dreamers often lie

So I managed to register for Pottermore, by staying up until 7 am and sleeping until 2. And I felt very excited and accomplished...but all day today, as I was bitching about my sleep-deprivation, well-meaning people would ask "So what is 'Pottermore' exactly?" And I would smile and start to explain it, and it went something like this:

"It's a sight with some stuff and the books and things happen and..."

Yeah.

So, albeit being happy about it, this is kind of how I feel:

Oh my God, I'm posting again.

Mostly because I start Grad school in a month or so, and I need to write. I say that all the time, I know, and I probably won't - but if nothing else, I'll just talk about my day. Post some fic. When I feel like it, which is more freeing than any sort of livejournal-related promise I've ever made before.

But it's been ten years since I started this thing. It would be a shame to waste it now.

Anyway, fic. I have a great title, and a great opening quote. Aannndd...no one to write it about. So we're off to a rollicking good start.

( Cut for my life is boring )

( Cut for I'm Old as Dirt and so is Ashley )

Let's talk about something fun.

( Cut for the fact that America is sexually repressed )

Amongst other things, one of my resolutions is to write in this far more often, even if it's just stupid everyday type-shiz. That way, I can stop lying to myself and say that I did at least write -something-.

...Starting tomorrow. Or possibly the day after that.

Just for funsies, was looking to see if there was some kind of cute, generic, shoujo-ai-ish Christmas desktop wallpaper. Put "Lesbian Christmas" into Google image search.

Do not Google image search this.

For the love of God.

Ever.

For anyone who isn't my friend on Facebook and didn't see this.

Most people just don't understand what it feels like to -finally- have the leader of your country be absolutely clear on their support. I can't help but feel hopeful.

Thanks, Obama. Please don't let these promises be empty. A lot of us are counting on it.

So, as a fun thing, I now realized it has been ten years since I wrote my first fanfic. For your enjoyment, a selection of passages from stuff I wrote when I was 11-13.

( Enjoy )

My newest video - made for my friend's birthday :D Enjoy!
