We have been busy! Busy like whoa, it feels. But we took the day off work today, which was incredibly lovely. Here are some things we've done lately:

Last Sunday I went to Salem, MA with [livejournal.com profile] caitirin, [livejournal.com profile] _melisande_, and [livejournal.com profile] i_esperanza. It was a beautiful day, and we went to the House of the Seven Gables and all sorts of stores. I got shiny new rocks :3 I got (yet another) piece of smoky quartz (a round clear brown-grey bubble which I just adore) and two pieces of spectrolite (which is apparently a hard variety of labradorite? Cool!) and a pinkish piece of moonstone, and... something else... some blue onyx (I think?) and another little very yellowy piece of smoky quartz. I just can't help it with the smoky quartz!

Then we went to this beautiful, huge park that was full of the most glorious trees. We met a very large doggie (an akita) and sat by the sea, and then I climbed a tree in my long skirt and I couldn't get down XD [livejournal.com profile] caitirin had helped me up by letting me step into her hand, but I didn't know how I would get down. [livejournal.com profile] caitirin wanted me to step on her shoulder and she'd lower me to the ground, but I was afraid I'd squish her, so [livejournal.com profile] i_esperanza came over to help me by letting me take her hands as [livejournal.com profile] caitirin lowered me down... but I put more weight on her than I did on [livejournal.com profile] caitirin and we all fell over in a heap XD Nobody was hurt and we all almost died laughing. It was pretty fabulous :3

I have this long list of fannish things I want to do, but I'm either too busy or when I have time, I'm like "Blaaaaah, I'd rather stare into the middle distance." So I thought I'd make a list in lieu of actually accomplishing anything!

Fannish things I want to do/finish:

- I'm working on a Holmes and Watson fic (nothing I've been requested to do, something different *shifty look*) and it's close to being done, but I just keep fighting with it because part of the time I think it's goofy beyond belief and part of the time I think it's predictable and boring. There are also moments that I think it's pretty okay, but they're less frequent.

- I also want to write fics based on the Holmes-and-Watson sentences I wrote: the one about them going sailing on the Serpentine, and about Holmes and Watson having to look after Mrs. Hudson's nephews. And I had this line! I swear I did! But I have no idea where it went. Somewhere in the sinkhole of my brain, I expect.

- I'm THIS CLOSE |----| to being done with this stupid Cody and Aldridge thing I've been writing for months on end. I stop writing it for weeks and the come back to it. It's so almost done! It just needs an ending! I want to finish and post it but I don't know how to end the blasted thing.

- I've made two or three Starsky & Hutch icons with text and all, and making icons out of live action things is really difficult for me. I want to make more, but that means making more screencaps, which means I need some long period of time in which I can play the episodes on my laptop. Bwaaaaah. But I really want to make them!

- I have to finish my Starsky & Hutch chibis! So's I can post them :3

- I have all these awesome ideas for pictures for a certain [livejournal.com profile] _melisande_, and I want to draw them aaaaaallll :D Muahaha! But I need some pictures for references and I'm worried about spoilers if I google for them XD *is going to anyway* [edit: Mission accomplished! Found pictures and didn't get spoiled!]

- I want to watch To Play the King again, onnacounta Colin Jeavons, and because [livejournal.com profile] caitirin hasn't seen it yet.

My fingers are all tingly! I wonder if it's because it's hot. *pats her icon of bemused!reboot!Spock*
