 | 04:04 pm - Leave of Absence Hm, so first things first....any new fic? haha
I see already that there's TWO new chapters to Xie's Directions. Woot! It's been awhile, so I may have to reread it all. Ah what an awful thing to have to do, I know. ha. I maybe even have to reread ALL of the "Only Time" stories. We'll see.
Bah this is the bad part of taking a leave of absence--I now want to go back and check all the fic I missed while I was away, yet I know a) that's gonna take a long time and b) new ones are probably being posted as I'm writing this.
Being involved in a fandom is hard work. Current Mood: determined

 | 12:44 am - Back...sorta Man it's been ages since I've been on here. Actually, a bit nervous coming back. I kinda have been avoiding insanejournal, trying to be less obsessed, less absorbed with QAF. But the damn thing won't leave my mind. So I'm back, perhaps only for tonight just to look around, but yeah. Hi.
Oh and Tweak says: "Stud + Sunshine = Love."
Damn, even Tweak is against me getting over this. Current Mood: nostalgic

 | 12:29 pm - *blinks while mouth gapes open* So I go and check my email this morning when I got up (ok, ok, afternoon if you want to get technical) and I have an email titled "Paid Account" from InsaneJournal. I'm like "huh?" then get worried that somehow I'm getting charged for a paid account by accident and quickly open it and what do I find? I do have a paid account.
For 12 months.
But it's already been paid for.
By qafmaniac.
I am speechless. And truly appreciative. I wish I could give something back...but I have almost no money and I'm not the greatest drabbler....but if I think of something I'll definitely dedicate it to you! :)
WOOT! I get to have more icons! I should start by browsing the back log of icons on qaf_icons I haven't looked at yet! Then I can raid people's icons haha. I never did finish raiding outlander's closet...
Thank you so much again qafmaniac!! Current Mood: thankful

 | 01:34 am - Real Life Sucks Gah...I want to curl up in a ball in bed and just stay there, for like umm...forever?
I do have some new books to read, maybe that will make things better. Although, it's still an avoidance tactic for the real world.
This icon is sooo perfect for how I feel most days. I have another one that would be good too--says "Wasting my days away..." Current Mood: crushed

 | 12:21 pm - Icon Dilemma So thanks to all those out there that got 5,000 pics, I raided their closets and filled out mine more.
Sadly, I still just have the free 100 icons, and 95 of them are taken.
I'm gonna have to give in and start paying, aren't I?
I'll hold out a bit longer, you know, until I have a job that pays. :P Current Mood: distressed

 | 07:30 pm - Fic Rec I usually only read fic that is B/J central, but I do have a bit of a soft spot for Michael when he's in his geeky, comic book mode haha. I came upon this fic, and it's Michael being nostalgic of the past, yet also showing him moving forward. It takes place around 210, when Capt. Astro dies. It's short and sweet, well maybe slightly bittersweet, but you can tell he's moving to sweet. :)

Hmm, and I have no Michael icons, no Rage icons...
I should get some. Especially of Brian and Michael and Justin and Michael. Current Mood: thoughtful

 | 04:23 pm - QAF Quote Meme Woot! I was tagged. This is a Queer as Folk quote meme. In your own journal, pick a favorite QAF quote, post a photo or icon to go with it, and tag three others! I had a hard time choosing, then decided to start from one of my first favorite lines, where Brian basically set himself up for falling for Justin. :P It's also fun to see where teh love began, and know how it's changed and yet stayed the same. (And yay I know to post images! Thanks Bunny! And I realized there's a button that even says "insert image" *facepalm* haha)

"I want you to always remember this ... So that no matter who you're ever with ... I'll always be there."
And I tag brianslave68, drtylittlescret, and nolyana Current Mood: satisfied

 | 12:19 pm - If a Squash Can Make You Smile Title: If a Squash Can Make You Smile Authors Name: </a></b></a> quirks4me A/N: Thank you to DLS! I said cucumber, she said Veggie Tales and baby salads, and THIS was born. (And she even gave me suggestions on how to make it better! :D ) Outside of Challenge
“What the fuck is this? “Veggie Tales-Bible stories told by vegetables.” “Because clearly the stories make more sense when told by produce.” "It's supposed to be fun; it's keeping Gus interested. And he's learning different types of vegetables."
Brian looks over at the screen. “Is that a cucumber?”
Justin looks, and then glares at Brian. “Don't. Say. Anything.”
Brian gives him his patented smirk. “What? I was just gonna ask if you wanted your salad tossed?” “Only you could make this dirty. “ “What? The produce doesn't give sex tips? ‘Hey kids, use protection so you don't make baby salads!’” Current Mood: silly

 | 07:03 pm - Oh nO! I won't be able to participate in the marathon tonight. :( I'm so sad!
See, I don't own Qaf on DVD. (I know, I know. I'm working on it!)
So I've been watching it either on youtube or surfthechannel.com for the marathon, but neither of them have 215!!
I'm so bummed! I had some comments for the ep, and I love the scene with Brian and Justin in bed, even if Justin does fall asleep on Brian. Current Mood: sad
|
 | 05:18 pm - POV on QaF I was just looking at an icon by qafmaniac showing the loved ice cream kisses, and I realized I had two different sets: one from the original in 112, and the second from 301 when Justin has the flashbacks. Then it got me thinking of how it was interesting that we kinda got inside Justin’s head in that moment.
I just was musing over all this afternoon and thought maybe I’d post my thoughts, and would like to hear yours. Current Mood: pensive

 | 08:45 pm - Re-post of Bad!Fic Ethan Drabble
I posted this in QaF Drabble, so no need to comment again, but if you want, feel free! Haha It's more just so I can have my er, um "pieces of literature" as outlander so wonderfully put hers, all on my journal. (Yay for firguing out how to do IJ users names!)
Title: Ode to Bad!Fic or Ethan LOVES Badfic, Mpreg, and anything else a normal human being detests Author: Quirks4me Warnings/Author's Notes: So I was "inspired" by all bad!fic drabbles. So be warned! Bad!fic seems to be contagious. I'm not sure this is strictly bad!fic--like it's written normally, it's just Ethan's perspective is that of a Bad!fic writer. In a comment I left for DLS, I referenced him, since bad!fic seems to bring out the Ethan in me. Somehow I imagined him as writing bad!fic and this came about. Oh and there is no such musician named "Menissi" not that I know of anyway. I decided it was better to make-up someone than to blaspheme a great musician. And the condom goes to: Brian (although he'd probably wish he didn't upon reading this) I bask in his azure pools, hovering above me. “Are we gonna fuck?” “Perhaps we could reflect on how our relationship is like Menissi’s fourth variation in G.” “It’s not. Reflection over, now roll over.” “But baby, this is so much more. We are artists coming together, our souls joining! Together, we are more than one!” “Well we’d have to be, mathematically, more than one-there’s two of us. Anyway, there won’t be any cumming, if you keep talking.” I roll over, and let his large member enter my rosebud, hearing heavenly music- this music is his voice. “Fuck, you’re tight.” Current Mood: silly

 | 12:37 pm - My Muse is...Ethan?! Uhh...ok. So last night when I was trying to go to sleep THIS plot came into my head and my brain wouldn't let me sleep until I wrote it. I, I don't even know what to say. It's sorta bad!fic/crack!fic/just weird stuff with Ethan!fic. So read if you wish, dare, have the stomach for it. There are cats in it! I mean really, Lupe is the star, which she is excited about since she didn't even have a cameo on the show. I'm also unsure if I should make it longer, leave it as it is, or act like this never happen and move on.
Who knew that writing WeirdEthan!fic would make me so happy? If only I'd known that was the cure for my mood and my writer's block, I would have, um, cut off my hands? Current Mood: silly

 | 09:02 pm - Proof Ah, see something is really wrong with me.
Watching QaF used to make me happy and giggly, and squee, and all that.
Now it makes me sad and depressed.
I started crying during the B/J car scene in 213. :( Current Mood: listless

 | 01:35 pm - Case of the Mondays and Hump Day Combined Blah.
I wish I could get out of this slump.
These days nothing interests me. I either become bored, irritated or upset.
I don't know what I want.
And I have the feeling of both wanting to be with people and to be left alone.
Just like the idea of doing something interests me, but I don't feel like doing anything.
Oh and I should add that all of this amounts to me turning to food for comfort.
Blah. Current Mood: listless

 | 10:20 pm - Only One Right Answer Title: Only One Right Answer Author: quirks4me Timeline: Post 513 Author's Notes: Well, NY and Xie deserve thanks since their discussions of 513 inspired me to write something that helped me see past the pain, and focus on TEH LOVE that is there in 513, and to take Brian's "never again" speech not quite so seriously. :D Oh and this is my first drabble and first anything written as far as B/J. I have lots of stories running through my head but I've never written them down before. :\ Here it goes! *crosses fingers*
Both lie in Justin’s cramped bed, neither caring, satiated from the sex finished only moments ago.
“And here you were being such a drama queen, saying it’d be ‘never again’.”
“I didn’t say it’d be never again. I said ‘whether we see each other next week, next month never again.’ It was a multiple choice.”
“I see you chose option a.”
“Of course. It was the right answer.”
Justin looks over at him, seeing a smirk, which changes into a genuine smile. Justin returns a sunshine smile of his own.
“Damn right it was.”
He seals it with a kiss. Current Mood: artistic

 | 07:44 pm - Posting Drabble? Ok, so I just wrote a drabble (!!!) Yeah I'm excited and nervous--my first QaF drabble!
Anyway, it doesn't fit with the current drabble theme, so is it still ok if I post it, just don't reward anyone condoms?
And man, getting that 100 word count just right, is so difficult! I was already impressed with drabble writers, especially ones that work it tons of emotions all into those 100 words. Mine isn't that impressive, but hey, I did it! :D
P.S. I was just about to leave my computer then was like "nooo must save drabble just in case computer eats it while I'm away!"
Don't want that happening again. Current Mood: curious

August 31st, 2008
 | 03:34 am - Bad Idea Thinking about 513 before bed.
It just gets me all worked up and upset.
Wahhh. I spent all last night crying and staying up until 5:30am, I cannot do that again tonight. Maybe I'll go read something to get my mind off it.
For most, the end of season 2 is pain. I can get through that no problem. Slight twinge of hurt, but I know it ends happily in 308.
But season 5? For me that is my torture. As each episode goes by I get closer and closer to an end that continues to distress me.

August 29th, 2008
 | 02:26 pm - Where I bawl because my work disappeared I just wrote three fucking pages about Season 5 and was gonna post it and then thought "oh let's learn how to do an IJ cut so I don't spam everyone's flist! SO I copied it into Word. Then I tried to do an IJ cut and did control X with what I just wrote and was like "wait, I should do a practice run first." So then I coped the IJ cut code and put some gibberish.
You see what happened? Cause I didn't realize it until now when I saw the Word document was blank. I copied what I wrote, but then copied something else, deleting the previous thng. I checked the clipboard but nothing.
I am so upset. Like in tears, screaming. I had written up dialogue from the scenes, I had written all my thoughts. Anyone know if there's any way to retrieve that data again? If there is, OMG I will love you. Like become your slave or something.
Otherwise I'm gonna have to do it all over and I'm feeling too crushed to do that right now.
You have no idea, I was all pumped and revved about this, then this happens.
P.S. Thanks to Nolyana I now know how to do an IJ cut...but thanks to myself I now don't have anything to do a cut for. :( Current Mood: crushed

 | 12:41 pm - Test run Let's see if I figured this out
