Life is just like the Movies

So yea, my car just DIED. As in the engine just kinda keeled over and quit. T-T The ironic part? I was coming into work with my dad so I could steal internet, and the engine shut off just as I got into the parking lot. Sure, I had to push it into a parking spot, but can you get any more perfect than to break down at a mechanic shop as you pull in?

(The really sad part of this though, is that I was planning on buying Seasons 2 & 3 of Supernatural today, but no car means no way to get three cities over to the only movie store that carries them. ;-; )

My second point is that the big computer had just gone through a big update and no one told me. So I got on to print some stuff, and just after I sent the big 173 page document to the printer, the computer happily informed me that it would be restarting in seven minutes. wtf. So yea, I was on the edge of my seat staring at the printer hoping it would finish in time. Can you guess when it spat out the final page? At 1 second left. OMG. Stuff like this only happens in the movies.

And holy shiznit, I now have CS2 on my laptop and I just finished installing my small tablet on there as well. (It's a Wacom Graphire, can you say oooold? ^^ They don't even make these anymore)

This means I will have better access to iconing materials and that things should get updated faster since I will be switching computers less now that I have a basic version on everything I want finally installed on my laptop. XDD I'm so happy. Now if only 7 was pretty...

Since like NO ONE has any Drop Dead Fred icons that I can find that I like, I'm about to make some of my own. After that, more yaoi icons since I have like 8 artbooks worth of yaoi (....) and then some Naruto ones if I can get some good bases. I'm also gonna see about getting some screencaps of Time Hollow and Devil Survior so I can do some of them.

As for my fanfictioning, since everything is finally happy and updated here, I'm off to finish Bondage Isn't Free so I can finally get a post up on Dreamwidth. -______-; After that, I'll be working on Duskborn, followed by CinderAllen after I figure out where my parents stashed my VHS player when I wasn't looking. Then Caged Bird, and finally, Blue Skies and my new stories. (of which, I just found some more plots I hid from myself. they have now joined the large plunnie farm in my head and are currently reproducing. anyone up for an adoption?)

Mwah-ha-ha! I am fully planning on using the image post feature to the fullest! Please note that all icons you see here are my own creation unless otherwise stated. If you like one well enough to steal it, please credit back to me and post a comment so I know where it went. Thanks.

Slashy Conversion and Icons

Mwah-ha-ha! I have succeded in converting Caits to the Star Trek slash fandom. ^^ Which means, I'll probably get roped into doing a few Star Treck oneshot-y things for Spock/Kirk. I'm anxious about trying any of them thou'.

*ahem* NEON GENESIS EVANGELION IS FREAKIKNG AWESOME!!

:) Cait said she had never seen it before, so I had to show her ep.24 so she could see the adorableness that is Kaworu/Shinji. Then, we watched Death and Rebirth and Cait got to see the confusingness that is the Orange Crush of souls. XD I still don't know the name of it, but it looks like Orange Crush!
Cait and I were almost crying during the 63 second static shot. "You know it's true love when it takes 1.03 minutes to kill someone." (from an icon I found, and so true ;-;) I have some new baby plunnies hopping around for some oneshots, but I'm leaving them alone for now until I finish everything I had promised for Christmas.

On that note, I've been working on Bondage Isn't Free today, and omg, it's so much fun. ^^ Evan Rosier is a joy to write. It's about half-way through and I think I can get it done tomorrow and posted on Dreamwidth. My current sticking point is the rape/kill scene I have to write...and I've never written smut before. Then I get to write voyueristic masturbation. ^^;; I may have to wait until Monday to upload it so I can get Evynn to beta it for me.

I've been attempting to get into iconing for the past three days. I made like 20 in one night and another 30 the next day. ^^ Cait likes them, so they can't be too bad... I still have some Casshern screencaps I haven't used yet; I'll be waiting until after I iconize the rest of them, then I'll be doing a batch post on LJ for everything. I also have some Vassalord, Okane ga Nai, and Advent Children icons I've made. (screencapping is a tiring process, omg. it took at least as much time to screencap the scenes as it would have to just watch the movie!)
On the illustration front, Snape is still being a bit of a whore, and Eorin is still being shamelessly molested by Harius. (X3 Does it count as sexual harassment when they're imaginary?)
