It's not so bad...
Feb. 24th, 2006 08:50 pmHappy Birthday Shigure!
I feel like it's been a while since I updated with anything substantial. I don't even know what counts as "substantial" anymore. You be the judge.
(1) Back in pain. One of the friendly library janitors, George, gave me an Ibuprofen 800 mg, which should have knocked a featherweight like me off my feet, but I'm still in some semblance of pain, and not the least bit delirious. Curious! I hate having sciatica.
(2) Got along with Zack-- the co-worker who would previously-not-be-named. He's been irritating me off and on the past few days, but tonight it was just kind of cool, even if I did want to sock him about 3 times during the course of my time there (4 hours). We talked about cars and Star Trek on the way home. He was the one who offered to drive me in the first place, so I'm happy about that.
(3) RANMA! I randomly decided to edit "Brand New Day" and "Saisei" on Fanfiction.net, so I'm going to download those to my HD eventually and make sure that when I get the new "amc" (or whatever it might end up getting renamed) that the new versions are on there. I haven't really written Ranma in a while, but I might be tempted to get back into it, just because I love that last volume's plot line. The New Ranma 1/2 Project was a godsend back in the 90s when I was still reading Ranma desperately.
NOTE: I need to come up with a new name for my archive of all-fanfics-and-stuff-besides-SxA-because-that's-hosted-at-Dragonfayth. This means everything: Sailormoon, Full Metal Panic, Ranma, Inuyasha, Wild Act, Peach Girl, other Yu-Gi-Oh stuff that isn't SxA, and likely Star Ocean, Final Fantasy, etc. as well, because Blacklight Arcade existing as a separate site seems pointless to me.
So I need a name. Help?
I'll get started on "Saving Akane" edits next, but I don't know when I'll actually update the stories themselves. In the meantime, I've been reading this pretty good fic by Neon-Ronin, called "The Truth and the Tempest." It uses some "ooh! big words" at first, and has the occasional spelling error, but generally it's got a very good plot, with one OC so far who surprisingly IS NOT a Gary-Stu! I'm very impressed-- and here I thought the Ranma fandom might be near-to-dying! Better yet, the fic has 35 or so chapters, each of them of a decent length, so I've actually got a good read ahead of me.
Now the question is, whatever happened to Krista Perry and "Hearts of Ice"? Now that was a damn good story.
(4) I went to the doctor's today at around 2pm, and it was an extremely quick appointment. I had to get a PDC or something-- a test for tuberculosis. I have to check back on Tuesday (I should on Monday, except I have classes almost back to back, and I'll likely have my interview for Tokiwa on that same day). I turned in the health certificate today, even though I didn't have the chest x-ray section completed, but Kaiser won't due a chest x-ray unless the shot test comes out positive. -_-; Stupid Tokiwa.
(5) The Shonen Jump Sub Club is pissing me off. I didn't pay $29.95 for the login screen to tell me my name and password are incorrect, and then let me login on the OTHER page that you can only get when you get an error from the OTHER login screen. On top of that, they never update the site for the newest issue when it ships out to subscribers (like they should), so even for all the extras us subbers supposedly get, we don't see them until the site updates for the people that buy it off the newsstand (in 2 weeks). Same goes for non-sub stuff too, like contests and surveys. How irritating!

If you make up titles for stories I didn't write, I will respond with details of those non-written stories. You can include specifics like fandom or pairing. (of course, it would be wise to suggest fandoms and characters that I actually KNOW...)
I can't think of anything else. :P
