My babies recently turned 10 and 13. I can't believe it.

Zoe likes Hello Kitty, Minecraft and talking on the phone.

Keyanah likes Adam Lambert, Teen Wolf and Minecraft. And when I say she is into Teen Wolf, I mean she is really into Teen Wolf. She's got stories she reads on Wattpad and friends she chats with on Deviantart.

Time has passed so fast with them.

Monday is back to work. Um, yay? I guess. It's weird to be laid off so long and then back to work for about 8 weeks and then laid off for Christmas. Then back to work in January until June.

Wow, no post since Feb. Bleh. Too much Tumblr for me.

Though i'm not as frantic about it as I was at first. I don't feel like I must see every post that was posted since I last looked.

Let's see

Me
Off work for my usual summer lack of work thing. Might have to get a job since I don't go back until September and we have hella bills. Might try and find something at night since anything in the daytime is basically paying for the childcare i'd have to get. Just the thought of working at night, having kids in daytime is making a nervous breakdown seem possible because when do i sleep? Taking care of kids is a job (easier when they're 9 and 12 but still stuff that has to be done) but no one (read, my husband) seems to realize this.

My dad had heart surgery last week and asked if he could come up here (we're in different cities) to recuperate so I said yes and he's fine. So after he goes home next week will fill out some applications and see what happens. I wish I could win the lottery for a few thousand but I need to play the lottery in order to do that.

TV
Teen Wolf- At this point i'm watching so I can keep up with Fanfic and gifs. My 12 year old watches and is super into it. She talks about it and wants fanfic and is writing some of her own fanfic. In one of her stories, Scott has a twin sister. Or is it Stiles? I forget but I found that so cute. The only advice i've given her so far is to split the story up into readable paragraphs. We're hilarious

Hannibal- Into Hannibal big time. Loved the S2 finale. Really happy they're getting a S3. It's the best horror show on TV. Just bought S1 a few days ago for 12 bucks including shipping (half.com). So rewatching S1. So many clues I never caught. Got some fanfic ideas for Hannibal. 2 are AU's. One is a short fic of what happens after the s2 finale.

Vikings-I need more. No more until 2015. Booo.

Penny Dreadful- Yes. This is good. Love it and the characters. Even Dorian Grey. Everyone is betting American Cowboy is going to be a werewolf. I think they might be right. I like Dr. Frankenstein. He's a trip.

From dusk til dawn- Really psyched they made this a TV series. Loved it. Loved them creating a new vampire mythos. The guy playing Ritchie. Wow. Guy playing Seth channeled George Clooney. Already know they're going to have a 2nd season. (Having Robert Rodriguez own/run the channel it airs on is a good thing)

Dominion- New show on Syfy. Trying to give it the old 3 episode try but the main guy is kind of whiny. Giles accent. Whoo boy. That was a mess in the Pilot but i've always said you can't judge a show by its pilot.

Can't wait for Dr. Who.

I watch a lot of gory/fantasy stuff. Heh.

Um, what else.

Discovered Dr Pepper Vanilla Float. Omg. So good

I don't care for Transformer Movies but this new one. DINOSAUR ROBOT. It's all I ever wanted in my life. I feel like it should be something Syfy has already done but I don't think they have.

Mark Ruffalo is on tumblr and the biggest mystery is how did he snag the name:markruffalo. Hee.

( Story )

Someone emailed me because the link to this was down. I wasn't sure if I ever posted it to LJ or if I did, that I tagged back then. I was tempted to rewrite some of it, but I believe once a story is beta'd and posted, I leave it alone. ETA: This story is 10 years old. Omg. *Pulls out rocking chair. In my day...*



Title: Five Things that never happened to Brian O’Conner
Author: Kellygirl
Rating: R
Disclaimer: Characters are not mine, no money being made. No infringement intended.
Spoilers: Based on Fast and Furious so only spoilers for that movie.

Summary: There are a lot of ‘Five things that never happened’ stories out there in different fandoms like Smallville and Buffy. It’s kind of like an alternate universe type idea. So the idea is not mine, just the story it helped produce.
Notes: Big thanks to Dirty Diana for the beta. This has been done for awhile but my brain kept pulling me in other directions.
Feedback: Any and all appreciated greatly.

( Story )

I feel very blah today. I was going to tell a story about socks but I changed my mind.

Anyone know of any scary books for teens? K is 12 and wants some scary books. She watched the first 3 Scream movies with one of her friends and all of sudden she's into horror. She mentioned Stephen King and I was like 'um,let's wait on him. Start you out with someone else.'

She said she didn't like Goosebumps books but any recs are welcome.

Catching up on Nikita. I'm up to April of last season. Shit is Cray in Division.

Let's see. Saw an poster type ad for Hannibal which comes back end of February. Tag line was 'Embrace the Madness.'

Between it and Teen Wolf's 'Lose your mind,' I'm going to need some alcohol.

Anyone else that watches Teen Wolf like and despise Peter Hale at the same time? Like I want to see what he'll do next and as a villain he fascinates me, but if Lydia or one of the others wanted to kill him again, I'd be okay with that. It's weird.

Christmas is almost here! I think I'm done being excited and just want it over with.(grinchy gif here)

Got a message for K's school about them having a code yellow and locked the school down because an armed robber was in the area.

K told me a few weeks ago they had a code red drill. I told her when I was in school, we had fire and tornado drills but no code red. She was amazed.

Code red is to try and prepare them in case of a gunman gets in the school. Right now Z's school has a buzzer where they have to let you in after they ask you why you're there. And then you come to the office with you ID.

Sometimes I just want to wrap them in bubblewrap and never let them out of my sight.

My writing fu is just...bleh. I have several WIP's and one or two that are almost...almost done, but I just don't feel like writing. Though I want to write.

Off to bed!

Realized I had two Day three's. Went back and corrected that.

Watched Fast6. I didn't cry but then I watched the first look at Fast 7.

Anybody watch the end of Leverage? I stopped watching about a season and a half before it ended. Did it really end with a nod to Hardison/Elliot/Parker?




Our heating unit (HVAC) quit last night. Very cold night. Hubby said it was a tripped breaker and he turned it back on but it turned itself back off ten minutes later. I smelled burning when it first cut off, so after the first time we left it alone. Got someone to come and look at it. They charged $99 to just come and do that.

Then the guy said several parts of it were shot. Repairs would cost about 2500 or we could talk about a new one all together. Guy got the owner of the company to come out and talk to us and it wasn't as bad as me or Stacey thought. Over five thousand but under 10 thousand. So hopefully we will get financing and they can get it done in the next few days. The owner offered to bring us some heaters from his shop. We told him we were okay for tonight.

So everyone is wearing fuzzy socks and sleeping with extra blankets and we have the stove on.

Fingers crossed!

Watching Grimm. I love this show.

Almost Human- I heard it's getting the Firefly treatment from Fox. Showing episodes out of order.

Sleepy Hollow- Omg, I love this show. It's campy and scary and doesn't take itself too seriously. Orlando Jones is a fandom treasure.

I'm behind on NCIS but not NCIS L.A. Hetty is the best cockblocker in history.

Shield- I like it. It's missing something but I like it.

Scandal- This show is crazy, crazy with a nice chewy underlayer of crazy.

AHS:Coven- I stopped about three weeks ago. It seems to go more on shock and gross than anything. I really wanted to watch Angela Bassett but she wasn't on there enough to keep watching.

Behind on Nikita. Still recording it but I have about six eps from last season that I still need to watch.

K had her test today but did not break her board. She wasn't the only one and they get to redo that part of the test next week. I think she was hitting it with the wrong part of her foot. I want to be there but I don't know when they'll do it. Their Master said it'd be in front of the other kids but not when. We told her she'd do it next time and to just practice.

Time to wash this coconut oil out of my hair. Night all!

I decided to try and post for 10 days straight.

Hubby's present just came. Amazon is on the ball. I ordered from an Amazon affilate on Monday. He's been wanting this 1938? 1934? something Watkins cookbook. So I tracked one down and ordered it.

Zoe just came up to me and said, "Hint, hint. My favorite candy in the universe is Sweet tarts. Or Sour patch kids."

She's so crazy. We have most of their stuff bought already even though they just wrote their Christmas list's about two weeks ago. The stuff we go matches some of the stuff on their lists. They both are into American Girl Dolls now. Do you all know how much one American Doll costs? Answer: Very much.

So I showed them some other similar dolls and talked about all the awesome accessories that you could get. So two dolls apiece are in layaway plus some accessories like clothes, purses, little dogs for the little dolls.

Hubby goes nuts doing Christmas shopping and I have to try and rein him in. Guess what 12 year old is getting a Lego jabba the hut palace? For a minute I thought he was going to grab the Lego Millenium Falcon too. He admitted he was reliving his childhood through K which I found funny, but yes, I do it too.

Also he mumbled something about flat screens for the girls' rooms the other day. *eyes hubby*

Okay, off to make some cole slaw before picking up the oldest at tae kwon do. She's got a test on Friday where she must break a board to get her blue- black stripe belt. Then there are three more until she can test for a black belt.
