More about that SYTYCD thing from before. )

I have no idea why I've been reading People of Wal-Mart when I'm mostly making mental tallies of just how classist, sizeist, and sexist the vast majority of these entries are. Ugh. Even Stuff Christian Culture Likes isn't this bad.

Hee!

Top 50 Vampires: The Ultimate Score Sheet

Good for identifying who's got superstrength, who can fly, and who sparkles in sunlight.

I want that thing as a poster for my wall. (OMG JEREMY CAPELLO IS ON THERE. \O/ Damn it, why hadn't I seen that last week? I would have nominated My Best Friend Is A Vampire for Yuletide. Awww.)

I've spent all day working on Heroine Addiction and haven't finished a chapter yet. *headdesk*

BUT -- a big 'but' -- what I'm trying to do is get all of the dialogue written out so I can just pound out the action around it. I figure if I can get all that done, then not only can I figure out exactly how many chapters I have left (I'm not sure I need all the ones I have now), but framing them in dialogue means I should be able to bang them out faster later.

I just want to try to get one more chapter framed in dialogue before SYTYCD starts, because after that I'm going to try and finish the chapter I was supposed to finish yesterday so that I'm only one chapter behind rather than two.

Oh, man, the headache I have right now, you don't even KNOW.

You know what? I really should just avoid talking to my great-aunt and great-uncle for a while, just because they make me even more paranoid about my current job situation. They've both been laid off for longer than I have, and they're pretty much retired now anyway, and they have no CLUE what they're doing when they file. So they have problems and then they call the number for Pennsylvania's unemployment hotline and I get the impression the people on the other end of the line are making them do things because they're older and have no idea what they're doing with computers, and then they come to me and say, "You better watch, because I stopped getting my unemployment!"

Except my great-aunt's been laid off nigh on forever at this point and my great-uncle has to do it over the phone now for some reason that I doubt has to do with his being over.

See, if I'm doing my math right, I'm good until something like April what with the extensions and all, not to mention that I'm still signed up with the temp agency that got me the hotel job (not that they've called me to offer me something else, but still), so the situation's not exactly dire.

Still. No more talking to them about unemployment. They make me terrified I'm going to end up, like, homeless and eating my car, just because I'll be too traumatized to think, "Hey, I should live in this instead!"
