I am at WORK today, people. SICK. And FEVERISH. And so that means that I get to want things. Things such as:

* A J2 version of Indecent Proposal where its like, Jensen and Danneel in Vegas and Jared is this millionaire tycoon and he wants to pay them a million dollars to have sex with Jensen. YES PLEASE. I actually started whining about this YEARS ago, and lo, I dont think it's been done yet. SO SAD.

* A J2 version of The Time Travellers Wife where Jensen is that constant and Jared is the jumper and he keeps having to leave Jensen and then show up again. And it doesnt have to be exact but there have to be some KEY scenes like Jared showing up in the meadow with no clothes on and them meeting for the first time in the library and the first time but not REALLY first time SEX scene, etc etc. I'd actually thought of writing this myself but a) too much plotting and b) too much writing. It started to make my brain hurt.

* A J2 version of The Wedding Singer where Jensen is about to get married and Jared is the jaded terrible wedding band singer and they fall madly in LURVE. (I feel like this one might exist. Yes? No?)

*Finally, in keeping with the Drew Barrymore theme (seriously, ALL of her movies would be AWESOME J2 aus) 50 First Dates is one of my favorite movies EVER. Tell me that wouldnt be an AWESOME J2 fic as well. BWEEE!


SIGH. Ok. So much for daydreaming.

In other news, I was tossing and turning a lot last night in bed, thinking about SPN and the timeline of six months from now in Detroit and have thoughts.

( spoilers for pretty much everything thats happened so far. none for anything in the future, please! )

Once upon a time, there was a girl who worked a lot of hours at her job and didnt get to go out to dinner with just her husband and without their two year old or any other various assorted relatives very often. Like, EVER. AT ALL.

So one weekend, they went out and secured a babysitter and made reservations at a swanky restaurant the girl had always wanted to go to and were all set and ready to go out for the night and--

THE GIRL WOKE UP SICK. LIKE, VERY SICK. AND THEY HAD TO CANCEL THEIR PLANS. AND IT SUCKED MIGHTILY. AND NOW I - I MEAN, SHE - IS SITTING ON HER COUCH, UNSHOWERED AND CRANKY AND EATING TACO BELL AND BEING PISSED OFF.

THE END.


sigh.

So yeah. This is my night. AWESOME. I might try and work on my HI, HELLO, VERY FUCKING DEPRESSING Jo and Ellen fic I started the other day or, I dont know, troll around for long, schmoopy J2 or wincest fics. DECISIONS DECISIONS.

Actually, there's a question. I've been on a J2 reading kick for a WHILE now, but havent read any Sam/Dean fics recently. Does anyone have any recs or a recs page or something you can shoot me? My perfect fic would be long, with some angst and or h/c with a nice long schmoopy ending of awesomness. And porn.

SIGH. I'm going to go mix Nyquil and red wine now.

Flist! So far today I've made three batches of cookies, drank a pot of coffee, argued with a two year old that sadly, cheese doodles are NOT brekfast, and programmed NCIS: LA into my tivo.

WHAT. I FEEL LIKE THAT IS VERY PRODUCTIVE WHAT.

Anyway, I have ( questions about Jo with spoilers for 5x10, of course. )

ok. Thank you for the info, flist!

In other news, I signed up yesterday for undermistletoe for the Harlequin prompt of J2 PREGNESIA which is, you know, KIND OF EXACTLY WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE. AMNESIA BABYFIC. OH YEAH. I'M GOING THERE. Anyway, with the addition of that it makes my to do list over hiatus look something like this:


*12/14 - undermistletoe J2 Pregnesia fic

*sometime in 1/10 - both fics for j2_everafter: J2 Invincible fic and J2 Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen

*whatever random Jo monstrosity I'm writing right now

*the J2 futurefic I started where they've been broken up and havent seen each other in years and then see each other again and it's all ANGSTY and filled with LONGING and the most important supporting character is CHAD.

*J2 'only one room left at the inn' cliche fic

*the Jensen/Sandy fic no one in the world cares about anymore but me

*and, hmm, I think that might be it? Am I forgetting something? I dont think so. WE SHALL SEE.


So yeah! Have a great turkey day everyone who celebrates! And have a great Thursday to everyone who doesn't! First Thursday of hiatus - WHATEVER SHALL WE DOOOOOOOOOOOO.

ok. so here it is.

drlense is here and hello, this is NOT EVEN MY FAULT, but omg, NCIS:GAY is SO GAY. OH MY GOD. I CANNOT EVEN.

I just. I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT TO SAY. there is EYE FUCKING. and LL COOL J and just - WOW. it's like, realy really REALLY GAY SMARM FIC with NO PLOT except for the plot which is, you know, kind of BAD! and doesnt make SENSE! but NO ONE CARES because HI HELLO.

VERY FUCKING GAY. AND HOT. DID I SAY HOT??

hi. I'm sorry. I have a bottle of wine in me and SARAH and I CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR MY ACTIONS.

I will be back later. We have to go watch some more.

\o/

I'm sitting here scrolling down my flist and Ava wanders over as I get to a picture of Jared from Chicago Con holding a microphone.

Ava: That's a man?
Me: Yes
Ava: He's in a store?
Me: No, he's on a stage.
Ava: He has a microphone?
Me: Yes, he does.
Ava: *staring* He's pretty.
Me: *cracking the fuck up* Yes, sweetie. He's very pretty.

\o/

Of course, this immediately followed me saying the phrase "Ava, don't draw on your face with the crayons, baby." So, you know, maybe we'll cut her a little slack.

In some awesome kid news, we are POTTY TRAINING! Whoo! She's been asking for it for a few weeks now and we brought it out today. We'll see how this goes.

In even AWESOMER news, tomorrow night I get a drlense! If NCIS is my new fandom by Thursday, I CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE. THIS IS ALL I AM SAYING.

meme stolen from lots of folks:

1. Write down the names of 10 characters.
2. Write a fic of fifteen words or less for every prompt, using the characters determined by the numbers. Do NOT read the prompts before you do step 1.


1. Dean Winchester (SPN)
2. Jensen Ackles
3. Jared Padalecki
4. Sam Winchester (SPN)
5. Ray Kowalski (due South)
6. Benton Fraser (due South)
7. Ella Simms (Melrose Place 2.0)
8. David Breck (Melrose Place 2.0)
9. Rachel Berry (Glee)
10. Sue Sylvester (Glee)


( AH HA HA! this was FUN! )


So here's a question: are there any J2 AU's about either (or both) of them being physical therapists? Because I feel like reading about Jareds HANDS like, all over Jensen's LEGS. And stuff. If someone could help me out that'd be FABULOUS. I'm stuck at work until like, 9pm. I NEED A DISTRACTION, PLEASE.

I've had this running around my head all day and wasn't going to post, but I have an extra twenty minutes now before I go to work for the next twelve hours and I'm afraid if I don't get it out I might brain splooge all over some poor people trying to enjoy their dinner on a Friday night. I don't think that's very managerial. So here goes.


( some thoughts about fandom and SPN's female characters. spoilers for 5x10. )


ha ha! Awesome. If you want to comment please don't think I'm ignoring you. I'll be home at 3am and will look at lj again tomorrow.

Hey all! Here's some non-au J2 fic! I kind of want to think this is the closest to the kind of J2 I used to write. I'm trying to get back into my groove, if you know what I mean *g*

Thanks to elizah_jane for the super fast beta. You're the best, my darling! MWAH ♥

( hiding in plain sight )

HI GUYS! I'm home!

I mean, not that that's weird for any of you, because, uhm, I never mentioned I was going away? But I did! On a GrownUp Weekend in NOLA with the Mr. and two friends of ours for much needed drinking and eating and drinking. There was also supposed to be tattooing, but we couldnt fit it into the tight schedule of drinking eating and drinking so it's going to have to wait.

Anyway, HI! Apparently there was a con this weekend! I know this because I've now been online for FOUR HOURS and done NOTHING but watch vids and look at pictures and pick up the I HEART JENSEN afghan I started knitting six years ago that I lost interest in because, HI. I KIND OF STILL LOVE JENSEN. LIKE, A LOT.

Which, you know. Not really news. But that's fine! Though I'm wondering: did some chick seriously pay $3500 for Sam's watch? Because while I think thats cool for charity and such, WOW. That's thirty five HUNDRED dollars. THREE THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS.

That's a lot of money is all I'm saying.

Uhm, what else. *thinks* I wish I had more but I kind of don't! My brain sort of sizzled and started to fail after the Jensen wanting kids comment and hasn't fully returned from J2 Kidfic land.

WHOOPS.

So here's an embarrassing admission, internets:

After I had Ava, I wasn't working. I was home until she was nearly nine months old, while Mr. E worked his day job, and his night job, and most of my friends live in the city/Boston/places far away from my house. So. I'd be up from whatever - 6am - and with an infant all day long, and got myself to that slightly crazy stay at home mommy phase where you think NO ONE in the world can watch your kid except for you and you don't leave the house, blah blah.

ANYWAY. This is not the point.

The POINT is, that while this was happening, I watched a lot of tv. A LOT of tv. A lot of VERY BAD tv. And we're not talking Smallville bad. We're talking Everybody Loves Raymond/The King of Queens/TBS reruns kind of bad.

And in the midst of these REALLY BAD RERUNS I watched for like, nine months, I became ADDICTED to my hour a day of Yes, Dear which is a really, really, REALLY cheesy sitcom starring Kurt's dad.

I don't really know what the point of this post is, except to tell you I KINDA LOVE KURT'S DAD. And Kurt. And Glee last night. Like, a LOT.

♥

In other news, you know what else I love, internets? MELROSE PLACE. No, I'm not even kidding. Over the weekend I told serialkarma that I kind of went into MP planning on loving it no matter what it was like, good or bad. And the cheese factor is there, of course. It IS Melrose Place. But my god, I didnt expect to actually *like* it. Like, it's up there as one of my favorite shows in a very long time.

WHATEVER. SHUT UP ALL OF YOU.

Finally, last night before the tv marathon started I wrote 1400 words of non-au J2 cliche fic. For no reason except for that it's AWESOME. I also snagged my second first choice prompt (does that make sense?) for j2_everafter, which means I'm writing Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, AND Invincible by January. I kind of call that a WIN.

Things that are making me happy:

- GLEE is back tomorrow. GLEEEEEEEEEEEE. And while I do have my issues with it, I have missed it the past two weeks and have HIGH HOPES tomorrow night will be AWESOME.

- Speaking of Glee, so I got the soundtrack, and am completely in love with the whole thing, but omg, Defying Gravity? In addition to being one of my favorite songs like, ever, in the world, makes me WEEP it's so freaking gorgeous. Lea Michele's voice is RIDICULOUS. God.

- I've been making an effort lately to try and keep in touch with my friends more. This might not sound like much, but I don't think I really realized how much I'd been slacking on this, and how much I MISSED it. I love you guys, I love my friends. I'm so much happier now that I've sucked a bunch of you back into my life. ♥

- Jensen and Danneel are engaged, and while I'm happy for them in real life, I've realized that it doesn't even matter to me. J2 has been and will always be it for me. Suck it, real life!

- ( There is nothing about this picture that Cam posted that doesn't make me happy. )

*koff*

Uhm, anyway, HI! Happy Tuesday!

This morning Ava wanted a muffin for breakfast. I'd made muffins the other day and she remembered and wanted one. Fine, I say! Awesome!

I give her the muffin, and she then proceeds to LOOK at me, say "Watch, Mommy! I COOOOOK-IEEEE MON-STERRRRRR AHHHH NOM NOM NOM" and freaking SHOVES the ENTIRE muffin in her mouth, like, handfuls at a time.

And muffin is SPEWING EVERYWHERE and she's CRACKING UP and I'm like, NO GOD NO AHH and she's just like, over and over "I COOKIE MONSTER NOM NOM NOM" and making a huge flipping mess.

So, you know, THANKS COOKIE MONSTER.

Anyway, I cleaned it up and now shes eating a tangerine.

(And here's a story about tangerines. A few days ago I gave her one and started singing Tangerine by Led Zepplin when I gave it to her, so for the next like, three days, EVERYTHING I gave her to eat she asked: "what's the chicken song mommy? whats the bologna song mommy? whats the cereal song mommy?" because, you know, the TANGERINE had a song so now everything must. And who, I ask you, is the shithead singing about turkey bugers in the kitchen every night now? THIS SHITHEAD.)

So. Hi internets! Here is my conundrum. Apparently all I want to write these days is sappy, cheesy, cliche fic j2 aus. Like, I dont even have an EXCUSE for the shit I want to write.

I have no idea what happened! It's like I used to write, stopped writing, and now want to write CHEESY SCHMOOPY CAVITY INDUCING GARBAGE. With porn. I have no idea what to do with this, BUT THERE IT IS.

*hands*

So, uhm, anyway! I currently have on my list my j2_everafter fic, a schmooptastic j2 time travel au I want to try, and the futurefic I'm working on now (which isnt an au but I think it sucks pretty hard so I'm waiting to see what happens to it. I might sit on it a while.)

BUT. THE POINT IS. DO YOU HAVE ANY J2 CLICHEFIC YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE WORLD? BECAUSE IF YOU DO, YOU SHOULD TELL ME WHAT IT IS. My current fixation is the "pretending to be gay/married/dating" plotline, BUT I AM OPEN TO HEAR ABOUT MORE.

Come talk to me internets! I'm stuck in the house with a sniffly baby covered in muffin crumbs today!

So I was ALL READY to do Invincible for j2_everafter - had it set at my first choice prompt and EVERYTHING - and then, as I'm sitting there, waiting for the confirmation, THIS catches my eye:

Being the most popular girl in school was easy for Lola Steppe until her mother divorced and moved the family. At the new school, Lola found the role of most popular female was already taken, which meant she had to settle for the role of least popular…or did she? In a full-on battle for the title of most popular, Lola decides to take on Carla Sartini and win the most important thing in the world…or maybe not?


AH HA HA HA HA!! WHO BETTER TO BE TEENAGE DRAMA QUEENS THAN JARED AND JENSEN, I ASK YOU? NO ONE. THAT IS THE ANSWER.

\o/

I am very excited. The end.

So I'm at work, getting my little blurb set up for claiming a prompt later today over at j2_everafter, and I look at my top three and they look something like this:

Invincible (true story underdog football movie)
Remember the Titans (true story underdog football movie)
The Rookie (true story underdog, uhm, baseball movie)


WHY HELLO, SPORTS KINK, HOW HAVE YOU BEEN? NICE TO SEE YOU. IT'S BEEN A WHILE.

I just watched 5x08 and have some happy and stupidly proud thoughts about SPN up through this point. I don't really meta, ever. This might be as close as I'll ever get.


( spoliery for the whole show in general )

God, I'm such a goober.

*is sappy*

( one other quick question about John and the series in general )


Ok. Done now.

Congratulations, Yankees. Way to go.

NOW GIVE ME MY GODDAMN GLEE BACK.

FIC!

A coda to last weeks episode The Curious Case of Dean Winchester. I haven't written Sam and Dean in like, over two years. I'm a total noob these days. WEIRD. We'll see how this whole writing thing goes.

Since I'm apparently NOT ALLOWED to turn off The Backyardigans to check on the Tivo (Jesus Christ), can someone tell me where last weeks episode was supposed to have taken place? I can't remember.

Thank youuuuuuuuuuu!

I am TOTALLY drunk on red wine right now, and just convinced the Mr. to rent Friday the 13th on tv to watch tonight. I told him it was for halloween, but it's ACTUALLY for Jared.

AH HA HA HA.


*wins*

Happy Halloweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen!

I have to admit, I've never been a total crazy fan of Halloween, but Ava's just old enough this year to really LOVE her costume (you know, the butterfly witch princess costume we're rigging up for her. SIGH) and she has a Hello Kitty trick or treat basket she loves and I'm kind of excited about all the CANDY I'm going to steal from her after shes sleeping ("this is too chewy! she's too small for this! this has PEANUTS! WHEE FOR MEEEE!) so, you know, YAY HALLOWEEN!!

In other news, when I got home from work last night I watched this weeks episode of SPN, and went to bed having DEEP and HAPPY thoughts about SPN this season, which got me thinking about last season.

( some SPN rambling, spoilers through this weeks episode, talk about S4 as a whole, etc etc... )



Ha! Ok. That was slightly rambly. SORRY. I have boys on the brain. WHOOPS!
