And you’re sure your name is Julia?

I can’t believe that I just did that!

I’ve been in a writing funk for weeks. Haven’t been able to write anything. I’ve been attempting working on LNB and, as usual, it’s been picky and stubborn. Paris didn’t like the way I was taking things, too much peace and teenage novel happiness, so I’ve had to brainstorm for new ideas… I’m starting to get a little worried about it. I have only about four months to get it all done. Once rotations start, I doubt I’ll ever get a chance to work on it again. I’m actually getting “update now!” reviews… new experience that one!

So, after reading bjorks_defender‘s lovely story, Stupid Reasons, I was inspired. One-parters! I love fluffy one-parters, and I haven’t written any since my first, What A Wonderful World. That was over a year ago.

I dug out my sketch that I had done after A Family Matter aired. Too angsty. Couldn’t think of how I could make it happy. And I needed happy.

And last night, an idea came to me, so I went for it…

Never mind that it hints at things that I should never ever write about. Oh, it’s clean as a whistle, no swearing, no nudity (described at least) but this is me, folks, the girl who blushes at everything…

I actually wrote a bedroom scene! You can read it here: One of the Moments

AHHHH!!! I really wish I could find a little rock to hide under right now.

Marissa, this story was for you. A couple of years ago, my best friend and I did this story-writing thing, where we put ourselves as the main character with the “loves of our lives.” I tried writing one with you and Jess, and him comforting you about all the stupid college application stuff, silly and pointless fic to make you laugh, but it didn’t go anywhere… So, instead you get this. I hope you at least enjoy it. 🙂

Oh, and yes, in case, you were wondering, I am back from Guatemala. I’ve been back a week and a half now (sheepish grin). Beautiful place, I loved it so much. Still can’t speak a lick of Spanish, but other than that, it was great. I’m uploading some of my pictures, so I can gush about it all soon!

But I’m horribly behind on commenting to my friends… Sorry if I’ve neglected you!

    Aww…I can’t thank you enough. Seriously… It was so sweet of you.

    Hm… me and Jess together…. *goes to have happy dreams*

    The fic was wonderful.

    Hey, wasn’t it Nag Hammadi tonight?

    Eeee! You’re back! I’ve missed you. 🙂

    I broke my own spoiler-rule and read your story – its lovely and playful and happy and a lot of other words ending in ‘y’. *happy sigh* And now that I’ve broken my rule, you can tell me who Jess is.

      I’ve missed you too! I’ve been trying to keep up with your entries, but it got so busy when I got back! I’m sorry to hear about your kitty. It really broke my heart.

      Thanks for your compliments! It was a fun little story, althought a little more *risque* than I had first intended… But then, I know you’ve written the bedroom scenes before, so it’s probably old hat and you don’t even think about it anymore. My writing, I usually write about the first kiss and stop there. 🙂

      I’m sorry that I spoiled Jess for you. Acutally I’m not, because I think it’s a crime to miss out on all of the wonderful complexity that is Jess. Jess comes into scene the second season. He’s Luke’s nephew and has been having problems, so he comes to live with Luke. He’s a bit much for the little town, sarcastic, troubled bad boy, but he and Rory hit it off and the whole next season and a half is filled with UST between them, because she’s still dating Dean and isn’t sure about anything. I adore him, fell in love with him that season and haven’t been able to write about anybody else. He’s hotter than anything (well, okay, Elijah could give him competition, but I probably pick both of them), and he reads (which is just sexy), and I could just gush for hours. And the best thing is that he is so complex, he’s a jerk somethings, he’s vulnerable, he’s sweet, he’s the type of “bad boy” that we all want to fall in love with. The actor, Milo Ventimiglia, thank goodness, is like 27, so I have no problems lusting. 🙂

      I won’t spoil too much more, hopefully, you’ll eventually catch it all. If you want me to spoil about the season 2 finale, so you can read my other fics, I’ll do that, but otherwise….

      Oh, and in case you want to lust… some great pictures:

        Now I’m even more impatient (if that’s possible) for season two to start. Thanks for the links to the pics, as well. And why is it that reading men are so very sexy? I swear, if I see a man with a book (especially the types of books that I like), his chances just skyrockets!

        I’ll be good from now on – I’ll abide by my no-spoiler-rule again (we’ll see how long that lasts 🙂 ).

    Hey, nice to see you around, stranger! The fic was really good, BTW – I like the way you write.

    • admin says:

      Hey, good to see you too! I’ve been reading about all of your parties and been entertained by the crazy neew in the world that you post–thanks for the laughs!

      Thanks. My fics are all pretty girly, but they amuse me, so I enjoy writing. My link to sanity sometimes. I’m glad you enjoyed it!

    • Books read October-December 01/01/2024
      My goal was to read 120 books this year. I just finished number 129. (Some of these I reviewed as part of my WWW posts). October: Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt. I had high expectations for this book, as it had been so praised, and I felt let down by it. Still enjoyable, […]
