sundries?!?!?!!

Pro-stuff I am actively working on for the next week:

- Madonna essay
- Lesbian werewolf story (remember this? from the dawn of time? I blew the deadline like crazy AGES ago, but because the anthology editor is gracious and awesome, it's still on the table)
- Bristol abstract
- Email to dude with the vague CFP for the Luhrmann-related book, and a general plan of AWESOMENESS
- gay airship pirates story
- finishing touches on Snape paper and Powerpoint
- amorphous category of pitches, semi-pro stuff, an abstract without a home and other oddities, omitted

HOLY HELL HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?

I just received the most jaw dropping piece of gossip I've received in a damn long time. No, I'm not telling you, but seriously, if you know me well, how hard is it for me to be gobsmacked? I'm gobsmacked. GOBSMACKED.

I think I am buying a computer tonight.

We're going to Ocean Grove and it's going to rain all weekend. ALL WEEKEND. So I think it's turning into a sex and writing sort of thing.

still gobsmacked.

I think I am buying a computer tonight.

I always love buying a new computer. Everything is shiny, new, fast and I'm happy...until I get it home and proceed to spend the next couple of hours getting it just the way I want it.

Fun times.

Go, you! Get down with your efficient self!

You’re a terrible, terrible tease.

Desktop or laptop?

That sounds like an awesome weekend.

Really, terrible.

Laptop.

And seriously, not mine to tell and not that interesting to others, but it made me a little cross-eyed this morning.

Steampunk is such WIN.

And I'm so freakin' curious about what has you gobsmacked, but I'll not ask. I'm mature and stuff.

I'm mostly amused trying to picture you as gobsmacked.

Laptops -- such fun! Mac or PC?

And, um. A weekend of sex and writing doesn't sound so bad even if it's raining! :)

Rain? What rain? We had weather?

[ladyaelfwynn.livejournal.com]

Wish I had a weekend of sex and writing lined up! ;-p

We've got a trip to the country with friends, so I'm looking at outdoors stuff, games, and crafts with kids.

Have fun!

I just got this laptop, good deal for the price...and it arrived within 36 hours of ordering which amazed me!

Gay air pirates or lesbian werewolves? I don't know what to be overcome with anticipatory glee at first!

Gossip: fine, be like that.[G] Gobsmacked is to my ears such a delightfully Canadian expression, and trying to imagine your facial expression is so much fun, I don't care!

Good luck with computer shopping!

[tod-hollykim.livejournal.com]

Why not lesbian air pirate werewolves?

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

Oi! Leave something for the sequel!

[dedra.livejournal.com]

Or how about gay vampire air pirates vs. lesbian werewolves? That would be good too!

[shipchan.livejournal.com]

Can you say what sort of gossip? Is it about people in life, or people in life who are on TV?

[torenheksje.livejournal.com]

Not sure whether I'm more looking forward to the gay airship pirates story or the lesbian werewolves story. *rubs hands together in gleeful anticipation*

That sounds very nifty indeed.

We're going to Ocean Grove and it's going to rain all weekend. ALL WEEKEND. So I think it's turning into a sex and writing sort of thing.

There are definitely far worse ways to spend a weekend.
