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.

Hello you! Wow it doesn't seem that long ago that you said you were interviewing! Congratulations! Isn't it cool to earn money??? (she says, on a government volunteer stipend) And that is so awesome about your thriving social life! I've had that a little bit this year, and even a little feels awesome. Also you should tell us about boys.

Funnily enough, this week I started applying to a (teaching) job in Louisville! It's a long shot, though.

I would LOVE to watch your Lou/Mary/Jack/Liz/Ron/Leslie vid, needless to say. That would. Yep.

You cannot initiate an LJ renaissance without posting more!!! Illegal!

I know, right! It all happened really fast, I feel like I told you I was interviewing and then got the job like that week and was moving three weeks later and my whole life picked up crazy speed. EARNING MONEY IS THE MOST AMAZING, I am still shocked at it, like I want to get my paycheck all in $1 bills and roll around in it. Health insurance! A 401(k) like a grownup! Ten years of poverty has made me way more money-grubbing than I used to be!

Oooh, social life! It seriously is great, I want to hear all about yours too, you should post! Or email me! Or I shall email you! AND OMG A JOB IN LOUISVILLE! Haha you would right after I moved. But I go back there all the time! We could hang out! Are you applying at the Latin school by any chance?

I have totally been thinking of you every time I think about that vid. Also I can't believe Tina and Alec say Liz and Jack are like Mary and Lou in a way to try to shut down shipping, DO THEY NOT SHIP MARY/LOU? Hahaha.

POSTING MORE IS HAPPENING, BELIEVE YOU ME.
