I've had my prompt for the d/g ficexchange for a week and the outlook is good. I have the first chapter written, and it already looks like it's going to be another monster...15,000 words, maybe? I'm at 2000 words and I'm 3/4 of the way through the exposition. I'm actually researching stuff that already exists rather than making crap up, so that's different. The prompt is pretty vague, anyway, so I'm not too concerned about disappointing her/him/it?

I Think someone is trying (poorly, I might add) to hack in to my gmail account. Why, I ask you, would anyone try to do this? That account doesn't hold the secrets of the universe. It's mostly fandom stuff and friends. I also use it to send pictures, as it does that more easily than my other one. Not even naughty pictures. Boring ones. Seriously. Nothing juicy there. Quit it, already, huh?

Here's what I'm dealing with. I have lost a friend. I'm mourning this relationship, and I can't stop. I was very close to this person, and then literally, in the span of a week, they got very terse with me, responded to me in one or two words, and began ignoring me altogether. I'm not one of those people who's needy, so I tried to treat them the same way that I always had before they started getting snippy, with pleasant facial expressions and kindness, but it was met with negativity on just about every count. It must be them, as nothing changed with me. And I'm not about to ask them, "Did I do something to upset you?" as this is not junior high. My feelings are the same as before. I adore this person and had a lot of laughs and tons in common, and they know a lot of my deep, dark secrets. So I miss them. I miss our conversations. And I'm sad. Frankly, I'm hoping that I can do the whole mourning process fairly quickly, as I'm a little sick of moping about it all. Do I seem to be handing this correctly?

I also rented Supernatural, and I totally loved the pretty! It's kind of creepy, and I screamed out loud at one point, but Jensen and Jared make up for it.

numbaby, why didn't you force me to do this months ago? I've watched to first 4 episodes, and I'll go get the rest of Season One today. I'm also expecting the fourth disc of Firefly and Serenity from Netflix today. It's gonna be a fun TV-watching weekend.

Alright... you caught me. I'm trying to get into your gmail account. I'll quit it. ;)

Okay, so I'm not... but I DO think you're handlingthe friendship thing very well. It is sad to lose a friendship, especially since you weren't aware that it was in trouble... but what you're doing seems right. Perhaps they are having a bad week, or maybe they're just barmy. Who knows, but not getting yourself into a tizzy is the best way to go!

I can't believe you are that far into your exchange fic. You AND drangonsangel. AHGHG. I've had my prompt longer than you both and I have done the research and written out a few moments of dialogue, but that's it. I was even contemplating typing up the last chapter of my WIP BEFORE moving on to the exchange fic. Clearly, I have to sort out my priorities. ;)

Hey, thanks for not hacking. I appreciate it. ;)

Priorities? I haven't worked on my own stuff in weeks. Do I feel guilty? Um, a little. But the siren call of D/G is pretty strong! You better get crackin', missy!

No. Well, you have a little over a month, but still. *cracks whip*
