omg, I'm just completely fucking exhausted. Did you know that when you're my age, it makes you really tired to move furniture and stuff? Even little stuff like books and dishes and bathroom stuff. 'Cause I let those guys do the heavy lifting. We only had one other person help, and that was the incredibly handsome young man who is a friend of BG's. My stars, sooo gorgeous. She insists he's gay, but I didn't think so. Mind you, I have no gaydar and it perplexes me as I seem to be the only one in the whole country without it. I have to admit, he did give her one of the oddest hugs I've ever seen any man give a woman when he left us. She was kind of sweaty, though....

She's moved to Trenton, and when she tells people this, they all get the same look of abject horror, as if she was moving to Camden (this is only funny if you're from NJ). She was complaining that folks were asking if she was crazy, moving into the hood. The young man said, "Tchah! You're not moving into the hood--the hood's four blocks from here."

Well. That's a relief.

Anyway, I'm hurting and alone. It's so sad. I feel like I lost something. On one hand, I'm sososo sad she's moved out, on the other hand, I'm afraid she's going to move back home after the year, and we'll have to do it again...that was my parting advice to her. Head's up, be careful, and don't move back home.

My niece is moving this month too, from one apartment to another. That's going to be even rougher, in terms of working our asses off. I'm praying she's going to get a friend to help us move--I'm hoping like hell it's not some place on the fifth floor up narrow stairs...pray with me people!

In fannish news...*G* Clark is being remarkably cooperative. That's a blessing. You know, I meant this East of story to be it. That's kind of why I was/am writing those endings to other fic. I started this story with the idea in mind that I was done but...maybe not so much. ;)

Oh, bay-bee.
*hugs you hard*

I can't imagine the Monstrous moving out. I just...

Waaaaaaaaah!!
*hugs more*

omg--it is the worst thing ever! *hugs you hard* I'm going to be waiting for her to come home for months! I'm going to miss the nightly sounds of Scrubs on the TV, the high pitched screams of "whos' a good little dog, then," and "what's for dinner, mom--this is *dinner?* Oh God..."

*hugs* for missing the baby.

*frowns* for thinking you're done - all you have to do is ask me and I'll try to inspire you. :-P Or you could write McShep. *giggle*

omgosh, don't make me throw you over my knee, little missy!!
Besides, you have to be all reasearchy and know stuff and it has to make real sense. Unlike SV, where you can wing it like a muh-fuh.

[personal profile] danceswithgary 2008-06-30 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
Make sense? Are we talking about the same fandom that wrote McShep as icecubes and penguins and has even more genderfuck and mpreg than SV?

I can't tell you how much crack!fic I've opened...and then closed at lightspeed. When it's good, it's very, very good, but when it's bad it's mindboggling gouge-your-eyes-out-with-a-spork horrid. *grin*

at this age, everything makes me tired! i salute you for working so hard today.

when i go to move out of this big house, i think i'll hire a football team.

you thought you were done with the clex, do you mean?

[identity profile] roxymissrose.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
Man, when we move out of here, I'm hiring big strong men to do it. I wonder if I can request they be hot?

Not the Clex, buty all of SV. I've been thinking 'omg, that's it I'm done' for a long time, but every time some other idea grabs me and won't let go. I figured mostly it was all just a way to get out of finishing Transference. *G*

[identity profile] myownghost.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
hot = good!

i've been feeling alienated (hardy har) from SV for some time. if a friend posts a story, i'll read it, but it's like the thrill is mostly gone, show-wise. without lex? i dunno. :/

[identity profile] roxymissrose.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
The thrill is definitely gone for me show-wise. They left the show in a lousy place, Lex is gone, apparently to be replaced with a female-maybe-minion so that Clark can finally have sex with the Villain of The Story--bah! Hell, I read SV for long time without seeing the show or (for the first month I read it) without even aving any damn idea what they looked like, so I can go on reading it. I haven't lost my interest in reading SV at all--if it's well written, I'll read it. But yes, the bloom is off the rose for us Clex folks, I think.

[identity profile] dm-wyatt.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
I can't imagine not writing, maybe someday I won't write Clex anymore, but to stop altogether?

*gasp*

the horror!

*HUGS*

Maybe you'll find inspiration somewhere....

And I'm sorry you got so worn out by helping her move out. Lately, it seems like sitting up and writing lately wears me out, forget moving stuff or doing cleaning or gardening, so I'm not sure I'm in any better shape...

It'll get better, I'm sure.

I'm thinking safe thoughts for her in Trenton, but it is better than Camden (Okay, I was born in Jersey although I haven't lived there since I was a baby, so I knew what you meant...)

*HUGS*

I'm about to post a very dark song-fic Clex, or maybe by tomorrow, if that'll help you perk up your Clexian muses...

I'm also almost done with a PWP Superman/Batman too...

Clark chained naked to the floor figures prominently to that plot (if you can call it a plot, that is) when Bruce comes to the rescue, so maybe if you can't write your own stuff, I hope you still will read mine.

*HUGS*

I'd miss you awfully if you stopped hanging around LJ.

I tell you, when you feel inside the same as you did when you where 20, it's a shock when your body tells you hell no.

I'm thinking safe thoughts for her in Trenton, but it is better than Camden
LOL! right? The area she's in is really not too bad...*nibbles nails*

Hey, even if I never wrote Clex again, I'd still read it! I can't imagine not wanting to read it. There will always be love for those guys, always. I like Clark/Bruce too, just...not as much as I do Clark/Lex. The thing is, most folks are moving away from the sunny, happy days of Denial, and I'm not too crazy about them hurting each other. I need a lot of cushioning mentally to deal with that. I've enjoyed stories with a bad Lex, but I prefer schmoop.
And I doubt that I'd ever leave LJ all together--I'm too much of a buttinsky for that. I might change my name and come back though...*EVILGRIN*

[identity profile] dm-wyatt.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I can see how the Clex can get so dark. Lex in canon doesn't really have good thoughts for Clark, especially now.

I mean, heck... the guy just tried to kill Clark at the end of last season. How can schmoop arise from that? You have to ignore canon if you love the Clex.

I do love the boys, although it's hard to see schmoop really happening for them anymore.

*shrugs*

Not sure why I go through these really dark phases, but I also have my schmoopy phases too.

Superman for Sale isn't exactly dark and I've also got a new schmoopy Clex I've been working on too. That will is almost crack-tastic: Lois outing Superman, with Lex taking advantage of Clark's sexual confusion to make his case for love. It should be fun.

I'm glad you will still be around, even if you stop writing the boys.

*HUGS*

I would miss you horribly if you were to leave...

It's so sad. But then again, I write tons of stuff about a character who never even made it past the first season and have no problem with that. ;)

I don't mind dark, sometimes I love it and sometimes I'm kind of horrified. I guess I can handle Clark being a dick better than I can handled Lex being a dick. Superman for Sale is delicious! I love reluctant attraction between the two, and I *love* future stories in which they fix the rift.

Hey! you guys keep writing, and I'm not going anywhere!

[identity profile] rosy5000.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 12:27 am (UTC)(link)
See... that's part of the reason my mom keeps me locked in my room and won't let me move out. Ok... so, I just kinda refuse to go and my mom won't let me anyways. Besides... why move out and have all those other expenses when I can stay at home. hehehe

I started this story with the idea in mind that I was done

*eyes pop out of head* WHAAAATTT!?!?!?!? But... you can't quit!!! I'll throw a huge horrible temper tantrum to rival any 2 year old if you ever try! *snugglesHuggles*

[identity profile] roxymissrose.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
Your mom is right!! And that's what I was trying to tell the girl!! Stay home, save money. but Mr. Roxy wouldn't let me give her the the extra room upstairs so she could be more comfortable...he seemed to think I was being crazy....

Oy! No tantrums! Still writing!!

[identity profile] rosy5000.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
lol Well... my dad feels the same way about me leaving too, soo... My parents even joke around that if I ever get married, my husband better plan on moving in here too. Which won't happen though... just not enough room.

K... I'll hold off on the tantrums for now. hehe :D

*smooches*

Oh so much sympathy on the moving thing. I hate moving with a passion. It's always miserable. >.> Good luck on her not coming home again. I managed it but my brother didn't.

Lots of prayers on the next round of moving too. *bows head*

Stop...writing? *wibbles at you* You can't stop writing the boys! To heck with the series--write what you want and make your own continuity! After all, that's exactly what the writers of the show are doing. *mutters darkly and glares at them* You can't stop writing Clex. *Makes spectacular puppy eyes at you*

[identity profile] roxymissrose.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
Well, Clex keeps chasing me, so I don't know...if I finish this story, there is one that's on the wings. :)

Yay! I love reading your stuff so I hope you keep having a story waiting in the wings. ^O^ Though if you chose to write other things, I'll read that too. *hugs you*

I don't have the stamina to move stuff either. Next time, don't move anything, just provide the beer for later, when they're finished.

Hah! I remember my late mother meeting one of my gay gay gay friends in college. He was a male model, too. Seriously. When my mother met him, her eyes lit up with such happiness. I had to whisper in her ear later, "He's gay, Mother," and she covered her ears with her hands and said, "No, no, no." When, I told him later, he had a laughing fit. He was so nice, and charming, helpful, loyal, and kind. He was nearly perfect. Now, think, how many 19 year old men or men in their early twenties are like that in college? Especially really gorgeous ones?

I have such gaydar, I knew many of my gay friends in college were gay before they did. It's a blessing and a curse.

wow, that really descibes the gorgeous kid who helped her move! lol!

You know, every time those girls move, it's me, him and whatever child we're moving. These girls have the suckiest friends in the world.

[identity profile] kaydee23.livejournal.com 2008-06-30 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
I haven't moved in 13 years, but I remember when I used to move, my gay guy friends were the only ones who ever helped. Nevermind that I helped seemingly hundreds of my friends move all the time. It was always interesting how they had life or death plans that prevented them from helping me. I'm over it...no, I'm not. Still, whenever anyone asks me, to this very day, I help them move, their children move, and their grandchildren move. I'm a big damn sucker.

Head's up, be careful, and don't move back home. LOL; that's one good and honest advice. :-)

Hope you can relax and will feel better soon. Moving is so stressfull. But I'm sure she'll manage fine. Afterall, she has you to ask for advice if things get tough.
