playing catch up
*collapses in puddle*
So, I have not been around in a while! Hi! But I have good reasons:
1) Got A Massage Job!
Just started this week, and I'm still working part-time at the old job because my stamina is way down from where it was when I graduated, so I'm giving my poor hands (and abs and quads) time to readjust rather than injuring myself by jumping in full time. I like it so far - it's a commercial massage place, so there's simply not time to be personal and detailed like you can with private work, and I always sucked at the time limits (50 minutes is BARELY enough time to get shit done, for reals, 90 minute sessions are vastly superior), but my coworkers are all very nice so far and Austin-y, so there's plenty of full-sleeve tattoos and spiked hair and such under the uniforms.
2) Started Watching Teen Wolf
I hate you all. Yes, you know who you are. *glares* I finished S1, then stopped so that Lindsey could catch up and we're going to start S2 tomorrow...just in time for the finale. *sigh* But, hey, hiatus fic! I'm in love with Stiles (and Dylan O'Brien, holy shit that kid's face is magical), and have Thoughts About Derek that don't really align with fanon but I'm gonna hold off posting about them until I catch up because I could be wrong. Allison is adorable, Scott is a potato, and I'm less fond of Lydia and Jackson than most of fandom, but still pretty darn fond.
3) Computer Broke
Blue screen of death, couldn't boot into Windows, thankfully managed to boot with a Linux CD and recover everything but had to reinstall Windows. *sigh* I still don't know what happened, but my computer's just past age 3, so it's time to start paranoid backing up shenanigans, apparently. Yay.
3) ALL the Plot Bunnies
In the last couple weeks, I have outlined a multi-part Clint-joins-SHIELD fic (yes, another one, shut up) and wrote most of the first and third parts of that, figured out how to revamp my Natasha-meets-Clint-via-timeloop-shenanigans plot after it got jossed by the movie, and got bitten by a rabid Avengers/Teen Wolf plot bunny because apparently my reaction to low levels of common sense in a canon now is "needs more Coulson". None of which helps me with the ten-odd *other* WIPs on my desktop, but.... Eventually I'll finish something again.
