brillig

if you factor in McShep fanfic the word count has to be in the low seven digits!

That's the stuff I'm currently mainlining! God bless del.icio.us.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thanks! Uh, sort of drug-addled yesterday. Not a good way to live, and I'm taking it too for granted. I am disturbed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

When the Gallup poll asked in 2005 how many books people had at least started -- a similar but not directly comparable question -- the typical answer was five. That was down from 10 in 1999, but close to the 1990 response of six.

I'm pretty sure I just saw a thing that circulation at the Queens Public Library shows that it's something like 9 books per person per year -- and you know not everyone goes to the library! So that was heartening.

Audio books should definitely count, damn it! Whyforever not, when if anything you have to concentrate MORE to follow them?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

The thing with fanific is that I just mainline it. I get hooked on a good story, and then I read, like every other story ever written with that pairing. I am scouring the internets like a junkie or something, until I want to vomit because I have overdosed, and can only read things from a few good authors. Right now, I am to the end of Doctor/Rose fanfic on the internets

I am in such a foul mood this morning. ugh!! and if one more customer calls in who tells me he's hard of hearing and i need to talk louder(read: shout) so he can hear me, i'm gonna go ballistic.

ita, i'm sorry you're having such an awful time with your health. not to mention that the doctors are being asshats.

Oh, my god, why is it morning?

Stab it. Stab it a lot. Maybe it'll die and we can all go back to bed.

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

Stab it. Stab it a lot. Maybe it'll die and we can all go back to bed.

Yes please

I would like that very much.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I have a sudden craving for curry. I bet there are no good places out here.

I also seem to have a need for those weird half-socks you can wear with clogs.
