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![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
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![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
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.

Your New Girl fic sounds AMAZING!

I would! I have been awful about finishing stories the last few years, and then every Yuletide I remember how much I enjoy actually finishing things and promise myself I'll finish more stories . . . and then I totally don't, because I stink, but this year I MEAN IT! Maybe.
And I am really struggling with the end of 30 Rock, like, I really kind of believe there will never be another show that makes me laugh that much and turns out to be as truly emotionally satisfying, particularly all the Liz stuff over the last couple of years, from this moment forward.

OH MAN I WOULD BE SO PSYCHED IF YOU DID NOTHING_HIP AND FINISHED STUFF! I love your fic so much, dude. I am trying to brainstorm with myself ways to motivate us to finish stuff even beyond the challenge, I will probably make a post to the community asking for ideas.
AND YES, THAT MOMENT FORWARD, when things changed for Liz!!!!!!!! LIZ LEMON GETTING A HAPPY ENDING IS SO WEIRDLY OVERWHELMINGLY EMOTIONALLY FULFILLING FOR ME. Like, I feel genuinely teary about the show ending. It's so amazing too, because for awhile there in the middle I was so frustrated with how the show just beat up on Liz all the time, but now she's got the Disney prince husband and two kids she wanted (AND OH MY GOD THE KIDS, how brilliant was that) and I seriously just want to cry forever.
