New rule. If you don't like it and it doesn't concern you, SHUT THE HELL UP, NO ONE WANTS TO HEAR WHAT YOU THINK.
Am severely fucked off at much of LJ today. Fortunately, my flist hasn't joined the general exodus in the direction of the stupid, but one of the reasons I got on this was to meet people (and let them know exactly how shit I am at friendship, hur hur hur) so it annoys me when I think that there might be one sane person in the whole troll debacle of a few days before and go to their site with the intention of checking them out and then adding them...only to find that they have slammed my game in four direct ways THAT I KNOW OF, and come close on a fifth.
Who the hell cares? It doesn't matter to you what we do, oh illegitimate bastard son of troll, does it? Or is this decreasing your general enjoyment of the great big internet?
My life apparently has four sectors: Online, Car, Job, Relationship. The new rule is that two of them must be down and the other two are up. Now that Car and Relationship are up, Job and Online are down. So, it's time to bust out the chickens and go for the blood sacrifice to get the other two up again. Especially as I could add another sector, Writing, and that's currently hovering halfway.
But to entertain myself, I made a list of titles of things I'm working on the other day. I present them for no reason other than your amusement, and I am crap at titles, and most of these are working titles anyway.
- Darkness - working title for a piece for magazine submission about my return to the US.
- The Dead Letters - working title for a book on gods and demons. This one has to change, as it's an album title.
- Breathe Out - the long unfinished Snarry fic that will be the only piece of epic fanfic I ever write.
- I Fall Off The Wagon - working title for a short story that will either be a fictionalised account of my last bf and what happened there, or will be a factual account. Either way, harsh and gritty. And the difference will mainly be in the ending. As in, I haven't killed him. Yet.
- Three Acts - working title for a shorter fanfic based on Gwen's request from a while back that I have most of in my head but that can't make up its mind if it's a drabble or a longer work.
- Dirty Tricks - fic I owe Jason for a bet about whether Snape would blush or not.
- The Case of Palestine: Identity in a World of Nation-States - In serious need of a new title on this one (and actually, looking at this, I can see some ways to expand the damn thing to 100K if needed) but this is the reworking of my diss into a real book.
- As-yet-totally-untitled - comic piece for submission to a magazine illustrating my difficulties with maths.
And I think that's all I'm writing. I need to make more time to do this!
Right. Must vacuum now before Dog decides to eat more toilet paper. And maybe later I'll post some pics. One will be of my sword!
