You're going to make it after all.

HELLO YOU GUYS, guess what, I wrote a yuletide fic and I'm going to link it now even though it's almost February and I am ridiculous:

Another Dime in the Jukebox for tearupthesky (LOLOL REMEMBER HOW SHE GOT ME TWO YEARS IN A ROW, I guess what goes around comes around?????) -- Jason Sudeikis/Kristen Wiig. Saturday Night Live RPF. PG-13, no warnings. 3000 words. Kristen didn’t tell him she was coming back for the Christmas show.

This was a terrible year to sign up for yuletide because I totally got a job and moved to Madison, Wisconsin in November, soooooo yeah, that is why I've been so MIA around here and also the rest of the internet for the last forever. Why do new jobs/apartments/friends take up so much energy?!?! It's pretty sweet, though, I am getting paid money and it's a pretty cool job and I am making friends and there's even a boy I like, which hasn't happened in forever. Basically:



(P.S. I am totally rewatching the Mary Tyler Moore show right now and it holds up DISTRESSINGLY WELL. Also I keep wanting to make, like, a vid juxtaposing Mary & Lou Grant with Liz Lemon & Jack Donaghy and Leslie Knope & Ron Swanson, because talk about direct descendants, especially Liz/Jack. Maybe someday [after retirement?] I will have the time to do this.)

Fannishly, I have 6000 words of a New Girl babyfic written (post that episode with the fertility nonsense), and like 1500 words of a Go On fic written, but who knows if I will ever finish anything ever again. (Is Anne from Go On the greatest character ever or what? Discuss.) Also I am having a lot of emotions about 30 Rock ending and I have the same Boom Guy feelings re: The Office as everybody else (SOMEONE IS WRITING FIC, RIGHT? The Office feelings in 2013 ARE UNSETTLING).

Today I started toying with the idea of resuscitating nothing_hip with once-a-month songs to try to get myself to finish something -- would anybody be in for this? (It's a fic challenge community where as a prompt I upload an awesome but not cool song, usually Top 40 pop kind of stuff, and then you write whatever you want. Will there be One Direction songs? PROBABLY.) LET'S DO IT, LJ RENAISSANCE AMIRITE.

Hee. Well, you know the story Nick starting writing in the last episode about Julius Pepperwood the noir zombie detective and his plucky assistant Jessica Night? I was thinking, what if Nick kept going to Jess's writing class? And what if he actually got a bit better at writing and wrote and submitted that story? And Jess had to grade it? I don't know, I want to try to write some different stuff this year, so I was thinking I might try to write that. Bad genre fic with a cute framing device basically? I want to know about yours too!

Yeah, I feel almost more than fannish about 30 Rock? I can't believe it's actually going to end!

OH MAN, that sounds SUPER GREAT, I would be so into that! I couldn't believe that he wrote Jess into his story, ugh, adorable! And I love creative framing devices like that, such a good idea!

Hahaha mine is horrifically self-indulgent -- basically, it's like, what if Jess got anxious enough about having a baby that she wanted to have one with a sperm donor, and Nick found out and offered to be the donor, and then they have this baby together but everybody thinks it was an anonymous donor, and Jess and the boys are all kind of taking care of the baby together and then she and Nick fall in looooove, haha, you know how it is. ALSO they might bang to make the baby, I feel like Nick would be outraged at the price of the sperm donation procedure when you can get knocked up for free. :P

I can't believe 30 Rock is ending either! It feels like the end of an era, what are we supposed to do without Liz Lemon?

Uh, horrifically self-indulgent is my first name, and that trope is one of my my favourites oh my god, I would read the hell out of that!

I don't know what we're supposed to do! At least there are a lot of other amazingly funny women on TV now, but I will still pine for her, I'm sure.
