sloooow work day
But productive in a completely pointless way, like hand-writing most of another scene of the auction fic, and discovering awesome websites, such as:
fuckyeahfanficflamingo. My favorite so far:
Ohohoho funny cuz it's true. *recalls purchase of 300+-page hardback circus encyclopedia...*
Also, Dear Blank, Please Blank. One hilarious example:
Dear Mario,
Bowser has kidnapped your girlfriend at least 10 times. Why in the world do you keep inviting him to go go-carting with you guys?
Sincerely,
what the heck man?
Anyway, must be off. Cleaning my apartment so my mom, my sister, and I can pretend I'm not a slob when they get here. Maybe I'll MacGuyver a way to keep the nephew from opening all the low drawers and cabinets full of yummy cleaning supplies.

Good luck cleaning up! I have to do that tomorrow, but today, eh, still in pain, now have an excuse not to.
no subject
Well, it went okay, unless I'm forgetting something I meant to do (likely). Have you heard from the doctor about your tests?
no subject
I'm sure you did great. Probably better than my room will look even after I work on it tomorrow. Well, it was kind of a roller coaster; I got a phone call around 9am telling me that I had a high white blood cell count, so she was concerned that I had some kind of infection; I went and got an x-ray around noon, which is always fun; and then there wasn't anything wrong based on that (ie, no infection) so she's thinking herniated disc, but she wants me to get an MRI to make sure, and also because there doesn't seem to be any kind of cause for it, so. I'm doing the MRI on Wednesday.
no subject
Oy, yeah, that sounds frustrating. Well, no infection is good. And hopefully the MRI will help figure the rest out.
no subject
A little frustrating, but I'm getting some pills so that'll hopefully help.
no subject
That's good. I'm sure they'll figure it out soon.
no subject
*sigh* I hope.
no subject
It'll be okay. Hey, you know what? I used your "It's like Las Vegas without the class" line the other day- got a big laugh. :)
no subject
Hah, I don't even remember what that was about. Was that Blackpool?
no subject
Yup. In the interview with artist!Claude. We were talking about Miami.
no subject
Yeah, that sounds about right. I feel bad for ragging on Blackpool so much without ever having been there, but it amuses me.
no subject
Aw, well, I think Claude reserves the right to make fun of his hometown. And that would be a right he would exercise, without a doubt.
no subject
Oh, Claude would definitely take advantage of his right to make fun of his hometown.
But probably also send money back for improvement projects on the DL, just to help out the other confused young people.no subject
Exactly.
Indeed. And just see Claude catch anyone but him make fun of Blackpool- always a bloodbath.no subject
Awww, Claude. I bet he gets an, ahem, hero's welcome any time he goes back home.no subject
Heh, you know, I'm really torn on whether or not Claude has family in England or not. He stayed in America after the Company, but one could argue that's proof he's trying to protect his family as easily as that there's no family for him to go back to. We never found out what relation if any he had to Lee and Abby.no subject
You know, strangely enough, I think that Claude probably had at least a few really decent people in his life early on, and some of them were bound to be family members. For all his cynicism etc, he does seem capable of trusting people and being pretty loyal to them (or at least he was before Bennet). But he still had a pretty crappy life otherwise, in a pretty crappy place, plus he was probably young and stupid and one of those "run away and never think about it again" type of guys (I mean, he still is). As for Lee and Abby, I absolutely cannot believe that he would be willing to risk everything and get that attached to anyone after Peter and everything else that happened in S1 without there being some prior connection to them. So. Yeah. Claude totally has family, that he probably feels some affection for, but it was just easier to avoid thinking about them because going back would probably make things worse for everyone.
