misscamI've seen this meme go around on my friends list, and I found it kinda amusing, so...
If my life were a fandom...
a. Who would the 'shippers pair me with?
b. Who would the slashers pair me with?
c. What would a Mary Sue in my fandom be like OR who is mostly likely to be turned into Canon Sue?
d. When did I/when will I jump the shark?
e. Write a one sentence summary of the story that would win the Best Fanfic Award in my fandom.
Meanwhile,I'm struggling with finding a good name for Legolas's mum for Nocturne. Names are hard things indeed. I thought of something like Taurwen (Forest-Maiden), but I'm not all that happy with the sound of it. I wanted something to do with forests or trees in her name, just like Legolas's name has. (I like to play around with names - the last chapter of OFUM - which was updated yesterday if you missed it - had an invented Sue name in it meaning 'Horror Elf'. Of course, hardly anyone actually notice such things, but it amuses me.)
Being stuck on that, I wrote a little Boston Puclic (smut) drabble for my own amusement. (Tis here). The show on just as I get home usually, so I tend to watch it while reading the mail/newspaper. I sometimes also catch the end of The Bold and the Beautiful, where apparently incest is the theme of the month. Fun for the whole family!
And I was quite amazed when watching a foreign affairs show yesterday - Bush was holding a speech for some reporters and he was doing this little slide show and he was being funny! I actually laughed (he was showing a slide of him looking for something in the Oval Office and said 'And here I am looking for weapons of mass destruction - nope, not there!'). Okay, I've laughed at Bush before, but that's been when he hasn't intended to be funny. Intetionally funny Bush makes Camilla laugh. Hmm, I wonder if the little demons in Hell are donning fur to keep the warmth yet...

We do keep losing governors to Washington...out of the last, mmm...three, we haven't gotten a full term out of them. Two went to ambassadorships, and the last was just finishing out the term left by the other. ARGH.
