So, that time's rolled around again, when I'm all weepy and oy, woe is me, the world's unfair, everybody hates me, my pants are too tight, my chins are too many, what am I here for...well, that one I know--I'm here for the porn--but in the greater scheme of things, why me? And of course, since I'm a miserable bitch, I have to make my beloved's life miserable too, until he finally throws up his hands and wants to know what the heck is wrong with me? I just know one of these days he's going to have had enough and just walk away, just leave. (here's the part where I throw myself into a corner and sob all broken hearted) Yeah, you know what's really stupid and self-involved and stupid and pathetic about that? After 30 years, if he hasn't left me (or smothered me in my sleep, i can be *such* a god-awful bitch, just ask the children) more than likely he's just gonna ride this thing out until the final chapter. BUT IT FEELS LIKE IT MIGHT HAPPEN and I'm really feeling sorry for myself.
There. Now that I've typed all that out, I feel kind of better, thank you.
In a dizzying and complete change of subject, I'm thinking about posting all my old SV all cleaned up and shiny new over at my DW place. I've always hated the way my stuff looks at SSA, and folks keep having problems with it. Who knows, maybe some day someone will be looking for SV stuff to read and find my DWj and be all excited about the SV. It was so much fun when I first came into fandom and stumbled over stuff here and there--it was like finding gold! I've already started to post some stuff there, SpN and SV, with pretty pickchus. :) Also, it lets me feel like I'm doing something fannish. I have this problem though, with reading the stuff as I'm going along. Ha! Some of it's a good read--and some of it, omg. *hides face*
In case you want to see, my user name there is Roxy. I know, right? So bold, so creative!
So! Enough rambling. Whoever made it this far--you're the shizzle! High five, friend!*HUGHUG*

7/11/10 06:29 am (UTC)I like your posting idea. But how about the AO3? Or are you there already? I really like posting and reading there.
I hope you feel more upbeat pretty soon. I can't stand hearing anyone say such bad things about you--not even you!
(no subject)
7/11/10 07:35 am (UTC)What, me worry?
I've read stories at the AO3, but don't know anything more about it. It's lovely there too, but looks beyond my shaky grasp of things technical.

7/11/10 07:45 am (UTC)And thanks, omg, for the hugs! I'm making myself feel better reading J2--it goes really well with a danish and a cup of coffee. I'm pretending that it's 3 in the afternoon instead of 3 at night... ;)

7/11/10 07:34 am (UTC)You are not just here for porn (although..thanks!) you're here to share of yourself which inspires others, gives us joy when we need it and you're none the wiser 'cos you're just being wonderful you.
Yeah, you know what's really stupid and self-involved and stupid and pathetic about that?

Thirty years? Yeah, I think he's in it for the long haul ::hugs::
You won't let it get to that point anyway. He understands, he may not get it, but he understands and that's why he stays.

7/11/10 07:41 am (UTC)And thank you, you always say the most incredibly wonderful things. Just you wait, one day there'll be a knock at your door...*eg*

7/11/10 10:56 am (UTC)i'll go look at you at DW and, if i've not already fanned you there, do so at once.

7/11/10 06:36 pm (UTC)I'm still a little grumpy, but not the kind of grumpy where we write emo notes and hide them under the placemats and contemplate the bus schedule and whether we can shove the coffeemaker into our bindle, so--win!

7/11/10 12:05 pm (UTC)You really need to try out AO3. I'll be happy to help you if you have questions. The editor is the best I've worked with for archiving and the stories can be posted all in one piece (like SSA), but can be edited if you're not happy with them. You can also include images, just like on LJ or DW.

7/11/10 01:50 pm (UTC)I'm sorry you're feeling down, but just look at all the folks around here who love the stuffing out of you! *rallies around roxy* And while you're here for the porn (and admirable pursuit), I'm just here for the, uh, camaraderie?
Also, somewhat off-topic, but did you want to "talk" before the big meet n' greet in a few weeks? (Heh. That kinda rhymed.) Lemme know, either way, and quit doubting the Mister! I think he's fully invested in the long haul, from the sound of it, and adores you dearly. Like the rest of us, snookums. :) *Huggles*

7/11/10 06:43 pm (UTC)I've been meaning to message you, but I've been kind of slogging through feeling sorry for myself, gearing up for BG moving back home, and worrying about my dad and the way I've been screwing up his stuff. Oy! But don't be scared, it sounds worse than it is. ;)

7/11/10 02:43 pm (UTC)DW = good.
I can't get the fucking admins to take my stuff down at SSA. I've now written several times in various ways. Christ. When someone asks for their shit to be taken down, take it the fuck down! Obvi, I am kind of pissed about this.
So, DW = good!
Sorry you're feeling crummy.

7/12/10 07:15 pm (UTC)Thank you love. I hate when that dark shadow that creeps up from time to time makes me forget that. God knows I'm luckier than I deserve. *HUGS*

7/11/10 04:08 pm (UTC)But Daddy, I don't want--
Then I suggest you cheer the hell up in a god damn jiff. Now, go make Daddy another highball. And do it without crying--your tears dilute the booze.
Yeah, I dunno either. :D If you feel bad for Uncle Roxy, maybe you could do something unexpectedly nice for him. Just, for the love of God, don't tell me what the nice thing is.

7/12/10 02:40 am (UTC)And I think reposting the final versions of all your stories is a great idea. But maybe, for those of us who are internet-impaired, you could post a link? And how does one join DW, anyway?
