Heads you Live, Tails you Die

YES I DO. And everyone thinks I'm crazy for it.

My Ka that I have now is called Tia. I'm not sure if she likes it, because we don't talk very much yet. Apparently she is intimidated by me. I must have become far more intimidating recently...

I used to have my beautiful Bella-car. She was called Isabella because she was very dramatic and a little crazy, and she used to do things like steal gears off me, so I could drive in a traffic jam with no first gear. She also changed my music whenever she got bored. She was fun. I miss her.

Also, I sometimes drive Eric when my car isn't working. He's called Eric because it took me a while to work out that he was a boy, and he used to be very cross with me and throw me off the road in corners. But then I worked it out and we get on fine now. He's very calm and reliable. He just plodds on quiet happily.

My Mum's car is called Gordon, but I'm not allowed to drive him and he doesn't like me much anyway. I think he's bored because he's the sports version and my mum drives like a tortoise.

And the Scoobie is called Scoobie. Because he's a Scoobie. I'm not allowed to drive him either. But that's OK because he doesn't even speak to me. He's probably forgotten how from being forced to listen to cricket for hours every day.

That's all the cars I'm allowed to name. My friend's cars have names, but I'm usually driving other people around, so I don't know them so well.

Also: Hello LJ. I'll update after the rugby, assuming I get some sleep before then... ♥

Honestly though, I had the best advice I've ever had from a very drunken friend when I was 16. I'm not going to be dramtic and say it completely changed my life, but it was the right advice just when I needed it.

[Error: unknown template qotd] Oh! When to choose.. Hmm. Well, I’ve fallen back in love with the Sharpe books, so early 19th Century would be fun, but only if I was a guy, and Genderswap doesn’t seem like it’s included in this Time Machine thingy. Maybe I can go back to 300AD and meet Arthur and learn all about proper paganism and stuff? That would be cool, and you got some pretty high powered Priestesses back then, like Nimue. I could do that. But really, I’d just go back to being the age I am now but 23 years ago, because Queen at Wembley? I’d do most anything to see that. Doesn’t really count as history though, does it? I don’t think I’m doing this right…

Today, Cait is made of fail. Exams did not go well, so it looks like I’m gonna have to take a year out whether I want to or not. *headdesk*

My ‘To Do’ list, that was created to make things simpler, keeps spawning new tasks for me, and actually creates more stress than what it solves. This is why I am not a list person, I can’t even do those right!

So I have Questions:

1. How do you choose titles for fics? I got forcibly trained out of having a title before writing the story a couple of years ago, but now I’m choosing titles after I’ve written and it stresses me.

2. Can anyone rec me Jack/Ianto fic that’s either page-meltingly hot or features outdoors!Ianto (or at least where Ianto’s not a total girl)? Please *puppy eyes you*.

Also, this is the cutest college!AU ever! All the characters are so colourful and life-like and the whole thing is just sweet enough to give you warm fuzzies without rotting your teeth. Really, it’s amazing. I’d have loved to see Chris with Steve, but the snippets of Chris/Sandy are all kinds of delicious…

Oooh! And I’ve found someone to go watch Watchmen with me. She didn’t believe me when I told her she’d have to be in charge of me, I may have to tone down the squee… *excited wibble*

And have a ( pretty ) because… just because I can. ♥
