I got busy then tired lastnight after we got back to Otakon, then my phone started to go dead and I had left my charger in the hotel room so I didn't get round to recapping the rest of my day.

So, here we are at Day 2 of Otakon. It's about 5:40 on Sunday and I find myself back in the Panel 5 room (I found it, it wasn' t in the Sheraton or the BCC.. It was in the Hilton. I'm waiting for this panel to start which is Anime: Myths and Legends.

Last night I Spent some time at one of the concerts but I didn't go to the rave. I spent some time in the gaming room but didn't play any videogames. I spend about 20 min in the Yaoi-ing Game which was totally awesome. and I made it to the Fanfic writing Panel which was fun.

Got somemore swag, an Hello Kitty doll and A Gundam Model (Gundam Wing Zero custom) so now I'll have a mini Heero to go with my Mini Duo and Mini Wufei.

And now the Panel started and I'm typing through it... How rude!

I'll do some more catching up later.

I'm not at Otakon anymore. We came back to pick up some more friends... I'm going to miss the How to be a Samurai in 1 hr Panel. :-P

I wanted to sign up for the LARP but Duo Maxwell was already taken and Chang Wufei wasn't an available character I didn't think I could handle Heero Yuy... was considering Angel (from Big O) Lucca (from Chrono Trigger) Nuriko (from Fushigi Yuugi) or Zack (from Final Fantasy VII)... I don't think the creaters of the game knew Zack's last name is Fair *tee-hee* It might not be too late to sign up when we get back, but then again, it probably will be too late. :-/

I really hope we get back in time to find the room for Panel 5 so I don't miss the Fanfiction panel.

Now, I wait.

I totally bought a Yaoi paddle ^_~ I'll post a picture as soon as they upload to photobucket. Also, 4 Yaoi Fan Manga (will find correct spelling later)

and there's a Yaoi panel and a Fanfiction panel later tonight in a panel room that I can not find.

More later

Actually, it's about 10:30a.m. friday the 17th of July 2009 and I am at my first Convention. I'm sitting in a line at Otakon... waiting for the dealer room room to open. I'm not sure why cuz I don't have any money to spend... but this is where all the cool kids are :-P

I could be at the Otaku Breakfast, I'm kinda hungry.
I could be leaning to play Go (I kinda already have the basics though.

Could be watching a movie...(Blue Dragon is about to start) actually I have my Ickle-pod... Hey the Gundam Panel just started (I'm wearing my Deathscythe Tee Shirt)

Mostly I'm just sitting in line.

I have this long LONG post to make about the Harry Potter movie which I saw last night at a 12:01 show. But I'm at work and I am still feeling effeccts of the long night... I will get to it tomorrow probably... got a lot to do tonight... :-/

Actually I spent last night and this morning editing chapters 8-10 of Dangerous Bonds... taking out some unnecessary bits cleaning up the dialogue tags...

For the most part those chapters were already better than chapters 6 and 7 which have been irritating me the more and more I think about it. It's like I've done this before? read the previous chapters and then gone "OH NOes" and fixed the next part in shame. I really wanna go back and edit them but at the same time if I go back there's no guarantee that I will push forward.

Bah. In fact, I know I have done that before. like the bit where every chapter was going to start with a thought/thought speech... until I realized it was getting a bit ridiculous and inappropriate (plus they started all starting with "That"... or rather //That\\ *cough* talk about redundant.

Right now, what seems to be bothering me about chapters 6 and 7 (probably the some of the previous chapters as well) is the muddled POV. The story should be solidly from Duo's POV until the end of chapter 7 til the link right... it's kinda not. Some of the prose are a little purple

(holy shit! side tracked to say that I love how at the end of Dodge Ball: A True Underdog Story when they bring out the treasure chest with the 5 million winnings in it, the box actually says "Deus Ex Machina" on it. Totally Awesome.)

umm, purple prose and I kinda feel like I could have written the Relena subplot a little better... it's rubbing me the wrong way... *shrug*

I still have that other thing which should be posted now... gosh darn it sometimes it's harder to edit than write.

I'm a big old baby. ^_^

OK so yesterday I was on fanfiction.net looking at Dangerous Bonds to see the last chapter I posted... and then I decided to read the last two posted chapters (chapter 6 and 7) to try to get a feel for where the story is so that I can get started on posting the next chapter...


I really wanted to beat my head into the desk. I dunno what was going on but I definitely feel like I dropped the ball...


wait wait wait... I don't want to complain about my story right now, I will fix it when I have the next opportunity

WHERE IS THE ERIC/LAFAYETTE SLASH PEOPLE?</h1>

Oh, my.... I really really am well in truly interested in the answer to that question right now...

No seriously, I'm gonna get to work on some ficing.

Apparently Dreamwidth hates whatever version of Internet Explorer I'm running on my computer and mildly dislikes the version I'm running on my cell phone. Unfortunately my lunchbreak should have been over like 10 minutes ago so I don't have time to sort out the problem on mu phone and it seems to run on firefox fine at home, so *shrug*

I'm just studiously avoiding going back in the building and back to work right now... which will result in me being short on hours this week... and as an unfortunate side effect... short on pay :-/. But it is a beautiful BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL day outside. damn it's nice.

Couple of things before I go...

I have a wedding to go to on the 4th instead of a cookout.

I vaguely thinking about getting a Twitter and Delicious account.... but I'm not sure why...

My brain started writing PINTO SLASH LAST NIGHT WHILE I WAS TRYING TO GO TO SLEEP...RPS! omg I am almost appalled... but it was kinda amusing with Zack being drunk and it was kinda hot... but it's rps ... I so don't approve.

Ireally have to go to work... 30 min is approaching an hour... :-P

I still can't believe he's dead. I just had a moment like... five minutes ago where I dropped everything I was doing and shook my head for a minute. It's crazy...

also, not what this post was going to be about when I thought about starting it 60 seconds ago...

I Laughed my ass off.

No, I'm not kidding I pulled that off of iTunes, it is currently the top review for the video All In by The Grouch and Eligh (it's the free on iTunes selection for this week)

I just though that was hilarious.

Also, iTunes is conspiring with ... umm Death? to kill my bank account slowly $0.99 $1.29 at a time.

and yeah, what is up with more and more songs being $1.29

n/m I'm supposed to be a sleep... and I'm sick so I need to go to sleep right now.

So... I kinda disappeared for a whole month, and then that last post was kinda eyebrow raising... sorry.

( So here's what happened. )

Ok... but that's not the reason I disappeared for a month. That reason was Star Trek

OMG!! That movie was amazing! I have never loved Star Trek more than I love it right now and not just this movie but TOS and TNG too (I only still have a healthy respect for Voyager and DS9 and I can't do anything with Enterprise) But that movie... ohhh that movie... I had this big ole post I wanted to do about why it was so awesome and how much I loved it and why J.J. Abrams is my Hero! And ZACHARY F-ING QUINTO FTW! But then I got distracted by the Fandom!!!!!11

See... the amazing thing about this fandom... something that's never happened to me before... I don't have an OTP... I don't have an OT3... I don't have a pairing preference... it is literally ALL GOOD (Mpreg is still a ridiculous squick for me *just shakes head*) I mean logically, by my previous pairings I should be all about Kirk/Spock right? I mean the rivalry, the control issues, the smoking hot guys! Guh! But also I am all about Spock/Uhura and Kirk/McCoy and any pairing there of. I love the rest of the crew Scotty and Chekov and Sulu and even a random secondary character like Gaila (she's the green Orion chick that was Uhura's roommate.) It's amazing. I spend like two and a half weeks hanging around st_xi_kink reading EVERYTHING


So yeah, I sort of slacked off... and I won't be posting any fic this month.

In my defense, It wasn't like I wasn't writing... I just wasn't doing what I was supposed to be doing. I was writing Anon!fic at st_xi_kink ^_^ and since it's Anon, I'm not linking it... also... ^_^;; Some of it I am frankly Embarrassed by.

Anyway. I'm somewhat back on task now. Hopefully, June will produce more work I can show.

^_^;;
