*I FIXED MY TABLET.

*I FIXED MY TABLETTTT

*every bone in my body says LIVESTREAM TOMORROW

*Signed up for [livejournal.com profile] spn_j2_bigbang! I got my first choice with a really great-sounding story, and my author is super nice and friendly! And most of the other ones I was interested in were claimed by super artists, and i'm already looking forward to seeing the end results @_@ (There were SO many excellent-sounding stories; my first narrowed-down list was almost twenty summaries long, and it was all sam/dean. You authors have outdone yourselves!)

*If you are an artist for the bigbang, there is an art beta post at [livejournal.com profile] omgspnbigbang right here. Sign up as a possible art beta or bookmark it for later! I've never seen a thing like that, and I think it's really cool :3 I have signed up offering my beta services for, among other things, "advice on genitals and butts and realism of positioning" Jesus, I shouldn't leave serious comments when I'm giddy, lol.

*Not signed up for enough bigbangs? This may ameliorate your low bigbang levels:


Sign ups open Sunday, May 5 for the first round of [livejournal.com profile] wincest_bigbang.
A fanfic and fanart challenge dedicated to the Winchester family!!!
Schedule
Author Sign Ups | Artist Sign Ups


Signups start today! but I accidentally signed up a few days ago because I'm a dork, haha.


*I love summer-themed commentfic/art memes! Here is one that just started:


I think that's it. Now I'm so emotionally exhausted I need a nap, lol. MY EXCHANGE ART. MY LANGUISHING WIPS. MY DIGITAL PAINTBRUSH. I'll have to keep messing with traditional, but man. adsfikhja;sdf

I hope you live stream when I'm around, I've missed you! So happy you've got your tablet sorted, I've become quite attached to mine so can imagine how bereft you felt...

I hope so too! I'm sleeping in little three hour bursts, so I don't know when I'll be around. Sometimes I'm too tired when I get up to do anyhting but lay in bed and read, haha.

I'm happy too, thank you! It was a sad thing, seeing the frayed and mangled cord for three weeks T__T

I bet it was! At least it was something repairable. I'm trying to decide whether to take my tablet to Rome next week along with my laptop - I think I have to as I have so much art to do now! Meep!

Congrats on the tablet and your first choice! I got mine as well, but haven't been contacted yet. *bites nails* Looking forward to another Livestream from you, they are very motivational! :)

Thank you, and congrats on your first choice too!

I'm sure they'll contact you soon. The dust is still settling on the claims, and the mods haven't even put up the reveal post yet, or the instructions for authors to contact their artists. I think there are a lot of new bigbang writers this year, brought into fandom by the addition of SPN to Netflix last year. (I am one of those! lol and I know several other people who are too.)

I look forward to livestreaming! oh man, i bet i'll get stage fright again, pfft.

I did! soldered it and everything. I lost a few feet of cable, haha--my cat was nomming on it for quite a while before he chewed through. But so far it works again! :D

You have until May 26 to decide on the Wincest BB, so maybe things will have calmed down at work by then and you can decide :) Oooh, reversebang! I may have to do that one, too. Now that I have my tablet back I want to do ALL the bangs!

You are an electrician at heart my dear. what's a few feet of cable between you and your art..

Too late, I gave in and signed up [livejournal.com profile] dephygravity and [livejournal.com profile] geckholic are my dirty enablers on twitter tonight. lol Thanks for the link, I am usually out of the fandom community hook ups since I hide from the drama. lol

Haha, you got enabled! I look forward to that one. I hope it goes over well :) I jkust kind of wish artists got six weeks instead of a month to complete their art. I don't know why it's always a month!

My favorite job ever was as a projectionist working at a theater with old, worn out projectors. I had to learn on the fly how to fix a lot of problems with them. I also got to walk around with a toolbelt and a walkie-talkie, wearing work gloves. I felt awesome, lol. Plus, I was the only person in the upstairs of the theater, in the big, dark echoing space that was as big as the whole bottom floor of the movie theater. I also got to stay up until 4 or 5 in the morning, on the clock, watching the movies I'd put together to make sure I didn't make a mistake when I spliced the separate reels together. It was amazing.

LOL Well, I hope my wbb comes out fine because long fics are great but very time consuming and a lot more plot planning than pwps. lol I can do it though, I've done 2 spn_j2_bb's. Now to think up a suitable story... puts on my thinking cap.

I had a friend who was a projectionist before the dawn of digital media. I loved going up with him and watching him work, putting on those giant reels, splicing things, and fixing the machines. Now they just press a button and bam, complete movie with no fuck ups, unless it digitally glitches. I can't tell you how many fwb bjs I gave in that projection room.. Ooops TMI. ;)

"Advice on genitals and butts and realism of positioning." Oh man, we are going to get along beautifully. Haha Just stopped by to say, now that the reveals are posted, everybody knows how incredibly fortunate I am to have you doing the art for my story. I'm so lucky and so excited! And YAY for fixing your tablet!!! Is there anything you can't do? Hope you get that nap. :)

<3!!! It's gonna be such a fun project!

Haha, my comment. I almost want to edit that comment, buuut I guess I'll leave it /o\ Enough people have asked me about it through the years that I might as well offer to help in that area *_*

haha, I'm embarrassed that I offered--I'm not an expert at all! lol--but I have had people ask me before for advice on it, soooo *coughs* I figured I'd just put that out there.

Bwahaha, your area of expertise. You ARE good at it, though, so. XD BUT. MORE IMPORTANTLY. YAAAAY FOR THE TABLET!! \o/ That's great. :D

I'm glad you fixed your tablet! I didn't get as much time to hunt through boxes as I wanted and the ones I did get through didn't have the spare one we have. Would you still like it for a back up or should I seek elsewhere to pass it on to if/when we do find it? -hugs-

Date: 2013-05-07 07:58 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] badbastion.livejournal.com
If you find it, I would really really love to have it as a backup. My tablet's fixed ~mostly now--there's some weird short that happens every once in a while, but I can live with it. But I've been using it almost every day for 7 years, and I have no idea how much longer it'll last. So yes, that would be the kindest thing if you do find it! <3 *hugs*

From: [identity profile] raindropreverie.livejournal.com
I'll let you know when/if I find it after I've gone through the rest of the boxes still sitting in the bedroom. My girlfriend is all for supporting a fellow artist. <3 I just wish she still had confidence in her art. ;-;

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BB's tablet is back! *jumps up and down* I have missed you, your beautiful work and the LSing. Of course, I have been out of town and missed the first couple, but hopefully I'll be able to catch the next one. So very happy for you, Sugar!
