Title: Poles
Author: Jude
Fandom: Tamora Pierce (author) Protector of the Small quartet
Summary (by me): Evin informs Dom of what he thinks jousting represents. "men pointing their poles at each other in a way that won't make their wives disown them...”
Rating: PG-13? (for innuendo?)
Warnings: bad formatting, innuendo, lack of subtlety, slashy undertones

I don't know how I didn't think of that before, at least to that extent, and it's ME for gods' sake. my mind is permanently in the gutter; taken up residence, have a welcome mat, I even get mail. I really just...don't know how I could have missed it. I suppose if I felt like defending myself I could state the continuing inability to get over the absurdity of men riding at each other on horses to smash sticks into each other, but STILL! *incredulous look*
on another note, you know you have been watching too much anime when you look for the subtitles when talking to people. *headdesk*
so then, there's some of the interesting fandom related things that have been happening to me, well, that I remember to write down anyway.

so I have to write a summary for a project I did, and being lazy and just wanting to get it done to read more fanfic, I just reworked the beginning part of the proposal I wrote for it i.e. changed tenses and a few other words here and there. when I finished I thought "well that was easy" *cue hitting imaginary EASY button*. and then thought "this is extreme plagiarism, except...it's to myself..."
I have also come to the EXTREMELY late conclusion that I spam my own lj. oh the contradictions. *sigh* I just do this to myself, yes I do*

All in all I pretty happy with how it turned out. It's not complicated and it's not very good quality but it amuses me.

I've never been good with words, especially at times like this. All I can say is you'll be sorely missed. And thanks, for everything. This song's for you.

then we lost power,
but we still had school.
it's obviously the first two of the seven plagues and the general reaction was "umm...hey cool, we can sail little boats and have boat races!"
*face desk* I think the worst part is that this is relatively normal. I don't even want to contemplate the implications after that.
*sulk* and I was hoping we wouldn't have school tomorrow.

I just got back from my grandparents about five minutes ago and man am I tired. After a day of cooking and baking I'm more sore than after hours spent playing basketball. Never underestimate the strength of a little old lady. My grandma doesn't look like much but she can whip those mixes long after my arms feel like they're about to fall off. *dies of exhastion*

mother - "these brownies are chewy"
me - "I know, they're good"
mother - "(insert my younger sister's name) thinks I made them so I have to get rid of this box"
*cue hysterical laughter*
anyway, it was hilarious at the time.
you know what. I think from now on I'm going to start writing down quotes from the real-world, because they amuse me. and it's not like anyone reads this anyway (besides you Shatter dear) so it doesn't really matter, it's just like talking to myself (which we're just going to pretend doesn't matter).

I live with a bunch of morons! One little thing, I just asked them to do one little thing. But no! Who the hell goes to the store and buys one thing of ramen!? One, as in singular! For gods’ sake they’re 16 cents. And how the hell is it that they came home with bags of groceries and there still isn’t anything for me to eat for dinner!?!?!?

As usual I have too much to do in too small an amount of time. I have an English exam on Friday, which would be fine except I keep mixing the poems up with each other in the middle. I also have a large amount of math related work to do and I have a term paper due and my prof. just blew my thesis to hell. I also have a number of rather large decisions to make which have to be made NOW and it's rather difficult to concentrate as a result of the stress of the time constraint, schoolwork, and family stuff.
And to top it all off I just gave two disastrous presentations.
*sigh* I don't know what I'm going to do.

Some highlights: missed my bus for work so was a half an hour late, just got to work and set up in the lab then the fire alarm went off - turned out it was a malfunction but was forced to stay outside for 45 min., later on in the lab we were disposing of some of the solid waste when we saw a small plume of black smoke and sparks - we slammed the fume hood down and thought well shit there really is a fire this time - it turned out fine we just melted the funnel a bit but we decided to call it a day.
And that's besides the rest of the crap that had happened earlier that day.
