they call it [lazy] Monday

Today was not precisely lazy. I read a lot about rotting corpses and crazy people, and got some good news about a couple of projects I've had going. All of this is awesome because it's been a while since I've felt good about my work; it's even more awesome when I think that, a year ago, I was still quivering with exhaustion after my exams.

I was slouching around Photoshop tonight and it hit me that I haven't posted any black dog club stuff since November. So, here is some Finn:



He had tried to insinuate himself into my lap when I was working at my computer. The quilt is for purposes of warmth; the corner of the house where my desk is also happens to be the coldest corner of the house. Brrrr.

In other news: I'm in that vaguely annoying state where the muse is overflowing with ideas, but really does not want to commit to writing anything. I have an SGA fic-in-perpetual-progress, a couple of SPN things, a Bones/SGA fic, and they are all lots of fun to work on, I'm sure, but my brain would much rather keep the stories to itself. It won't even share them with me. *aggravation*

Now to return to the icons. The latest group is a vast improvement on what I came up with a couple weeks ago... I might even be able to update [livejournal.com profile] discolore three times in one month. THREE TIMES, PEOPLES.

.eta: drive-by rec! Taking Time Out by [livejournal.com profile] villainny. Lovely quiet SPN piece, featuring Dean, a rubber duckie, and a Castiel who's content to wait for the next thing said until forever came knocking.

EEEEEEWWWWWWWWWW - rotting corpses :-O

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE - big black labs!!!! :D

Re: your recalcitrant brain - would threats help? I could waive a metaphorical cricket bat threateningly in the air while promising pain if it doesn't cough up on the stories (especially the SGA/Bones one!!!) Just an idea. You know. In case it helps.

EEEEEEWWWWWWWWWW - rotting corpses :-O

Yes, that is what the fourth/fifth-century theologians I've been reading would say XD Only they say it in Latin.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE - big black labs!!!! :D

He is very big. And black. And labradorkish. And weird :D

Re: your recalcitrant brain - would threats help?

Heh, thank you, but I think my brain would stick its tongue out at you or be passive-aggressive or something :D When it's ready, it'll chain me to the desk and I won't be able to leave until I've finished whatever it's decided needs to be written RIGHT NOW.

*snort* So, automatically that makes them more eloquent than me!

Just as well. I realised I don't own a cricket bat.

And I'm far too laid-back to pull off threatening.

No, it just means I need about a half-hour to figure out what they're saying :D

*squashes you (and Fiiiiiinn!)*

Thank you, sweet.

Aw, I love the white on his nose :P *virtually pets*

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2009-02-24 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
He is very grey! It is all the stress and difficulty in his life XD

[identity profile] let-fate-decide.livejournal.com 2009-02-24 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, yes. It's so tough, lying around all day and then sniffing around outside for a couple minutes before coming back in and GOING TO SLEEP.

Sometimes I wish I were a dog...

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2009-02-24 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I would not mind coming back as a dog owned by a member of my family :D :D Our dogs have it pretty good.

*looks at black dog curled up in the chair*

Finn likes to think he is :D

[identity profile] kosmikdawg.livejournal.com 2009-02-25 08:44 pm (UTC)(link)
How old is Finn? btw...love his name. :)

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2009-02-25 08:46 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not entirely sure! He is a rescue dog with a somewhat spotty vet record before I got him, but the rescue and the vet both said he is around 7. I've had him for a few years now, and he started going grey when he was 4 or so.

*pets your black dog too!*

[identity profile] kosmikdawg.livejournal.com 2009-02-25 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
He's adorable! My ol' boy, Willoughby, is going to be either 10 or 11 this year. We're not sure since he's a rescue also. Have had him since '99. When we adopted him the SPCA said he was 4 months old (but he already had all adult teeth) So he was probably just barely a year old.

*pets Finn and sends doggie cookies*

Aw, snuggly Finn! He looks so adorable!

Finn says "I don't just look adorable, I am!"
