carmen_lj: (ordinary morning)
I have decided that this...this thing is sucking the life out of me. I will not hate it though, no, we will be friends and it will give me words and we will both be very happy together till death. Its death. Bloody dissertation. I have 150 words left today and then I will feel as though I can Meet Targets by slowly increasing them each day, yes. That is the plan. Today's target tis/was 500 words. It is a good number, yes.

I watched The Long Twilight Struggle today, possibly my favourite season two episode of Babylon 5 for the superb speech that G'Kar gives in the council chambers. This is my own wee memorial to an actor who gave life to my favourite character in Babylon 5, an alien who was never a cypher, but a complex, living, breathing person that I never ceased to believe in. Not even in Legend of the Rangers. Andreas Katsulas was smashing at what he did, yes.

I need a nice proper G'kar icon.

And some time ago I made a not entirely sucky fanfiction cover for Orphans. But Photoshop is no longer working as a distraction. I think Pressure is getting to me. I can go and get a cup of tea, but I can't properly stop work unless I've just woken up or am planning to sleep. Which I'm not. For a few hours anyway. Yarg. Sadly, this has led to an increasingly stupid number of hours spent on OG. Which cannot be good.

Fretting

carmen_lj: (a funny romance)
I fell asleep. At entirely the wrong time. But waking up was horribly terrifying. One moment nothing. The next alive and asleep and not having a clue where I was at or why. And it wasn't like waking up at all. None of the between waking/sleeping confusion. Just a total blank on how I got there.

Luckily it passed within ten minutes, but still all rather disconcerting, yes. Hrrm.

I have lost a cat. The weather is terrible and the cat with the Horrible Injuries (she had a fight and something tried to take her throat away, but she's been treated and is spiffy and recovering now - bizarrely her injuries have made her much more friendly and less jumpy at people) is inside and sleeping at the fire. But others are MIA. Outside. In the rain. And the cold. ::frets:: At least one of them is somewhat allergic to the outdoors, so I am all concerened, yes.

There was a post on the B5 comm for about a second that said Andreas Katsulas was, um, dead...I am now fretting about that too. Know he is ill and all, but yes...::frets::

Today I managed 284 words on the dissertation. They are mostly unrubbish.

The Andreas message is back. ::is sad::

Um, there is no link, so shall continue to possibly pretend not true just now, yes.

ETA: Ah, it's on Sci-Fi Wire. He died yesterday. Age 59.
