Abstruse and lacking rational, but making so much sense somehow

[brilligspoons]

I'm more tired than I really have any right to be, but it's cool, I have coffee, which I'm sure will kick in at any moment now. >:( My brain doesn't want to function properly, so I think this calls for a list of sorts. Or maybe multiple lists. I don't know.

...maybe just one list of random things. That sounds about my speed right now.

THINGS

-starsparkle333 and I cleaned the apartment this weekend! Huzzah!
-Sometime in the near future, I need to replace my DVD player. It's decided that all discs are the wrong disc, which is not conducive to watching things. In its defense, I've had it for almost 3 years now and it was SUPER cheap when I bought it, so. Oh well. Maybe I'll spring for one of slightly better quality this time around.
-Since it's National Poetry Month, I decided to post a poem every day on tumblr like I did last year. April 1 was Hug O'War (Shel Silverstein), April 2 was Archaeology (Vona Groarke), and April 3 (today) was Autumn Tune (Carol Frost).
-After work this Friday, I'm heading down to CT to meet baby Evan! SO EXCITED, YOU GUYS. Am spending the whole weekend with them, too. It'll be nice and low-key, methinks.
-Need to get back into my writing projects, like yesterday. /o\
-Baby blanket number 2 is coming along, though. \o/
-Finished reading From Westminster With Love this morning. I was giggling SO MUCH, you guys. I love fics where Charles is a ridiculous flirt and Erik's life is the hardest as a result, okay? Also it was really well-written!

Should probably go do some work now. Happy Tuesday, all!

Aahhh I loved From Westminster with Love a lot when I read it too!

And yay for clean apartment!!!

IT WAS SO AWESOME. And apparently the author also wrote two of my favorite fics in the fandom, so. I should maybe work on being better at recognizing these things. :D?

[starsparkle333.livejournal.com]

Well now I'm curious what the other 2 fics are!

X Marks the Spot (http://archiveofourown.org/works/292813), which is an Indiana Jones fusion, and Not So Much the Teacup (http://archiveofourown.org/works/247757) (an AU where Charles is a wedding planner and Erik an architect)! I also read What Not to Expect When You're Not Expecting It (http://archiveofourown.org/works/230719) (mpreg) a while ago, but I can't remember if I liked it or not. /shrug

:D

aaahhh i adore the wedding planner fic. xD I don't think I ever read the Indiana Jones fusion. I suspect I started it (because I have liked their fic in other fandoms), but never finished it.

[brilligspoons.livejournal.com]

You shoooould. I know you have, like, a gazillion tabs of fic open now, but. :D?

[starsparkle333.livejournal.com]

Funny you should mention that.... because I DO have a billion tabs open. BUT WHAT'S ONE MORE, RIGHT?! /o\

THAT'S THE SPIRIT! *\o/*

Man, blogging is so much easier since I started doing it in list form. And when I have something real to say, I can do that too!

[brilligspoons.livejournal.com]

Making lists is therapeutic in some ways! Definitely helps when there's too much going on around you and in your head.

Yay coffee! And lists :D

Sounds like your DVD player is definitely reaching that cranky age when it needs to go away *nods* Mine did that - I replaced it and gave it to my youngest son. I figured it would probably work for his purposes (10 minutes to put him to sleep). Works like a charm now. O_o

[brilligspoons.livejournal.com]

I'm kind of mad about the DVD player, actually! I'd hoped to get another year or two out of it. Hrm.

I need to take the time to read "From Westminster" this week while I have more free time. Hmm...

[brilligspoons.livejournal.com]

It's SUPER. It didn't take that long to read? But I read fast, so I might be a poor judge of how long it takes to get through. >.>

[afrocurl.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I have a few others that I have saved to read and that's one. But we'll see. If not tonight, tomorrow.

[brilligspoons.livejournal.com]

Yay!
