What are you doing thread

[watty]

I'm writing with Car -- no, we're not working on something together, we're each writing our own stuff, but like, encouraging each other. Like in college when you had a study buddy and you found a corner in a library where you studied together. I'm also happy cos the Airport card I ordered for my 2002 Titanium Powerbook finally arrived and I just need to go to the store to have it fitted.

I just received a 1000$ check, I am kinda feeling amazed by it ( it's a scholarship!!) so I'm happy !!! Marguerite

I'm trying to look busy for the last hour I have to spend at work.

[Emms]

I'm watchin' Sade in concert on dvd, oogling her in the white sequin shirt/skirt she's wearing and wishing the Robots cereal I bought last night didn't taste like crap.

I'm flipping through the phone book, looking for random names to use in my script.

[FineyMcFine]

I am sitting on the couch drinking coffee after my shower, watching a little telly. Wondering what to wear to work. I think shorts and a fuschia polo short. Running shoes. Yay for Friday. Also, I'm thinking about buying a splitting axe.

[Emms]

I'm getting ready to write and enjoying the cool morning, before the sun heats everything to a miserable degree.

ETA Hey. Yay. I'm gay now! heheh I mean...my level...is Gay Now... not that I'm gay now...cause...hello...gay for a long time...very gay....oooookayyyy

I'm waiting for my gf to get here (my apt), it's the beginning of the weekend for us, the weather is miserable, she is pissed off at people at work, I'm irritated cos those pissers is putting a strain on our relationship. We haven't seen each other since Sunday (as usual) so a heavy dosage of snuggles is in order.

Happy that I finished writing a large section of KR, just sent to Car for review. Waiting for Car to send me her fic for review, it's mutual beta-ing weekend.

Wanting to congratulate Emms for reaching the oft aspired status of Gay Now, even though, snerk, she really hasn't only recently turned gay .

[FineyMcFine]

I'm pondering whether to update UberCon '05 now or tomorrow morning. Cannot decide.

I vote for tomorrow morning....otherwise I will be tempted to read it when I get home from work....and I have to finish the next chapter of Coming Back so I can post tonight....otherwise watson will kick my silly ass.

To stay on topic....I'm looking at profiles on Monster.com in hopes of finding someone to fill the empty desk across from me.

and I have to finish the next chapter of Coming Back so I can post tonight....

I am now anticipating the next chapter of Coming Back, woo hoo! I'm also working on a graphic award for the first fic challenge.

[GayNow]

I am also reminding myself that I owe Sally SCADS of feedback for Ubercon...cuz I've been reading, but haven't been able to reply. But once Coming Back is posted, I'm on feedback giving patrol this weekend.

And I'm wishing I could leave work RIGHT NOW!

[Auburn]

Trying to write feedback replies seeing as I haven't done that in a while (apologies) but I keep getting distracted.
I'm a little bit pissed off too and a little bit bored. Good job there's a pub downstairs

[JustSkipIt]

Just stopped writing. Waiting for my wife to stop playing "Barmaid Betty" or something like that and go to bed...

Wishing for a Coming Back update.

[Emms]

hmm.....I'm waiting rather impatiently to read Carleen's update...

watching Comedy Central and trying hard not to fall asleep. Yep....that about sums it up.

[GayNow]

hmm.....I'm waiting rather impatiently to read Carleen's update...

Woo Hoo, then we're really getting somewhere!!

Um.....I'm still watching comedy central and trying not to fall asleep..

I'm thinking, Queen Carleen owes me a whole state (take your pick, I'd say Texas or California) worth of fb for KR. But then again she co-wrote ep 10, beta'ed ep 11 and will do the same for ep 12, so she's forgiven.

Waiting for gf to finish watching her Korean drama, then off to run errands for the day -- my bank account will be much depleted by tonight. :( Looking forward to having dinner with the in-laws tonight, even though they aren't actually aware that they are the in-laws.

Hey all,
I have just come back from a great night out, there is a gourguous woman who has just started at my course, she's new to my town and we get on like a house on fire....with a barrel full of kerosene in every room, (really well in other words) and tonight I was sitting in the middle of a town square/street/mall...thing having a quiet smoke while my friend finished of her wine and she (the hottie from school) was randomly across the street, she came over to say hi and she sat with us while she waited for her friend to arrive, My friend (Bless her cotton socks) ended up taking of because she was late for something...'late'...got to love when your best friend knows when to bail!!
and me and this hottie sat and chatted for an hour and a half, it was cold so we ended up in a bar having a drink, and I met her friends who seemed loverly and now im home...compleatly fasinated with Adidas's new shoe....it thinks for itself!!
its great, and the add's not bad for it either,
the shoe has probably been out for a good six months everywhere else in the world but its new and shiny in New Zealand, and as a magpie by nature its in my interests to check it out,

thats my story and Im sticking to it,
(Half of this probably should be in the happy feelings thread but hey its marginaly relevent,

(please dont shoot me moderators,,,)
night all, hope your day/night/year is going swimingly for you,

I'm keeping my niece overnight and dreading the job of clearing off the bed in the guest room so she'll have someplace to sleep.

ETA now I'm singing Baby Balooga (spelling?) over and over again because it's so adorable the way she's dancing around the room.

I'm steeping a pot of chamomile tea and trying to shake off the cappucino that I had with dinner. I've been breaking my no-coffee-after-noon rule for about four straight days.

[fun in dysfuntion]

I'm making a tomato sauce with 5lbs of romas that I picked from my garden that will be part of a eggplant parmigiana I'm making tomorrow and simmering chermoulah on the side. I love to cook.

[HalfCamel]

I'm watching Nip/Tuck on FX. Great show. And there's two more on the way! Yay!

God, I wish I could cook. I can barely boil water...

I just spent the last hour rearranging the guest room, so that it is completely child proof with a two year old who's idea of helping is to stand in the middle of the room shouting "I did it Naunny! I did it Naunny!" (she calls me Naunny...I have know Idea why, cause it's not even close to what my name is. But my theory is that she started out trying to say "Auntie" but it came out Naunny) while throwing various Items of clothing around the room.

So now, she's in bed watching The Land Before Time....and I'm downstairs taking a much needed break. Also, I'm thinking about working on an update to one of my fics.

[the Prey]

What I'm doing right now? Listening and singing along to "Get me off" by Basement Jaxx and biting my fingernails (bad habit, I know...)

[Emms]

Right now, this very moment...I am working on the next update for Catching Sunflowers. (well...okay, not this very moment, cause hello...here typing this..) I really can't believe how much progress I'm making on it too. Woo Hoo

Okay...that's it for now. Pleasant day everyone.

Just got home from hanging out at my cousin's pool...got thoroughly soaked by my 3-year-old cousin, even though I did NOT go swimming...but he's so cute and insisted that I keep throwing him in...I couldn't resist...even if he dripped all over me everytime he got out to be thrown back in.

Now, I'm sitting here chatting with watson and Cam...will be beta-ing updates for each of them in a short time. But, mostly, I'm just relaxing and enjoying my friends.

Carleen

And YAY for Catching Sunflowers!

ETA now I'm singing Baby Balooga (spelling?) over and over again because it's so adorable the way she's dancing around the room.

Emms! I can't tell you how often I've had that song stuck in my head lately! My niece got a book with that song in it sometime last month. I keep finding myself randomly singing it..over and over and over. (in the shower....driving to the store....grilling dinner...etc.) I can totally imagine how adorable it is watching your niece dancing around the room to it -- my niece likes to cock her head to the side while she dances around singing it to herself. Sooooooo cute. My favorite Beluga moment was when she came over and helped me strum the guitar while we sang the song -- she did a great job strumming right in rhythm...had auntie all welled up.

To get this post back on topic, I'm currently....

catching up on the Kitten, just finishing up a bowl of cinnamon Life cereal, having some coffee (iced w/shot of espresso) and trying to wake myself up and get my lazy butt upstairs into the office and get going on work. Also wondering why cat food (wet) has to be so STINKY!

I am having lunch at my desk at work. Lunch today is: cottage cheese, yogurt (both those little 4oz jobbers), a hard-boiled egg white, string cheese, Ritz crackers, and an apple. (Basically whatever was handy and grabbable as I tried to finish up getting ready because I was LATE AGAIN leaving for work.)

Oh yeah - and a fun size Milky Way!
