fic rec - SPN
Apr. 3rd, 2008 | 10:03 am
in the meantime, i've been reading some SPN fic and i have to rec this one for anyone who may not have read it: 'blind spot' by
it's a gen fic, set six months after AHBL2. dean is dealing with the end of his year coming up when meg comes back in the picture, and i don't want to tell you anymore, because you should go read it right now! or you know, later, because it's pretty epic, with 14 chapters. but go bookmark it now!
what i love about it is the characterization - a lot of times in my fic, i struggle with character's voices - "would they actually say that?". i could totally see them talking as i read this fic, even felt like i was in their heads with them. bobby is also featured prominently, and i adore him. the plot and pacing are stellar, much told via flashback along the way, and i just wish i could tell a story like she does.
do yourself a favor and check it out!

I hope you are having a fabulous day! I am quite envious of your exploits - how many people get to spend their birthday up close and personal with sea turtles?
Hope this next year is even more exciting for you! :-)

another faked memoir
Mar. 5th, 2008 | 01:58 pm
i'm shocked at the lengths this person went to to legitimize what was ultimately a falsehood. my theory is, if you've got a good story, embrace it! being able to create fiction that seems like it could have actually happened would be quite the coup, imho. so my question is, if it's not actually what happened to you, what is the benefit of framing it that way? is it what makes that initial deal happen (or what the writer thinks the publisher wants to hear to make the initial deal happen)? or is it something in their personality that makes them want to re-write their own ordinary past?
what do you guys think?

Happy Birthday,
How do I begin listing the many examples of your fabulous-ness? Shall I start with having a bunch of fangirls crammed into your car on the way to Biltmore? Or the incredibly yummy dinner you and
I hope this day is filled with happiness and love for you (and maybe even a grand-baby!).

happy v-day, flist! i may be feeling aimlessly adrift these days, but the sun is shining and i made not-quite vegan funfetti cupcakes for the office today (i've got a thing for funfetti!) and brought in hershey's kisses because everyone needs some yumminess in their lives. :-)

*breathes* thanks for letting me vent, guys - i feel better already!
( so, 'lost'! )
i'm watching 'house hunters' and every place has stainless steel appliances! am i the only one in the world who doesn't care about these? maybe it's because i used to work in a lab and they remind me of that.

'lost' is back!
Jan. 31st, 2008 | 11:01 am
Yay, it's Thursday! Except what's up with having 'Lost' and 'Supernatural' on at the same time? Oh, and it's 'Celebrity Rehab' night too! Why don't they spread these out so all the shows I watch aren't crammed into the same night? I have one VCR, people!
Speaking of scheduling snafus, remember when 'Lost' was supposed to come back in February? It's nice to have it back a week sooner, but I had bought tickets to see DJ Shadow & Cut Chemist tonight (wheeee!) and will not be home until late. :-( So I'll probably be avoiding you guys tomorrow. But there will be squeeing eventually, I'm sure!
To celebrate, here’s my belated offering for drabble day!

all music mixes have been sent out, so please drop me a line if for some strange reason you didn't get yours.
it's new year's eve! crazy. a year ago, i decided to jump into LJ and fandom with both feet and i have to say, it was a great choice. my flist is populated with so many cool people, several of whom i was lucky enough to meet in person and can call true friends. i wrote a decent amount, and i'm happy with most of it. i am healthy, as is my family. all in all, it's been a great year. i'm quite a lucky girl. :-)
i love you guys! have a great 2008!

T-Mobile To Go phone / phone card for sale (AKA shameless shilling)
Dec. 22nd, 2007 | 04:29 pm
So I'm selling it. Here's what you get for $100 shipped:
- Phone (Nokia 6010)
- SIM card
- $10 activation card
- $100 airtime card - once you add the $100 to your account, you get 1,000 minutes, which are good for a year ($.10/minute)
- Wall charger
- Car charger
- Earbud
If T-Mobile is available in your area (coverage map here), it's the best deal amongst the providers (believe me, I did the research). There is no cost to activate, and the phone is great too - no frills, but it's got good reception, is durable, and is easy to use for calls and texts.. would be a great gift for a parent or grandparent!
Drop me an email (youhaditbutyousoldit AT yahoo.com) or comment here (they'll be screened) if you're interested.
Thanks! :-)
