Oh, the miscellany!  
Dear fandom,

My power went out today. That meant I couldn't work, work on fic, or watch an episode.

Woe.

I napped. This is always a very dangerous thing for me, as naps typically result in me staying up half the night and getting all messed up with my internal clock and stuff. Bad bad bad.

I had a conference call at 5 PM and fortunately my power was back on so they thought I was all totally prepared. I am a genius in my bullshit faux preparedness.

Now, the important part of this post.

If you were perhaps out skipping down the bunny trail with Peter Cottontail on Easter weekend, or, as another possibility, obsessively watching for new stories about the new Obama puppy or #amazonfail, you may have missed that we have a new fandom challenge over at [livejournal.com profile] qaf_challenges!

Or some of you may not have missed it, but been frightened off by it, as it's not called "The Clusterfuck Challenge" for no reason.

But rejoice and relax, both! The challenge really is not all that complicated. You pick the theme you like, and what you want to make -- fic, icons, meta, etc -- and you sign up. If you want to do more than one thing, you list them in order of preference just in case we get ten bazillion people signing up to do meta about Justin's perfect ass or Brian's bulging biceps and we want to spread it around a tiny bit more. But mostly you'll get whatever you sign up for, and if not, we'll talk to you first!

See? It wasn't that scary, was it?

Now, go get clusterfucked. I swear, there's something every single one of you can do in this challenge, yo! Lots and lots of people have signed up -- even my dog has signed up!

Love,

Xie

Doesn't it suck when you electric is out. Mine was out yesterday from 7:00 am until 5:00 pm too due to bad weather. I did not nap at all since I am not a napping preson but I did read, write (by hand) and wrote out some of my Advanced creativity course assignments. Well I had to do something, I could not go on the computer or watch tv or a movie. LOL!!!

I saw the post about the new challenge. I will sign up as soon as I can think about what I want to do. I will be knee deep in the Atlanta Film festival the rest of this week and part of next. But I will sign up for something fic wise since i do not do graphics. :)

Hugs
Pat

Losing power sucks. Is it insanely windy in SF? I was only half joking about being afraid my dog was going to blow away when I let her out.
