Wrestling with other people's computer issues delayed this post.

How goes everyone else this hour?

Leaping back in to work on the Bleach fic I was working on this morning. Still needs a title and an ending, but it's ordered a little better now.

Yay for sorting the order :)

Wondering what the Doctor did to cause Hour 44 to repeat itself.

*whistles innocently*

He won't tell me but its gone now...

752 words on the Eleven fic this evening, which is better than yesterday. For some reason, Eleven's chaining Rory and Amy to a bed. No, it's not what you think! O.o

Does it involve nakedness and cake?

[jjpor.livejournal.com]

No, but it should...

[pitry.livejournal.com]

All fic should involve nakedness and cake. Not necessarily in that order.

[lolmac]

It absolutely should.

[jjpor.livejournal.com]

I can't argue with that. It's like one of the fundamental rules of fic or something... :D

*eyebrow raised*

Okayyyy....

It's for their own good! Honest! XD

[pitry.livejournal.com]

A-ha. *believes JJ*

[curuchamion.livejournal.com]

I believe JJ too.

Honest.

;-)

(Good to see you here, jjpor! I was just thinking of you... my new fish icon seems be about as apropos for every situation as your fantabulous Delgado!Master icon. *g*)

[jjpor.livejournal.com]

When you have to say "honest", it's usually a damaging admission...

Hiya! :D Delgado's awesome expression of awesomeness fits every occasion... As does your fish! XD

[jjpor.livejournal.com]

It must be my naturally open and honest face... ;D

Since I know they were both having a slight problem of the undead sort, I expect it pretty much is what I think... although one can never be sure.

Keep at it! I'm off in the hope of actual sleep tonight.

[jjpor.livejournal.com]

Yes, probably best not to be too sure, because... XD

No, it is pretty much what you think, in that case.

Sleep well! :)

I just got back from the library, where I checked out a massive pile of books all relating to knitting in one way or another. Officially they are sources for a 6-8 page research paper (which I'm actually writing out of my head and researching afterwards) about the relative merits of wool and acrylic yarns... although I'm having some second thoughts, because poor acrylic is so disenfranchised I can't even find print sources in favor of it! o_O I'm required to use some non-print sources anyway, so hopefully there is at least one prominent knitblogger who has some kind words for acrylic yarn; that's my next bit of necessary research.

Unofficially - well, I also checked out a large volume about tablet weaving, and a small one about traditional Russian colorwork mittens, and one about unconventional sock construction. These are the knitty-writing equivalent of "research" with the quote marks built in. *g*

And now I am off to a square dance at my college. With no partner, but the flyers didn't say it was bring-your-own-boy... which is the first time except weddings that a dance I've been able to attend hasn't had that particular provision, so I am going on my own and hoping to have fun.

Probably I will also do some more writing and research (and possibly "research") tonight. Have fun, all!

I'm allergic to virtually every form of yarn other than acrylic and cotton. I LOVE acrylic. So there.

Also, acrylic is colourfast; can be dyed in virtually any shade; can hold brighter dyes than many organic yarns, especially protein yarns; is more durable than cellulose yarns; does not degrade in sunlight; does not shrink or stretch; has a measurable consistent breaking strength; violates no ethical strictures anywhere in the globe (unless you count fiber snobs in the developed world). It's also inexpensive and lightweight.

How's that for a start?
