i got me for life
May. 21st, 2016 05:12 pm1. I've been doing a thing for the teacher and fandom aspect of my life and thanking one person each day for the month of May. It's a way to kind of send a crap ton of good karma out into the universe [and hopefully it comes back to me]
2. Teaching is seriously one of the most difficult jobs ever. Parents are on my case right now and I've read some terrible e-mails and I just don't want to deal with them.
3. My classroom and house continue to be a mess. I need to just sit and organize but I'm a serial hoarder and I'm so damn lazy - a terrible combo tbh
4. Weight is still a problem - a daily issue I struggle with. Clothes don't fit, tears have fallen, and I'll still reach for the calorie laden foods
5. I think I'm going to die alone, which would be fine on a normal day, but I've felt so cripplingly alone these past few weeks, it's terrifying right now
6. I don't even know how many people read this anymore - 1, 2? And even less comment. Not helping my feelings any. This goes for all aspects of social media. It's a dangerous world out there - always comparing my numbers to others, my comments to others, my feelings to others, my friends to others. It's playing with my mind and comparison/jealousy is the root of all evil, I swear it.
7. My birthday is Wednesday and while I usually make a big deal of it, I'm really just wanting to close the door on the world.
8. I have passport shit to deal with because I somehow lost mine. I am such an idiot, seriously. They want you to prove citizenship but I became a citizen under my dad because I was less than 18, and I don't have an old passport to prove it hence the reason I'm getting a new one! Plus it's costing so much money. And the reason I need a passport is I'm going to Kenya this summer and I'm not looking forward to it too much for a few reasons
9. I feel like all I do is give, and don't receive anything in turn. And I KNOW that I don't give all of myself to get stuff, but a little recognition or appreciation would be amazing.
10. I needed a nice even number for this haha. I am so behind on EVERYTHING. I need to prioritize again, it's getting to be a problem. I ask my students all the time 'what are you choosing to do instead?' for late assignments and such, and for me? I couldn't tell you.
Okay that was my word vomit of the day. I hope you're keeping well. And if you read all that? You're a rockstar.
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?

Five years should have been enough time to get over Jared. Jensen finds out that it doesn't even come close. (Alternatively, the one where Jensen is a tattoo artist and Jared has one hell of a sweet tooth.)
Sexy and intimate and hella perfect

During the Nerd HQ Panel at Comic-Con, Jared talked about his feelings of 'letting people down, not being good enough...' You think Jensen can let that just go?
Tender and achy and amazing

After his break-up with Sandy, Jared is doing fine. He doesn't need to rebound (like Chad thinks he does) and he isn't falling apart (like everyone on set thinks he is). He has his dogs, his job, and Jensen.
This was such a SOLID fic - had everything you could want in your traditional non-au <3

♥ the Gentle Descent Into Ruination by

Cleaning up the streets is a tough gig, but Detective Jared Padalecki has always had a strict moral code to fall back on, to help him make the tough decisions. Jensen is his criminal informant, and has proven time and again to be Jared's one exception to the rule.
This was such a delectable fic. Sexy and intense!

Rookie mistake number one: the sheriff should have put the handcuffs on a notch tighter. (Or, how I spent my summer vacation, by Jensen Ackles, serial killer.)
Gritty and feral and miles away from my usual fic I love, but DAMN R has a way of drawing you in no matter what.
♥ Sing the Praises by
![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
Long story short, being in a long distance relationship sucks (not that that’s surprising, Jensen realized it really, really would approximately ten hours after Jared left for college hundreds of miles away).
Fantastic - so much conveyed without losing any of the sexiness.

Feb. 9th, 2016 09:35 pm- Just bought this *facepalm* like I need another shirt, but seriously love it haha
this is why i have money problems...
Feb. 8th, 2016 09:12 pm-so boy cancelled on me yesterday. He didn't give a reason just his mom. Keep in mind this is the second time he's cancelled (the first time I had almost reached the place to meet). He texted me today saying 'i know you mad at me' (let's not even get INTO the grammar right now)
I responded with long texts explaining how I'm not mad, but disappointed, and that this kinda proves I'm not up there on his priority list. And he was like 'i get it and it won't happen again I'll lead by actions not words' and I was like 'uhhh you DID lead by actions - you didn't come and you used your pretty words to butter me up'. And then he was like I gotta change I know and I told him to do it for him and he responded "and our future" and right now? I'm not really seeing a future. I KNOW I'm being harsh. But seriously?! TWICE. And not even a proper explanation.
Okay rant over. REMINDER: GO TO

FEBRUARY - month of loooooove
Feb. 1st, 2016 09:22 pmOkay so a shortened month wherein I shall endeavor to post every day. I've been feeling crappy since yesterday and did most of my teaching sitting down today, WHOOPS.
So, I've been kinda talking to this guy for the past 2-3 months. He's sweet, but idk, I'm not FEELING it you know? But man, he was so sweet to call me twice yesterday to check up on me. He asked to call me tonight and I said no because well I wasn't feeling like talking to anybody. I feel terrible for doing that, but not enough to call him?
IDK, I feel like I read so much romantic stuff in fandom that when it kinda happens in RL I'm all *rolls eyes* which is dumb.
ANYWAY, I don't know how to tell if this thing is GOING anywhere. Advice?
love yourself
Jan. 30th, 2016 05:43 pm- I MISS YOU
- I need photo op ideas because I see the boys in TWO WEEKS. On Valentine's Day no less!
- Been reading Stiles/Derek fic NONSTOP lately and I feel like I'm cheating on J2 :/ haha I STILL ADORE THEM!!! [like when they post pics of each other or you know mention the other] We have the cutest boys, guys.
- Did I mention I miss you? I need to revel in here a little more I know <3 And I also know I say that every time *facepalm*
Hey everyone, I'm asking for your help. Want to be a permanent coder or a sub for spnnewsletter? We need YOU!
(I have copied and pasted most of this from waterofthemoon because she is awesome :D)
The coders are the people who actually put together the spnnewsletter every night for the joy and edification of fandom. We take links from all over SPN fandom (handily compiled into one reading list), regardless of... most things, really, as long as they meet our header guidelines. It's not a recs list, and it's not like some other newsletters that code only a representative sample of fics/art/etc. Just code the stuff in front of you.
While modding/previous community involvement is preferred, it's not required. Do you have:
1. Basic, basic HTML skills. (Can you make a link? Can you make a username?)
2. Ability to understand, enforce, and live and die by the laws of the land.
3. An hour or less one night a week to compile the newsletter. Currently, we're trying to get a list of people willing to step in as need be.
4. If you are even considering signing up, please make sure you are for sure available and willing for the foreseeable future.
And we will HELP. There's a template, there are all kinds of useful tricks to make things go faster, and we offer on the job training services. Plus, you get to be part of the most useful club in SPN fandom. Win win!
If you have questions or are interested, please e-mail me at enablelove@gmail.com!
All you ever did was wreck me

The newly crowned King Jared has achieved a goal he has sought his entire life. But his deepest desire has not yet been met, and he's starting to wonder if the pledges he and his Elf exchanged will no longer hold now that everything has changed.
Sweet, sexy, and utterly perfect.
