Mmm, lazy morning.  
By which I mean "fucking phone fucking ringing when I'm still in fucking bed" but I only dragged myself upright for the second call, so while I missed it, and I'm up, I also did not have to talk to anyone. Score!

EK has moved all the "A Year in Waiting" strips to their own sub-domain so you should check them out! The service industry is thankless, but I liked it for a lot of the same reasons she did.

[info]porn_battle is on again this weekend... I should write for that. None of the prompts are really pinging me, though. What is the world coming to when people cannot give me intriguing jumping-off points for hot hot sex? Honestly.

Things I am Trying to Do/Have Had an Eye Toward Doing This Weekend:
- reorganise Raph-Is's music, video, and art directories
- ... in preparation for pumping everything into Aziraphale and starting again in a nice, logical order. Possibly chronologically, because that's a good proof of productivity, right?
- Oh hell, write those things I said I'd write or I'm going to have to give MM to Wyrren! (I'm not convinced I ever told her about this. XD; Um. Surprise?)
- So, uh, do not write anything for [info - community]porn_battle until those things are done. Or at least one of those things are done. Oh, hell. Damn you, [info]stepstepjump!
- clean the bedroom
- clean the bathroom
- wash sheets

- dry sheets
- vacuum
- BSG pre-series special thing
- xsltproc again jdsfjahs
- Medieval Faire at the coast tomorrow with uni kids!

I was talking to mum about blogging the other day and why I make use of it. She keeps getting hung up on the privacy issue. "Why would you want to put it all out there for people to see?"

ME: Well, you don't have to. I mean, I could make mine friends-only, or locked just to me. But it's sort of a universal way of keeping in contact.
MUM: People don't need to know what you're doing every day. :\
ME: No, but I do. :\

And it's true. I really use this more for my own benefit than yours. I have a memory like a steel wossname, and I need this, because if I don't write it down, it's lost in an anachronistic haze. And as a fiction archive it's a good measure of when I've been most productive. Also, tagging is better than sorting things into boxes.

That train of thought derailed itself, but I did have a point when I started! See, I should have written it down and then dissembled. I don't have the memory for reverse-pyramid articles any more. ;)

I'm getting a what now?

I've always been like that about my journal, too. "I don't care if I'm boring you all, because it's my journal, and a journal records things like one's day and mundane stuff like that."
That said, I totally dig being Friends Only. I am still paranoid that Anna or family would come across it at some point. |D;

Rave: WRITING >> seme'd[info]cheloya on July 11th, 2009 12:15 pm (UTC)
Ehhhh, I figure this is probably a reasonably distant introduction to the inner workings of my mind, and if any of my family members don't like it, well, they don't have to keep talking to me.

:( I promised myself that if I hadn't written at least one of five things over the last fortnight, I had to give you my GC copy of Majora's Mask. I only have until Wednesday to fulfill that deadline and, uh, so not happening. So, uh, prepare to receive a game, I guess.
