vanillafluffy: (Turkey)
Tonight, turkey is the protein du jour. (Thighs, baked.) Still plenty of rice to go with it, and mixed veggies. Or maybe some diced 'maters and corn. Decisions, decisions.

I need to get some laundry going. I need to...everything, basically. Last night, I went back and reread last year's entries at this time, and it seems like I was making progress. There's no sign of it now; it's all been reclaimed by clutter.

As I read somewhere lately, I've gone from epic!fail right to apocalypti!fail.

Also, I'm aghast that it's Thursday evening already...the week has melted away---I haven't walked, or been to the library---although I have made some calls for J about dog training. (It may not make me any money, but at least it gives me something I can put on my resume under "What I've been doing all this time".)

Got an email from AI about a job-seekers workshop in T'ville...I'm weighing cost versus benefit and am still undecided. Luckily, it isn't til the first week in February. (I know I haven't been talking about this much, because it's so tedious, but I'm getting a little desperate---I have GOT to get a real job, soon.)

==============================

ETA, I went with green beans. That's another can from the stockpile disposed of!

vanillafluffy: (Nutcrackers)
Title: Candlewish
Fandom: The Catch Trap by Marion Zimmer Bradley
Authored by: [livejournal.com profile] vanillafluffy
Pairing/spoilers: N/A
Rating/Work-safeness: General, G, Green
Approximate word count: 5600
Disclaimer: All rights belong to Marion Zimmer Bradley, I'm just playing on her swingset.
Summary: Set five years after the conclusion of 'The Catch Trap'. Suzy is turning ten, and her family and friends have gathered to throw her a memorable party.
A/N: This is my [livejournal.com profile] yuletide contribution for Christmas 2010 for Kali. I was really thrilled when I got the assignment, because The Catch Trap is one of my favorite books ever. It's set in the 1940s and 50s, and it features a family of circus aerialists, and one of the most angsty, low-key slash pairings ever---although that isn't addressed here. It's just my little follow-up to where the book left everyone....

It's a terrible thing to feel like a failure at nine years old.... )
