writerly things and such

[seventhe]

I appear to be slowly but surely working my way back into writing - despite someone who takes up all my at-home time! - mostly due to assorted challenges and comms and such, but also because I've discovered the trick to writing at work. (My job has a lot of 10-15 minute down-times, which, if you can avoid being a scatterbrain, ends up being perfect wordvomit time, and that's what I started brokenprism for.) And I'm starting to feel the urge to launch something multichaptered again.

Although first, I must finish SLG. Liek woah. Stupid, stupid me.

I've been struck with plotbunnies for FFIV, FFVI, FFVIII, and FFX; and I still have a ton of one-shot FFVII-fic running around my head; and that doesn't include the crossover of doom that I am dying to rewrite just to prove that my teenaged ideas weren't entirely shite. I need to learn to finish my stupid projects first and start new ones second. Damns!

In other, unrelated news: I think the 100 Cans of Blatz party is going to be postponed for the moment, mostly because we haven't come up with enough friends to drink 100 cans of Blatz in one evening. So I have a feeling we'll all just be going to the Dugout for Jeff's birthday. Unless hilldo wants to loan his house out for a barbecue? HINT HINT.

Psst.

Aurora Project.

Do it do it do it.

*grin* You realize that would basically be a complete rewrite? Because not only do I forget what happened in the middle (although I do remember the ending), I've learned so much more about that fandom that I feel the need to start over? XDD

(p.s. keep poking me. I NEED MOTIVATIONS.)

Yeah...umm...kind of hard to have a barbeque when you don't have a grill.

Although is plenty of fresh rabbit and deer in the backyard if you are patient.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

Fuxor!

Oh well, Dugout it is! It will be karaoke night! Unless you've got any better ideas?

(See, I figure the 100-cans-of-blatz party can wait until we find at least 10 people.)

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

Ya not that you asked me how many people I could get...but what would that matter it would just be happening at my place and all. *smack*

And apparently email notifications not working for me today.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

I thought you were part of this party planning!!

So, how many people can you get, then? And by people I mean people willing to drink 10+ cans of Blatz. I don't think there are tons of those people available, really.

I was just kind of counting a limited J-Squad (me, you, Jeff, Jason) and then Kurtifer might drink ten between the two of them if we're nice. That's only halfway.

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

ya as i recall I told you to call me back on monday to figure things out...but honestly I don't think anyone should drink more than 5 cans of blatz anyway cause that stuff destroys your stomach.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

I actually was going to call you, but I wanted to talk with Jeff first and figure out his plans. So don't be all insulted-like. XDDD

And yeah, we shouldn't drink more than 5 ...but same goes for Genesee Cream Ale, doesn't it

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

omg same definitely goes with genessee. I was honestly goign to have a blatz in one hand and a bottle of water in the other (hard to tell them apart I know) just to insure I lived to see the morning.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

you'll be peeing like a fiend then, but ...you'll probably be peeing on all of our unconscious bodies.

i thought 10 each was a fair amount ... you say no?

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

Can't really say, I try not to drink more than 2 of them in a row without mixing something else in between.

Perhaps a blatz and punch will have to be in order. May have to have a small gathering to perfect the recipe.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

I'd say I have just the thing for the punch, but it's likely to get us all killed.

My drummer's uncle makes this homemade moonshine that's really tasty and really strong and would be wicked awesome in punch because it's so damn powerful.

This would be good if we're drinking Blatz, since Blatz basically has no alcohol.

However, it would be overwhelmingly bad in that Blatz + como vesa would probably fucking kill everyone.

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

yes if the goal is to get us to drink a lot of blatz combining it with moonshine is not the way to do it!!!

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

No, not at all. We do need something to wash the Blatz down with, then.

However if we bring in another kind of beverage it probably cuts everyone's maximum number of blatz cans...

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

yes...it would have to be blatz and something non-alcoholic...like kool aid.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

then we'll vomit fo sho. blatz + huge amounts of sugar??

somehow i am seeing no good solution to this!

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

you just have to think outside the box. Your problem is you still think blatz is disgusting.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

Your problem is you refuse to admit that Blatz is disgusting.

[jennyclarinet.livejournal.com]

No 99 bottles of Blatz on the Wall? Oh well...if it's not good for your stomach, then it's probably for the best, especially mixed with moonshine.

When is The Italian One's birthday?

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

Oh, we'll still have the party, it just has to wait until I can come up with enough people to guarantee that nobody dies in James's house.

His actual birthday is July 18, which is next Tuesday. Which is a shitty day for a party. Hence, this weekend. :P
