And Now, It's Time For --

"I Should Really Be In Bed" Trivia!

-->Today's Girl Genius contains Gil. Saying, "THAT is the ONE thing I DON'T have to worry about." Concerning Agatha and the Kestle. On FRIDAY THE FRICKING 13TH.
I smell doom. Lots of doomy doom.

-->He does get some great facial expressions in said strip though, so I can forgive him for saying words of doom.

-->Did you know that, if you google the phrase "Doc Brown Fan Fiction," the very first hit is my own "The Abominable Doc Brown?" The third hit is the reviews for said story. (They're separated by Charles Murphy's site.) *feels special*

Okay, it's 1 o'clock in the morning. I have to get to sleep.

Have Game, Will Play

Doing a little Jetpack Doc. Game's still as fun as I remember. :)
-D: I still want to know what on earth it is he's shooting at those kids.-
Nerf balls? Got me. I wonder if I'll ever get back up to my old record.
-VD: Depends on how long you have it for.-
Well, it's fun, and it's a nice break from Spider Solitaire and Exile.
-VD: And it's BTTF-themed, which is a plus with us.-
Exactly. :)
-OD: How was work today? *tentacles chatter* The boys noted you weren't in a horrid mood.-
Eh, better than yesterday -- customers were more spread out. And I got two pages on "From the Ashes Reborn," so I can't complain. I do have a few specific thoughts:
-->It looked like we lost a slip for a while -- I finally spotted it in with the URI/Pt Judith orders (it was a Pt Judith order, but tagged in with one of OUR tag sets instead of theirs). It would just figure we'd lose slip number 666 on Friday the 13th.
-->Do my customers have the brainworms? Why is it half the people who write checks have to ask me the name of the cleaner's?! How could they not KNOW? *shakehead*
-->Friday the 13th was anything but unlucky for business today -- we took in near $2000 dollars in one drawer.
-->Next week, one of my coworkers is on vacation, so I get to come in early the whole week. Joy.
-M: I think you're planning a humor fic where I get slammed in my job.-
-MF: *sniffs the plotbunnies*-
A few vague ideas, yes. Luckily, most of the horror stories I've heard and not experienced. So you may get off yet.
-HD: What are you planning to do this weekend?-
-MHG: You owe us another chapter.-
I know, I'm working on it. The usual editing's always up, and I want to start on "What Lies Within," the long backtothefanfic challenge fic. I'm a little nervous -- the only chapter stories I've ever "freewritten" are "Catfight" and "The Doc Hunter." Can I do angst without a guide?
-DW: Well, these plot bunnies are pretty well formed.-
-VD2: Go ahead and give it a try. If you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything. *pause* Except getting in our pants.-
Oh, I can get in your pants very easily.
-VD2: *raises eyebrow* Really.-
Yup. *leaves room*
*returns wearing a pair of multi-pocketed khakis* See? I'm in your pants.
-HD: *giggle*-
-WRM: I wouldn't laugh, those might be YOUR pants.-
HatterDoc wears khakis?
-HD: Infrequently. The multiple pockets are nice for extra storage.-
-TD: I have a pair too, mostly for lab wear. Which reminds me, I need to throw them in the wash.-
Huh. I just never thought about you guys dressing like 1985 Doc.
-TD: It happens. We like pockets.-
Heh. Anyway, yeah, I'll see about starting that this weekend. In addition, I'll be doing some editing to "The Abominable Doc Brown," since it's the lead-in. I've already moved the story up to late March/early April of 1986, since "Congraduation" implied Marty and Clara were getting along better.
-VD2: Interesting. I'll talk to TrilogyDoc and see if he has anything to say.-
-OD: Can you pretend to work on fanart?-
I'll do my best. I do have sketches of White Rabbit Marty and March Hare George's heads.
-OD: *tentacles chatter* It's a start, yes.-
-RPD: What about Sims?-
( Well, It's Friday the 13th )

Okay, I think I'll actually do some writing.
-Docs: *fake shock, horror*-
Ha ha ha. You boys are a laugh riot.
-TTV: Can we watch MST3K?-
-D: Victor!-
-TTV: I'm sorry, but I just got a call from Maudeline. I need something to cheer myself up.-
-HD: *evil* Bring her over here sometime, that should cheer you up immensely.-
-TTV: Some days, I'm almost tempted.-
Writing first!
