Further adventures in FAIL.

My youngest brother sent me a family group shot and I emailed him back saying something like "It's pleasant to know everyone rang in the new year by getting stoned." Because...the facial expressions were just funny.

And then I realized everyone in the photo was wearing black and the last time they were all together was last month for my grandmother's funeral.

So I hastily emailed my brother again to basically tell him these aren't the droids he's looking for and he should never, ever trust what I say when it's almost four in the morning and oh my God I am a horrible, horrible person.

Something that squicks me:

The term "tender hole." Oh. My. God. I cannot begin to describe the face I pulled when I came across that one. Maybe, maybe it works if you're poking a spade through the topsoil in order to plant tulip bulbs or something. Not so much with the gay lovin', however.

...hi, it's past three and I can't sleep, so I've opted not to.

Need to go to four or five events this week, none of which are tomorrow, call a few hotels to confirm menus and headcounts for a few other events, finish an article that's due Wednesday, get something for my father's birthday (also Wednesday) and possibly cram in some mealtime to hang out with him, throw together some banners and interview questions, kindly bug some more CEOs for money, send emails to a few people whose business cards I got two weeks ago, update the website, and who knows what else.

Fuck! Ass! If all else fails, I shall be the bartender with Tourette's from Boondock Saints when I grow up.

*makes like a tree and gets the fuck out of here*

It is two in the morning and am I sleeping or studying?

NO.

I AM DRAWING HOUSE AND WILSON AS PIRATES. BECAUSE YESTERDAY WAS INTERNATIONAL TALK LIKE A PIRATE DAY AND THIS IS OF COURSE MUCH MORE VITAL TO MY SURVIVAL.

...why do I fail at, oh, everything?

Guys, I fail. I owe a couple people birthday fics, still haven't written my Foreman fics, still owe a couple people drabbles from a few weeks ago, still owe some people fics from forever ago, and I keep getting involved with new things.

However, the speedsex for get_house_laid is done and over 15,000 words. And there's a ton more after that, regarding what happens once the speed wears off, but it's not finished and the first part is totally intelligible without it anyway (aside from the usual things, like POV shifts...). nakeno and I can only shut up for so long, you see. Though the thing does need a better title than "speedsex."

So, three out of four GHL fics are done, anyway. One more to go, and I have a draft and eleven days. I should also be studying for the GREs and stuff, too, shouldn't I?
