On peeping people.

Am almost done with "The Fountainhead". It's taking me an appallingly long time because I have to be leading a, you know, LIFE. I've been running around, doing all sorts of stuff like applying for jobs, going to classes, food shopping (so fucking depressing when one has very limited funds to speak of), copying various articles for classes, and, in between, trying to snatch some time to read my f'ing wonderful book.

Reason To Hate Computer Labs #69: Roche sent me a WONDERFUL Slashy LoTR Art link, and she DID warn me not to look at it when people are next to me, but fuck, what choice do I have? So, I had a less "bad" picture open than I could have, but this guy that was sitting next to me looked, saw, smirked, and turned away.

Argh. But thank you, Roche, anyway, for the lovely link! For the curious ones, this is it. Enjoy!

In other news, I've been ok. Haven't seen Marie again, but that's ok. I will at some point. Have been going out every night, so tonight I am having a lovely time in, lounging around, READING, and hoping to write more of this new...story... Different from anything I've written lately. Hopefully, it'll be good... *rubs hands together* Oh, the angst...

I need get away from my PWP's for now, as I've been feeling like it's not exactly the biggest reason I love R/S. It's THEM. And while I love PWP's, and writing them is extremely fun, I want something that shows their relationship better. Ok, I just can't be eloquent right now. Nevermind.

Got very drunk two nights ago. The thing is, Robin's dad makes the best damn elderflower (?) wine, it's absolutely lovely, and sweet, and, as it turned out, very potent. Three glasses and I couldn't walk straight. Where was it when it was New Year's? *sigh* But it was fun. Oh, the irresponsibility of it all. Ha.

I've applied for a few jobs so far, need to do more. I am so scared, having seen my bank account. Fuck.

But, anyway...

Funny, I remember [livejournal.com profile] jadis31 posting this Tori Amos line in her LJ, and I just heard it today, while listening to the CD Robin loaned me (along with her DISCMAN, she is so damn nice!) - "So, you can make me come, it doesn't make you Jesus." Heh. I just heard it again, so this wasn't totally off the wall.

I, too, decided to visit Portkey.org. Oh, man. So, THIS is where idiocy comes from! I get it! It's the new root of it. And, yes, we Quillers do make up quotes. However, not a single one of us has been able to come with a gem like JKR saying: "Harry needs [Hermione]...badly."

Please post transcript. NOW. Would love to see that.

Anywho...

I'll be good now.

Have you ever thought that you're living among sheep? That the world really is a horrible, stupid place where idiocy breeds the rest of the great evils of this world? That you were put on this world just to end up banging your head against the wall, afraid that a little more, and you'll dissolve into this world, forget who you are without ever really finding out, and just...just...become one of them?

Isn't that a frightening thought? And what's more frightening is that I don't even know whether or not I'm one of them, and have I always been? I know that sounds horrible and egotistical, but I sometimes hear what people say, and what they do, and I just...I just...want to get a big hammer and blow it all to pieces.

Ok, maybe I should go now.

1) I keep forgetting to tell you-- YAAY Ayn Rand! I'm so very happy you're reading The Fountainhead because, well, it's a good book. Must now recommend to you Anthem, which is much shorter, much easier, and I think it's much better.

2) Also keep forgetting to tell you-- bought At Swim Two Boys Hehe I LOVE it, so far, and I've also bought a copy for a friend, so you know it's good. Mwah.

3) *dies of Aragorn/Boromir overdose*

4) With the sheep thing? Again. Anthem. It'll make you feel... not that there are less sheep, and maybe that there's more of them, but it'll make you feel better that you're not one of them.

5) Mmmtoriamos. Mmmpreciousthings. You have GOOD taste.

6) Love you!

1) You've read it? Really?! I just finished it - FINALLY! - last night, and am thoroughly in love with Roark, but that's beside the point. It's simply amazing. I can't wait to read her other stuff - she's fantastic, and smart as hell. I'll read 'Anthem' next. :D

2) WHooohoooo! I cannot tell you how happy you have made me. Oh, MAN, just wait till it gets going! You'll be blown away. :-D And I hope your friend enjoys it, too - I can't believe you did that, that's wonderful! :)

3) *dies of Legolas's body overdose* *Supports with all her slashy heart the Aragorn/Boromir overdose*

4) See, what I am scared of is that I AM one of them. Somehow, somewhere, I either never got out or sunk into it. Only I'll be able to tell, I guess. I'm just afraid of becoming Peter Keating. *shudders* But no, I will FIGHT the sheepdom, and DAMMIT, I will WIN!

5) Ah, why thank you! *preens her musical tastes* I rather think so, too. ;) By the way, judging from the songs you list on your LJ, you have wonderful taste, as well. *mwah*

6) Love you too!

ood shopping (so fucking depressing when one has very limited funds to speak of)

Oh dude do I know. *hugs*

Good luck with the jobhunting and stuff. And I like the link, although I have one question - Legolas/GANDALF?!!!!!!

Cannot wait for delightfully angsty fic. Yay. And need get away from my PWP's for now, as I've been feeling like it's not exactly the biggest reason I love R/S. It's THEM. And while I love PWP's, and writing them is extremely fun, I want something that shows their relationship better. makes total sense - smut is fun but it's not the *point*. Remus and Sirius and the way they interact is the point, not just any two guys getting it on.

Have you ever thought that you're living among sheep? That the world really is a horrible, stupid place where idiocy breeds the rest of the great evils of this world?

Yeah. Not a nice frame of mind to get into. But if it helps, lovey, then I hope you know that I would never, ever consider you one of those people. You're one of the people who makes me think there's a bit of hope left. *hugs*

*snorts* Yeah. I know. That one was funny. But, ooooooooooh, the other ones... And the first Arwen/Eowyn was simply gorgeous. WOW.

Cannot wait for delightfully angsty fic. Yay.

Oh, pressure, pressure... Hope it won't disappoint. Hmmmm....

makes total sense - smut is fun but it's not the *point*. Remus and Sirius and the way they interact is the point, not just any two guys getting it on.

Yeah, exactly. However it PISSES me OFF when people start saying that gay sex is disgusting and blah blah blah blah blah SOMEBODY GET ME A FUCKING HAMMER! Ahem. Ok, NOW I'm done.

Yeah. Not a nice frame of mind to get into. But if it helps, lovey, then I hope you know that I would never, ever consider you one of those people. You're one of the people who makes me think there's a bit of hope left. *hugs*

Right back at you. Siriusly. Yeah. But it does scare me. Quite a bit, in fact. I think it's a good thing to think about, however, because, well, THINKING in general is good. And this is a topic that I think everyone needs to get into at least once in their life - or, maybe, at least a hundred times.

*hugs*

*dies* Those PICS. My GOD.

Right, I'll shut up. ;)

I know what you mean, about the PWPs. That's strange. I never thought you could get to many of those... ;)

Bwahahahahahahahaha! Mmmm. Indeed. ;)

Yes, those pics. I hope you know that you were simply TORTURING me last night. ;) Good thing those people finally left so I could get my full share. Hehehehehe...

Yip! The Theban Band!! Lovely people providing joy to LotR fans *g*

Mere words cannot describe the full loveliness of it all! *sigh* *dies*

I'm one of them. Maybe one a little more stubborn, but in the end...I'm just part of the herd.

Oh, no. Not you. Believe me, not you. I know that in the end we are the only ones that can have that judgement - after all, we know ourselves better than anybody else - but I somehow really doubt that you are one of them.

And thank you.

*HUGS*

You have to promise me that you will not venture onto portkey.org without someone trustworthy online with whom to IM. Last night Kathleen nearly fell into the Shadow and only mine and ami's intervention saved her from turning into an H/H-Wraith. You must be strong and remember that we will not desert you to such a fate. :)

Have I thought I am living among sheep? Yep. You, however, are not one of them.

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Poor Kathleen. I AM glad you saved her from a fate worse than death. ;)

Yeah, I promise. However, I also believe that I am strong and can withstand. Of course, last time, I only lasted for five minutes, and already was spitting and hissing. Ah well. Fuck it all, anyway, it's stupid, and the next book will show exactly why. :D

Thank you.
