thebratqueenSo the holidays are over, I'm not going to bother attempting to clean up the remains of Christmas until next weekend, and I finally get a chance to log back on and catch up. I now present onto you various tidbits of things I feel like commenting on:
So, (Destiny Spoiler alert!) according to this article Sarah Thompson didn't know that her character was evil. Huh. So can she tell up from down too? I mean Christ, it was practically embroidered into the twee skirts they kept shoving her into. What's next for the ST plot twist shockers? Angel's a vampire?
Anyway...

As 2004 starts I've got various resolutions that I've made, most of which I'm not sharing with you people because I like being dark and mysterious, or at least borderline obnoxious, but one is of course to try to top all the activity that I did last year. This is going to be difficult considering that last year I added a new member to my kitty family, made a comment about Wes and beastiality that for some odd reason my memory completely blanked on, started a war, created a blackout, completely by accident influenced the fall fashion line, made absolutely certain that my FBI file has a gold star and a red flag on it, for that matter made certain that I was going to Hell, abused font tags with a message I'm sure I'll be repeating very frequently as 2004 goes on, and, of course, bought a new red chair.
So clearly 2004 has a lot to live up to, especially as far as office related furniture purchases goes. But I think I've done pretty good by almost 100% convincing![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lucifrix to go to Connexions this year and that's got to be a good start, right? Now I'm going to convince all of you to go to Connexions this year for verily the con doth rocketh like no other con doth.
I swear I won't speak fake Olde Timey talk at the con if you go. Much. Possibly. Look as anyone who's seen me at Connexions can tell you, I can't promise much in terms of good or what they like to call "sane" behavior. But the con is cool. Go to the con. Be the con. Live the con.

Now that the holiday rush is over my mind naturally turns back to thoughts of fic. Epiphany is still on the back burner as I hash out the timeline of the upcoming plot, Pet has by no means been forgotten (nor has C&M), and Trust Me has at least four more parts to it before the story's done. Or, since I'm sure you all know my complete inability to guess how long stories will be, I guess I should actually say there are four more significant plot points that need to happen before the story is done.
So naturally my mind now tells me that concievably TM is turning into a new series.
Head? Meet desk.
I mean not that I mind as such. I'm just amused to watch bunnies blow up. Lord knows if I was going to pick a story concept that would appeal to me as an ongoing series, this isn't the one I would guess would do it. But - say it with me now - "Everybody Fell was supposed to be a one-off" so what the Hell do I know?
Not that I'm promising anything. I think one of the worst things a writer can do is not realize when they should have said "the end". There have definitely been stories I've done in the past where I turned them into series, or added sequels that at the time seemed like a great idea but now that I can reread them just make me wince. So we'll see. I am nothing if not a bunny victim.

Speaking of things which sound like they should be made into LJ icons or sig quotes,lucifrix answered the question of "Is it absolutely necessary for lesbians to use toys when having sex together?" with the comment "If toys were necessary no dyke would leave the house without a big purse" and damn if that isn't wisdom for the ages.

For a brief moment today I pondered learning how to do Astrology, just for the fun of it. Then I skimmed a book about it and ran away scared from all the calculations. And this was a book that actually encouraged using a computer to help.

Did you know thatsisabet is actually younger than I am? Durn whippersnapper.

I promise not to talk fakey Old Western at Connexions either. Mostly. If I remember.

Finally, for now at least, I've got another thought I've been pondering but I'm going to toss it in a post all its own for the sake of discussion purposes. So apologies for the posts one right after another. After that I've treated myself to multiple books and magazines, so I'm going to hunker down and enjoy myself. Mmmm.... geekiness.
