You guys!

I know, I know, it's been weeks, and even before that it had been months and am I even still on LJ anymore WTF? But even though I should be studying for the Bar (which I take next week and did you know that I actually have to remember everything I've learned in law school, WTF?) I had to post and say I just ate one of the shittiest sandwiches I've ever eaten.

LOL, I know, I'm posting about a bad sandwich. Such is my life. And it was really bad. You know how it is when you're expecting a certain kind of sandwich that you've eaten many times before and then you bite into it and it's just this side of gross but you don't stop eating because you're super hungry and your mom bought it for you so it would be rude not to eat it (even though you're all alone and eating it in front of your computer). Yeah, it was disgusting and I finally had to stop and eat a cookie just to get the taste out of my mouth.

So, yeah, it was Not Good. So Not Good that I felt the need to share my disappointment and disgust with you all. I'm a giver like that. ;-)

In other news, I'm super behind on most every fannish type thing in my life (as I am behind in most everything in my life, fannish or otherwise). My SPN give-a-fuck has been broken, which is sad, though that hasn't stopped me from wasting precious hours re-reading Dean/Cas stories that I've read 30 times before. I take the Bar in less than a week and while I've scraped together enough money to pay rent through March if I don't find a job in the next couple of weeks I'm going to have to move into the basement room at FGC (which isn't the worst thing in the world but, seriously, I need a job). I'd be more upset with myself but I'm giving myself a little leeway considering how enourmously shitty I've felt for the past few months. Seriously, everytime I think I understand the fibro and how it impacts my life it goes and throws a new curveball my way.

In sum: I ate a crappy sandwich. Being an adult is hard work (and srs bznz). And I would much rather be reading Dean/Cas, even though my SPN investment is less than existent. Also, my one great dream for after the Bar is to be able to create something, anything, because this creative drought has become dire. Oh, and to interact more on LJ, something at which I've monumentally sucked for going on half a year, at least.

Good luck next week! I'm sure you'll pass with flying colors.

Thank you! And from your lips (or, rather, fingers) to God's ears, as they say.

Thinking good testy thoughts for you next week!and very sorry about the sandwich.I had one of those in October and am stil haunted,

I, too, have lost my SPN give-a-fuck. I choose to revel in it's glory days.

Am frealking out a bit. Just felt something new, painful, and contracty. Magic 8 Ball said this weekend! If true, let it be known that I started labor in your LJ.

I may have just declared that we In Group will be rewatching the Great Winchester Arc of Angst at the next possible opportunity. I can't believe it, but I think it's been something like two years since I've watched Dead Man's Blood highlights followed up by a Salvation-Devil's Trap-In My Time of Dying marathon. Aaah, for the good old days when semi trucks ran into the Impala and John Winchester was a son of a bitch.

OMG MUNCHY P!!! He could come at any moment! Even right this second! And if I'm this excited I can only imagine how you must feel. I seriously can't wait to meet him.

WE ALL KNOW THAT MAGIC 8 BALL IS NEVER WRONG!!!!!!

I think I might have done an abbreviated arc of angst this summer, but I could use another go-round. I haven't even downloaded last night's episode and my external hard drive is getting no power and I've got no space left on my laptop, so I don't know when I will watch it. Meh.

Apparently Munchy P was just punching me really hard in the cervix last night. Not labor. Hurt like hell, though. FYI kid, please don't do that anymore. Still, there are 48ish more hours in which the Magic 8 Ball could still be right! (Though, honestly, Tuesday would be better for me--I'm getting my hair colored Monday and if I have a baby before then, I will be entirely gray for the rest of my life.

I wouldn't worry about downloading last night's ep. It wasn't that great. Mannequins killed people and there was one shot that made me say "The angels have the phonebox!" But my fellow watchers didn't get the reference. I am a little sad that it seems that my SPN fannish days have ended, but such is the Circle of Fandom.

That's a bad Munchy P! Stop hitting your mother! I highly approve of you going into labor on Tuesday, not just for the sake of your hair color (though that is most important) but because that's the first day of the Bar exam and, I don't know, it seems appropriate somehow. If our lives were a movie it would totally be the cut-back-and-forth scene where all the audience hears is the orchestral score.

Magic 8 Ball! Make that happen!

Having nothing to do with your post AT ALL -

The Nephew had us watch How To Train Your Dragon and a) Ferguson I luv U and b) the chick in it is so kickass and so me (I have that outfit, I swear!) and I got really really worried towards the end. Good movie.

THEY JUST WENT TO JESSICA ALBA'S HOUSE!! - What? You don't need this comment to make sense to other people, do you?

I really, really wanted to write you a story for your bar examing but my shoulder has been hurting so bad that I haven't managed to write at all in the last two weeks. I can't believe you can't spend the whole weekend vegging out with us post-bar-exam-chill-fest and instead have to do lame family things!

Um, okay then, I'm sure I'll call you before you even read this. lol

[liptonrm.livejournal.com]

OMG, I totally rented How to Train Your Dragon from Redbox last week and then I didn't watch it because I was all MUST STUDY HOLY CRAP MUST STUDY. And now I wish I had, but it sounds like you own it so I'll just have to borrow your copy.

HOLY CRAP JESSICA ALBA'S HOUSE! Were Valarie Rae and Jensen there? Did Drama and Jensen get into a bitch off? Was it hilarious?

If the universe were just I would be able to spend all of the next weekend vedging out with you guys. Stupid family stuff, don't they know I'd rather be having drinks with Lloyd and watching you and Misha run by with a goat? Come on!

I hope your shoulder feels better, not just because stories written by you for me are awesome, but mostly because sore shoulder suck a lot.

Call me!

Things you totally talked about with my sister earlier -

We own HTTYD, so we should watch it without the kid prattling in my ear about whether riding a dragon or Appa to school is a better option.

THERE WAS A POOL AND ALL I COULD THINK WAS, "HOMG JENSEN AND DRAMA BITCH FIGHT IN THE POOL!!!!"

OMG, I AM WATCHING FIRST SEASON, THERE WOULDN'T BE A MISHA YET, BUT I JUST THOUGHT OF THE MOST AWESOME THING - HOW MUCH DO YOU LOVE JOSH JACKSON?

My shoudler feels better, but I shall not tempt fate by overdoing myself. I see the doc on like the 4th or something and then probably more PT and shit. Shall I post some SpretendN in your honor instead?

GOOD LUCK AND STUFF!!
