 So I can't decide if it's just me having the emotional hangover, or if I have to tell some people it's been lovely and I have to go because I'm feeling so nihilist and scooped out at the moment. Or I need to be up there interacting with my family because it has been awhile. And food. I may need food. 

I know that it could be the latter because I was watching a video of this kid who put those weird expandable bubbles in his bath and filled it up with water. They got all huge and he screwed up and not only backed up his house, but three houses, then the entire block with them and I cackled HARD. Oh my God I was dying because it was so stupid and he knows he's in shit too. Said so in French.

And I'm glad I had the foresight of looking up more communities here on dreamwidth cause I have been getting good recs. I'm going old school and reading all the SGA fics that I can find. It's quite soothing, actually. 

Other than that, doing more laundry again. And waiting for my hair to dry. Just washed it and I figured out that if I put loads of conditioner on it before I wash it, I can get the castor oil out faster. I'm trying it out since so many swear by it. I have a big bottle of Argan and Castor Oil to use up so we'll see how that works.

I'm going to re-read "The Fiery Cross" and be pissed that they won't continue the TV tie in editions for lame reasons. Dudes, you KNEW they were huge ass books and that there were eight of them! And halfway through you just go "Meh." I'm annoyed. I was looking forward to getting those because I like tie-in novels. So sue me. I hate that they changed the covers to the dull one colour with a symbol. I liked the old ones that I started reading the series with. At least the UK ones are a bit better. Anyways. 

Must be getting back to normal since I can get annoyed at book series covers and having them matched. 

I'm now realising that I had an idea for writing a short Outlander fanfic for ages and I kind of want to get back to it. It's just one of those whatif things I keep on mentally riffing about. Anyways. Off to get dinner. 

 It's that time of the month, but this is the only time that I've had to actually want to either write or read something. So I'm trying to get two one shots sorted out. One is a Christmas present and the other is just for my own amusement. 

I read the Republic one shot regarding Qui-Gon and I don't want to do too many spoilers of the issue because it's actually pretty good, but that is the basis of the other one shot I'm writing and whether Obi-Wan would fall in love with someone like Satine and Padme was the one that I thought would he'd fall in love with. So that's what I'm trying to write at this moment. 

So far, it's not working out just yet. I will try that comic sans trick and see if it works out. I am not planning to write a long story. Just a one shot for each of the stories I'm planning. 

Anyways, back to work. I'm hoping to write at least 500 words for each tonight and see what else can happen.
