HAPPY BIRTHDAY calemiri!!!

Seriously, how can it be a year since shirtless!Paul greeted your natal day? Wasn't that only a few months ago?

Anyway, let's take a moment to ponder this message.



Well, crikey. I'm intimidated (and distracted, mmmmm...)

I've seen some fabulous birthday pics in my time, but that? Wins hands down.

*drool*

My God, that's pretty.

I'm sure Alex has his own ideas on enforcement too. *g* Given the fic related oh gods say it isn't so... dreams from last night I'd say he's getting his licks in early.

And since I am a world class procrastinator, I can hardly cast aspersions about last minute posts, can I? Won't stop me saying these things, if I can figure out a way to do so without biting the tongue planted in my cheek, of course.

Thank you very much for remembering, and reminding me why I keep writing. Or at least thinking about writing. Hmmm... Does meta count?

Meta always counts! Not sure what for, but it counts! *g* And fic related dreams are certainly a present of a sort - just not necessarily a nice present (depending on the situation and dream).

Heee, I posted as soon as I got home, I just should have posted in the morning before I went out :)

And I didn't even have to photoshop the eyeliner on ;)

Here's the original.

Currently my meta to fic ratio is running at about 80 to 1. I can discuss theories, but writing fic is like pulling teeth. So, meta had better count or my status as a vaguely useful member of fandom is in serious trouble.

As for the dream? A surreal combination of Alice in Wonderland (complete with falling through holes and potions demanding they be drunk), Harry Potter (Dumbledore as the Queen of Hearts... WTF?) and... NIDA? I guess. Snape was attempting to get out of running a senior class in video editing (or a group film project) at any rate. Pray to all you hold dear that they don't make me write it up, because it was brainbreakingly bizarre.

Ah, so not so much procrastination as delayed gratification.

I was sent to prison in my dream last night, and the nice warden was Angie from school(!?! haven't seen her in years) and some of the other prisoners were people from Challenge. And I couldn't remember what it was that I'd done.

I tend to get schoolish rather than prisonish dreamscapes, so random figures from school make far more sense. Except when they really really don't.

You'd been outed as a fan which is against some school rule? *g* Hey, everything was against some school rule at some point in time. Or possibly you and your posse from Challenge had done something so heinous I'm guessing that 'dissing the band' would probably rate above murder, but feel free to insert your own absurd but heinous crime here your brain was trying to hide the terrible truth from you with amnesia.

I console myself with the theory that the point of dreams is to make me think. So if it doesn't have a point, it stops me forgetting about it and forcing my subconscious to pull out the heavy duty jackboots of total obviousness. Like 'What You Waiting For' on permanent loop because I'm procrastinating... that was not fun after the first couple of hours.
