I wish I was a mermaid and was friends with all the fish

1) I'm ridiculously behind on my TV viewing, but brief reactions from the past week or so:

( 90210 )

( Friday Night Lights )

( Greek )

( Grey's Anatomy )

( Heroes )

( The Office )

( Private Practice )

( Smallville )

2) Caught up on watching The Office, and, ♥. I do love Jim and Pam, but I've fallen completely head over heels for Ryan/Kelly. I just - I really don't know. But they are currently one of my very favourite ships, and I love them to death. ( Season five spoilers + speculation )

3) remixthedrabble is currently open for sign ups! Sign up to be a remixee (to have your fics remixed) here, or to be a remixer (to remix someone else's fics) here, or both. I'm really looking forward to it, especially because, even though I have a million things to do at the moment, it's only a drabble or ficlet. Plus, remixes!

4) Trying to get as much as I can done before November (I'll be in New Zealand for a week to visit my mum, and then in Byron Bay for my dad's wedding), and work out what I can do now vs what I can take with me to do while I'm over there. Also, I'm finally writing stuff again, even if so far it's mainly ficlets/drabbles - I have my Sweet Charity fic to work on, plus a bunch of belated gift fics and a couple of late ficathon entries, but right now, I'm kind of zen about it; I know I'll finish what I have to, but I'm not giving myself a hard time about working on other things instead. Because, really, fandom is supposed to be fun, and if I start stressing I'm more likely to burn myself out than anything else. So, happy place.

5) I wrote fic!

Humuhumunukunukuapua'a (High School Musical RPF - Vanessa Hudgens/Ashley Tisdale - PG-13 - 193 words) Ashley's half sitting on her lap when her hand kind of slips and they laugh and then, there's kissing.

Culturally Explicit (The Office RPF - B.J. Novak/Mindy Kaling - PG-13 - 322 words) It's not like he hasn't met her parents before. Spoilers up to episode 3:6 - Diwali.

Jellicious (The Office - Ryan/Kelly - PG - 200 words) Usually, Ryan's pretty good at tuning Kelly out.

Quabity Assuance (The Office - Creed, Kelly - PG - 140 words) "You're in charge of quality assurance."

OMG. New Kids on the Block! I'm having (probably misplaced) nostalgia. Also, It Won't Last = The Cruel Sea, in beige. Trust me.

And yay, my Sweet Charity fics are finally posted:

Decent Days And Nights (Friday Night Lights - Jason/Tyra - PG-13 - 2634 words) Scenes from a new life (in no particular order). Spoilers up to episode 2:9 - The Confession.

Your Boyfriend Sucks (One Tree Hill RPF - Chad Michael Murray/Hilarie Burton - PG-13 - 435 words) She needs a shower, and now.

Both written for random00b - the FNL fic was what she commissioned me for, plus a bonus ficlet because she was so incredibly patient with me. Yes, I wrote Chad Michael Murray. I don't know, either.

I didn't participate in yuletide this year, but I did manage to scroll through the archive and read some of the stories posted. These were some of my favourites (22 stories in 17 fandoms).

( I've been a clean living boy, I promise you )

Because I'm ridiculously sick (bronchitis FTL), and in lieu of being able to do anything more constructive (like feedback and sorting, blah), a shiny meme. Potential Friday Night Lights spoilers under the cut (though not for all episodes, 'cause I'm still in the middle of my FNL marathon).

( Clear eyes, full hearts, something something )
