ihatefastcars is the BEST EVER.

She does not mock much when I stumble into a new fandom. She simply asks for links and looks and watches and reads.

Then?

She writes.

5000+ words of NCIS DiNozzo/McGee goodness.

She totally owns me.

The Big Picture by cesperanza. Dead Zone (TV). Johnny/Walt.

It's AWESOME.

Read this. Now.

Then die laughing.

Lavender by Kat Reitz and tzigane. Lex/Other xover.

It makes me roll about with happiness.

ruggerdavey wrote a cute as hell Greg/Nick story. Go, read it.

She is also marveously kind hearted and expressed a vague interest in my embryonic x-overs, so here is a snippety thing (it's actually the first scene) from

( dS/SN )

I was also going to post some IM/OaT stuff, but this post is long enough (a) and (b) it's way rougher than I imagined.

As is apparent by my complete lack of updating in the past few days. Seriously, though, not one damn thing happened last week that called for a journal entry.

Wow, that's really pitiful, huh?

Anyway, things are looking up. Kind of. I still don't have an actual job, but my temp thing has been extended through this week at least. I've got resumes in at several places, including the US District Court which would pay amazingly well when my experience is taken into consideration. So we'll see about that.

I think I'm going to go to a movie with my dad next weekend which is nice because I haven't seen him in a few weeks, but not nice because he was making noises about wanting to see Bruce Almighty so I'm going to have to redirect his attention, I think.

What else, what else... This past weekend was the birthday of the sister of the artist formerly known as Ru (everlastingwhy), so all of the sisters (minus Nora who lives in Vegas) converged on our apartment for the weekend and we went to the Dixie Chicks concert on Saturday night. I'm not a huge country fan - in fact, the Dixie Chicks are about the only country group I can stomach - but this is the third time I've seen them in concert and they really are great. Ru has never been a fan and was going because she loves her sister and also to show her support for them after The Incident a couple of months back. I'm happy to say, though, that the Dixie Chicks totally won her over. Not their music, though she did enjoy the fiddling quite a bit, no it was the highly entertaining and informative between set music that did it for her. Were we reading too much into it? I don't think so:

(I can't remember all the songs or the exact order, but I remember enough to get my point across)
Peace, Love & Understanding - Elvis Costello
Everybody Wants to Rule the World - Tears for Fears
Our Lips are Sealed - The Go-Go's
Band on the Run - Wings
End of the World (As We Know It) - REM
Born in the USA - Bruce Springsteen

It was a good thing.

carolinecrane has written another story in her Greg/Nick CSI series Sugar Rush. Strip Sega. Heh. I really wish more people would see the light of Greg/Nick instead of all the freakers who write Gil/anyone. Ew. Because it's sad that 90% of the fic around the pairing is that horrible, bad, OOC POS rapefic by CrazyFundamentalistGirl. As I like to call her.

Caroline has also started the official BWoC fanlisting. Go here for more details. I'll be registering as soon as I get home.

You know what I've been enjoying way more than I probably should? Scribe's Commercial slash series. It started with Sprint Guy/Verizon Guy slash and went from there. Sick and wrong? Probably but, for Scribe, the stories are well-written and they entertained me. Hmph. I was going to link to her website, but the link is down for the Commercial slash.

God, I'm such a slashwhore. I'll read any damn thing. Commercial slash seems tame. I mean, I've read tinnean's Classic Horror Movie slash. I've pillaged (in some cases multiple pairings) over a dozen and a half fandoms.

I read Harry/Draco, people.

It might be a cry for help...

Naw.
