In which Sky is way to excited to be RPing again.

• Guess who's going to the orthodontist this month? This girl. My dentist suggested that some of my jaw problems might be fixed by orthodontia, and as long as no one suggests breaking my jaw and resetting it, I'm totally on board with having nice teeth. So, cavities fixed next Tuesday, orthodontist consultation sometime after that. Apparently my mom had braces when she was like... 35 or something. Not that I'm terribly worried about having braces at this age. (I kind of always wanted them when I was a kid. I thought they looked really neat.) So yeah.

• Hafta remind my dad that I need new contacts. Should probably find my prescription in order to do that.

• Apparently my new thing is collecting used travel books. I have two old ones from Ireland—both of them from before Ireland switched to Euros, they did switch right?—one for Cancun and the Yucutan Peninsula, and today at the library book sale I got one for Great Britain and one for Greece. All places I kind of desperately want to visit. Even more so for having these books. (Were I actually to go, I would get current books for the trip. Out of date travel books while traveling might be dangerous...)

• It's the beginning of my holiday season. What with my dad's birthday next week and my mom's in early November. I've gotten my dad's present—gave it to him early, it was a box of chocolate from See's—and my mom's too. (Not saying what it is here, she might read this. ;)) Now I am just onto friends and extended family. And I'm about... one quarter of the way through that list too. I feel pretty good about that. I'm giving myself one quarter of a gold star. :> I should definitely do something about cards, though...

• So, I'm playing Teddy Lupin in an all-eras Hogwarts RP in which all the generations are in school together, and you just make them cousins or something if they're like... father and son. In order to make him related to Remus Lupin and Nymphadora Tonks and not make him Ted Tonks (thus leaving that character for someone else) I... made him Teddy Black. He's cousins with everyone ever. I find this incredibly amusing. And by incredibly amusing, I mean it randomly cracks me up all the time. I can't tell if other people—other than the ones I'm playing with—will find this as amusing as I do.

• OH. THE POINT OF ALL THAT WAS. I made some icons for Teddy, and I chose a couple PBs because a metamorphagus—that was so the best idea ever. I chose Gaspard Ulliel and Eddie Redmayne. And I am very much considering using some of those icons here, because I like them lots. Eddie Redmayne is so beautiful. What is it with me and redheads?

• I'm also playing Draco Malfoy in this RP. LET ME KNOW IF YOU WANT TO APP LUCIUS MALFOY/DRACO'S OLDER BROTHER.

• Aaaaanyway. I want to finish my Covert Affairs fic. Ugh. I wish I had more than how they meet and that they have copious amounts of hot sex. D:

• Why are only episodes 2-5 of Hawaii Five-Oh on Hulu? I can't start something on the second episode! I need the first one! (...I am going to be at work tomorrow... Time to find a torrent!)

• I'm waffling on my NaNoWriMo plans. I might end up taking an RP that Mira and I did and plotted out and turn it into a novel. Because then I don't have to worry so much about ensuring that there's enough plot in my own plans. We'll see. I'll go through the ones that I thought would make good novels and see if I feel like writing any of them.

• Mkay, I need to shower, finish up a log between Remus and Teddy—I am laughing again, look at that—and do a little bit more Tacitus reading.

• ETA: AND THEN I DID UPLOAD SOME OF MY TEDDY PICS. AND I AM USING ONE NOW.
