Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween and happy Samhain! It's the last day of my favorite month and the day before my least favorite month begins, so I'm trying to make good use of it (i.e., catching up with online things).

* Today marks the third year in which I have failed to write my Merlin-can-get-pregnant-only-on-Samhain-and-Arthur-finds-this-verrrrrry-interesting story and the sixth year in which I have failed to write my Duran-filming-the-Nightboat-video-OMGZOMBIES story.

* Today is the day before my mom moves into her new place! Yay! Now I have to somehow find airfare I can afford to go out and help her get all her stuff out of storage and unpacked (preferably avoiding the weekend of Survivor Series, including Thanksgivinghahaha, and not using more than a week of vacation time).

* Today is also the last day I can put off writing because tomorrow starts NaNoWriMo. I kind of wanted to do something original this year, but nothing is quite gelled enough yet. But I am going to push myself to do the 1,667 or so words a day and catch up with some of the fic I've been letting slide. Who else is doing it this year?

* So I hear that at the Atlantic City concert this weekend, the boys came out in Halloween masks. Nick, of course, was a unicorn. And Simon was a bull -- and as confirmed on Twitter, John was a cow. So nice of them to dress to match in this as in everything else. *headdesk*

DUDE. MERLIN GETTING PREGGERS ON SAMHAIN? YES. WRITE IT PLEASE. Suddenly I want ALL the mpreg.

Happy Halloween bb!

WHY IS THERE NOT MORE MPREG IN THIS FANDOM, I ASK YOU?

...perhaps it's just too obvious?

Samhain preg is on the list!

God please tell me you have a rec? I'm suddenly gagging to see Merlin pregnant.

Hmm, I thought I had at least a couple stories bookmarked, but I must not have tagged them correctly. Will keep looking!

Nick, of course, was a unicorn. And Simon was a bull -- and as confirmed on Twitter, John was a cow.

O.O

That is so great. It's like a trick *and* a treat!

Happy Hallowe'en and Samhain! I am generally quite ambivalent about the autumnal months, but I hope that you have a good last day of your favourite one!

I am doing NaNo this year, again really hoping to succeed but also sadly acknowledging the fact that I am useless and lazy and will probably fail in about ten days. But right now I am excited with plans to write about space pirates :D I hope the fic writing goes well!

I love the autumnal months, except for the fact that winter is almost here, too. I enjoyed them more when I lived in the desert!

YOU ARE NEITHER USELESS NOR LAZY. Sheesh, like I'm going to believe that! Space pirates sound like a ton of fun -- I hope that goes really well!

LOL! I love your Merlin story idea!

Happy Halloween and good luck on the NaNo!

Thanks! :-):-)

NaNo!! :D :D

Only three hours to go. Gotta get some sleep methinks. Good luck. :)

Just half an hour to go here now, so I should probably get some rest, too. We'll all need it soon!

Good luck to you, too!

OMG, I would read this story no question. :D

Happy Halloween!

Woo hoo! Well, now that I know there's an audience for my little bit of perversion, I think I might have to write it!

Happy Halloween to you, too!

Hey, I'm glad to hear your mom got a place. :)

And I am doing NaNo, too. Good luck!

Thanks! I hope you're holding up okay in the snowy north.

Good luck to you, too! Hopefully we'll all make it through this year. *g*

Apparently Roger had the common sense of a goat and stayed well clear of all their insanity? :)

Oh! And I'm also doing nano. :)

I haven't heard about Roger, but suspect he wore a drum kit as his costume, like usual. *g*

Good luck with NaNo!
