Rightio, so let's just all pretend that the time since Tuesday has actually just been one REALLY long day and that I'm not actually complete and utter fail!!

Okay, that's better!

THE HAPPINESS MEME

Rules: For eight days you have to post something that made you happy that day. Tag eight people to do the same.


DAY FOUR (THE INCREDIBLY LONG DAY THAT KIND OF FEELS LIKE FIVE DAYS FOR SOME WEIRD REASON

* MERLIN!! OMG, MERLIN!! I did not intend to watch you, even though my entire flist was flailing over you, because I thought to myself "self, you do not need another fandom and really, how good can it be?" and then I sat there and proceeded to watch the whole thing, without moving off the couch except to get snackfoods. Arthur has incredibly broad shoulders and a GIANT crush on Merlin, and Merlin has cheekbones that could cut glass and a GIANT crush on Arthur and I have a GIANT girlcrush on Morgana. (And also, wasn't Inoue played by the girl who was Zoe Slater on Eastenders? I thought she was supposed to be in Ibiza, not Camelot!!!)

* MERLIN FIC!!! YOU ARE JUST AS GOOD AS EVERYBODY SAYS YOU ARE!! I also love how every second person in Merlin fandom, I am recogising from either JE or SPN fandom, I WONDER WHAT THE COMMON THREAD HERE IS???? Not that I've delved all that far into Merlin fandom as yet, because it didn't take long for me to get distracted by shiny, shiny Arashi fic. <3 (Though, if anyone has recs, lay them on me!!! [livejournal.com profile] fluttering, I've worked my way through your AWESOME LIST OF AWESOMENESS!!)

* Speaking of Arashi fic, I read Things to do in Uzbekistan, which is like an Ohmiya SK origins fic, based on Ohmiya's own history for SK, and maybe everyone else has already read it, I don't know, but it's the greatest thing ever!!

* Although, Saudade by [livejournal.com profile] waxrose is one of the most perfect things I've read in my life. This totally isn't supposed to be turning into a reclist, but hey, I've read a lot of fic lately!! XP

* Got paid!!! HELLO, COFFEE, I HAVE MISSED YOU TERRIBLY!!! <3333333

* Finished chapter 4 of my novel!!! Am actually happy with it! That brings my total word count up to almost 45,000, go me! Had a brief period of writer's block, but then started watching the Time concert and became unstuck around Friendship, and by Pikanchi Double, I was done. YAY!!! XDDDD

* My internet managed to stay connected for our writer's group!! Good times were had by all and [livejournal.com profile] maegunnbatt made it online, yay!! <333333

* Had coffee with ex-boyfriend and the Cute Kitchen Boy acted suspiciously unhappy about this! Also, ex-boyfriend paid for coffee!! And herb bread! XD

* My sister came home for the weekend, as she has been stuck in Canberra and UNABLE TO WATCH THE JOHNNY'S COUNTDOWN! Watched it. It was still awesome.

* Wrote two chapters of AWESOME PRIVATE DETECTIVE!ARASHI FIC!! They wear trenchcoats!! JUN IS A LOUNGE SINGER! KAT-TUN are mafia guys and NEWS ARE HOT COPS!! (Except Massu, he's just a regular cop XP) Will probably need to find a beta at some point, as my tenses are all over the place and I'm worried about people being OOC.

* Uta no Oniisan. MORE LIKE UTA NO AWESOME!!! HE'S WEARING A PANDA SUIT, YOU GUYS!! A PANDA SUIT!! Only six more days, yay!!

* My nephew's housemate works at an electronics store and he's getting me a SUPER CHEAP new modem/router thingie, which means soon I won't have spastic internets anymore, BIG YAY!!!



Speaking of spastic internets, that's why my commenting has been so random lately, in case you were wondering.

Wowsers, I sure did pack a lot into that day!!! XP

I was going to do other memes too, but I kind of want to get this posted before my internet dies again, so I'll do them tomorrow.

Anyhoo, how are you guys??? <33333

Things That Are Awesome!

1. This icon! Looking at it makes me happy. XD

2. New friends!! Hello, [livejournal.com profile] a_brokenangel, [livejournal.com profile] audny_albatross, [livejournal.com profile] augustfai, [livejournal.com profile] denwa, [livejournal.com profile] fluttering, [livejournal.com profile] hitorikiri, [livejournal.com profile] inuhariko, [livejournal.com profile] karasu_0, [livejournal.com profile] midori_uma, [livejournal.com profile] mutekinonna, [livejournal.com profile] penmi, [livejournal.com profile] roobes83, [livejournal.com profile] sapah_fu, [livejournal.com profile] shigai and [livejournal.com profile] viridian_virtue!! (I really hope I didn't forget anyone!) Um, I may have gone a little crazy on the JE friending meme, I guess, but new friends are always good!! I should probably make an introductory post or something. Maybe tomorrow.

3. HANADAN FINAL! It was awesome and Hanadan-ish and it had THIS AMAZING TIGER PRINT SHIRT!!!** Sometimes I forget how much I love him!

4. "Beautiful Days" goes on sale when I'm in Tokyo!! This means I can go and buy it from an actual shop!! This probably shouldn't be nearly as exciting for me as it is, but, well, it is!! So far, everything about Ryusei no Kizuna seems awesome, though I'm a little worried about the influence Ryo will have on sweet, innocent Nino I haven't been this excited about a new drama since... Maou.

5. I went to the footy on Saturday night (which wasn't awesome) and met [livejournal.com profile] potterette (which was)!! She gave me an awesome pair of St Kilda socks, which cheered me up throughout our 10 goal belting. Because we lost, it was Robert Harvey's last game (he's been playing since 1987, that's 21 years for anyone who can't be bothered adding it up) and everyone spent the last 15 or so minutes cheering his name, it was very emotional. I've never seen so many tough-looking men crying before.

6. It was my sister's birthday the other day. She has always sworn she hates KAT-TUN, but sometimes I'll catch her secretly listening to them, so because I'm hilarious awesome, I bought her Queen of Pirates. I got a text message from her the next day at work that said "Queen of Pirates - more like QUEEN OF AWESOME!" and now I kind of want a t-shirt that says that.

7. Ohmiya Magic!! Riida looks so proud of himself*** for pulling off what was possibly the lamest magic trick since Gob Bluth made the family boat disappear! <3

8. Went to Karaoke for my sister's birthday and we rocked the bollocks out of A.RA.SHI! (Okay, that sounded kind of wrong!) And by rocked, I mean we sang it and did the dance moves, though I can't say if there was anything tuneful involved. I kind of failed at the rap part too. But we still rocked!!

9. Tickets for Arashi in Korea go on sale Wednesday morning and I am getting them. I am determined!! Because apparently NINO is doing NIJI instead of Gimmick Game and there is no freaking way on this planet I'm missing it!


Things That Aren't

1. I'm sick again, or possibly still. I had a throat infection last week and missed a few days of work and today it seems like it's moved to my chest (is that even possible?) and couldn't go in again. Tomorrow seems unlikely too. Luckily, I've been saving like a crazy saving person and this isn't going to screw me up too badly for Japan. (Which is only 5 weeks and 10 hours away, YAY!!)

2. My modem keeps randomly turning itself off, wtf? And when I walk over to reset it, it magically comes back on again, but as soon as I sit down, that's right, off again. It's like a war of wills between the modem and me, and I think the modem has the upper hand. I've got back to skip 100 on my flist, but I think I will have to leave the rest of my catching up for tomorrow, because I can't win this epic standoff while I'm sleepy. XP


**Not behind a cut because Matsufashion makes people's lives 500% better
***Also not cut because Riida is too cute
