babble for the win

So... Life = busy. Brain = very much back and forth...

WIN = We saw Eddie Izzard on Saturday in SF and he was SO AWESOME! I never go to live shows of anything but this was great, definitely money well spent.

FAIL = My husband is now older. Which means that *I* will be getting older, too. I'm somehow more bummed about this bday than any other one I can remember. Probably because it;s been hard to see what exactly I've accomplished in the last three years...

WIN = Hellboy 2 was great! I have high hopes for the Hobbit.

FAIL = I have been working and working and working on this stupid shopping cart for my website and I *hate* it. Every step has involved about 4 hours of work I didn't schedule for. Today had 9 tasks. I accomplished one.

WIN = Been sleeping better, getting up earlier, getting to work, getting things done.

FAIL = Cramps. I mean, not the worst ever (no crying or vomiting), but no picnic.

WIN = Deciding today was a tiara day. Because life is just better when you're wearing the princess crown.

FAIL = I really want to start writing the next fic in my brain but I am SO SCARED to begin. Why? I'm not sure. Because the ideas aren't very fleshed out yet? Because writing anyhting long scares the bejesus out of me? Because I hate WIPs? Because the pressure to get the next chapter out gets to me? Because real life is crazy-busy and will be for the next month at least? Because I don't have a beta and really need someone to brainstorm with?

All of it, I guess.

Anyone wanna volunteer for chatting and/or betaing? Pretty please? With nakedsexyboys on top?

(I want to leave the plot as surprise, but I will say it's JA/JP, JA/JDM, set in at a university. More humor/smut than angst, overall.)
