fic pointer, soccer, work, to-do for the weekend

hp_rarities has had its reveal. I wrote a pinch-hit for [info]opheliet:

Inebriation
Lily/Sirius (main), Regulus/Sirius. NC-17. ~4,300 words.
Lily would hesitate to call Sirius Black her first love. She would call him her first, most magnificent fuck, maybe, or her first experimentation, but if it came down to it she would deny any sort of emotional attachment.
Pay attention to the heavy adultery warning!


Soccer/football. Quarter final yesterday:

Germany : Portugal
 3 : 2



Who would have thought??? I totally didn't!

After the match, all of Berlin was a huge party zone, partying, singing, drunk fans clogging the streets, blocking traffic and public transportation. It was... amazing. Our victory in Monday against Austria, a meagre 1:0, had been very disappointing, so to see us return in this manner and win against Portugal was... god. Just great.

[ETA: Just watched Croatia-Turkey, and holy cow, we're up against Turkey? Fucking hell. I'm scared of what'll happen on Wednesday at the semi final! Berlin has a huge Turkish community, so... Eep.]


Work: is making me unhappy. I don't like our four new people at all. I feel like they're looking down on me because I'm only 19, and sadly they aren't people of intelligence; that I feel kinda superior makes me feel bad, but I can't help it. They say stuff about things that are a) ignorant and b), in response, make me defensive about my own beliefs. I don't think they see me as someone who can actually have a somewhat informed conversation about any topic of importance, and that makes me both furious and self-conscious. Bah.


To-do for the weekend:
  • go through the spn_j2_bigbang fic (of 66K!) I've been sent to work on
  • Snupin fic: write ~1.5K; find beta
  • Wordlessly (aka the SPN fic o' doom): post-beta edit #1 of part the first; bring up overall word count to 8.5K (+ ~2K)
  • riding!AU (Snupin): edit; bring up overall word count to 7K
  • J2 AU Summer Love Challenge: write plot outline


Plans for the weekend include: watching the other three quarter finals and going to the FĂȘte de la Musique, one of the greatest music festivals happening all over Berlin. Which essentially means half of my weekend cannot be spent working on write-y things. :(

WAH SUDDENLY FANDOM IS ALL ACTIVE AGAIN AND THERE ARE FESTS AND OMG I'M SO BEHIND ON EVERYTHING AND I AM. SO. NOT. MOTIVATED.

At least I have Thursday and Friday off from work, though I don't think any catching up is going to happen.

To-Do for May:
- hp_rarities pinch-hit
- Dark Side of Snape/Lupin fic(s) - one is written, two more bunnies run around in my brain
- j2_spn_100days fic #1
- miscellany that should have been finished ages ago: riding!Snupin, the threesome fic, the other Weasleycest fic
- beta!?
- write up beta request post
- write up list and organisation-like stuff for seekrit projekt

That should cover it for now. At least May is fairly quiet at work... :)

in these heavenly flames i have already scorched in...

MADE OF FAIL: Coffee. No, seriously. I drank two and a half cups yesterday in roughly 30 minutes, and its effects? NONE.

MADE OF WIN: Sleep. Ah, how I love thee! One night of fourteen hours and one night of twelve hours, and I feel like a new person.


In other words, Sweet Charity is over. Next time I will so spam y'all with adverts and bully you into participating, you should already be shaking in your boots!


To-do-list:
- try and reach 5K (of a really really REALLY rough draft) for the riding!Snupin, now newly with title;
Zokutou word meter
2,086 / 1,989
(104.9%)

- go through beta'd version of [info]erotic_elves Spring Challenge fic;
- possibly look at finished first draft of [info]hp_wankfest fic and figure out whether it works this way or not;
- work on new [info]100quills sign-ups;
- CLEAN ROOM. Possibly vac whole flat lower floor; upper floor is done. Very important;
- read more of Inkdeath by Cornelia Funke;
- weasel way out of visiting aunt/uncle/little cousins. Would otherside cut into all other activities as listed above;
- post the links to all the fics that need to be linked at challenge comms to challenge comms.
