Jun. 25th, 2004 09:09 amI'm doing the X-Men Movieverse recs on
crack_van for July. Yes, I'm a glutton for punishment. Why do you ask?
Also, I think my
xmmficathon story is a perfect example of how I operate when I write. Spend weeks on end fretting about a deadline, try desperately to come up with a serious plotline, realize it reads like a dozen other fics and freak out, get the option to turn the request back in and nervously wonder for days whether I should, then say, "Fuck it," and write something incredibly silly and goofy at the last possible second.

And once again, the drivers waited until The Last Fucking Second On The Planet(TM) to bring me their attempted freight. Gee, thanks, guys. You just added another half hour to my night. *growls*
Urgh. *headdesk*
EDIT: Oh, and Britney's engaged to be married. Again. Help me out here ... did I miss the news story where you win a prize or a tax break or a pony or something for marrying the most stupid people in one year's time?
