Feb. 12th, 2007 07:45 amBullet points are your friend when you didn't get much sleep.
*First, I poke avatarplot people to check their e-mail and tag where discussed. There is progress, yes? Let's make it more progress? I want to be done with thsi baby.
*Got all my tax forms mailed in. *pumps fist* Harvard has some instituion-specific forms to finish, but we should be done with those soon. I'm pretty sure I missed something or other on the Barnard app, but at this point I'm beyond caring. Their huge bloody packet of papers is in, so hah.
Check back with me on the "beyond caring" bit when I start having to grovel.
*You know you've been spending too much time RPing when you dream in AIM chat format.
*Dad's party was a success, even if I do dislike making smalltalk. We have very funny friends. Of course, now the cat is extremely needy, but that's hardly a change from the norm.
*Okay, here's the thing about the Lake Party? I sit down here writing about how nice the sun and the grass and the just-right-for-swimming water in, and then I go upstairs and there's a foot and a half of accumlated snow on the deck outside the windows. And that makes me go "D:"
But those threads are well, well worth it, so.
ETA: Oh, also? We may not have broken LJ, but we sure made my computer complain.
*See that icon? That's part of a Warhol-style print I made during the intensive, repeated six times and with the highly pretentious text Nay, let them only see us/While we wear the mask underneath. Aaaand apparently it's getting entered in a district-wide art show, if the art teacher decides it'll fit. Which I suspect she will, since she's the one who asked me to bring it in.
So, uh. *thumbs up* Something else to put on the resume.

Feb. 2nd, 2007 03:07 pmFound appropriate shirts for Gen and Mir's projects (that offer is still open), which I count as a win.
Um. Also. *muffled, from hiding place beneath desk* If I decided to develop Academy!Charles a little more for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
defy_ka, would anyone be interested in playing with him? 'Cause the other option is for me to continue writing fic, and, um, if my brain heads in the directions I expect, that will be very doomy indeed.
(OH ALSO I had this thought. Meg is totally Simon. It all works! The brilliant older sibling, nevertheless outstripped by the younger sibling, who would stop at nothing to protect the younger. Although Meg rescuing Charles from the Academy would be a very different escapade than Simon rescuing River -- boundaries of space and time mean a lot less in this 'verse -- and the aftermath would be very different, starting with the involvement of their parents.
Aaaanyway.)
ETA: *blinks at phone*
Uh. That was the local rep from Harvard calling to schedule an interview.
....
Cool.

Jan. 20th, 2007 12:22 pmTwo RP shaped things:
1) Attn. Fionavar/DiR players. *rueful* Something would come up, wouldn't it. Turns out we're going to a family friend's birthday party tonight; I've been told that we won't get back too late, but that still probably means 10 PM (2 AM EST). We're probably leaving the house around 6:30 or 7.
Other than posting my part of canon threads, though, I don't think I'm needed for anything time-sensitive, right?
2) Russ meta. Mmm, analysis. I've had a couple more thoughts and am going to add those.
And one not-really-RP-shaped thing. *cracks knuckles* So I did this screen-printing intensive, right? And it was so much fun, and as it turns out there's a class being offered this quarter, I think I'm gonna keep doing it.
So: If you would like a T-shirt and are willing to help pay for shipping, I'll happily make you something! You just need to tell me shirt size, color, and image you want. I promised Gen a Signs of Light shirt, f'r instance. If you have a specific image in mind, point me in the correct direction; if you have something more general, describe it and I'll do my best. Also, text is a bitch, so straight pictorial stuff will get preference.
( I already have templates for: )
. . . Mum just called me to tell me they found a black leather trench that might fit me.
:D
