This semester, between my 5 English classes I will have written 18 papers.

18!

And you know what?

I'm not sick of it yet. :3

This winter break I hope to read Dante's Inferno, The Awakening, and anything by Virginia Woolf.

I also plan to exploit the fact that my little cousin is getting wii fit for Christmas, so I can finally return 's game and balance board.

Hey, , remember when I started working 40 hour weeks at TJ's to save up for printing a comic book and making swag?? WHEN ARE WE DOING THAT, I WONDER. I know a crafty lady who can teach us to screenprint, for I think the small fee of BOOZE MAYBE. Also she's nice and offered like a million years ago, I was just a sourpuss and chickened out.

Apparently having completed one cosplay prop like months ago has really boosted my ego. Whenever someone's like, "I can do something you can't" or "I have boobs and you don't," I'm like, "Oh yeah well my cosplay prop can beat up your dad."

Par's currently hiding in the basement. I can't wait to move out and leave him out in the open. Some people have ferns, I have giant blood covered keys.

Ok, I have to go eat my first meal of the day and maybe play Megaten and see if they disbanded my clan LOLZZZZZZ... D8<

On one hand I'm really proud that my fanfic is finally starting to fit together into a cohesive story...but on the other hand...this thing is definitely eating up too much of my time, especially when I'm still online at this hour forcing myself to work through computer-in-the-dark induced nausea to write a few more pages...

I think I wrote about 15 pages today, which is probably more like 10 pages since I'll go back and rework things so the five huge chunks I'm working on will eventually fit together. :\

I have a ton of work ahead of me, and it's sort of sad because I seriously doubt I'll ever muster the gall to share it anywhere.

I also started working on the TRUE introduction for my huge fiction story, mostly because egged me on when I went to NY, and I promised I'd have the first chapter for her to read when I return home after Christmas. I dunno if that'll happen, but at least things are moving along. The first chapter is the most dangerous, imho, because I have to be careful how...well...anyway...

tldr;
This is the part of being a geek that I'm not proud of.

Soooooo...I sat down last night to do something for a friend...and...

My tablet pen is...jammed. Stuck on "touch". I don't understand how this happened, or how to fix it. 8|

...rggggh...

This is an even more tremendous set back than my own innate procrastination instinct.

The good news is my piercing seems to be healing alright. I think the barbell is a liiiiittle too short, but unless it causes any trouble I'm fine with it. It's gonna be fun deciding what jewelry to put in it when it's healed. 8D

In other news...things with me and seem to be back to normal...hee. I thought it would be a rough transition after all the drama, but things are calming down...*looks for wood to knock on*

Me and have the most dynamic love-hate-mostly-love relationship EVER.

Today, after I dragged my little sister on an adventure in Chinatown to fetch Fay Da pastries for , I met up with and we decided to get matching piercings. Oh happy day.

So my piercing count it back up to 12. If I get the MATCHING piercing for this one, I'll be at my lucky number 13. LET'S SEE HOW THIS ONE HEALS. I am a little anxious. The piercing itself was just lip-bitey hurt, but it's really starting to ache. I am gonna need to take a loooong rest tomorrow with a shotglass full of warm sea salt water on it. Booze might also be nice. I'm so tired. Sleeping on this couch all week has been a shitfest. >

In all, though, this has been a pretty good Thanksgiving trip home to NY.

Totally stolen from , and it helped kill time while I waited for my "partner" for my Antony and Cleopatra presentation to answer my frantic emails.

I donated blood yesterday for 's Charity War.
