Some Funny Things, Some Random Things....

Last night, someone accused me of plagiarizing myself.

I have an ff.net account, and the nickname is different. It still says in my profile that this is my LJ, and there's even a freaking picture of me right there. But I got an angry PM ranting at me about how this person had read a lot of the same fics on livejounral by 'someone else', only they were 'a little different and definitely better' and pointed out that I'd kept some things the same and they were going to report me for stealing someone else's stories!

I responded by pointing out I was the 'someone else' on livejournal, and the only editing done between LJ and ff.net was language and sex. Those were taken out to comply with ff.net's rules.

I haven't heard back yet.

Sylvia cosplay isn't going to work out for this con. But that's alright, I have a super secret cosplay that will be. That no one will recognize, but I don't care. All I will say is this: my god it's pink, and my god I'm going to have so much jewelery.

I managed t hit Joanne's right as they were having a massive bead sale. 40 percent off all bead making supplies. Last night I made a hairpiece involving pearls and pink stones and ostrich feathers. Yes, this is for my cosplay.

Has Livejournal stopped giving advance warning about paid accounts? I'm used to getting the '12 days, 7 days, 5 days, etc' warnings. Not just 'tomorrow your account expires'. And since this was yesterday, today marks the day that all of my RPG accounts are back to basic. I'm slowly getting to used to the lack of icons - Tamaki's still the hardest. I just like a bit more warning. :/

This morning, a tiny elderly woman came by to invite me to a semi-religious get together on Easter. She was very, very nice, and explained at length that it didn't matter what religion you were, all this gathering would be for would be to remember the life of Jesus Christ, as a man and a teacher. I thanked her very much, but I'm going to be out of town. Still, I think it was very nice and I like how she stressed it wasn't about religion, it was about a good man who lived a very long time ago and changed history.

This weekend I plan to work on cosplay, work on [livejournal.com profile] damned stuff, and hopefully finally adjust properly to these pills. Working good, but there's still that period of weirdness when I first take them.

Somehow I think the randomer might be a tad embarrassed to respond... :P

Oooh... your cosplay is exciting me... there must be pictures!
and props to the lady- I'd be so interested in seeing how her evening panned out.

I hate it when that happens. I've seen it happen before, and it's always like "Jeez, how much effort does it take to do a little research and find out it's the same person!" O_O It's not as if your LJ isn't listed on there, if you're interested in sharing your stories! Thankfully it's never happened to me, but I've known writers who have had it happen to them. Man, some people are stupid.

The person's probably realized they're an idiot, and are too ashamed to reply back. Good riddance.

How strange. I think the above is true and they're too ashamed to reply.

Sorry to hear about your rp accounts. I got a ten-day warning on a fanfic exchange comm I mod today though, so I guess they still send them out at least sometimes.
