Stalking via webcam

  • Nov. 11th, 2009 at 3:59 AM
David is on Absolute Radio right now: audio and webcam. My first-ever live Dave!

(Watching the webcam, David suddenly looks very surprised)
[03:49] Pam: lol, surprise buttsecks face
[03:49] snowgrouse: ahahaha
[03:49] snowgrouse: ahahahahaaa
[03:49] snowgrouse: what
[03:49] snowgrouse: surprise attack
[03:49] Pam: he just looked really startled in one frame
[03:49] snowgrouse: yes!
[03:49] snowgrouse: doesn't know WTF

(Christian wants Dave's shirt with a fish on it)
[03:52] Pam: you know that someone has already found that photo
[03:52] snowgrouse: yes.
[03:52] Pam: and posted it to the internet
[03:52] snowgrouse: ahahahaaaaaaaaa

(David is accused of giving his free cheese to some kids)
[03:54] Pam: lol what
[03:54] snowgrouse: ahahahaaa
[03:54] Pam: free cheese
[03:54] snowgrouse: too cute
[03:54] Pam: that's why he was startled!
[03:54] Pam: lol

[03:55] Pam: fangirls everywhere are already ordering him giant wheels of double Glouchester
[03:55] snowgrouse: aaaaaaaahhhhahahhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[03:55] snowgrouse: I'll put Finnish cheese on him.

New reality show idea!

  • Nov. 10th, 2009 at 11:13 PM
It is called "Top Tutor." Fifteen tutors tutor increasingly horrible students, while my boss and I critique them, and each round someone gets eliminated. Tutor R, our resident actor who relishes torturing our trainees with her incredibly authentic impressions of our worst students, offered to play the student, but I think it'd be funnier with real kids. [info] fuzzyboo03 says I should film a pilot.

This weekend was nice. I did nothing except watch TV and read fic. (Well, I did do laundry and take my car in to be serviced. But there was a glorious lack of gym-going and any sort of PhD application progress.)

P.S. Jon Stewart, you know I love you, but that segment on the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall just sucked. You have awesome comic timing. Your team . . . less so.

P.P.S. My arms hurt like hell tonight at weight-lifting class, and it was not good pain. Owies. And I missed NCIS for it, too. *pouts* On the upside, [info - personal] twitchylizard made homemade mac 'n' cheese tonight!

P.P.P.S. President Obama, you also get a "you know I love you, but" today. Your incredibly cowardly approach to the issue of abortion access (or lack thereof) in the health care bill seriously pisses me off. Many other people have detailed the ways in which your handling of this situation has, quite simply, failed, but the sad part is that it doesn't even surprise me. You have shown time and again that your empathy, which I believe to be both very real and one of your greatest assets, is stretched thin when expected to extend to queer people and women who need/want abortions. You simply do not get it.

I think I'm using this icon too much, but it's just. so. pretty.

Just watched the 2nd ep of this season and I couldn't be more in love with this show if Coach himself offered to do the nasty with me!!!! There are a few emails I need to read (I'm looking at you, overnighter and elzed) but I had to set my thoughts down first, before I let other comments sidetrack me.

here be the spoilers )

An interview with Michael Dougherty tells how X-Men 3 would have gone, if he and Bryan Singer had made it, in regards to Rogue’s characterization and Phoenix.

Eastwick has been cancelled. Maybe Jaime Ray Newman will end up back on Eureka now.

There’s now a rumor going around that the Black Cat might be in the fourth Spider-Man movie. Depending on which site mentions it, it’s supposedly either Rachel McAdams or Romola Garai trying for the role.

Two Updates

  • Nov. 10th, 2009 at 5:09 PM
Well, actually, more than 2, but it's to 2 fics... lol In both cases, you can find the whole story by clicking on the title, and the new chapters by clicking on the part number.

Good Enough (The OC/Brothers & Sisters, Ryan is the Illegitamate Walker)
Part Four and Part Five

Beautiful World (The OC/Gossip Girl, Ryan is Lily and Rufus' son and while getting to know his newfound family, he runs into his ex-lover, Chuck Bass)
Part Two and Part Three

What? An update? Seriously?

  • Nov. 10th, 2009 at 3:56 PM
I haven't read LJ in days. I'm not sure if it's because I'm so busy or what, but I'm sure it doesn't help that I was in Canada for 2 days and then didn't get home until after 11 last night because of my screenwriting class. :) Anything you want me to see?

The classes are going well. I'm feeling pretty good about it, and I'm starting to make friends in the class. This is a good thing, since we're going to be together through the end of the fourth course, in July. :)

Work is... well, work. I love having my student teacher, and she's a huge help. She's really nice, and we get along great; we're very much alike, actually. Still, more than a little part of me would really love it if I could get someone to support me so I could write full-time. *g* Then again, who wouldn't?

Got to get up to continue making dinner soon; I'm making baked potato soup, and have the potatoes baking even as I type. I've cooked some bacon to add, and I've got some scallions as well. It's going to be yummy...and it's a perfect day for it: 46F and raining. Damp and grey and ucky. :P

Wow, no wonder I haven't posted in so long; my life is seriously boring! What's up with you?

Beta request

  • Nov. 10th, 2009 at 9:42 PM
Hello! Having never ventured into the wonderful world of fanfiction (or fandom, really!), I have somehow found myself the proud owner of a Merlin AU which was originally going to be a couple of thousand words, but is 7K and counting. Erm... oops?

Anyway, I am very new to all this, so I am looking for a lovely beta reader!

Title: Work in progress.
Genre: It's a vaguely funny, fluffy ball of angsty slashiness. That's the plan, anyway.
Pairing, or characters: Merlin/Arthur. Gwen, Lance and Morgana all feature.
Type of beta you'd like: Plot and consistency mostly, and someone to bounce ideas off - but spelling and grammar is always important.
Length, or word count: It's 7000 at the moment, and I suspect it will end up triple that length - but it's a work in progress and I probably do an average of 3000 words a week.
Short Summary: A congenitally unlucky Merlin finally gets a job at a huge London-based conglomerate headed up by the infamously tyrannical Uther Pendragon and his equally infamous playboy son, Arthur. Being Merlin, he manages to thoroughly insult Arthur on his first day and spends his first week waiting to be fired. But Arthur has his own problems to worry about, because he shows no signs of meeting the princess Uther would like him to meet... and he's not really sure that he wants to.

ETA: I should have added that there will, at some point, be explicit sexual scenes. And probably quite a lot of them.

AUTHOR: [info]sensiblecat from a concept by Charles Dickens

RATING: PG

SPOILERS: The first chapter references filming reports for the last Special. Otherwise AU from TCI. Brief refs to TW/CoE

CHARACTERS: Tenth Doctor, Rose, Jack, Mickey, Jackie, Harriet Jones, The Brigadier

xp'd to [info]better_with_3   [info]time_and_chips   [info]dwfiction [info]dwliterotica and [info]thebitterrose

SYNOPSIS: On the eve of his regeneration, the Doctor gets a second chance to change his biggest mistake. What if he'd brought Jack back from Satellite Five?

CREDITS: First and foremost, [info]wendymr for being everything a beta should be - and more.

Second, Charles Dickens for writing the greatest of all Christmas stories (excepting the original one). It has been an inspiration to me since my childhood and revisiting it as I worked on this was an unexpected pleasure.
And finally, whoever made this icon. It's perfect for this story but I don't know whose work it is. Please, if you recognise it, shout out. I always credit my illustrators.
