08:13 pm - Blocked
Anyone have anything really smutty to recommend? I am smut-blocked again. I need to get really amped up to write this one scene, and it is NOT flowing. Everything I write is awful, truly. At least it seems that way to me.

I really need to fix this somehow... Maybe my next project should have more smut so I don't get so blocked writing it?

04:44 pm - SO ANGRY
*RAGE RAGE*

I hate the social security office.

That is all I have to say about that.

That, and I am ANGRY.

06:53 pm - Help!
I am calling on my intelligent, well-read friends list to help me here.

What do you call the medieval version of pants/trousers/breeches/ect? Basically, what would a 10th century AD man wear on the bottom?

This is obviously a matter of life or death.

Death, I say.

...

Why does no one believe me?

10:56 am - I Gots an Owie
Ugh.

This weekend could have been wonderful, but instead I was holed up in my room on my bed in pain. Why? I was coaxed into a swim race with my brother in law on Friday, and I went all out breaststroke.

I haven't gone all out since high school.

Pulled Trapezius = Muscle Spasms = OWIE

Damn, back pain is a bitch. You use your back for everything.

On the plus side, I got a lot of writing done (albeit in my notebook). Now that I'm feeling marginally better (I can sit up) I can hobble to my 'puter and transfer things. Expect some crap from me soon!

07:54 pm - Niiiice

Your result for The Harry Potter Wand Test...

11", Ash, Phoenix

You scored 32 wisdom, 44 bravery, 16 emotional, and 22 martyrdom!

An ash wand signifies growth, balance, and protection. The phoenix tail feather as your core means that you have the capability to be an extremely powerful wizard or witch and that you will defend those you love at all costs.

11:26 am - *HEADDESK*
OK, so you may be wondering where your drabbles are. (Not that I expect bated breath or anything.) So my computer crashed again on Monday, and Hubs is diligently trying to fix it. So the drabbles are mostly completed (except for the Kenshin one, it has turned into a monster - sorry Ravyn!)

Hopefully it will be done soon so I can have time to type away furiously again. My muse is trudging along, and while the stuff isn't my most brilliant, it is at least something. And I have a lot of new ideas for stories... hopefully after I finish the old ones. Yeah. We'll see how that goes!

10:56 am - DONE
All done with Surgery!!!!

*Trumpets Blast*

And now onto Psychiatry. I love my new rotation. Delving into the psyche is fascinating. My love for it has nothing to do with the fact that I new work 2 & 1/2 days a week. No it does not!

*whistles innocently*

Now that I have all of this new free time, I want to start writing again. However, my muse has been as dry as dust this week, and I think she needs a wee boost. So I am announcing a...

Drabble Challenge!

I will write a drabble (length unspecified, depends on how inspired I am by your prompts) for the first 8 people who write in a request for the fandoms listed below. Don't be shy! If you want little ol' me to get to writing my stories I need a shot of creative juice.

Fandoms
Books
Harry Potter
Pride & Prejudice
Persuasion
Sense & Sensibility

Movies
Star Wars (movies only)
Labyrinth
Indiana Jones
Batman Movie-verse
Highlander (TV show too!)

Anime
Ranma 1/2
Rurouni Kenshin
Fruits Basket
Sailor Moon
DBZ
Gundam Wing

Random
Greek Mythology
Robin Hood
King Arthur

I'll try to get these done by tonight/tomorrow morning :) Glad to be back people!

09:28 pm - JOY!!!!!
OMG.

I just need to take a quick peek here to tell you the fabulous news.

I passed the USMLE!!!!!!!

I just about threw up when I found out. Dry heaved into a trash can while my best med friend cried :)

Thank you, thank you for all of your support. You guys really kept me sane in a high-stress period of my life and I couldn't be more grateful. I'll try to check in more often!

04:40 am - Surgery. And More Surgery...
Soooo... Some of you may be wondering where I have been for the last month or so. (I hope so anyway!) And, the astute of you may be wondering what I am doing posting before 5AM. Is she insane? Is she an insomniac?

Nope.

I'm on my Surgery clerkship.

I scheduled my surgery clerkship first because I knew that there was no way I'd ever want to be a surgeon. EVER. I am just not dexterously skilled enough to make tiny, tiny stitches laproscopically without breaking a sweat and to make confident decisions about what artery is what when I only see a few inches of it.

So, on the plus side, I am enjoying myself more than I thought I would. On the negative side... yeah. This Comic pretty much sums up my life right now. Here is a bit of my schedule:

3:30 AM - Wake up. Dear sweet Jeebus, I have to wake up
4:45-6:00 AM - round on patients, frantically write notes before residents get there
6:00-8:00 AM - see same patients again with residents and learn why your plans for them were WRONGWRONGWRONG
8:00-9:00 AM - Hopefully eat second breakfast. If not, go to the Operating Room.
9:00AM-4:00PM - scrub in and retract various body parts for Attending surgeons until you want to pass out. Get grilled on things like a Pancraticoduodenoectomy with en bloc Splenectomy and choledocojejunostomy with gastrojejunostomy and portal vein resection and repair. (We actually did this. It took 8hrs, and I didn't eat from 4AM until 4PM). If I am lucky, I get a lunch break in here.
4:00PM-6:30PM - Class. Try not to pass out or get called on to answer questions.
7:00PM - get home, eat dinner, "quality" time with Husband.
8:30PM - My dear, sweet bed. Or, if on call, sleep on crappy hospital beds and get awoken at 1:30 in the morning by the trauma pager, run to trauma bay, and sleepily ask if they have ever smoked, drank or used drugs.

Rinse, Lather, Repeat. For the past 3 weeks and for another 5 more. *sob*

So, I've not been writing so much. Mostly because I am too tired. There is some downtime between surgeries & such, but I try to actually study a little so I don't look like a complete moron in front of my attendings.

I am actually having a surprisingly good time, but I attribute that to the people I am working with, who are lovely. (For the most part.)

If I wasn't just so damn tired all the time... But never fear, this is the hardest rotation, and it is all downhill from here :)

Anyway. Off to work.

09:52 pm - Moving Adventures
Ahhh... One week since I took my board exam and I am finally feeling a bit more like myself and not like the stressed out basket case I was for the past few months.

Anyway, Hubs and I moved into a new place two weeks ago, and now that I have been able to help clean up, it's starting to look like a real home. Which is amazing, considering that it was a box fortress a few days ago.

On the writing front, I have been less successful. I could not get much off of my hard drive after it crashed, so most of what I had accomplished during my boards study time is lost. Gah. On the plus side, I have some stuff in my writing journal but I haven't had time to transfer it to my computer. I'll get around to it soon. (Hopefully)

Another big time sucker is my Hub's new hobby. He now has an obsession with making almost all food from scratch. It's actually really fun, as I love baking, but it is very time consuming. I feel very gourmet!

05:02 pm - The First Letter Meme
Copy and paste to your own journal, erase my answers, and add your own. Use the 1st letter of your name to answer each of the following questions. They have to be real places, names &/or objects, nothing made up! Try to use different answers if the person you got this from has the same 1st initial. You CAN'T use your name for the boy/girl name question. And Have Fun With It!


1) 4 LETTER WORD: ... uh, Vage?
2) BOY NAME: Victor
3) GIRL NAME: Vanessa
4) OCCUPATION: Vet
5) A COLOR: Violet
6) SOMETHING YOU WEAR: V-neck sweater (lame, I know)... does Velcro count?
7) BEVERAGE: Vodka :P
8) FOOD: Veal and Venison
9) SOMETHING FOUND IN A BATHROOM: Vanilla Lotion, Vaseline, and a Vanity Mirror
10) A PLACE: Venice
11) REASON FOR BEING LATE: The Valet Vomited in my Volvo
12) SOMETHING YOU SHOUT: "Veni, Vedi, Vici!" (Almost too easy)

That really was harder than it looked. Especially the 4 letter word and something to wear.

09:54 pm - OMG So TIRED
Done. I'm DONE. I just want to fall asleep. Or giggle incessantly. Maybe it's the two glasses of champagne and the bottle of Reisling I just drank. Or maybe it is because I finished the goddamn USMLE step 1!!!!!!

WHEEEEEEEE!!!!

I'll probably post when I'm less tipsy tomorrow. I don't care if I passed. I just care that it is done.

10:10 am - *Hugs F-List*
Thank you all for your wonderful support last night. My panic attack did last until about midnight or so, but then I was able to calm down enough to get some sleep. That is way better than my last panic attack which kept me up all night. Hopefully I don't have one during my test. That would be very, very bad.

I am trying to decide what to do with myself today... To study or not to study? Cramming helps (a little) but I need to really chill out so I can be on top of my game tomorrow. i think I'll study until about 3-4PM or so and then I will try to relax. Has there been any good fic out recently that I can read to calm me down? Any relaxation tips? I think I really need them...

Anyway, I love you guys!!!! (points to icon)

And I'm glad I'm an elf... They are so pretty! Although I am not impressed by my physical score of 0% however... I do work out!

Your result for The What Middle Earth race do you belong to Test...

Elf


You're an Elf! You scored low in size, high in morality, high in aggression and high in intelligence to get here. The first and favorite race created by the Valar, the Elves have been in Middle Earth for many ages, and are currently the only race allowed to join their creators in Valinor. Blessed with eternal life, enhanced senses, great beauty, wisdom and skill, the race of Elves still has several black marks on it. (Kinslaying, anyone?) But hey, no one is perfect, right? Of course not, but the Elves are damn close to it.

FYI, your polar opposite is the Troll.

OMG.

OMG.

I am going to FAIL.

Seriously, I am in the throes of an extreme panic attack now guys. I'm tachypneic, feeling extreme heart palpations, flushed, and perspiring like I'm menopausal. I don't know what to do. I know NOTHING. Absolutely NOTHING.

Kill me.

09:30 am - Taking a break from my regularly scheduled studying to bring you...
FANGIRL FRIDAY!!!!

I thought of many ways to structure this post, but I think the best way is from the perspective of my fangirl past. I’ve been reading fanfiction since I was a wee fanbrat of 14. (That was a long time ago. Reading fanfiction via dial-up was NOT a pleasant experience). So, without further ado, here is Vashka’s fangirlish evolution!

This Way To the Fics! )
