Angst-o-Rama

[nny]

My life at the moment? Yeah. You really don't want to know. Stuff is sucking left right and centre. I'm enjoying the drabbles, and that's pretty much it. It's too frickin' hot in this country, for a start. And I'm moving back to Cardiff in a few days, which is... kinda good, but I think I might be allergic to my room. I'll have to do some more cleaning.

I'm feeling invisible. Nobody seems to notice me in RL anymore. In fact, I *am* Richard Mayhew. I have fallen through the cracks. There's no one to pull me out.

So thanks everyone who comments at me and chats to me. If it weren't for you I'd be sobbing my little heart out. :(

Bollocks.

Hey Rich!

Some people think 'online life' isn't real life. I'm not one of them. I do have a very 'lively real life' but what I do and who I am on line is part of that real life. Sometimes a huger part, sometimes a smaller one. Sometimes a more 'fun' or easier one, sometimes a more difficult one. Well...
I've been enjoying your drabbles, too, BTW. Thanks! And I'm looking forward to reading your contributions to the SSFF this weekend - in case the heat (it's f***ing hot here, too!) permits me to read ;-)
*hugs*

Thankyou kindly.

what I do and who I am on line is part of that real life

Part of my problem is my parents and friends' inability to accept that. It is important to me, and they just call me a geek. :(

I know, I know... *sighs* My husband thinks I'm a geek. Most people would swear that it is impossible a) to communicate or even to have a conversation via the internet, b) that people are sane spend more than twenty minutes per day online and) to make friends online. They're wrong, as we know.
Don't let that get to you too much and don't believe what they say about the 'online vs real live issue'. Who "spends all her time online"? You. You're the expert on that matter, aren't you?

I notice you a lot. I dig funny brilliant people.

Seriously, people like you make it all worth it. Thank you.

Sorry to hear about the heat. I'm used to it here in Greece but it must be pretty tough for you people esp. since I guess most houses won't have A/C.

As for real life... it has its ups and downs, doesn't it? Just hang in there.

[villainny.livejournal.com]

I'm hanging. *g*

Just read a story in the paper about a depressive woman who slit her wrists and jumped out of a window in part because of the heat... I'm not *that* bad. It does get you down, though. I *long* for rain.

[mimine.livejournal.com]

O.o Poor lady. You wouldn't know whether she survived, I guess... Slit her wrists and jumped out of a widow? Must have been really desperate...

If we reacted that strongly to heat over here there wouldn't be any Greeks left.

Strange... heat doesn't usually get me down, just makes me very lazy and unable to focus.

And you know... slashers can't help being online a lot... often it's the only way to get in touch with other slashers. We need each other!

(in case you don't consider yourself a slasher, now would be a good time to tell me. I have had friends, online and in RL who read slash and in some cases write too but do not want to be called slashers)

I was a winter baby. I dislike the sun.

And hell yeah, I'm a slasher! You can't have as many pairings as I have in my to-do folder and *not* call yourself one. *g* I am proud to be a slasher. Also proud to be a drabble whore... and I have an award from Immora to prove it. =)

I just thought I'd come and spread some cheerful germs around (breathes on the monitor).

Lovely drabble, Nny. Thanks a lot. Can you do Snape/Neville?

Accident: Neville/Snape

[villainny.livejournal.com]

Snape glared at Neville, dripping with pale pink potion.

“I’m impressed, Mr Longbottom. In my detention you have managed, through incompetence, to create something that many of your peers study in order to manufacture in secret.”

Snape’s eyes were glittering strangely.

“This, Mr Longbottom, You unutterable fool, is not the potion I asked for.” Snape started to move toward him, his colour heightened. “This is, instead, a very powerful aphrodisiac.”

“I’m… I’m sorry,” faltered Neville. He eyed the approaching professor nervously. “What should I do? Do you want me to get Madam Pomfrey?”

“I suggest, Mr Longbottom, that you run.”

Hah, thank you. I'm really tired and that made me much happier. I have this kind of thing for Neville at the moment. I'm thinking of trying a story with Neville as a major character. Oh, yeah, after all my other stories are done, of course.

I'm glad you liked it. =)
