so my only new years resolution is fandom related: stop being so damn shy about friending people i like. i friend mainly by reading their fic, but i'm easily awed into thinking this person is amazing, way too cool for me. while i know writing is only a bit of the importance of flist, the thing is if you're posting a pot smoking incest, or a kinky weasley related pwp, i know we're on the same page.

so half the time i read something and i want to friend because i want to know more about them, but i'm totally shy. sometimes i get all creepy and stalk their journal without commenting (for an example, i've had martha's_library friended for like 6 months, and every now and then i go and look at her personal journal, but i'm too in awe of her writing to suggest i'm good enough to friend her).

so, tonight i'm going to friend at least twenty people, and hope to gain new friends in the new year. *puts on resolve!face*

*hugs* *hugs again*

You should friend them, whenever I've been to conventions people are always like "Yeah, you should just friend me, no need to ask!" ...0.o it still blows my mind. I feel like I'm taking a piece of their soul or something. But you're not, because they want to know they're appreciated, and because you're fucking awesome so just do it! ^_^

*hugs back*

lol, i was just coming back to write an eta: of fuck it, i can't do this. every person i'm friending just makes me cringe, because WHO AM I TO PRESUME.

i looooooooove you. *hugs like five billion times*

Presume ALL OVER THE PLACE! what's the worst that can happen? They don't friend back? So what? you can delete them then and eh!

OMG I realised earlier, as of December I've been a HP fanatic, well FANATIC for NINE fucking years, nine years since I read the first year. As of April 2010, it'll be the anniversary of my first fanfiction.net account, nine years ago. Jesus. I'm so old =D and I've still barely posted any fanfic.

Right! 2010! Write more, post more, drink less (ha, shouldn't be difficult, but it is causing me to be all hyper and giddy right now) bug Gala more about how FUCKING AWESOME SHE IS, because you really get so amazingly creative with your poly fics. You've had me reading pairings I wouldn't have normally bothered fluttering an eyelid over and then MAKING ME WANT MOAAARRR!

AND YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE?! FUCK ANYONE WHO TELLS YOU YOU'RE WRONG FOR WANTING TO FRIEND THEM!

If people don't give you a chance, fuck to them, and if you don't give them a chance, you'll never know what could be!

YOU'RE KIND OF DRUNK. I LOVE YOU. I WANT TO GET FUCKING SMASHED WITH YOU. CON CON CON CON CON TIME!

I'm not even that drunk! I haven't really been drinking, well a little and I haven't drunk in months and months so it's hit me harder than it should, but mostly I'm just weirdly happy and hyper and FREAKING OUT all at the same time, but then I'm always fucking freaking out over something, but I'm getting better at controlling it, okay, hyper, yes, a little hyper. But it's all going to be okay!

God con! OMG I need to send away for my new passport! mine runs out of validation in March, but you need to have a passport valid for six months before you can travel to the US now *headdesk* first hurdle! I'm still not sure how I'm going to make con work, but I know I want it to!

My dad keeps freaking out about the fact I'm not doing my master's degree next year, he's even offered to pay for it he wants me to be doing that so badly, but I told him I want a year out to work in the real world, which could be the biggest mistake ever, but at least if I spend a year doing that I can go back to the safe world of academia a few months later rather than spending another year at university to get another degree and then going into the "real world" and finding I suck at it.

OMG I'm so RANTY TODAY! AND AGAIN HYPER! AND AND AND!!! ohh pretty butterflies...

i was so hoping you were still planning on it. i was just talking to nuclearsugars the other day about getting a hotel/who's credit card we're using, and i was like 'plz god, let my british girl still want to' but i didn't want to ask because i didn't want to be all PRESSURE PRESSURE PRESSURE.

your dad can step off, because you need to be free to be you! *hearts you*

i'm still in I AM TAKING THOSE TWO DAYS OFF, AND QUITTING IF YOU'RE NOT COOL WITH THAT mode, except i haven't done the confrontation part yet. probably closer to july would be a better idea. it's only two days, so really, it's probably better to give me the two days off and have me come back than start looking for new staff. there's usually staffing problems. *is not ready for that conversation yet* *puts off by ignoring it*

seriously though, if we both make it to the con okay, you have to remind me that i can talk to anyone, even if they're kaalee or schocolate or mad_martha, because WE'RE ALL PEOPLE and damnit i am talking to everyone at a con, even if i am too scared to friend them on lj. you have to be all eighth grade I DOUBLE DOG DARE YOU TO TALK TO THAT PERSON *points* and i will because i believe in peer pressure.

(dear lord this comment is long)

And in the meantime, don't forget about us old fandom friends! I'm really glad we found each other. We really have to do something Ron Weasley Abusive!

Happy New Year! ^__^

if you have a gmail account, we can start a collab doc? i still haven't re-downloaded any message systems, but i have recently fallen in love with google.docs.

happy new year!

Heh... I'm not too good at writing stories anymore. RPing, yes, but I haven't written a story in a good long while. I was thinking more along the lines of being the abuse artist. Your Abuse-Muse!

But I, too, adore Google documents and do have a google account (Harpsiccord). Just about everything Google does is magical.

*pokes* draw something! i'll write it, if you draw it.

*waves furiously* Hi there!

HI! i have sort of spam-commented your journal, sorry about that :) *isn't actually sorry, but wants to be polite*
