So, I got trained for job number 8463 tonight at work. I am now certified and mostly trained to go up to the floors and do Birth Certificate paperwork - going through the charts and interviewing the parents for any other information. I consider this an interesting new assignment for Friday nights.

Supposedly starting at noon tomorrow we're going to be hit with Snowpocalypse: The Sequel, possibly adding another 12-20 inches to our already substantial compilation. That'll be fun. I hope I hope I hope school is closed again on Wednesday. It would suck otherwise.

I'm almost done a new GH fic and I am fighting hard to keep from writing Cousland/Zevran fic. I have resisted thus far. At least consciously - I'm fairly certain I had a dream last night that involved Zevran being blamed for taking the Great Agra Treasure of Sherlock Holmes 'Sign of Four' so my subconscious may need some more convincing. *shakes head*

Well wishes to Bradford Anderson, as well, who had surgery today for the Achilles tendon he tore during the SoapCruise thingy. D: Poor guy. Though I am curious as to how it will be explained on the show.

1. Put your music player (iTunes, Windows Media Player, etc etc etc) on shuffle.
2. For the first fifty (or twenty) songs that come up- and no cheating!- post the first line of the song.
3. If the title of the song comes up in the line, you have two options: you may replace the title with (song title here) or, if that would make it too obvious, you may skip the song. This is the only time you should skip a song! Skipping embarrassing 90s pop songs takes the fun out of it, guys.
4. Let your friends guess the songs.

So, after still hearing nothing from Frostburg with regards to my application, I called. Again. I called last week as well - they said everything was accounted for and that I'd hear something within the next few weeks. However, when I called today, I was told that they'd never received my transcripts (which I requested way back on Dec 16th) from CCBC. Which means they can't do anything with my application until they get them. WHAT THE FUCK? They had them last week, supposedly. Or else whatever fucking idiot answered the phone (and trust me, I've had conversations with several fucking idiots who work with Admissions) thought the printed copy I brought along when I applied was like... official. Yeah. Cause those look so much alike. So, I spent 30 minutes looking for the phone number for Records & Registration for my school, finally got through. They said that they would resend my transcripts, but the paper I turned in back in December was apparently nowhere to be found. Gah. Why, why, can't anything I do go smoothly? It's not like I have a back-up plan here. It's Frostburg or I'm in trouble.

Also, damn it. Every other school/college in the area (quite possibly the state) was at least 2 hours late. Except ours. Why? Apparently, our Dean is from like Michigan or something and what we got last night (4-6'' or so) earned a response of '...what snow?'

So, I had time to kill before work one day and went down to see what Zach was playing. He was playing Dragon Age: Origins, at which point he was like 'Oh, hey, I have to show you the gay sex thing.' '...What?'

Apparently, in the game, you can seduce (though there is argument over who is doing the seducing) the elf, Zevran, that you apparently refuse to kill. He joins your party and at some point, this can occur:



And, from further research (and I might just have to watch my brother actually play this game through) your character can also end up pretty much engaged to Zevran.

Title: Worth The Wait
Chapters: Part 1: Chapter 2/2 – Only Option
Author: [info]csi_sanders1129
Genre: AU. Drama. Romance.
Ratings: T
Word Count: ~3,300
Pairings/Characters: Jason/Spinelli.
Synopsis: Spinelli’s parent’s show up in the middle of the night and some of Damian’s secrets are inadvertently exposed, leaving Jason in a difficult situation.
Comments: AU in that I entirely distort the timeline of events as it is known to have occurred. Not so much actual events, but moreso the details of people involved in them. Which reminds me. I suppose I have to warn for mentions of underage involvement. Nothing graphic or messy, I promise. Partially co written with [info]cynical_sweater and with lots and lots of aid courtesy of [info]suerum. OC’s are mine, recognizable characters are not. Reviews are loved. Enjoy!

The first TEN people to comment in this post get to request that I write a drabble of any pairing/character of their choosing. In return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability level. (If you absolutely can't write, maybe find a creative alternative?) (Only if you want to and haven't already.)

Thoughts From Me: Please write the pairing/fandom, and a prompt if you feel like leaving one. I will do it all, if I know the fandom (if I don't I will give it a shot but don't expect it to be perfect or anything.)

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!!!!

Awesome!Prof emailed me to tell me he's teaching one of the other classes I needed (I bugged him about it during the semester) and I'd been keeping an eye on it, just in case, anyway. And, yesssss! He's teaching it.

So, my schedule is now:

M:
8:00-8:55 HIST 101 (Western Civ I)
9:05-10:00 HIST 193 (History of MD, w/Awesome!Prof)
10:10-11:05 NOTHING -_-
11:15-12:10 HLTH 125 (Holistic Health)

W:
8:00-8:55 HIST 101 (Western Civ I)
9:05-10:00 HIST 193 (History of MD, w/Awesome!Prof)
10:10-11:05 NOTHING -_-
11:15-12:10 HLTH 125 (Holistic Health)
---
5:45-8:40 HIST 102 (Western Civ II, w/Awesome!Prof)

F:
8:00-8:55 HIST 101 (Western Civ I)
9:05-10:00 HIST 193 (History of MD, w/Awesome!Prof)
10:10-11:05 NOTHING -_-

And then sometime in March I start some stupid 1 credit computer class so I can have 12 credits and stay on my parents insurance.

This also means I get to return one of the massively expensive History books, because Awesome!Prof doesn't use them. My wallet appreciates this. Of course, I still have to buy Zach's English book, so chances are that it'll basically just cancel out. -_- It also means, starting next week, I can only work 2 days a week (because I'm not working til 1 and getting up at 6:30) but I'm pretty much okay with that, too.

So, I'm still waiting on word from Frostburg *bites nails* I just want to know. And I'm getting tired of Dad making fun of me for asking after the mail's arrival on a daily basis. I'm glad he finds it funny.

Saw Sherlock Holmes (again) on Sunday night with [info]kismekilmeluvme and [info]bigshineeshinki after we all hung out. Watched Silent Hill for the first time ever, too. Interesting flick that was.

Saw The Lovely Bones today with Mom while Dad & Zach saw The Book of Eli. Personally, I think they got the better movie. I should probably read the book, though, before I form a real opinion. As if it is not falling further and further back in my list of books read (of which 3 more will be added tomorrow). Might also go and see Legion on Friday. Cannot wait (even if it means getting teased by Dad about liking Paul Bettany (he does not understand my actor-loyalty)).

This is my last week of vacation before it's back to classes. Gonna be a shock to the system being up at 7 on MWF's. O.o On the other hand, Zombieland comes out next Tuesday... *grins*

2. Book #1 -- first sentence
3. Book #2 -- last sentence on page fifty
4. Book #3 -- second sentence on page one hundred
5. Book #4 -- next to the last sentence on page one hundred fifty
6. Book #5 -- final sentence of the book
7. Make the five sentences into a paragraph:




Book 1: Inkheart // Cornelia Funke
Book 2: Psych: The Call of the Mild // William Rabkin
Book 3: Tongue-Tied // Richard Stevenson (There's only one sentence on page 100)
Book 4: The Complete Sherlock Holmes Vol 1 // Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Book 5: Telling Lies // Paul Ekman

Rain fell that night, a fine, whispering rain. "I'll try to get him to your office tomorrow morning." Almost as if by plan, we quickly changed the subject back to Charm, Pheromone, and Edward and discussed how we would carry out a visit to them at Charm's father's house up the road. "...It is too much to be balked by so petty an obstacle, when all else had been overcome..." We have a choice, that is our nature.

3. Leave the guys who don't do anything for you alone.
4. Put a question mark after the guys you've never heard of.
5. Strike the guys you wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole.

First of all, I bid a warm welcome to all the new friends courtesy of the Sherlock Holmes friending meme. Glad to have you. :3

Second of all, blargh. Had to go buy books for next semester. Man, that is a depressing time of break. In both spirit and on my wallet. Yeouch. Did do it early enough to get most stuff used. Still have to hunt down my bro's English book, they hadn't gotten it in yet.

Plus, now I have him playing Saw for me since I suck at videogames - especially actiony/fighty/yourlifedependsonrunningawaynow games. Which is most of what Saw is. I do the lockpick challanges. That's about it. :3 It's a good arrangement. And being the goofy Leigh/James obsessed fangirl that I am, I solved one challenge because they used Adam's last name. :3 If those boys hadn't written the game, I wouldn't have touched it.

And also: Woo! Leverage is back tonight!
