I can't sleep and I'm not in love, but I can't speak without messing up...

[allfireburns]

I did find my notebook. It was under the printer, when the last time I saw it, it was... on top of the printer. I am so not amused, but I have it now. So that's good.

I need to find something to write. Or to plot my big bang story - I need to find someone to bounce ideas off of for that, because I still haven't worked out the major conflict. ...Besides the absence of the Doctor, which is, granted, kind of a big deal. Rrrh.

I thiiink I'm going to make myself some coffee, read some of the Children of Time nominees so I can vote... And then I will catch up on my tags, and probably post Sam into the Rift because I haven't posted him in a while, and I miss him. Gwen too. (I will resist the urge to post the Doctor, because the combination of him and any of my other main characters in a multipup post just leaves me swamped, invariably.)

Here, have a meme, because everyone else has done it and it's only fair to reciprocate...

Reply to this post and I'll assign you a letter.
List (and upload, if you feel like it) 5 songs that start with that letter.
Post them to your journal with these instructions.

yetregressing gave me K. So.

Keep Breathing - Ingrid Michaelson
I want to change the world/Instead I sleep/I want to believe in more than you and me
This is one of Grace's songs. Grace before she came into the Rift, mostly, but yes.

Kill the Messenger - Jack's Mannequin
I had that dream again where/I was lost for good in outer space/Tell me, Doctor, how to shake/A waking nightmare that is only worse when I am sleeping
I've had this song forever - got it off a Roger/Mimi fanmix ages ago, and at some point it morphed into a Casey/Dana song in my head, and now... I know it belongs to someone, but I can't work it out. I don't know why I love it so much, I just do.

Knees of My Bees - Alanis Morissette
You are a spirit that knows of no limits/That knows of no ceiling, who balks at dead ends/You are a wordsmith who cares for his brothers/Not seduced by illusions of fair-weather friends
Doctor/Donna song. It doesn't even have to be romantic, it's just THEM. All over.

Komm, Susser Tod - End of Evangelion
It all returns to nothing/It all comes tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down
It's suicide! But it's happy! ...yeah.

Kyrie - Mr. Mister
My heart is old, it holds my memories/My body burns a gemlike flame/Somewhere between the soul and soft machine/Is where I find myself again
I got this off a fanmix with all the Doctors - this was the song for the Eighth Doctor and it is just perfect for him.

And hey, since they're around and all uploaded already, have the playlists for a few of my characters:
The Tenth Doctor
Toshiko Sato
Gwen Cooper (hasn't been updated in a while)
Jack Harkness
Sam Tyler

If you ever need to bounce ideas, I'm here and save an hour of quality time with my dad, I'll be online all night. I'm aware of the importance of bouncing. I actually just had that last night and I hadn't done it so long and it felt so good. If someone else can understand the giant mess of plotbunny in my head, then maybe that means I can write it into a coherent story!

Thanks, dear! I might pounce you for that later, once I've had coffee and food and my brain is functioning a little better. ^^

I might also have to spaz at you a little, because I signed up for the big bang, and now I'm going "AH, WHAT WAS I THINKING, WHYYYY?"

Even though 20,000 words really isn't that long - not even as much as NaNo, and I've got several months to do this in. So long as I can get the plot worked out, I can totally handle it, just... GAH. Intimidating much?

You're always free to spaz. I'm due for a good Aubrey-spaz. I took one look at big bang and was like "yeah, hi, that's not happening for me". I know what I'm totally not capable of. I shall stick to my drabbles and stories under 1000 words, thanks. (Except for those not-drabbles and stories over 1000 words I'm writing, but not the point)
