Resource Busy  

Yeah, we're resource busy here for the next half hour or so which means...I can't work!  It's really really sad.  And if we lose this morning's work...mine was SUPER easy.  Every single doc had the same 2 codes.  A few had an extra one but not many.  Long and short - it'd be easy for me to put the codes back in.


If you haven't seen Ciara's "Like a Boy" vid, check it out!  Interesting concept video for sure and girl can dance.  Plus, the meaning behind the song...not to be missed.  Also, if you need a laugh or a pick-me-up, check out Avril's "Girlfriend" vid.  Seriously funny.  Why yes, I did spend my morning watching vids...oh, and Kelly's new vid, lived up to the song.


Work is work.  It's still fine.  I'm listening to OotP which passes the time.  I should finish it up on Monday.  I strongly dislike most of them.  Harry, Ron...well mostly Harry and Ron.  I love Hermione.  I have no reason to dislike Ginny yet.  Neville's the cutest fella.  Gred and Forge...you have to adore them.  Uh, I've never been a huge Sirius fan.  Can't say I'm devastated that he's not around.  Lupin is my wolfy buddy.  Yeah.  OotP was such a better story than HBP.  God it SUCKS.  It's like reading bad fanfic when compared to those that came before it.  Way too much info crammed in.  No really details in most cases and mountains of them in a few.  Rushed as hell.  It was obvious that she wanted to get to book 7.  Bah.

Leaving at noon today!  Going home to clean.  Dinner tonight at Elmo's.  Turkey burger!  Don't have big weekend plans.  I'll be watching the Rangers v Sabres and probably some Yanks ball.  Soccer on Saturday as usual.  It'll be sports for the weekend I'd assume.  We HAVE to finish the two disks we've got of Gilgamesh.  Maybe watch some more Gunslinger Girl.  Maybe I'll play a full game of MBL 2K7 before it's due back.  Definitely read more fanfic.  I PLAN to try and write at least the opening chapter to a new fic.  Maybe take a look at my Spashley fic.  It's not happy, might never be.  Maybe that's good.  Yeah, maybe that's good...


But now it's over, it's over, why is it over?
We had the chance to make it.
Now it's over, it's over, it can't be over.
I wish that I could take it back.
But it's over.

We could be forever...

Argh...and Inspiration  
So I think I'm going to close the book on Bianca.  Hand me the brick and the trash bag.  I think I'm just going to drop her in the Atlantic.  Today, she and Zoe conspired, all giggly and middle school-like to spend lots of time together in London and Paris.  Bianca wants to take Zoe to all her favorite Parisian haunts.  They are going to see each other, blah blah blah.  Drivel.  Brick.  Trash bag.  Maggie, please for the love of cake, go fuck a lovely Parisian chick because Bianca doesn't deserve you.   You are a hot hot chick.  Go find someone who will love you, appreciate you, not take you for granted, and not run at the first sign of trouble.  You deserve it.  And if you see podBianca and Zoe out and about in Paris, feel free to flaunt your new, totally hot, girlfriend.  Gratuitous acts aren't frowned upon nearly so much in France...

However, now that I've gotten that out of my system, I do plan to fix this.  I actually feel quite inspired to write fanfic again.  My plan is quite grand in scale and scope.  None of my ships worked out.  None of them.  I'm going to fix it.  I'm going to write a story for each of them that ends happily if it KILLS me...and it might.  I love angst and honestly, I don't know that all of them would work out in the end.  But I'm going to find a way to make it so.  These girls deserve a chance at happiness and since their original writers fucked it all to hell (or never even gave them a shot) I'm going to do it.  I'm not saying I plan to write fluff.  I don't write fluff.  There will be angst and tons of it.  I can't very well fix the mess of Bianca and Maggie I've been left with without it.  And Buffy and Faith?  Without angst?  And violence?  Yeah right.  And Sam and Brooke?  Dear god that will be ugly and painful.  As to Spencer and Ashley...I don't even know.  That book isn't closed yet.  I need to get back to that fic.  I don't know though...I'm pretty sure it might not end happily.  I need to think about it.  I guess that's the thing.  When I think about all my ships, I don't honestly know that all of them would be endgame for each other.  Bianca and Maggie, I feel completely 100% certain they are endgame.  Honestly, Buffy and Faith, if they ever figure it out, would probably be endgame.  Sam and Brooke, I love these girls.  I think they could make it work once they got past their own issues.  Spencer and Ashley, I think I've let the second season jade me.  And they are so fucking young ya know?  It's hard to know what would happen when they went off to uni or whatever.  I know, I know...Sam and Brooke were in high school too.  But they were so well developed.  Honestly I think they could make it work because both parties would really want it in the end.  I'm not sure about Spencer and Ashley.  I just don't know them well enough as characters.  Well, that's not quite true.  I thought I knew them pretty well, then the writers completely changed everything in season two.

But there's the grand plan.  Fix the mess with fiction.  Someone is getting a happy ending damn it!  And maybe, after I fix my big four, I'll work on Kaylee and Inara.  Lots of potential there.  And Jo and Meg...really, don't even get me started.  It's so strange that I want to make people happy.  I really have gotten soft...but angst damn it!  There will be lots of it before there is happiness.

So I guess...I'll post my work here maybe.  I need to do character analysis and figure out where all my girls are now and where I want them to head.  I actually started this last night with Buffy and Faith.  I can't write them if I don't know them.  Buffy and Faith, I think I know them fairly well.  But Joss is adding to the canon with the season 8 comics so who knows what will happen.  One thing about me, I do like to stay within canon as much as possible unless I'm writting a complete AU.  But I'll post my character and relationship analysis here.  Could be interesting...maybe.
