ysobel: Two emperor penuins, nuzzling; text: penguin love (penguin love)
Last night's fun was probably exacerbated by low blood sugar -- I realized, as we were about to eat dinner, that the only thing I'd had since breakfast was a couple of donuts. Oops? (That wasn't the entire cause, but I'm sure it doesn't help.

#

I have installed a penguin theme for my Firefox. It is adorable and makes me happy. Not that I like penguins or anything.

#

I have decided to be semi sensible and start my not-a-school after Labor Day weekend, rather than on September 1, if only because I need to do some serious cleaning in order to get a workable study space. Which can also serve as a craft space, when I want to, say, make some more stitch markers because I am a dork and it is kind of fun even if they aren't perfect. (I'd show you pics but forgot to take them before sending them off as part of a swap package.)

#

Speaking of which, I want my swap package. *whimper*

#

I still have written nothing for kink_bingo. I think the problem is that I expect myself to be able to write good (and in-character) porn. I am going to spend the next couple of days letting myself write pathetic mediocre porn, so that I can get something in for this round.

Dragon time! Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today! Adopt one today!

Also, here, have a turtle:

sea turtle cake

This is a CAKE, you guys! zomg.

#

I love y'all ♥ *hugs*

My brain is weird.

(No, this is not news.)

I was going to let myself write crappy stuff for kink_bingo (since crappy is better than nothing, and anyway my judgment of crappiness is seriously suspect when it comes to my own work). And I tried. I wrote a bit of one prompt, a few hundred words, and it dried up. Wrote a bit of another, same thing. And k_b fics have to be at least 500, which right now feels like a marathon.

And then I saw the sleepy/unconscious square on my card, and my mind went to Inception, and I managed about six hundred words of ... something that is ... I don't know. I like the concept, I hate the execution. But anyway.

My brain then decides that, since I can't write fic, I should write -- wait for it -- a fucking-pun-mostly-intended SESTINA.

A slashy, kinky sestina.

I DO NOT DO POETRY. Except, apparently, when I do.

...And then I managed almost 1500 words of prose.

*eyes cross*

So, I've got one more day to do two prompts (oral fixation and whipping/flogging), and I will have officially gotten something in for the round of k_b. (And even if I don't, I achieved my goal of doing better than last year...)
