I am filled with winter ennui. I'm not down, just...blank. I kind of want to go on hiatus for a few weeks, but I don't think I can quite yet. Maybe early January. In the meantime, apologies if I don't read / write / comment / answer comments / flail / be generally entertaining / supportive / nice / mean as much or as responsively as I should.

It's not you, it's me.

Maybe I'll spend the evening watching the Log Channel and screaming whenever The Hand comes into view.

I thought you liked The Hand. Is it the same Hand as last year?

I know it's a crappy feeling. I've never experienced it myself as I have my Sims meanness to keep me warm, but I hope you feel plucky again soon.

*squeeze*

If I had a TezuOishi icon, I'd totally use it right now.

Here, I have one.

I've never tried this 'being mean makes me feel better' thing. Well I tried once and I failed. I'm beginning to think that it only works for some people.

I hate it when LJ + fandom feels like a job and it's all about responsibilities instead of fun and you can't just stop cos you don't feel like it anymore because people expect stuff.

I think it would be funny if I was going to do the mean thing. I'd be like Dan Taichi. "NO YOU'RE THE LAME ONE!" "NO YOU ARE!" "YOU!" "OMG SORRY I DIDN'T MEAN IT :( :( :("

Haha I should stop commenting and let you watch the virtual fire on the TV.

[livejournal.com profile] santa_smex reveals circa January 8th/9th? :)

It is not your job to be any of these. although it is lovely when you find the time.

winter. hm. it is odd, that the SAD effects remain the same even without the snow and cold.

[identity profile] shikishi.livejournal.com 2006-12-29 10:56 am (UTC)(link)
Nope. Sad though, huh?

Fandom starting rate should be at least 5.50 an hour.

Ah. see I have always been here in Maine, where the winters are supposed to be long and cold and dark. Do the Omegas 3 help? I have looked into one of those lamps, but the price is silly.

You can go on hiatus after you read my PoT squee *g*.

Hey, um. Even in the midst of ennui, you should probably check out the fact that I just wrote South Park Stan/Kyle (http://community.livejournal.com/chinkofairy/848.html) for Marks, because I'm hoping it never happens again.

I don't even have a South Park icon. It's completely ridiculous how often I say that.

Momokai south park would be awesome. Actually, all of seigaku south park would be great, like an awesome chibi episode.

Marks would freaking have a kitten if she came back and we had both written SP fic. *dies just thinking about it* I threw Butters into mine just for you.

ennui! ennuiiiiiiii!

We'll be here whenever you want to come around, angeline.

I'm feeling pretty blah, too, because the clouds keep making the sky grey here. But, *aims sunlight at you* the sun will come back sooner or later and send winter ennui fleeing for the depths of next December!

Did you tag for cat pics deliberately, sweets? Cos I have a tennis kitten on hand...

TV is good for this. Books are better. I recommend taking something good to read down to the cafe or the pub.

{{{Hal}}}

Let me know if you need to reschedule or just blow off our chat this week.

I was going to comment with some puns to cheer you up. But then I remembered you don't like puns. So I wrote this. You don't even have to reply to this comment, I just hope it makes you smile a little in the midst of your blah-ness.

To say that Box was annoyed was an understatement. He had thought and planned and angsted and finally decided that he was going to let his true love know of...well, his true love. It had been hard thing to do, made only harder that he decided to voice his confession in front of everyone else of akihabara@deep (except for Daruma who had left to change into a "super special costume"). And when he finished, did his true love rip the headphones off his head and come running into his arms?

"Sorry!" Taiko said instead, looking uncomfortable. "But Kaira's back and I'm kinda seeing her now."

"Oh," Box said. There really wasn't much else to say in the sudden silence of the office. He scuffed a toe on the floor and was struck by sudden inspiration. "Well, okay. You weren't even my first choice anyway."

Taiko blinked. "First...what?"

Box whirled and tried to look soulfully in the Page's eyes. This was difficult because Page had started twitching and fiddling with his glasses. "Page! I know I just said that I loved Taiko but I want you to forget that. Because you're really the one I love and there's a really good chance you're not seeing anyone so you won't break my heart with a the head goth girl of a fake cutter band, right?"

"U-u-uh," Page said, looking like his wanted to wrap his scarf around his head and hide.

Izumu got up from her corner and walked over. "No, he's going to break your heart with a hacker girl from a real troubleshooter agency," she said softly, putting a hand on Page's shoulder. Box's eyes widened.

"I-it's n-not pers-s-sonal," Page said, looking contrite. "I b-bet you'd b-be a g-g-g-great boyf-f-friend Box-k-k-un!"

"Does everyone have girlfriends now?!" Box shouted, his hands in fists. "Why didn't anyone tell me? I bet Akira is dating China-chan from the cafe!"

"No, she's not but since she says she's going to go professional on the girl fighting circuit, Akira's not a good choice. Plus, she'd probably beat you up half the time. So I guess everyone of akihabara@deep is hooked up. Well, everyone except..." Taiko's eyes widened and he pointed over Box's shoulder. Box turned around, his heart sinking.

A portly man stood in the doorway of akihabara@deep's office. He had on a knee-length wool coat and a striped scarf wound crazily around his neck. The normally flat hair stuck up in spikes all over. A pair of pipe-cleaner glasses sat on the man's nose.

"L-l-l-l-let's g-g-g-g-e-t phy-phy-phy-phy-si-c-c-c-cal!" Daruma said and then made a face. "Page! Your stutter is really, really annoying! I'm not going to do it, okay? You'll just have to pretend, Box."
