Number 83 on Phoenix's Top Ways to Procrastinate: a meme!

From vimtastic:

Ask me a fandom, and I will tell you:

+ OTP
+ Runner-up
+ Honorable mention(s)
+ Crack pairing(s)
+ Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't

You can see most of my fandoms on my profile or in my tagging system. And BREAK!


This weekend has been supremely unproductive, as per uz. I've at least managed to get some of my homework done tonight, though I'm sure I'll be up for a little while getting the rest of my readings done. Not to mention my poem, poem analyses, and the analytical paper I need to write for my law class. One thing I managed this weekend: going to Steak & Shake for the first time EVER. At 1 AM. Delish!! (I want another milkshake now.)

Anyway, my sleep schedule is kind of screwed up, especially since I was up until 6 am the night before last (thank you, FBHIMYMRPG. Yes, I broke out the full acronym, bitches). My goal before going to sleep: reading and commenting on 5 classmates' poems, at least starting on my own, and reading some Thorpe Moeckel and some of Forster's Passage to India. Why do I always have so much dang HOMEWORK to do?!

One plus about tomorrow: new HIMYM tomorrow night!! (Which reminds me, STILL have not gotten to my rewatch of last week. I think this is a new record!) Plus, new Castle, new Glee, new Office, new Dollhouse, plus Project Runway and Top Chef... God, I love having new TV to watch!!

I've made it through the second week of school in one piece. Been kept extremely busy with stuff lately, though. It seems every spare second I ever have is taken up with something for class or Res Life or RP... I've barely had time to even do my reading this week. Though I have gone to the gym nearly every day for the past week and a half, which is probably the thing I'm most proud of this week. =D

The one productive thing I managed to do was write my first poem for poetry class, though even that turned out to be based on RP events, which have been consuming my brain this week, even more so than usual.

( Poem! )

Some day, I need to write something more substantial than a poem or a drabble or a blog entry. About anything, not necessarily this scenario.

Anyway, ( fandoms! (Including mild spoilers for ep2 of Glee and season 7 of Buffy) )

That's it for me for now. My goal today: to actually get work done.

I'm back from hiatus, y'all!

I'll do a cut just to save your flists.

( Look, I've got better things to do than sit around and write songs about some guy named Ted Mosby, okay? )

You thought I was up early? Nooooope. I'm up LATE. Very late. =D

I saw the sun set, and I saw the sun come up, which has only ever happened to me once, and back when that happened, I wanted to die. I don't now, though. I'm just more reluctant to start sleeping because... well, it's morning now.

Anyway, I haven't had an actual update for... a while? My journal got taken over by the RP for a while there. Just like my life was! Um, I mean... is. But my journal's returning to normal service now, since we created the himym_roleplay community, which has been my home for the past, oh, twelve hours.

I'm just going to keep babbling now until I pass out. So excuse me while I'm being random. Because I feel... like being random. What?

( It's just r-random! )

Followup to the convo Barney and Robin had once Ted left the hospital room. You'll see.

( In which Barney and Ted have a heart-to-heart. Sort of. )

*dies from awesomeness of the RP*

Today I has... several more. Man, I'm so glad I'm saving all these Facebook chat sessions!

This first one is actually another Ted/Marshall snippet from Tuesday night: otempora42 was particularly interested in seeing it. Special invisible guest star = Victoria!

( In which GNB is likened to Marshgammon )

Okay. Now for today: Barney wakes up, and Ted and Barney finally get to talk to each other in the hospital.
( In which there are not nearly enough bro hugs )

Simultaneously, Ted's chatting with Robin, asking her where she is:
( In which Robin definitely did NOT bring her gun to the hospital )
Ted walked out to give them some privacy after that, so... hopefully either idioticonion or secondmezzanine is saving that chat!


Lastly (just because I find this extremely hilarious) one of Ted's random French friends IMed him (aka me) this morning, and after a little awkward chitchat between strangers, this happened:
( In which da_phoenix13 totally stays in character because she's AWESOME )

Oh, FBHIMYMRPG. *hugs the extremely long acronym*

I feel like I need to write some kind of Ted fic around all this DRAMA, but I have no idea where to start. He's got a lot going on.

Or something. Hehehe.

The transcript really speaks for itself, but just in case: in the roleplay AU, Robin (the incredible edible secondmezzanine) and Ted (me) are in the hospital waiting room, going crazy waiting to hear something about Barney's condition. Awesomeness ensues.

( In which Robin and Ted take matters into their own hands... )

Yet another transcript from last night's FBHIMYMRPG insanity... this is just a brief snip from a four-hour conversation that Ted (me) and Marshall (darlingchaos) had as part of the Facebook RP. Posting it because... it was amazing. That's the only reason.

Still trying to come up with a way to convert Ted's thoughts into fic form (which has been really freaking hard since he's sort of caught in the middle of all this stuff), but in the meantime, here you go.

( In which Ted and Marshall freak out. A lot. )

Crazy, crazy things are happening over on the FB roleplay. So crazy and epic that I had to come post about them.

Previously: Barney and Robin have gone to LA so Barney can help James deal with his own relationship drama. Meanwhile, Barney's running on 0 sleep over 3-4 days and is busy awesomeing and banging hotel employees and hallucinating parrots everywhere, and took some crazy stuff from this parking attendant or something (uppers? No idea) to help himself stay awake.

Meanwhile, Ted's really worried, wondering what the heck's going on over in Cali since all he's gotten are vague wall posts and status updates, and he asked Lily if he should go over there, even though Barney's supposed to be coming back tomorrow. And the following chats ensued (along with the one over at Otemps's journal).

(I guess rated adult for... Barney-ness? And Barney rubbing off on Ted?)

( Ted's chat with Barney )




( Ted's chat with Robin )


Oh, and IO? STOP GIVING BARNEY SUICIDAL STATUSES. It's freaking me out.




EDIT: Ted's convo with Barney, part dos:

( In which Ted's fears are totally not relieved at all )

Fandom: HIMYM
Rating: PG
Word Count: 543
Pairing: none
Summary: It's always been so easy for Ted to fall in love.
AN: Playing Ted in the HIMYM RPG has given me a somewhat different perspective on his character (or at least made me consider who Ted really is), so here I am to share what I think lies beneath the gelled blackish hair. (And IO, please forgive me for the shameless ripoff. =P)


( When Ted likes someone... )

My latest and greatest way to procrastinate: get an alter ego.

( RP fun and school YAYZ under the cut! )
