[personal profile] lullabymoon was kind enough to take Hour 39 so I could blink myself awake with more caffeine. Ah, writing. A rapid path to substance abuse... who needs food and sleep when you can have coffee, tea, or chocolate? Or they say absinthe makes the heart grow fonder, and possibly the pen move more swiftly.

So what are you fueling your creativity with this hour? Grilled penguin? Sous vide glowstick? Another pot of the old black magic?

My fuel is a trail mix of raisins, peanuts and M&Ms.

So far it isn't working. :-(

That actually never once occurred to me. :-D

Thank you!

Noooo! Don't reverse the polarity on the M&Ms! If you do and there are any green M&Ms in the mix, your slash parings will all go het!

Try reversing the polarity on the raisins. Much safer.

Whew, thank goodness I saw this in time!

Although there are no green M&Ms in my mix, I still feel there was DANGER AHEAD.

Well, as long as there are no green M&Ms, the risk might be justified. The results ought to be, if nothing else, lively.

I'm awake and I've had both espresso AND a shower.

I totally failed at writing last night, and ended up doing lots of uninspired but necessary housekeeping on LOLMac. You'd think staring at all those screencaps would suffice as inspiration, but noooo. I should've tried working on the dark!laundry!fic. (Which is now going to need a David Collings cameo, it seems.)

I think I have a few extra in THIS BOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*slams box closed* Yup.

I think all you have to do is turn on the caps lock, and the supply renews.

In other news: absinthe doesn't make my writing any faster, but it does make it appear amazingly clever (until the stuff wears off). It also causes typos.

I must now go AFK and help with the Running of the Errands, probably followed by the Hunting of the Lunch. So much to do!

We should have a dark!laundry fic writing competition next 'rush.

Which is now going to need a David Collings cameo, it seems

And I had thought you were only teasing me. :lol: (If it's dark!laundry!fic, is he going to do a Poul?)

Not sure what you mean by a 'Poul'. Do please enlarge.

Sorry, I forget not everybody is quite as obsessed with DW as I am!! I just will always think of him as Poul first - from the Four and Leela story Robots of Death, where he completely breaks down. It depends how dark the dark!laundryfic is, I suppose.

(I love Robots of Death way too much; it is one of my 2 favourite DW episodes. It was the main reason for me seeking out B7.)

robophobia!

Oh, Robots of Death is a lovely episode!! I had forgotten that his character is named Poul.

I am going to run away for a bit, see if being offline can help me focus.

Also, tea.

I've just re-joined the land of the living. Sort of. I need coffee, stat.

I plan to really push and finish my story today. Deadlines are hovering over my head, although I did get an extension.

Telly distracted me, but I solved the problem by shutting it down and hiding the remote, hah-haa! Take that, distraction!
