After being with Laurel for almost a week, being back home and eating alone is very disconcerting. She thinks so too.

Berkeley and SF were amazing! Laurel's hospitality was fantastic and we did many fun things together (including FINISHING OUR CRACK XD) and she was very kind to not only put me up but put up with me. XD; We also managed to spend an insane amount of money and effort to get down to the Death of a Party concert in Santa Cruz. Freakin' taxis! D:< And even though their set was 7 songs / 20 mins long, and we two were the only ones even there for them in particular, IT WAS EPIC. Gareth careened into me. Twice. And talked to us a bit after. :3 (Apparently he also has a next band called Chambers, we think. Here's hoping it'll be as astounding.) I am also astonished at how much walking I did during this trip. And traveling. But mostly walking. If I would only do it more often...

Ugh, I swear I spent wayy too much money there. Bought stuff from Rasputin and Comic Relief, bought stuff from Chinatown, bought varying kinds of food and drink, bought varying kinds of transportation... It really never ends. >.> Happily, I deposited my check from work today, which was substantial, and can pay off some of my credit bills and still have a bit after. So though I have depleted my savings, I am not broke. W00t! As per the (late) season, we also exchanged gifts. I gave her the hardcover Miss Finch graphic novel and variuos pandabaka goodies, and she gave me Light and the Sufferer and a TARDIS. Well. A very flat, miniature one without a working door. But I love it. :D Needless to say, once she opened her presents, I was glomped. <3

And did I mention we FINISHED OUR CRACK?! Seriously!! It must be the end of the world. Me? Laurel? Finishing something? Oh, but its grand. The grandest TpWP ever created! (That's to scale!) Shirosaki/Hirako FTW. We're posting it soon, I think. Then I'll link to it. But be warned: The 'T' stands for TORTURE. Bloody, violent, painful torture. So don't say I didn't warn you.

Now, I wonder what we'll write next?

Edit: OMG ELEVEN HAS BEEN CHOSEN!!! AGHHH!! He's Matt Smith, he's 26, and he's pretty damn cute. Also, he'll make an awesomely ridiculous and un!taken-seriously Doctor. Which will make it so much more fun. Can't wait for Season 5--2010, so far away...!!!

This is why Neil is my idol. Aside from his storytelling gift. :3

I've now gotten into Ragnarok Online, and though being a novice is rather hellish, it is pretty fun. Kind of odd to have to level up by fighting such weak monsters, but... It's how it goes. Also, should be booking my flight up to Berkeley soon! *crosses fingers* And I managed to write more crack! Hallelujah!

Ohh yes and such some of the greatest news: Toadies are back!!! Agh I can finally see them in concert~~. Their new CD's pretty damn cool too. Ahh they must come to CA......!!



Right. I need to find everyone's Christmas presents.

....AGH AND CAMACAKE PICS MUST BE SCANNED AND COLOURED. DD: Grr stupid scanner. D:<

Yaaaaay~

Crack is getting done. Not the drug. The stories. WE ARE ACTUALLY WRITING CRACK. SUCH MADNESS. XD;;  ...Shirosaki/Hirako FTW. :D

I have been almost continuously hungry for the last two days. It's really annoying and horrible and weird because sometimes I'm hungry but I have no appetite, so it's just pain. And then there's the fact that we have little food in my house lately. Apparently the hunger is my reaction to the medication I've begun taking at my mom's request. Antidepressants. Not sure if they're working aside from the side effects. >.>

And of course the obligatory JSAKJBFKSJFAKDKVJSLBKSHFB SWEETHEART TOMORROW.

I love my fangirliness. XD;;

So I'm back and unpacked from two days of AX! It would've been nice to post after each day, but our hotel didn't have accessible Internet. Or at least, we couldn't find it. >.> Hmm... Begin at the beginning, as they say.
