Tumblr, Memorial Day, and Other 'Merica Things

Okay, I know it's only Thursday and if this throws your entire week out of whack, I'm really sorry. But it's Memorial Day weekend (side note: I had to look that up because I get that and Labor Day mixed up every freaking year) and it's going to be super busy. I had a few minutes right now to get this down and I always forget to put it up on Twitter when I schedule this thing for a future date, so we're going to see how this goes. We have about a billion things planned for this weekend and they're all at night, but I know I'm going to be sleeping during the day or just wanting to stare at my cat while she navigates my boyfriend's condo. Yes, he's being a brave soul and he invited her over for the weekend. He doesn't want her to be left alone for so long in my apartment, so he said I should bring her over for the long weekend. I'm sorry, but he is the sweetest, cutest thing ever. Even if his eye does swell shut and the other one gets all red and he starts itching like crazy. When that happens, then I can say those four beautiful, glorious words: I told you so.

I'm such a good girlfriend.

Anyway, this week has kind of flown by and I feel like I've done absolutely nothing. I think that's only because I'm done with Amory and I promised to take a few weeks sabbatical from it, and after dedicating most of my time to it, not touching it this week has made me feel like a bum. But I haven't been completely ignoring my creativity, no matter how much I tell it to shut up because I'm trying to sleep. My little vampire story is now transferred to Word (because I'm going to try writing a story on that thing) and the first two chapters I wrote a thousand years ago are edited to the best of my ability at the moment. I ended up writing two more chapters last night, because my fingers apparently wanted to fall off. I don't know what happened, but as I started writing, more things came to me and I just kept going. I suppose that's a good thing, right? I'm going to try to find little snippets of time this weekend to keep the momentum going, so keep your fingers crossed!

Oh, also, I know that I've had a Tumblr button on the side of this thing forever now, but I've only used that website to re-post a bunch of ridiculous pictures of Doctor Who or Moriarty. Seriously, it's a problem, please help me. Honestly, I never know what to really do with that thing. I have this blog and I didn't see the reason for another blog. But now I do! While searching for more pictures for the cover, I found a couple that made me fall absolutely in love with how ridiculous they were. Instead of waiting to put them up on this thing, I went to Tumblr, because that seemed more appropriate for these pictures. I'm still posting pictures of the good Doctors and Moriarty because, please. Most of my posts go straight to Twitter, so if you check that thing, you'll see how insane I am, but I just thought I'd let everyone know that I've gone crazy and started using that website as it's supposed to be used.

Warning: Tumblr is weird.

Anyway, I should run and prepare as much as I can for this weekend. I'm not looking forward to the drive with the cat. She's a talker and gets car sick. So. Much. Fun.

(Oh, side note 2: Please, whatever you do, don't listen to people when they tell you to read certain fan fiction. It's terrifying, but so incredibly hilarious that you find yourself moving onto the second freaking book because you know it's going to be so much worse than the first one, then you end up staying up until 2 in the morning because what do you have to wake up for and you have to find out why this idiotic girl can't just let this jerk go. Just. Don't. Do. It.)
