somewhere in the Hudson Bay, I believe*
*would do a funny dance to amuse the gods if it wasn't so dang HUMID*

Am I the only one who knows that lynxgriffin, the creater/owner of Jerry the Frog Productions intends to take down the site????!!!!!!!!
Worst of it is, I can't figure out how to comment on lynxgriffin's livejournal to express my utter horror and shock.
Could someone please help me out?????!!! The 'Help' tab doesn't tell me how to do this.
Please! I spent half and hour or more copying the puppet shows and saving them in Word documents (which means the picutres aren't there) and I don't even know if lynxgriffin will save the shows to (her?) livejournal, so they could be disappearing for good!
HELP!!!!!!!!!

Am I the only one who is aware that lynxgriffin (creater of Jerry the Frog Productions) is taking down said site!?????!!!
Worst of it is, I can't figure out how to leave a comment to lynxgriffin, explaining my horror and shock. I spent about half an hour copying and pasting the stories, because I can't figure out if they'll just disappear!
Someone, please help me! The 'help' icon doesn't make any sense!

Arrrrrrrrrrgggggggggghhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!! Say it ain't so!
