Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

Aha!

-- The other day, while I was setting the table, I was talking to myself, and I was saying that if some game-show host came up to me in the street and said I could have the prize of a million dollars if I could only recite the names of all the Nsync boys, I probably wouldn't be able to do it.

So I tried. There are five of them, right? Or four. Justin I know. Uh. One's an acronym-- JC. Chris, too, not Carter, that's a last name. Is there one named Bass? That doesn't sound right. Maybe he's a Backstreet Boy.

This is how my sister walked in to hear me going, "Bass. Carter. Bass. Bass? Or one starting with A? Ah, fuck it."

So... now I know that if that situation ever does come to pass, I probably'll fail it. Oh, well, bye college tuition.

I also have a plan for which part of my body I want Alyson Hannigan to autograph, should I ever meet her and she's holding a Sharpie.

It's good to know these things in advance.

Joey!

See, now I'll win the million dollars.

Joey. Of course I forgot. It also began with J.

Oh, fuckity. I just realized I think with a little memory jogging, I could give you them in chrono order.

I'm lost, so lost.

Thrive to spite them

I realize I don't write a lot, but I want to change my pen name slightly. I keep getting startled everytime I see Allison Skye because I think of myself as "askye".

Also I want to change my email address, because I want all my fannish stuff going to one address now.

How hard would it be to make these changes?

Depends on how many places have you under the current name.

I'm trying to think--Smallville Slash, Buffy Fiction Archive, Level Three, Glass Onion, and Silverlake. But I don't have all my stuff at every place, I only have one story on Silverlake. I think there are three at Level Three. That sort of thing.

I realize it would be a huge thing to ask the archivists so I wouldn't go to them all at once and expect it to be done right away.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Don't expect it all to get done period. Some archivists don't have time, some archivists will do their best, some are vacationing in Tahiti.

That's not to mention all the other places on the net where you didn't KNOW you were being archived, until you googled your pseud one day. Although googling the email address is better, actually -- you get the archives and not just random references.

Changing your fic pseud is just... unpleasant. I don't recommend it unless you absolutely have to. Like you posted everything under your legal name and it included RPS and now you want to teach kindergarten, or go into politics.

My email address only shows up on Google for Smallville Slash. So I guess I won't worry about that.
