Well, I guess I know what I'm using my DW account for. Time to back stuff up. speaking of Dreamwidth, I have five invite codes if anyone needs one. I'm also thinking about having Collarcorner over on DW, also as back up should things go haywire again.
Interesting news; a few days ago I learned from my dad that my aunt was in charge of hiring the background cast for Cowboys and Aliens. I thought that pretty dang nifty, especially since it's the one movie we've been waiting all summer to see.
I've been feeling rather cruddy the past couple of days and can't quite figure out why. I want to say it's allergies since that's what it feels like - the worst dang allergies I'd ever had. Except A) it's sporadic, where as the last time I had it this bad it was constant and B) last time there was a source - having a bird in my room. Said bird has long since passed away, and I cleaned my room pretty thoroughly not that long ago. I thought that, maybe, it was something I kept eating, then thought that maybe it was the tap water, then thought maybe it had something to do with how hot it's been. But I've stopped eating the thing I thought might be causing the problem, started drinking bottled water by the ton and... I'm still not sure since, as I said, it comes and goes. At this point, I really don't know anymore. Tomorrow I plan on giving my room an even more thorough clean to see if that helps.
On the writing front, I finally started my Collarcorner fic exchange story after three plots and three outline rewrites. Funny thing is that it wasn't until I started writing that plot number three - the winner - finally popped into my mind practically fully formed. I seem to have this habit of starting with long, complicated, confusing ideas that absolutely refuse to settle into something simple and doable, only for the plot to suddenly, out of nowhere, settle into something simple and doable. It's like the idea was there all the time but the big, complicated idea refused to get out of its way and let me see it. And it's frustrating, because why wasn't I able to come up with this sooner since it's so dang simple! It's basically become the story of how I come up with all my stories.
