1. ( Why my fic is not on the AO3 )
2. I am now on Pinterest! If that is something other people are interested in. I get the sense that it is decidedly not fannish, which is fine, as I wanted somewhere to catalogue knitting patterns and recipes that aren't on Ravelry or Tasty Kitchen, and also pretty things that I stumble across on the Internet and want to keep track of.
3. I need to come up with some kind of schedule for myself now that I'm not in school. Because there are things I need to do this summer! Like study Latin, study for the GRE, read my honors thesis books, read Shakespeare (well, I don't have to do that one, but I want to). Only right now I'm not doing anything, just bumming around on the Internet, reading books, and baking things. (Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I need to, you know, do things. Also...go outside.)
4. My driveway is still flooded. (Our irrigation ditch overflowed. We got off easy, though -- there's really bad flood damage in other parts of the county. We're just not prepared to deal with flooding here! Which is funny considering it happens every year, though usually not this bad.)
5. I may or may not be working on something. If I was, I wouldn't talk about it, since I'm also on one of those "IF I TALK ABOUT IT IT WON'T GET DONE" streaks.
6. I am however also back on a sea shantey streak, so let that tell you what it may. (The Last Saskatchewan Pirate is so much fun, though -- that link's to a PotC vid, which doesn't quite work as half the fun of the song is that it's so very Canadian, but on the other hand, aww, PotC! The other half is that the song itself is SO MUCH FUN.)
7. For the favorite line from a song meme (which is actually from writer's block on LJ, but hey, whatever)! I could basically quote half of Sugarland's lyrics, because they really capture the flavor of small town life, but this one especially from Happy Ending:
the first and last breath don't matter
it's all the ones that are in-between
Although really, that entire verse. That entire song!
