A Rec + Fest Guessing Game
I rec'd this fic last year and I will again because it's my favorite holiday fic bar none. If you haven't read ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) jadzialove's Humbug I must insist that you do sometime between now and the New Year. It's an absolutely perfect take on A Christmas Carol. I'll refund the purchase price if you don't enjoy it. :P
As everyone's mentioned the fests are starting. I have three anon fics out there in the universe-snarry_holidays, daily_deviant's Kinky Kristmas, mini_fest over on LJ. I will write a drabble for anyone that guesses any of the three fics which are mine (and I think at least two are so obvious anyone that regularly reads my fic could figure them out). I will put up a true screened guessing post later on but keep this in mind if you are interested in a drabble (likely written in late January).
ETA: Oooh!, I meant to mention that shadowess completed the table of WTP warnings. You can find them here. Over 23K worth of Snarry in all!

AO3 FTW
Tonight I started posting my fics on A03, and I just have to say: SHINY!!!! I'm totally geeking all over the little icons. And the page layout is so sleek and readable! Love it! *pets lots* Tonight I got up all my Alles Was Zählt stories -- and if you guessed that "angst" would be my most popular tag, you would be right!
Only thing that's not so shiny is that although I got my account a week ago, I was waiting to see if they might sort out the umlaut (or lack thereof) problem before I posted. Didn't expect someone to dive in there first and enter things like "Deniz Ozturk" and "Alles Was Zahlt" *winces in pain* I went ahead and entered everything spelled correctly, and I'm hoping the tag wranglers will realise that Ozturk=Oeztuerk and connect them. (Not that it's a big fandom or zillions of people will be confused or anything. Correct spelling is just one of my pet peeves inherited from my grandfather, who always insisted he was "Ó Briain, not O'Brian, for feck's sake!")
Anyway! Tomorrow I'm moving on to Merlin, then Harry Potter -- tonight I entered everything manually, but I think I just might play around with the spiffy importing feature. I have fewer stories in those fandoms, but they're longer/in multiple posts.
Beta means we're supposed to try to break things, right? *g*
Bedtime now. And I've still got the same grin I've been wearing for hours!

Completely speechless...
...so I'll borrow someone else's words: "It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single girl in possession of a large bandwidth must be in want of German pseudo-porn starring a pair of gay ice skaters. And if Internet legend holds, every time a new subscription is added to Eskimo Kiss Project, somewhere in the world a fangirl gets her wings."
This is the most fabulous fandom in the entire world! *loves all of you to bits*
P.S. In other news of sparkly awesomeness, I am figuring out a new vidding program and also just made my first DVD with menus. Technology, ye shall be conquered yet!

Adventdrabbles + fests opening tomorrow!
adventdrabbles first prompt is up!!! For those that haven't played before you can write one drabble a day or pick and choose the prompts you like. You don't even have to use the prompts. It's not just for HP either. Your fics can be true drabbles of 100 words or mini-ficlets. Oh, and I always forget drawbles. I might try to do one or two this year-that's always embarrassing. :P I had a blast last year-I wrote every day plus I did a 14 day series to finish it off. Not sure whether I'll manage that again but I do want to at least write every day.
Fests--santas_lap is already up and running. daily_deviant's Kinky Kristmas, snarry_holidays and mini_fest (this one over on LJ) all begin posting tomorrow. No doubt other fests do too but these are the ones I am participating in! *dances* I will mention mini_fest again because the only requirement was 500 words so there should be some little gems in there; bit sized morsels for when you only have a little time. I'll be trying to rec from all of these and others. Sleep? Who needs it?
Everybody ready for some awesome holiday cheer? :D

Fic! I posted fic!
accioslash requested that I save Thicker Than Water for santas_lap, since that fest wasn't getting a lot of love this year, so I've made it my first entry into the fest. Finally, my LLM fic is delivered only 11 months late. Please heed the warnings!
In other news, anyone wanting stuff from Antemortem Arts or my Etsy shop can mention this post and get 20% off through tomorrow (as a refund).
But really, I POSTED FIC!

Enough already
Hello, dear neglected f-list. Long time no see.
I'm not having a good weekend at all, and today I am closer than I've ever been to tossing my laptop off the roof and joining a commune that disavows that Demon Electricity.
Gah, it feels like all I ever do these days is bitch about technical stuff, sorry for that, but if it would just throw me a fucking bone I would not have to. Aldi and I have already vowed never to take streaming episodes for granted again; now I long for those blissful days when I could complete the entire conversion-editing-rendering process without wanting to bludgeon something.
In happier news, we did close the gap between our old timeline (the AWZ episodes that aired long before we started EKP) and the current storyline we're covering. It's quite an accomplishment -- we've got nearly 500 videos! Not to mention, tons of love from all the viewers. *cuddles you lot*
And we got this adorable comment from some poor naive soul: I was just wondering about the description for one of the episodes. It said "Marian's totally proud of his lover Etienne evading the police". This made me a little confused... did Marian have a thing with Etienne and Mike? I'm a little confused. I thought he was with Nadja? Could you clear this confusion up for me? Aw, bless. No, Schatz, much as we like to pretend that everybody on this show is gay, that's just in our imaginations. SO FAR.
Well, it's time to get back to work and see if I can't battle this into submission. We've got an episode to get out!
current mood:  stressed

Storytime!
When I was three or four, my parents rented The Terminator and it scared the shit out me, right? Like it would. And right outside my bedroom door, perfectly visible from my bed, were the controls for the house's air exchange system, which naturally had two little red glowing lights. It freakin' TERRIFIED me. FOR YEARS. Arnold Schwarzenegger was going to kill me in my SLEEP.
Now, on a week-long marathon through the Terminator movies and the Sarah Connor Chronicles, skinless Terminators are not scary. No, no. They are sexy. I kinda want to make out with one. And by 'kinda' I mean 'really, really'.
I'm not sure what to do with that, except troll the internet for Marcus Wright/John Connor porn. Ahar.
Or any Terminator porn, really.

Random stuff I'm thinking about
1. Is it just me, or did Legend of the Seeker kick it up a notch in the past two episodes and start decreasing the pretty:interesting ratio? (While arguably getting prettier, even!)
2. Consider, if you will, that the all-male lawyers at this Texas firm saw nothing wrong with the images appearing on their website. (Possibly triggery for sexual abuse/child abuse.) I actually believe very strongly that we need defense lawyers who specialize in crimes for which even defending an accused is excoriated—but this isn’t the way to do it.
3. Now for something completely different. I am a technological incompetent with a CMS on my website and a planned move to a new webhost. Anybody have recommendations for cheap assistance doing the move? And by assistance, I mean: somebody to whom I could trust with my site password and have the thing moved? Because the semester is so crazy, we’re probably looking at a move in early 2010.
