Yay for Flogging Molly. Seriously this band rocks. Wow. Celtic punk fusion? I dunno, but I like it.
Watched first episode of Bionic Woman (yes, I am behind on my TV watching.) Was not impressed. Sigh. Starbuck rocks, but that's about it. But I am happy that NBC lets me catch up on their webpage. I'd be happier with faster internet, but I'll take what I can get.
Did some packing. Saw Heroes (the first episode I've seen on TV). Is it me or are there more commercials then there used to be?
Tonight will be packing and hopefully Borderpagans. Tomorrow heighho Kentucky! And I will return Sunday night.

And hopefully there will be fic progress while I am on the trip. The laptop is coming along with me. I need to get the fortyorbetter fic done by the first and I've been stuck on the 3rd page for about 2 weeks now. What I'm hoping for is enough downtime to get both the forty fic and the 12th night fic done. Then I can start on dear santa and another of my luciusfqf prompts. Or maybe another part of Cauldron of Doom or finish Handsome Prince. Wow, I have a lot to do. So why did I just sign up for hpvalensmut? Cause I'm an idiot. Yup, defn an idiot. Or a glutton for punishment. I think both of the above.
New to-do list of fics with due dates )

My writing insecurities and frustrations

I made a picture after seeing [info]rakina's. Sort of. Not really, I can't draw. It was a nice distraction from the writing issues though. I'm stuck on almost everything, and it's frustrating. Oh my prompt amuses me, mostly because I think I misunderstood it, thought sheep and I really really hope I'm wrong. Cause a fic with sheep translates in my head into a fic with either a blow-up sheep or loads of why scotsmen wear kilts jokes and wow, that's just massive crack. Though wow, really really amusing image that. That's now going in my "Ways to torture the prat who lived" plot bunny file.

I'm basically having to argue the muse out of the "Ooh, why aren't we writing about Lucius? Lucius is shiny!" Yes, Lucius is shiny, but we have fic exchanges, and the people we are writing for did not request Lucius. So stop trying to insert him. Bad muse, no cookie!
I'm just going to keep ranting under the cut, cause this is really frustrating me.
And I think my main problem is SMUT, which I love reading, and can't seem to write, or at least not properly )
If anyone actually read that, they may be going WTF, why is she whining? I should maybe point out that I have never actually had to write when I wasn't inspired before or force the muse (so to speak). I've always written to my own timetable and to my own desires. Gift exchanges, challenges, all new (as in since oh, um August). And I'm worried that my fics won't be as good if I force things, and that the recipients won't like them. I guess I'm being stupid and insecure. I should stop that now.
