First off, y'all have no idea all the awesomesauce, totally amazingly mindblowing blogthings quizzes results you've missed because my LJ simply refused to function properly and stuff. Like, it wouldn't even let me post crap, I mean, you don't realize how basic and irreplaceable a feature it is, until the possibility to post gets mysteriously (and as of yet unexplainedly) taken away from you.

But. Since I'm here, let me tell you about my day. ::gears up::

You know it's one of those days when the first thing that happens to you is your coffee pot making weird noises and stinking up your entire apartment because you forgot to put the water (and the coffee) in before you put it on the fire... yeah.  At work I managed to get my thumb bruised by the cash machine. And the drawer where we keep the money. It's like this, the cash machine is mostly there for show emotional reasons, it doesn't work and according to the lore it hasn't since 1998 when the boss tossed it against a wall (the specifics aren't clear for anyone, but methinks it has something to do with all those anger management books we keep coming across in the storage room) and from that moment on has stubbornly refused to be fixed, the boss, however, is more stubborn(er) and so will not get rid of it because it was the first cash machine he bought with his own money (and it's also very much outdated by now) and whatever, inappropriate workplace love affairs aside, the stupid machine has bouts of joyful life during which it, uh, comes to life and fools distracted dependents into thinking it works, and only when the dependent has come to realize she doesn't know how the machine works because, oh hey it doesn't work,  does the darn thing go back ot its general state of non-functionality, with the dependent's finger trapped under it. That hurt.

But it was worse when the drawer (which has no reason whatsoever to not function properly because it's a drawer) refused to open up and then to close and both times I got my fingers smashed awkwardly.

::weeps:: woe is me. In the meantime, while nursing my poor, bruised, abused fingers, I shall be sitting here wearily eyeing LJ lest it decide it wants to be funny again.

P.S.: I am in an altered state of mind. Please do forgive this post's abundance of commas, italics and possible penchant for unexsitent words (although they do, arguably, exist now that I made them up ::thoughtfully strokes beard::).

Dear Aerophagia:

I hate your guts.

No love (whatsoever), Me.


And it also bears to notice that I cannot stop listening to Terry Callier. This has made my day, so by ways of silver lining...

So, I have this headache, right? Well, in two hours it'll be pushing it's three days mark. Blood vessels in my left eye have bursted, and so I make a very nice picture, with eye bags, the reddened eye and, oh yeah, crankiness levels up to eleven.

Fun times.
tea_and_ink: (one does not love breathing)
the book shelf collapsed. Again. I don't even know how it does it, the damn thing is on the floor, how does it come down from there?

::is mystified. And annoyed::
tea_and_ink: (anything frail anything wild)
As I sit here, in caffeinated expectation until it's nine o'clock and the world starts spinning around these parts again, it hits me: other than institutionalized mental patients, their somewhat annoying psychiatrist and his (rather lovable) student, and the people I've conned into letting me interview them, I have no social life.

This is why I did not go to med school (aside of the insides-sighting part, of course), I wanted to be able to still, like, talk to people. As in people who did not honestly believe the Queen of England is masquerading in their basement as a rat, which is obviously part of a plan for world domination. Obviously.

Man, even my bf is someone from school/work. Jesus. H. Christ. Dear flist, please to remain awesome. Thank you.

And in the matter of the flist being awesome. I have a rec. Nosce te ipsum by [personal profile] rei_c  is truly an outstanding work of creativity. The style is impeccable and the basic premise is more than a little enticing. What if the Greek Empire had not been defeated, what then? It's RPS but there's no actual slash, pre-slash I think, but it's open enough that if you're not into that kind of thing, you'll still love it because of how true it rings. Jensen is Jensen-ish and Jared is accurately Jared-ish. And then there are secondary characters that have lives and an entire universe that makes things so utupian I found myself wishing this society did actually exist just so I could go gorge myself on their history books and philosophers' views. Seriously, do yourselves a big ol' favor and read it.

I shall go back now, to the flower boy's attempts at changing my worldview on modern medicine. Little boy don't learn.
tea_and_ink: (why me?)
So, just got home from this really horrible flight wherein, among other things, I wasn't allowed to sleep and then got groped by an anti-drugs guard in a completely unnecessary stop, to find the roommate still here and so not getting ready to leave, which she should have done last week according to plans, it's okay though, I understand why she's still there, but I am pissed by her "teehee, we too got screwed up in the deal here so be sympathetic, meanwhile I'll relax and kick  some more of your stuff around whilst completely ignoring the part where I apologize to you for not letting you know I wasn't gone yet" attitude, but you know, I can put that behind. Can you tell I'm pissed? maybe I didn't lay it thick enough?

But, that is not why I'm here even though it really, really is. I was all glummy and pissy and belligerent, but then new pics of Jen popped up in my flist and  voila! I am no longer a snappy five-year-old, although I still have the very pressing urge to stomp my foot, but I'm not gonna because I'm all about maturity right now ::nods::

Anyway, just came by to vent a little, ogle Jen and let you know that I'm back in black. How've y'all been doing?

Stories about my brother in an airplane, certain colombian inappropriate officer and the vent to mother all vents will be forthcoming as soon as I can make myself talk about it without breaking into tears (remember the maturity part?), oh yeah, and after I've showered and slept it off.

C'mon flist, make it better. Pretty please?

Well, I is still alive despite the rumors. Here to put a couple things out there.

Thing the first: Happy belated, like really belated, birthday to [personal profile] laivine . I could explain what on earth kept me from getting to do this on a timely fashion, but I won't because it will, undoubtedly, come out lame, so I'm just gonna sit here and hope you had a great b-day, wish you a fantastic 24th (right?) year of life. Much love and good wishes and, of course, chocolate cookies for you, babe.

Thing the second: I might be going into a forced hiatus, I might not. Either way, you are strongly encouraged to poke me if there's anything you think I should lay my eyes on. Strongly encouraged, remember.

Thing the third: for some odd reason, I'm really broken up about Heath Ledger's passing, it could be related to the date, but I think it has more to do with him being so young and so there in that strange way celebrities are, and I am not even such a good fan but, it's just over for him. That's shocking, you know?

This all. Much love to birthday girls who are all around awesome, and possibly pathetic requests to keep me posted on whatever I should be kept posted on.

I...

Am tired.

Am homesick (please be posting TX related material. Please. I'll be your fic-whore for a month. That needy I am)

Have the physical evidence of how scatter-brained I am. As my buss rode by a movie theater on my way back home today, I spotted the Ninja Turtles Movie poster... I didn't know there was a movie about those fellows. I do not need to create an AU for any of my characters, because I clearly live in one of my own.

Managed to quell a monster-headache before it took its full toll for the very first (and hopefully not last) time in my life. Yay me.

Need to sleep, and buy groceries. And possibly do the laundry.

Bought a new coat. And it is the shit.

Am gonna kick my laptop any time soon. I have this Autumn pics that I want to mail to [personal profile] cherryscott , but as it turns out, I can't download them on my laptop because that little  ungrateful bastard claims it to be "impossible to establish a connection with the new hardware found"... I hate technology with a passion.

Have officially turned in my last report on The Project of Doom, so my last week as a teacher is painfully close. I wonder if I could ask for an extension.

This all. Yours truly: Me
tea_and_ink: (why me?)
So, I'm posting because I feel obligated to... something. Whatever.

Just got off the buss (not entirely true, I mean I got off at noon, but my butt's still sore, so in my mind? I just got off the buss) and my mom wants me to help her with some statistics she has to deal with. Like, she wants me to think... at 11:22 p.m. local time... I think cold is getting to her brain. I'm worried about her now.

The 16 hours buss trip was met with an unshakable weather of insomnia. The whole sixteen hours I was completely and utterly awake. Even the baby two sits down slept more that I did. That seems wrong to me.
Good thing though, I got home and there was an ample selection of meals for me. They were yet to be cooked and stuff, but dude, my mom actually went out of her way to ensemble a menu of sorts for me. That rocks.

Told you my butt hurts? Well it does. Its ten kinds of annoying and now my sister wants me to teach her how to be sarcastic... this ought to be interesting.  What makes it all worth it? Jared is jealousy-insane ::insert evil laughter here:: because I get to spend mom's b-day with her, while he has to call her all the way from Dallas! Yeah, that's right folks, I am this mature.

Also? the guy went to Richardson, as in Richardson, TX? Home of Jensen fucking Ackles? and didn't get me pictures of... everything. C'mon Jared! Try harder, dude.

Oh and in the ways of the by (Sophie's got that one stuck on me, damn her!) I am so posting that M/A thing, because well, its annoying the living breath out of me, to see it sitting there on my hard drive doing nothing productive what so ever. So, be waiting for it. I'm giving you head's start here peeps, if you're interested in reading it (which you should be, because well, I wrote it and I want the world to read it... there, another shiny example of my levels of maturity) its... not the love of my life, but its coming out dammit!

This all.

Typical.

Just got results from yesterday's blood work. Not good. Doc said my hormones are going nuts again. Because I didn't know that already ::eye roll:: weight loss might have something to do with that too. And clearly the recent pimples (painful little fuckers) are also related, they are leaving sun-stains on my face! I am pissed at my body chemistry.

Migraines? Still a mystery. The theory remains that a group of neurons is (for some, yet undisclosed, reason) working independently, which means that blood doesn't reach them as fluidly as it should resulting in lack of oxygen in my brain, swelling and consequent migraine. How is that possible? Can neurons work isolated? Why does everything around me have to develop a will of its own?
But, you know, we knew this already, what's got my panties in knots is that Ibuprofen is no longer effective... 400mg do NOTHING to take the pain away, ice goes completely unnoticed, darkness is not even a pebble in the migraine's shoe. I'm helpless in the face of my headaches

Doc's freaking out because we could give it a shot at some stronger pain killers but I'm twenty year old... and there is really no chance of sending the migraines away. I already have medication for life (hormones, which aren't working either) we don't want to add a possible future addiction to pain killers. 

So. Not. Fear.

Also? my blouse unbuttoned yesterday. In school. Actually only the two top buttons fell open, not that those two little bastards do anything, right? They only cover my tits from public display. So now five dudes know that I own a purple bra... and I caught the god-damned buttons right when they were revolting so I could cover up before any major embarrassment took place. But then these lovely boys had the gentleness to point out that purple really compliments my skin tone! 
I kinda hate men right now.

So clearly, I need some Jensen to make it all right. Right?
tea_and_ink: (huh?)
Again. I sense a pattern here, and its starting to worry me. Huh. ::shrugs::

I was supposed to be all inspired and shit this morning. We had a debate in Ethics class about Human Rights and the extent of Law when it comes into contact with said rights (Argentine is a country that abides by Human Rights, so often times, the confrontational situation arises, Law vs HR) it was interesting. I am pro Human Rights and thus sat on my designated side of the class. Things were shiny until Death Penalty was brought up... What do you have to say to that Paola? (this guy knows I'm American and he has a thing against people like me, also I think he's a bit misogynist, so yeah, I knew that he'd do that to me) I, being the smart cookie that I am, quoted Jefferson... the kid had to think real hard to come up with who Jefferson was. I know it was mean, but it both illustrated my opinion on the subject and shut him up in a polite and elegant way.

I feel this evil glee now. Its wrong I know, but the guy did it intentionally to let me down in front of the entire class (I know I sound childish and possibly spoiled, but still) I so did the right thing. Okay, so I may have lowered myself to his level, I could have been the bigger person and let him have his glory for like, five minutes... but I'm not that big. And oddly enough, I'm not sorry. So far.
And its incredible how Ethics is so very present in this matter.

After that debate, I was unable to stay focus for more than three minutes at the time. Not to mention that all the comments and jokes coming out of my mouth keep having this childish hue... I'm thinking that maybe I didn't unplug my brain, maybe I broke it.

Still not sorry though.
tea_and_ink: (huh?)
Okay, so my ADD has reached levels never known before which has made this week... interesting. Yeah, let's call it that. And its only Tuesday (Spn night! Yay).

The lab partner brought his ass home and the first paper is DONE, procrastination notwithstanding. Kudos for us. 

I haven't been able to sit and actually get some fic-action going, so I'm scared that when I finally get to do it... I won't be able to pick up where I left off. Which means that there'll probably be some changes in what I've got so far. Not too happy with that.

Got new photos, and I'm pimping them for this amateur contest that will be taking place in the National Art Gallery next April. If I'm lucky, I'll get in (three pictures minimum per participant, six max) and will get some exposure. Exposure is good. Though I'm not sure I'll be able to pull it off due to lack of free time to dedicate to sucking up.... I'll figure something out.

Mmmh, bought Supernatural's Season 1 DVD box set. I'm happy as a clam! 

Lost 10 lbs, and that's not good. I have an appointment with the doc tomorrow, wish me luck and pray the balance was broken or something. Unexplainable weight-loss is never a good thing. ::shakes head::

Well, that's that. Still breathing, despite the universe's attempts at stopping me from doing so. Btw, I got an allergic reaction to... well, I still don't know. You think the weight issue might have something to do with the rash part? Could those be related?. 
Huh, I'm thinky now....
tea_and_ink: (bookish)

You've been getting from me, is because we've just been informed that our reports on The Project of Doom, must be turned in by the end of April. We're in March, and we'd planned to have it done by June... the earliest. So we're very, very delayed. Hence my absence.

Hopefully our "Teaser Trailers" will buy us some more time. Highly improbable, but hope dies last...

Also, I've been using my rather scanty spare time to read Dean Koontz. 

Which means that Koontz is the new hero in town. I think I'm in love peeps! So far got under my belt "By the Light of the Moon", "Velocity" and I'm on chapter eight of "Dean Koontz's Frankenstein" co-written by Kevin J. Anderson, who also co-wrote Dune's prequel with Brian Herbert. I'm happy about this.  They're all good books, thought provoking and well plotted honest-to-god suspense. Oh yeah, I'm very happy.

On another depressing news, we get Supernatural on Tuesdays here, we also got a massive black out last Tuesday. At 9:54 pm EXACTLY... It was a boring night. And NO SPN. There is no justice in this world!

Well, this all.



tea_and_ink: (porn!Jen)
My "verbal porn" icon ::points icon:: is not necessarily related to actual porn!
Yes, it does make reference to guilty pleasures, yes I coulda used some other line, yes there are very few things Jensen Ackles can't porn up for me.

I made it, because I read like a junkie whether they are books, fanfictions, newspapers, hell I even read my notebooks every once in a while... ahem. I also write, profusely (not that you get to see that, but still). Thus letters are as enjoyable for me as the kind of porn I indulge in.

Why is reading/writing a guilty pleasure? Because I can usually be found performing either of those activities when I should be doing something else, like cleaning, cooking, studying, working, or whatever else the affected party finds more productive. In fact I get more creative in my writings, not to mention more obsessive with my reading during mid-terms and finals periods. A perfect example is now, when I'm kinda busy falling in love with Dylan O'Conner hence completely ignoring the three papers and two presentations I have to work on. See what I mean? See the utility of such an icon? See why JA? Why verbal porn? See?

So to answer the burning question: No, it does not refer to actual porn exclusively, although it has and will continue to be applied to posts related to the subject every now and then. But also, will be seen adorning posts that deal with the pimping of books, fics, and adjoined themes that do not treat porn in any fashion...
 ANd the reason why I'm placing this answer here, where my flist can read it... is for the utter annoyance of the inquiring individual.
There. Happy now?

Yesterday, sunday 25th, was a month since Evan's passing, which means that Max spent the entire day in my apartment trying to get me to stop crying and kicking stuff, it would have worked if he weren't cursing so much, but alas.

Anyway, at some point we decided that tv wasn't really doing the trick, so lets clean (I swear it was Max's idea) is all good, until we reach the stack of books by my bedside. There were three books that I never returned to Evan, two pictures inside one of them, another one had a dead leaf between its pages. I also found a pair of socks Evan left last time he was around and we never found in time before he left, a blue jersey I stole from him, and a shoe, he never mentioned being one-shoe-short...

After that, I kicked more stuff.

Tears in Heaven by Eric Clapton was on repeat for god knows how long before we realizad we'd heard that song before.

Also, this... uh... poem? came out while "The Godfather, Part III" was on commercial break. Absolutely unbetaed, so you've been warned.


I really have no idea what is it about... I thought it was about Evan, but then I read it again... and yeah, no idea. Still, I like it so, I don't care.
tea_and_ink: (anger)

My migraine is so loud I can't even hear the other voices in my head, and let me just count the many ways this sucks. Its got me all pissed off and easily annoyed by anything coming from the outside world. I do not like being like this.

Also, I'm in the market for some nice Jessica Alba picture for my drool bucket. I mean, she's kind of scorching hot, and yet, none of the pictures I've found of her seem to be good enough... or at all. So got any that you'd like to share? Pretty please?

tea_and_ink: (mr universe)
I'm back in Argentine... back to real life wherein I pretend to study and try to work... not that it always works, but y'know, I do my best.

Since I landed I've been having this desire to write something with a latin title... yup I'm weird like that. Been thinking about "Tempus Fugit" and it'd be somewhat angsty or deliriously happy... Time Flies, time flies... what else can you write to that title? 
Any other title you'd like to suggest? I'm all ears.

Another temperature change and I'm going nuts, here its the middle of summer and moisture is about 20-30%. I'm dying and my skin is falling off. I'm shedding my skin people, and I've been here for like, 27 hours and 43 minutes (not that I've been counting) and already I'm watching my skin fall off in layers. Its so nice to be back.  ::snorts::

Left the bro back in Dallas, and got here to watch "Tall Tales", and yeah, Jared (my Jared, the one that looks vaguely like me) started popping in my head so much I had to call him to tell him to download the ep because, Oh God, such a brotherly thing to do, getting in each other's nerves and needling the other... he called me back to tell me how much he loved me, and how convinced he was that I too could "acknowledge" other people's pain. In my defense, I have seen him put SIX GRAPES in his mouth. At the same time.

My brother cracks me out.

Anybody else fell off their chair from laughter during this ep? We should start a support group or something.
I truly missed the lighter episodes, the ones that had nothing to do with the mytharc and thus with the rest of the eps, and that totally rocked your socks off. Oh man, I love spn so much I'd marry it if I could, I wanna have its babies. Dude! that has to be wrong on some level...

its like looking at the sun?... I can only imagine Jensen's reaction to that one! 
I gotta go laugh some more now. While moisturizing my nose, for like, the hundredth time today. URG!
tea_and_ink: (mr universe)

Landed safely, after a SIX HOURS delay that had me all squirrmy and annoyed, and Sophie was doing that thing where she is just a brat because she knows that'll get people to notice her, and Jared was sleeping like a baby in the midle of the boarding room, and I truly hate him for that because it left me dealing with Sophie AND dad AND mom, AND ME! not a pretty place to be at I tell ya.

After surviving all that, daddy comes to the airport to pick us up, and Jared and I were siblings again, jumping all over him like two sugar-high puppies. Mom took pictures. The other dad watched. And then, joined the noise, he’s good at that.

Now, I'm all warm and toasty but my ass still hurts and I can't feel my left foot, not good people, I like my left foot!.
Anyway, all the insanity going on around me has sprouted this *need* for porn like you wouldn't belive. So much that I even got this little PWP piece with Max and Alec in it, also there was some Jo/Sam, and I'm fighting real hard this images of a Dean/Ellen pairing, because there's people in this house and I ought to be with them, since I came all the way over here and all to, y'know, *be* with them... not to burn brain cells in hopeless porn bunnies!

The worst part? I still wanna read some Max/Alec, bacause I suck at writing someone else's characters and that one was just a hormons-driven attempt at fanfiction ::shakes head::

Got Josh Groban's "Awake" and I've been tapping my foot to it (the right one, since apparently I lost track of my left foot's whereabouts) for the last four hours, I put it in repeat and I love it, I might go to bed with it too. Hey! I could write some porn to that music, see what comes out.... I wanna get out of my brain, like, right now, its starting to creep me out! Fo' Real.

tea_and_ink: (anger)

I’ve got a cold. A goddamned cold! Its freakin’ summer here people! How on earth did I manage to catch a cold with this heat, is beyond me. All I know is that my throat is sore, my nose is doing thing where is running the whole time and I have a fuckin’ migraine like I haven’t had for years.

Also? Even though I am sleepy, still can’t sleep because I can’t breathe!

 

Now none of this would be half as obnoxious as it is, if I wasn’t due a flight to Texas next Sunday. And I already have a cold.

 

Fuckin’. Fuck.
