If you love Remixing, you can participating in Remix Madness regardless of whether you participated in the regular Remix Challenge this year. No qualifying fandoms, just madness for all! Put your stories up for grabs to be remixed, and then (if you like), remix something by someone else by the end of the weekend. MADNESS!

I saw Frankenstein again on Wednesday. This will surprise no one, but I am a nerd. On the train on the way to the theater to see the play, I was listening to the score from the play while reading a copy of the play. I also had a copy of Mary Shelly's novel in my bag, in case I wanted to consult it. One of my favorite parts this time was hearing/seeing reactions of people around me. One girl behind me gasped, whispered curse words, and made whimpering noises in various parts. It was awesome.

Also, real life obligations are becoming such that I am considering taking a fandom hiatus in May. I have so many tabs open now of things I want to read that I'm feeling the cosmic weight of fic unread. If I stop tuning into fandom altogether, I may perhaps feel less guilty? I still have a few days to consider. *think think think*

So what have you been up to? Proudly nerd-ing? Knocking out fandom challenges left and right? Writing awesome stuff? Reading awesome stuff? Do tell.

Dudes, it's been waaaaaaaaay to freaking long since I've dated anyone, let alone a Someone who made me dinner and then danced with me in the kitchen to big band music. This is of the good.


Now, to offset the sweetness of that, I bring you WTF: I'm all for safer sex, but this cartoon is a mite disturbing.

1.) Still haven't seen last night's Heroes, but my f-list has been remarkably good about cutting spoilers. Thanks guys!

2.) Did some shopping today for a secret santa thing I'm part of, and it's going to be awesome. Man do I love giving people presents.

SPEAKING OF PRESENTS!


3) hope_in_sight, a fandom auction, is going on right now. There are several important things you should know.


a) Proceeds are going to an important surgery for megmatthews20. This is a good cause, yo.


b) I am selling myself (like I do). You can bid for a Heroes fic or a Star Trek Mirror!verse Fic.


c) There are lots of other awesome things on offer, like podfic, cookies, and fic by awesome groovy neato people. Plus lots of other stuff, which you should check out.


d) And in the feeding frenzy of early bidding wars last night, I wanted some instant gratification, and so bought myself a tarot reading from speccygeekgrrl. She did an awesome job. The interpretation was detailed and very relevant to the question I asked. So hooray for life guidance! She's auctioning off an unlimited number of these, so if you want to experience the thrill of victory and score some tasty tidbits of wisdom, you should buy one.


e) No seriously, why are you still at my journal? Go to the auction!

HA! Just when you thought it might be safe to start looting my body. NO! I am alive, I say. Though the past week I have been consumed by real life projects (one in particular, heh heh), the plague (fluuuu!) and startrekbigbang. So here's that's up:


* I'm two weeks behind on Heroes. This is a travesty. I'm working on fixing it.
* I have comments to reply to, I know. I'll get on that as soon as Monday happens.
* I'm brewing some exciting ideas for my xoverexchange fic.
* On Monday my startrekbigbang fic goes up. It's 58,000 words of more angst than you can shake a phaser at.


Okay, now tell me the most awesome thing you've written/read/done in the past month so I can start catching up on all the fun.
