let's all go to the mall

Jul. 23rd, 2008 at 9:40 AM

I'm on vacation all this week. It's a very stupid vacation, the kind where I don't really leave the house and lay in bed and watch TV and read fanfiction and eat and stuff. I even remembered to change my voicemail at work so I won't go back and have fifty million voicemails asking me for immediate help! woo!

I'm writing a companion to if you know my name, tell it to me. IDEK.

I'm reading High School Musical fic like there's no tomorrow. I have no excuses. Chad and Ryan are pretty much awesome, okay? Okay.

Also, I'm addicted to The Middleman. Does anyone else watch that? J and I tape it every week. It's hilarious and sort of completely dumb and awesome.

I got nothing else. Wow, I'm so so boring.

Dude, that's the best sort of vacation, imo. I mean, unless it's compared to a lots-of-concerts-vacation. Still! Enjoy and relax!

HSM fic! At one point, I really wanted to read Chad/Ryan or Troy/Chad but couldn't find anything. :(

Hope you enjoy your vacation!

I have to admit, I took six months of uni and I... pretty much did everything you did. XD Except I did it for six whole months. *sheepish*

Now that's a *vacation*!

Chad & Ryan (mostly Ryan) are indeed awesome.

It's hilarious and sort of completely dumb and awesome.

EXACTLY! My dad and I watch it while my mom just shakes her head. Someone on LJ pointed out that the Middleman is very Fraser-like which is SO TRUE. LOOOOOOOVE IT!

I'm having that kind of vacation too, only it's gonna last until August 5.

It thrills me to no end that you're reading Chad/Ryan (HAVE YOU HEARD THE SONG FROM HSM3 YET?) and oh my god have you read those breakdowns of Chad and Ryan's personalities and why they are ~perfect for each other? It's brilliant.

Chad/Ryan is a particular love of mine, so precious. I started in Troy/Ryan, but there's too much bad!fic there... I find that stories about the other two tend to be a little more upstanding, less random deaths and beatings.

you evil evil EVIL person.
i'm usually good at not getting sucked in to whatever fandom, because jesus fack there are a lot. my only exception seems to be with you. more specifically, what you read/like/fav on del.icio.us. and i don't mind, because you're an awesome writer and an hilarious and awesome person who keeps a journal on the 'net. usually, at least. but HSM???? dude, no. i was so sooooo strong when i saw some fic that started to flock around; just ignored them. but you go on this rampage or something and start reading all these ~~awesome, amazing, hilarious~~ fics and now i'm facked. because you pulled me in. and of course, you read all the good ones ~~hee! chad/ryan!!!~~ and so yes. i am mad. like a mad sheep. MAD.
why? :((

if you have not yet read Rehearsals, by

fools_game? RUN. DO NOT WALK, DO NOT PASS GO, DO NOT COLLECT $200. it gets inside Chad's head unbelievably well, and the author does an incredible job of making Chad/Ryan seem plausible.

Unicorn sequel! I admit, there was a happy dance, not gonna lie, a total happy dance.

I started writing a story in which Brendon was all street-urchin with Ryan and Gerard FOUND them and he was all Saving The World so he was all 'hey, pretty teenaged boys, come home with me' and Brendon had this knife and was all 'I'll cut you!' and then said something about Spencer and promising Spencer that he wouldn't let Ryan do that anymore and Gerard was all "...." and then it occured to me that in this universe, Spencer was most likely dead, and so I stopped writing it. Mostly I just wanted to write Brendon saying "I'll cut you" and waving a knife around.

Also, randomly, I've recently booked myself that very same sort of vacation, because I've never done that before, I've always gone somewhere, and it kinda sucks. It's stressful!

I know what I want to have happen, but I haven't decided who's POV I'm going to do it from yet, and, like, all the specifics. but it should be written soon!

OMG I would DIE LITERALLY DIE if you killed Spencer off! However, I too have a burning need for Brendon to say "I'll cut you" seriously.

Traveling is so stressful - figuring out what to do with the animals, packing, AIRPORTS (ugh) - staying home is much nicer, even if I have to put up with J and the zoo bugging me!

“You don’t smile. Your mouth does this pathetic little upwards tilt and, honey, I know you like me, but nothing I’ve ever said has put that light in your eyes, and whatever was in that message, well.” She shrugged, straightened, and Spencer froze a little in place because she looked this close to ruffling his hair. But she just tapped the counter and said, “Don’t panic now, okay?” like she knew him, like she knew his brain was flashing: you’re happy? Something must be horribly wrong, or something’s going to go horribly wrong at any second, so you better back the fuck up before you get hurt.
