Hey, this is mostly for those of us not doing NANOWRIMO this year (like me!).

THE CHOCOBO RACES THEME THIS MONTH IS SMALL FANDOMS. And for the ITTY BITTY FANDOMS (hey kids, this includes Vagrant Story) GO HERE AND LEAVE A PROMPT AT LEAST. Teams get points for prompts (as well as fills... which are megapoints)! If you're not already on a team, I ask that you please leave stuff for Team Tonberry, as they are the underdogs right now (I'm on Cactuar, just saying). Your prompts may not get filled (I mean, I left a Final Fantasy Unlimited prompt, I know this will not get filled as the only people I know that have seen that anime are ones that I made watch it as I ah, kind of own it). Or you could fill all the FFIV prompts I left in the October post mwhahahaha.

Also, after seeing this wonderful group of old lady poets do readings on Saturday, I've been writing poetry again. They'll show up on my ficjournal, so if you're watching it I apologize now. It's been a long time since I've been in the mood for poetry, so yeah.

Trying to finish my [community profile] megaflare_ff story, which refuses to gel properly. But I will write it, dammit, it's only supposed to be 5000 words and it's about SHERA. Originally it had Reeve too, but I changed that to Tifa, because she just fit better into the framing story. Sorry Reeve.

My main problem has been time. I have none. Perhaps over the holidays? I'd LOVE to get the next chapter of The Edge of Glory finished. :/

Oh and I have started some Tai Chi, and it is great and thank you for any suggestions you left for me. I will probably start up yoga later, as I am RIDICULOUSLY out of shape and it will take a while to get my joints and muscles to behave (don't let my being thin fool you, I get winded on stairs sometimes, ok?).

Also goals this weekend:

- Major progress on either Breath of Fire III or Metal Gear Solid, depending on which I get stuck on first.

- Sew something! I am in the mood to make a jacket (perhaps my Snake from 999 one?) or a skirt/jumper. I have the fabric for a skirt or jumper, and no fabric for the jacket, so the latter seems more likely.

- Cook some squash soup! I have a nice collection of squashes now (I love how long they keep), and a nice variety of curry spices and stuff.

I'd get in on this if I weren't so goddamn picky about Vagrant Story fic. :\ And if I wasn't up to my eyeballs in writing Warcraft meta.

I've seen Unlimited, btw. I just thought it didn't work, since we already had a Final Fantasy anime called Escaflowne. XD

squashes keep for a really long time if you store them right (make sure they don't get rotten basically). some of them actually taste better and sweeter the longer you store them. i love squash soup :D
