cerulean_sky• Happy Valentine's Day, all! I hope you are all having a good day, regardless of your relationship status.
• I am a hell of a lot more chipper this year than I was last year (or the year before), the cause of which should be obvious. Though, really, today was just a normal Tuesday for me. The Boyfriend and I celebrated our Valentine's Day this past Saturday with a nice romantic dinner date and then coming home to pomegranate wine and chocolate covered strawberries made by yours truly. :) It was lovely.
• Having just gotten my butt in gear, the sign ups for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
fantasybigbang will go live tomorrow. This year there's also a DW mirrow comm: ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
fantasybigbang. We're going to see how it works, mostly. lady_mab thinks it will work (and might get us more participants), so we'll see. Fingers crossed.
• Speaking of getting my ass in gear, I'm finally doing things. I'm going to try to get my car fixed before my Spring Break (second week of March), I'm going to be applying for internships soon so I sent an email to the head of my program asking for a meeting to Talk About Things, and I emailed my advisor for my Independent Study (finally) about actually starting. Halle-fucking-luja.
• This last one means that I will also (finally) be finishing a goddamned story. The first one I'm working on is a story based on a song by the Oysterband called "No Reason to Cry" (which is also what I'm currently calling the story, because it doesn't have a proper title). I ought to be finally writing a bunch of short stories that I've had sort of sitting around—some of them are fully outlined!—but haven't actually written. I'm sort of excited for that aspect of this experiment.
• Other than that, school is still school. I'm close enough to being done that I'm just putting my head down and ignoring things that drive me crazy. (Or at least, I am just ranting about them to the Boyfriend and my mom and my paper journal so that I can get it off my chest.) Anyway. School is happening. That's about all there is to it.
That's also all there is to this entry. Time to finish my sammich (and beer) and finish my work for tomorrow.
