sausages [drabble exercise]
She greeted breakfast with shoulders slack and hands on her bathrobe collar.
“Hey, are you feeling all right?” He knit his brow and set their plates on the table.
“I’m fine.” She lowered herself into her chair.
“No you’re not,” he probed. “What happened?”
“I had that dream again.”
“Which one?” He asked through...

photophobia [drabble exercise]
His tossing and turning awoke her after four.
She reached over and switched on the lamp. “What the bloody hell is—”
“Oh god,” he groaned. “Turn it off.” He curled up like an anguished fetus.
“Are you having another—”
“Whisper…” he begged.
She restored darkness and got to her feet. When her eyes had acclimated she...

out of curiosity
The hard drive might not be acting up now, but this is not something I’d like to ignore. So, on that note, how many of you would be willing to pay five bucks for a 72 DPI sketch/quick-colored drawing? You know, like this, or this. The kind of stuff I throw up on my art tag when I’m bored.
Is five too much or not enough? Let me know. The 72 DPI’s non-negotiable, though. What...

falling out of mad love with crazy ivan
Today was one of those days. Everybody who studies a foreign language has them. The days where you walk into class and the entire language has flown out of your head. The alphabet is moonspeak. The grammar is lost on you. You can’t remember what the most basic of vocabulary means.
This is getting more and more frequent, though. And that’s the problem. The first year of Russian is a...

The world is filled with idealists who believe in truth, justice and all that stuff and devote their lives to fighting for it. And then the world keeps letting them down. For them, Being Good Sucks. But rather than giving up on their goals, they replace their shiny armor with a full plate of pure cynicism. These characters realize they live in a dark, cruel and brutal world and choose to fight...

I went to my mother’s minister’s retirement luncheon on Saturday. Which was, to say the least, weird, because you all know I identify as an apatheist. But more than that, I identify as a person who listens to wise people, and he is one. After it was over I hung around after people had cleared out. “Sorry to stalk you around,” I said - “but I wanted to give you a...

UPDATE:
Took the computer in to my tech guru friend’s house on Saturday afternoon. After unscrewing the back and blowing enough compressed air into it to float the house from Up, he was like, “naw, dude, it’s not your thermal paste. It’s not your dust. It might be your driver.”
So we tried uninstalling the AMD driver and all hell broke loose when he tried to install the...

If you actually think physical attractiveness is important in a relationship, you are not shallow. To make a good relationship last you have to be physically and mentally attracted to the person. I am tired of seeing people being called shallow simply because they are looking for someone attractive to them, mentally and physically.
You are shallow when physical attractiveness is the...

With the rise of the social network has spawned a portion of the internet dedicated to “microblogging.” These communities, formed around gangly hybrids of blog capacity and interpersonal communication, have become havens for those interested in sharing material of more substance than a casual “status update.” The group observed here is just one facet of the popular website...

[Macheath] So long ago, her soul and mine entwined. We shared all things together, happily.
I used my mind and I protected her. She used her body and supported me.

$20 for an ENT to say my ears aren’t infected now and probably weren’t to begin with, but my tonsils are big so watch for infection oh and possibly TMJ so, fuck, it could be musculoskeletal for all he knows, but y’know I’m pretty congested too so if I wanted to load up on allergy meds before flying/going out in the cold that might be worth a shot. Also some people just have...

a few words on the "turning gay characters...
In general, I dislike screwing with canon sexuality, because, well, that’s not how life works. If you’re a woman and want to sleep with a Kinsey 6 man, you can’t rub a lamp and make him interested. But I afford fictional characters the same philosophy I apply to nonfictional ones. With that in mind, let’s move on.
I see the logic of those who claim canonical tinkering...

you are seagreen #2E8B57
Your dominant hues are cyan and green. Although you definitely strive to be logical you care about people and know there’s a time and place for thinking emotionally. Your head rules most things but your heart rules others, and getting them to meet in the middle takes a lot of your energy some days. Your saturation level is higher than average - You know what you...

For the record, I’m not just reblogging this because of The Kid Problem. I think this is touching on another, greater problem - not trusting women to make informed decisions, especially if they aren’t the ones you would make - and...

task-oriented
Kaidan: I just... permission to speak candidly, Commander?
Irina: Do your worst.
Kaidan: Well, it's... it's about Noveria, actually. I thought you pushed both of us pretty hard. Maybe too hard.
Irina: It's called being task-oriented. It's how you get the bloody job done.
Kaidan: Until it becomes ruthless.
Irina: What are you playing at?
Kaidan: I've seen it happen, all right? A CO stops seeing the boots on the ground as people. They're so caught up in the ends of war that they lose touch with the ones fighting it. We're a team, Commander - not pawns.
Irina: You've got balls of steel to be talking to me like that.
Kaidan: The old implants'll give 'em to you.
Irina: [eyes him up and down] I guess -so-.
