This is a meme I like, because it doesn't take up much space.

I am happy today for a few reasons:

1) I saw Troy again last night, and lo, it sucked even less than it did the first time. I even cried a little. I sense writing in my future.

2) My new cell phone got here this morning, arriving at my desk less than 24 hours after I placed my order. Woo! I am reachable at all times once again, for the first time since my stupid T-Mobile phone began dying in December.

3) I am having a Sirius/Remus fic renaissance. And lo! Good fic has actually been written since the last time I dared to look. A fair bit of it, too. Happy.

4) I got two sentences written in my ficathon story last night! Yes, an entire dialogue exchange. It was fabulous. Tonight, maybe I'll write three sentences.

LOL!!! In that spirit, I would like to share what I've written so far on my story. Are you ready? *g*

"Jack?"

"Hmmm?"

"I have a question."

"No, you don't. There are no questions today."

That's it. *snicker*

*wild applause* Bravo! Simply brilliant! A masterpiece in the making!

But the really funny part? You know what the first three lines of my story are? Shall I share?

"Daniel?"

"Hmmm?"

"I have a plan."

Great minds think alike? Desperation draws from a common pool of inspiration??

Oh, LOL!! It's hopeless! I'm giving up now. :D

[marzilla.livejournal.com]

Just don't give up before I get to find out what Daniel's question is. *g*

Have any good Sirius/Remus links? I tend not to read too many unrecced stories in that pairing, because there's so much dreck.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I only read by recommendation myself, since bad SB/RL fic drove me right out of the fandom before.

Here are some of the ones I read today that I didn't think were too bad:

Door to the River -- Minx

Promised Eternity -- setissma

Alive -- copperbadge (it's a songfic, but if you ignore the song, there's still a pretty good fic under there)

House -- Kest

Hmm. To me you're black, not purple. *frown*

For some reason it doesn't work in all browsers. I can seen the purple in IE, but not in Mozilla. No idea why -- but then again, I have no idea how it works in the first place. But I'm purple!

Oh, that reminds me (through a convoluted thought process that it's better not to delve into too deeply) -- did I tell you that I finally got to see Good Bye Lenin! last week?

[therealjae.livejournal.com]

You did NOT tell me that! Where was it showing? And did you like it?

[marzilla.livejournal.com]

It was showing down at the Bethesda Landmark -- has been for a while, but this was the first chance I got to get down there and see it. I absolutely loved it. Fabulous, fabulous movie. I'm glad you pimped it so energetically. :-)

[therealjae.livejournal.com]

Yay! I'm so glad.

It's actually showing in a big mainstream theatre here! I was so surprised.
