07:19 pm - some how or another

We had a big thunder storm Saturday night and it gently sauteed our poor modem into oblivion. Like, Comcast can see its but fucked if we can see them.

Probably unrelated, but this was about the time I had settled down for a nice talk with Becky about the thunderfrost special brothers. So that had nothing to do with it, I'm sure, but if so, joke's on Loki, I have Swype and a bad head cold, and work STARTED with an exciting round of "Just...stop dying on me, okay?" this week. if he thinks killing internet is going to stop me, well that's cute of him.

Anyway! New phone, complete with exciting discovery that win7 fucking hates talking to Android things. It has Swype as aforesaid, which I love without irony or restraint, or will as soon as I bend autocorrect to my will. So exciting.

Dawn and I went to Dog mountain on Friday except we accidentally another trail that added two miles to an already hilariously long hike, so that made Saturday super special. Dog mountain is like 2800 feet, and when we got to the summit I looked shudderingly down and found a nice bit of ground under a nice low growing pine to hide under. Dawn did not fail to tell me that was the most me-like thing she had ever seen me do. I really hate heights, okay.

05:58 pm - real post? not really.

Meg: I accidentally like five hundred words about a cat who may or may not be loki and also loki feeding his brother the apples of immortality while he was in the hospital and creeping tony out
Mer R: you're so predictable
Meg: I feel like I am justified because I live with a Norwegian Forest cat
Mer R: but you're not though

Meg: steve's theory is that if you call Thor a dim bulb in front of it and it takes your hand off, it's probably loki. tony is like what the fuck rogers. steve says there's certain things you can call a brother that you will have a shit over someone else calling them
Mer R: yes that is true
Mer R: and thor and loki are that kind of brothers
Mer R: who care about that kind of thing
Meg: like rhodey can call tony a limp dicked waste of air that should be sold for scrap metal but if steve tried that shit rhodey would break out warmachine


I've seen Avengers three times now. Probably the last before it leaves for the cheap seats and beer. Oh my god, do I need to watch this movie with beer. And heckling. So much heckling.

As it turns out Becky has FINALLY boarded the Special Brothers Train, which is extremely exciting / probably deeply worrying / I've been missing her online anyway so maybe it won't end in tears of horror yet. I boarded that shit in Thor Station, she waited until Avengers Central. We also may or may not be having serious discussions about the Sentai AU, which i refuse to put any more thought into until I can actually harass her online about it. Suffice only to say it's pretty terrible as it stands. (Of course Tony is already basically a Kamen Rider but ... shhhhh, it's Red/Blue anyway, it's obviously MEANT TO BE.)

Anyway, work has been workish, although last week hilariously featured me going to an appointment with I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE Resident and literally buying her a cookie to calm her down. It was a shining moment in my career.

10:20 pm - so anyway

1. Pictures later, I was the only one who didn't bring a laptop and so now of course my tablet is refusing to connect.

2. I apparently can match tequila shots with a 265lb dude. I weigh ... 195lbs? Yeah. We're Irish, bitches.

3. Besides blatant drunkeness tonight (I am writing this 5 tequila shots in) I have been watching the Avengers cartoon. I want the theme song so bad I can taste it. UGH IT IS THE AWESOMESTTT.

4. We went to Mirror Lake which was completely iced over and produced many dignified and beautiful pictures of me and Item 2 of this list falling on or through five feet of snowpack, but see Item 1.

5. HAWKEYE WHY ARE YOU SO AWESOME.

08:16 pm - avengers again

Went to see Avengers again with Dawn and Kitty! IT WAS AMAZING AGAIN.

1. After extended mature discussion I have decided that I am 110% correct in concluding that Loki is actually attempting to be -- if you will pardon my mixed metaphors -- Rio from Gekirangers with a magical villain princess staff he got from one of the Dark Cures that corrupts star seeds. So basically he's Avenger Black who probably did get the memo about what side he's supposed to be on, but angst, also his brother Avenger ... I don't know what sentai color Thor would be, because obviously Tony is Avenger Red except that would make Steve Avenger Blue, except Red's usually the leader except fuck this metaphor ... ah hell I'll make him Avenger Silver ... his brother Avenger Silver and he have Problems.

Obviously Natasha is Avenger Yellow, Clint is Avenger Purple and Bruce is Avenger Green.

ANYWAY he is Avenger Black who won't take his rightful place on the team because he hates everything, and he is corrupting everybody's precious star seeds because he needs a hug. Prove me wrong.

Go on, unsee it. I dare you.

1a. How much fucking hair product did Thor and Loki actually use?

2. Ugh everybody in that movie is amazing I love them alllll. Also fight scenes, they are the best.

3. KITTY HERE IS THE LINK TO THE FIC I WAS TALKING ABOUT: http://archiveofourown.org/works/398760 How Come We Play at War and Not Peace? Gen fic, where Tony is like six and Cap is ... Hobbes, basically. I freaked out.

12:55 pm - Uhhhh

So since I haven't been fucked to Wubi Ubuntu onto Darling yet, I am faced with the uncomfortable realization that actually, no, I DON'T know what the best Windows programs are any more.

I NEED:

1. RSS Feed reader, stand alone is fine, I kind of liked not having GReader.
2. Writing program. Oh shit, can I finally get Scrivener like the big kids??? (Anddd ... there's a beta version for Linux now. Ugh. Of course.) Obiviously there's LibreOffice.
3. I don't know, what are the cool kids using?

Dawn and I keep looking up and going AND THEN THERE WERE STEVE FEELS at each other. I dunno when we're going to see the Avengers movie again, but I'm sure it will be soon. Sooooon. And then when it goes to Theatres With Beer In Them, we'll go see it again and invent a drinking game.

Good crowd of people, lots of cheering and cackling.

And I have been up for like, twenty three hours now except for dozing off when they let us in the theatre at 10:45, so I am to bed. o/ Deffo going to see it again at least once, I think!

06:06 pm - GUIILLLD WARRRS and AVEEENGERSSSS

1. Apparently Mer legitimately asked Dawn what we meant by pregaming before the movie, because where she comes from, pregaming means drinking.

1a. It's like she doesn't even know us or has been in our household or ANYTHING.

1b. Yes, we are pregaming before the movie. Well, for me it's more like medicating before I'm surrounded by a million people, but we are going to Applebees in our classy as shit Marvel gear and eat dinner and drink like weasels before we get in line.

1c. We are 110% pure class.

1d. FINALLY, AVENGERS.

2. I think it was Diane Duane in Spock's World who posited a MMORPG made for telepaths where the person in question got um really addicted, but playing Guild Wars kind of made me remember it today.

2a. I'm kind of enjoying it, although I am strong in the derp. Basically I click all the things and hope something hits.

3. AVEEEENNNGERRRSSSS.

4. Watch this space for feels!

04:46 pm - new computer -> uninstall bloat

I love making major computer purchases because I wander gently into Office Depot or whatever, and by the time I wander gently out again, I've left some poor bastard staring after me with his brain shattered in pieces all over the sale floor. "But ... don't you WANT McAvee?" "No, it's stupid and it sucks." "But ... don't you want Microsoft Office?" "No, I use Open Office." "But ... don't you want the warranty?" "No, I'm going to dual boot Ubuntu and void it anyway." "Dual ... boot ...?" "Yes, you partition the drive and it boots separately." "But ... would you like a mouse? or a flash drive?" "Why?" "..."

I suppose I could go to Frye's or whatever instead, but it amuses me to make young men suffer agonies of doubt over their tech dicks.

He tried to find out if I had an Office Depot card, and when that failed, if maybe my company had one. I laughed in his face and said I didn't work in an office. "IT, then?" "Bro, I am a caregiver for Alzheimer patients." "...oh."

Good times, she says, peaceably. Good, good times.

Anyway, he's a new Toshiba Satellite (I really like them) and right now his name is Darling, which is after Arthur from Inception. I'm kind of mixing fandoms because the external I got is named JARVIS, haha. Right now we're playing FUCK YOU NORTON I DON'T WANT YOU, which is a fun game and I hate it extremely. Need to grab a bunch of stuff, of course, but that's my project for the night.


We went down to Cosmic Monkey because a promotional guy was going to be there with Avengers swag. Rene, Dawn and I were all wearing Marvel shirts (Dawn had her light up arc reactor one, I had a Marvel vs Tokidoki one where Iron Man is bench pressing monkeys ... don't ask .. and Rene had a generic Avengers one) and were the only ones who vaguely dressed up. There were about four other people, so the guy threw shirts and posters and pins at us and made Dawn, Rene and I take a bunch of pictures. Thank God, he was obviously thinking, It's girls! Girls in Marvel shirts! I can turn these in and my boss will be like, excellent! BOOBS.

06:55 pm - (fic) (stxi) (pg) Circle Yes or No ( the Doctor, Doctor, Just Give Me the News Remix)

TITLE: Circle Yes or No (the Doctor, Doctor, Just Give Me the News Remix)
SERIES: Star Trek XI
PAIRING: Kirk/McCoy
RATING: PG ish, only there's Winona in.
WORDCOUNT: 1015
NOTES:

I'm really sorry for this.

Also this is probably the only time you will ever see me writing Jim/Bones even in a gen sort of way so uhhh enjoy it? I really feel like Bones Knows Where That Has Been and he doesn't want it Anywhere Near Him, also that he understand that there are people that Jim is charming to and flirts with etc, and people with whom he has long term relationships with, and he'd rather have him around for a long time. It's not even a settling thing! It's just that he'd rather be Jim's friend instead of someone he fucks.

Granted, Jim would tap that like the fury of a thousand thousand woodpeckers, but he's pretty cool with having Bones as his BFF4Lyef.

Anyway, you should probably go and read the original by Brighteyed Jill, it is a lot better than this. ._.

( I got a bad case of lovin' you )

Also it turns out I was right and a lot of people apparently just skimmed over it until they got the author notices. I ... don't know how I feel about this, but I think mostly flattered?

This is sort of for Daunt, she posted about having a bad day when I was trying to decide which fic I should remix (the original author does mostly ... mirrorverse stuff? so I was stuck for a while, because yeah) and so I thought, I'll write Jim/Bones, and maybe it will cheer her up that some random person was thinking about her. So hi! Not creepy at all, I hope!

10:58 am - may cause brain herpes in otters

1. Federal return came! WHOO!
1a. This means that Spock finally can go for the long rest, if by long rest you mean the next time Mom comes up he goes with her for the grandrats probably, or Patti, if she needs one.
1b. SO WHAT DO YOU ALL THINK I SHOULD NAME THE NEW BOX BECAUSE I WANT TO NAME IT SOMETHING AVENGERS OR XMEN BUT MOST OF THEM SEEM LIKE HORRIBLY BAD LUCK TO NAME A PIECE OF ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT, I MEAN, 'OH IT'S TUESDAY, TONY IS DYING AGAIN. FUCK.'

2. Randomly we were derping around comic shops yesterday and saw Children's Crusade was out in hardcover, which lead me to the someone inevitable conclusion that somewhere, somehow, Erik Lehnsherr should be sitting around one day, answer a knock at the door, and discover the daughter he didn't know he had is shoving his twin grandsons into his arms, like, MOM DIDN'T WANT US TO BE RAISED AROUND MUTANT SUPREMACISTS BUT UHH SHE ALWAYS SAID YOU'D HELP US IF WE NEEDED IT. SO, HERE. I NEED YOU TO TAKE MY CHILDREN. And while Erik is going 'wait, us?' and 'wait, what, what', she runs off.
2a. The conversation with Charles kind of goes 1) So then I had twin infants 2) Well, I did think it was good of Magda to say that at least 3) Yes, I am sure she was my child, she was a mutant and also she looks exactly like my mother plus she left the documentation 4) No, I don't expect you to raise them, I just thought you'd know how to do it 5) No, Charles, I don't actually think you are literally a lending library.

So yeah. Name ideas? I'd love to name it Erik or Charles or Tony, but that just seems to be asking for it. So I'm kind of thinking Pepper or Son of Coul? IDK, guys, IDK

Also the thought of transfering all my files and shit is pretty much making me want to never switch computers, ever again, so there's that. Ugh.
