exhausting week

[cornerofmadness]

I've written almost nothing except for monday which feels like months ago at this point. I'm editing a little now but mostly I'm surfing the next drowning in depression.

Work has been crazy and dealing with the second period in a month isn't helping (ah, PCOS). So little things set me off, like stumbling over a post on Jana's FB about someone asking about vampires and another person responding with a rant that ends with 'they're so over, just stake them all.' Yes, one person's opinion and there are just as many people who love them still. However, seeing that when you're in the middle of your own vampire story takes the wind out of you.

Of course I could go look at this article ES sent me yesterday because it helps. Focus on fun and forget fear

And also I KNOW I have a sex scene between Luc and Arrigo but it's MISSING from my already overly long draft. Sobs. It's god knows where but not in the middle where it belongs. ES sent me this one on those saggy book middles that's also pretty good the muddle in the middle

If nothing else at least no one said this about one of MY sex scenes. George R.R. Martin writes with less sexual appeal than Ted Cruz opening his robe and asking a swarm of tarantulas if they are moist. (from Cracked's famous books with sex scenes that couldn’t be filmed)

And assholes broke into the cars in the lot here again and I'm betting they were former tenants because they knew where the cameras were to block them. Luckily it wasn't MY car this time.

I will say Kudos to Disney too bad they didn't film in North Carolina too. Now I'm wondering if I WILL be going to the conference there now in light of their new anti-LGBT legislation. Do I even want to?

But not all is doom and gloom. I had wine at the winery. And then there is is this adorable couple in Oregon.

Watch on YouTube

And this fandom lingo tea blend collection and they all sound yummy (and look only ONE rooibos blend, see people who do MY fandoms, you don't have to put that crap in everything).


And I will say this: I was disturbed by these movies when I first saw them (except for the Brooke Shields one, which I never saw). It didn't take aging to make them inappropriate. 5 classic movies that have become horrifying with age

and boy is it raining.

I think I've seen three of those five movies. I remember Brook Shields complaining about being asked by (a? the?) reporter(s) 'how she liked to do it' and her mother said, "She was in a movie. She's twelve," and me thinking, "Yes, and you let her be in that movie at twelve?" Ugh.

That's great about your parking lot. Just great. /sarcasm font I'm glad Naru was safe(?) this time.

I read about North Carolina with a head shake because I was too busy being outraged over the law signed by the local governor. Jeeeeeze.

I remember the flap about Brooke in that movie but it wasn't something I'd ever see. And her in Blue Lagoon (and wondering wtf was wrong with her mom to be so desperate to keep putting her in those sorts of movies and the flap about Christian Slater's sex scene in Name of the Rose when he was like 13)

My car is fine (well yesterday. I haven't been out there today) but there's a tire on my porch today. Thanks fedex

Yeah your state isn't winning any awards. Give Kasich time in mine.

I liked Blue Lagoon. It was pretty. Well, the ocean was pretty. The storyline was kind of...

I didn't realize Christian was 13 in Name of the Rose. Hmmm. I did love that movie. One of these days I should read the novel.

Yay for Naru...at least for now?

My state. Sigh.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I never made it thru

If not thirteen under 16 at least. he was under aged

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

I remember Christian looking terribly young.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I looked it up, 15.

did I mention Slater plays more or less himself as a CIA operative in Archer

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Is he the guy who looks like Danny Bonaduce?

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

no, they drew him looking just like CHristian

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

I haven't seen him, then. I keep seeing the guy who looks like Danny Bonaduce.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Red head. Mustache. Everyone thinks he's gay.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]
