The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm in the middle of a SPN/Criminal minds crossover that I was mostly enjoying until I got to this sentence

You waved your rights, you waved extradition

Now I don't know if I can finish it.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

But without extradiction, how will we understand what they're saying!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Okay, that one was my typo, which I came back to fix.

facepalm

The rest isn't though.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

So, just doesn't care about the lefts then?

*waves at rights*

*waives making sense*

waves at rights

Well, it's just nice to wave and possibly nod when you see somebody you know.

Or is that no.

Ah, it's a mute point anyway.

OH MY GOD, WHAT WAS I THINKING WHEN I SIGNED UP FOR YULETIDE?

I have only the vaguest idea for a story. I am made of fail. Please reassure me this is the normal progression of events for someone participating in Yuletide.

Thrive to spite them

I've never participated in Yuletide, but I keep seeing variations of this on my flist so I'll say that this is normal.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Jilli, this is totally normal. Only about 120 of the 1200 expected stories have been uploaded to date because only one in ten people ever finishes the story before the day of the deadline. Resulting in hilarious upload-engine crashes and considerable crazy day-of.

Anyway, you're in very good company.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Jilli, look at the numbers in the poll that I put up. And then remind yourself that I probably have a high percentage of over-achievers on my flist.
