Haven't written any more on overdue [livejournal.com profile] femgenficathon story. Brain currently consumed by vid bunny idea that WON'T GO AWAY even though I don't know how to vid and I don't want to know how to vid.

Man, I should've made a bid in that Sweet Charity fandom action so that someone else would make it for me.

I know how it ends already. And who's in which section of the song. And which part of the song will have to be cut.
*bangs head against desk repeatedly*

Heh - I was just thinking about procrastinating further by emailing you and asking how you're doing. I JUST wrote the few hundred words. I've decided that even if they don't let me post at this point, I'll feel like less of a loser if I at least finish?

I meant to! I even wrote down my ideas for the THREE vids I have all sketched out in my head. And then I forgot all about it until 2 hours after the deadline. Which is okay, I guess, since I probably couldn't afford it anyway. But I pretty much fail fandom at the moment. :/

Heh. Yeah... hey, if they don't let us post there, I'll just post in my own LJ. But having started, I really WANT to get done. I just can't get my brain to shut up about vidding Six and start writing Three.

I'd tell you to buck up, but that's kind of how I feel right now, too. :(

I guess if you have to fail something, right? ;] But whatever! Our stories will be so totally worth waiting for! Strict adherence to deadlines is the hobgoblin of little minds!!

Hee! You want to vid!

So I taped the Life premiere but not the second ep... is it worth watching? I recorded it mainly because I heard you telling me to (yes, I hear voices, particularly bossy ones!).

I was reading an SVU fic, btw, and got annoyed because it was such a well-written fic only El and Liv got carjacked, driven to a warehouse, and then were left in the car for a short time while their kidnappers went to go be evil or something. So then why don't the cops freaking HOTWIRE the car? I got so bogged down by the logistics of the situation, I couldn't watch.

I hate it when that happens. And I had to rant to someone, and chose you! Aren't you lucky?

Life has been... uneven so far this season. So you should go to hulu.com and watch season one instead. *g* (How's that? Bossy enough?)

I'm sticking with it so far, but it needs to pick up the quality fast--otherwise it'll be 'that embarrassing show I watch because Damien Lewis is hot.'

And yes, I'm honored to be the recipient of your fic rant. *snicker*
wanna chat? I'm going to sign in to AIM in case you're hanging around.

Dude! Make the vid! Or ask for help. YOU KNOW I WILL HELP YOU. Or we can just chat about it, too. Vid muse is very demanding. I have ideas that have waited two years. They won't go away, btw. You can quiet them but they will persist.

Hee! Once upon a time I used to post drafts of my fics locked, I was so shy. But someone had an imaginary stick from far away which still somehow managed to poke me. It was annoying but I finally posted ficlets publicly. And I was very happy. The end.

*pokes*

I'm trying to bargain with the muse--finish the D'Anna story first, then we can examine the whole will we or won't we try vidding question. (Morning duty this week--which means twenty-five boring minutes sitting in the hallway with a notebook before classes start. Maybe I'll get more done then.)

OUCH. Heh. Pataka accused me of being bossy in the comments on this post... maybe she's right. Maybe. *g*

eta: And yes, if I dive into vidding, I'll definitely pester ask you for information. Thanks!

I like your bossiness! It gets things done! Like this vid fic. D'Anna is coming along. I'm happy to help you with that too. And like you and my writer friends always tell me, you must follow your muse, you can't force it.

I have learned to submit to the eager bunny who nibbles most persistently. Those bunnies grow to be some of my best work!

You know I'll help you with that vid bunny, right?

Yay, thanks! I'm trying to keep the vid bunny at bay until I finish the [livejournal.com profile] femgenficathon story. Maybe after that I'll give it a try. Unless you want to adopt it yourself?

free to a good home: one brand new vid bunny
