CONFUNNIT!!!

tabular_rasaTo quote Tomio's grandfather in "Under the Blood-Red Sun" . . . "CONFUNNIT!!!"
How appropriate. He was Japanese-American. Good book, that was. I milked it for all its information back in like 8th grade-- and then again in 9th or 10th when I babysat for Helen and it was at Alice's house.
Speaking Japanese-Americans, "Obasan" is on the AP reading list. I am so reading it. I HAVE AN EXCUSE!!! Lol . . . I do believe I will know that one well-- or at least the parts I have a use for. Quiz me on "Snow Falling On Cedars," and, by God, I will know every flashback part so well . . . but the trials . . . pssh, I don't remember a freaking thing . . .
So, anyway, the point I was trying to make here was, "I . . . HATE . . . SAUERKRAUT!!!"
No, not really. I just tried saving my whole story-- well, not actually my whole story, only the first 17 chapters of it-- to a disk, and it popped up and told me it hadn't saved, so I tried logging out of the program and recalling it, because sometimes (oftentimes) my computer lies to me. Then I went to recall it, and the computer crashed. Well, not crashed . . . but turned off. Died. Exploded, if you will . . .
Anyway, it still works . . . but I have no story on a disk and I doubt another will fare so well. I just wasted a whole disk, too, with this little mishap. Stupid volume-lackingness of disks. I would burn it to a CD . . . but I don't know how.
So . . . should I do the journal thing, or what? Personally, I think it would be funny . . . and I can just make it friends-only friends list the people that I have given permission to read it. Then everyone can comment on it and I can read it, and then I can repost stuff . . .
The only problem is that I know if I make a journal on it on livejournal, Fate will ensure no one will ever make a livejournal community devoted to my story, ever. I just know this (perhaps this will spite this???).
Still, should I do it? I kind of want to ^_^ lol . . . yet I'm not so sure I should. I need Nichole's book where she opens it and it tells you what to do . . . of course, it's usually stupid and ambigous . . . "Do what you feel is right." "Do what your friends say." "Do as you feel is most beneficial."

Date: 2004-09-21 08:58 pm (UTC)Although I would LOVE to see it as a community.
You know what we should do! We should make a private, friends-only community where we can post our writing back and forth. Like, you can put your story up; I could put stuff there if I wanted you to read it, etc. etc. It'd be like one of those writing communities, but we could give actual feedback (since most communities give ZERO feedback :/ )
Yeah! That would be awesome!
And that way, it wouldn't be just a community for your story--it would be for anyone we wanted to let in. So Fate would be daunted. Ha. Ha. *gives Fate chocolates, to ensure goodwill*
Don't say that. I'm sure someday you will have a massive fan base for your writing, and people can happily slash your characters into oblivian...*shudders*
It'll be awesome. Let's do that! Eeeee! :D

Date: 2004-09-22 04:58 am (UTC)Perhaps since there would already be one . . . Fate would be forced to continue it? *Continues to deluge Fate in chocolate.*
Got an idea for a username? I can make it tonight . . . or you can. It doesn't matter . . . ooh, I'm excited . . .
Yea! Slashiness would only go to prove I have achived the highest level of fandomness!!! Lol . . . Though I really don't give them many options . . . there's only a couple arrangements of males possible . . . and . . . well, one of them would probably involve kinky use of a baseball bat . . . erm . . .
Okay, I'll just let THEM get creative with it . . . if they ever do.
