Hey you!

How come *you* didn't tell me it was daylights whatever the fuck last night?

I got up , looked at my bedside clock, it says 9:30. I look at my computer, it says 10:30. I almost thought I was still sleeping or having a Twilight Zone Moment.

You're fired.

Oh-Kay!

*ahem*

Gather round, people, gather round. I'm posting the first list of the quarter, thought you might be interested. Since it is Sunday and I slacked off on Friday and Saturday, I decided that I need to abuse myself today. Though, not in a dirty way

CLEAN

Clean

clean some more

a load or two of laundry - must have it finished by friday (eep!)

reorganize my bookcase and movie collection

clean out my "pantry" and reorganize it

clean out my closet, put some winter stuff away, and reorganize it (especially the shoes! I'm sick of tripping and nearly killing myself)

get all my class notes and such organized for the week

read for research methods, due tuesday

read for substance abuse, due thursday

pound out a few poster sketches for the cruise if there's time left

Oh, and also, two other things: I know I'm not being a good friend - there's tons of fic that has been backlogged forever now that I haven't gotten to read (Ame's HMTMKMKM, SnL, and is there a new chapter of Shadowlands that I misplaced?), and hopefully this week I'll get to that.

The other thing is - thanks for nice thoughts last night, I'm over it today.

holy crap!

just took an inventory of all the empty bottles scattered throughout my room...

I've drank 21 bottles of evian in last two days.

EEP!

I've got an itch...

and I want to scratch it. It's my drabble itch. I hadn't realized it's been so long since I've done any.

So - drabble requests and prompts anyone?

Sound?
Color?
Scent?
Taste?

Some new pieces.

Just finished a new series I've been working on, thought I'd share the previews with you. Please please please, feedback would be great. I haven't done much imaging lately, I think I might be a little rusty.

So, I present:

( Midnight Lights )

Drabble the first

Just something my brain was screaming at me to write. It's odd and incoherrant, but I'll post it anyway.

Memories flicker through my mind and across my vision like a broken projector film. The ancient sepia frames have rotted away in places, leaving only darkness - the darkness that seeps into my soul while I slumber. The bright-dark-bright-dark wrapping light is driving me to madness, and I feel myself scream at the phantoms that haunt me. Phantoms of smiles and memories of tears I never cried are creeping into the silence I once knew. Nightmares of children I've forgotten and of a life perished before it was truly realized is grating on my mind. If only I could forget.

Well that was dumb.

Just finished Bartleby the Scrivener. Boy, that was dumb. No actual conclusion, and just a guy that won't leave? Am I missing something? And dead letters? Mental note: Kick Williams on Tuesday.
