I HATH BEEN TAGGED

From rayerai...

IF YOU’VE BEEN TAGGED, YOU MUST WRITE YOUR ANSWERS IN YOUR OWN LJ AND REPLACE ANY QUESTION THAT YOU DISLIKE WITH A NEW QUESTION. TAG ELEVEN PEOPLE. DON’T REFUSE TO DO THAT. DON’T TAG WHO TAGGED YOU.


→ What song are you currently addicted to?
UNKLE - With You In My Head.

→ What's your favorite season?
Autumn.

→ Do you ever go to movies by yourself?
I actually love to do it, but I don't that often. I saw both Kill Bill movies by myself.

→ How old is your oldest friendship?
Seventeen years and counting.

→ What's your favorite musical instrument?
Piano.

→ Who are your favorite classical (broad definition of classical) composers?
Mozart, Chopin, Satie

→ What was the last thing you bought?
Lunch.

→ Do you like dogs?
Sometimes. I get annoyed with the waggy-ass ones that never sit still. I think German Shep's are sweet and Irish wolfhounds are positively *magical* creatures. Generally though I'm more of a cat person.

→ Favourite time of day?
Early evening.

→ What's the last thing that made you happy?
Last night I was in one of those moods where EVERY SONG IS SO BEAUTIFUL.

→ What is your unattainable dream job?
I would love to be involved in films; back when this was actually a goal of mine I thought I wanted to do editing. I'd pretty much be ecstatic with the "put this song with this scene" job, but I think that's usually a directorial decision.

→ Five material things you want?
Corduroy TOMS, a pencil skirt, a Kindle or something of the like, a new and fuel-efficient car, a laptop that doesn't make stupid noises.

→ Favorite colors?
Green, red.


And I am REFUSING TO TAG, other than just anyone who wants to do this, cause I don't wanna be annoying and tag people who've done it already.

TIME TO CRY IN MY CAKE.

So I had to drop startrekbigbang. My fic is simply too long. What I have written is nearing something like 60K and is only about 75% of the actual story as I'm looking at my little outline of doom here. Not gonna lie, I'm pretty sad about this because I felt like I was closer to the end than I actually was and it was kind of a sudden decision for me, and a really tough call. As it is I feel like it's far from impossible for me to finish at this point, but the dealbreaker is having the worry that I won't be able to fix things into as good a shape as I would want to otherwise. It's just really frustrating, when I've planned out the entire thing as working really well in one format and suddenly it's something that will just be a regular multi-chaptered fic. And even if I could see myself bringing this idea back next year (I'm patient, but I don't know), I actually already have another fic I'm planning on writing if I sign up again as it was the idea I dropped to work on the newer idea. Fuck-a-doodle-doo.

I will probably make myself feel better by posting a snippet of the fic at some point, now that I'm totally allowed to do that. But as of now I may actually get something done for reel_startrek, which is nice. It's just kind of weird to suddenly place my priority on something else after being so singularly focused on the big bang for months.
