So, I occasionally read those online horoscope thingies for kicks. Yesterday told me that today, my trails would start early in the morning. This morning I wake up around 4:30 and need to use the bathroom. I'm half asleep, I only turn the nightlight on. Lo and behold, the toilet was plugged up and I didn't notice it. Flushing + Plugged Up Toilet = Fey's Bathroom Flooded. It's 4:30 and no one is awake, and we don't have a plunger in this bathroom. I'm pulling down towels to sop up the floor and desperately trying to find a plunger. Bear in mind this is 4:30 in the morning and I was doped up all of yesterday. The search for a plunger fails and I am in need of still more towels to dry the floor.

Now I am faced with a quandary. My folks are up at 6:00 usually and my sister a half hour or so after that. But it's almost 5, and I can't just leave the toilet with water up to its brim. So I stumble back into my room - literally - and dig out paper. I write a note and intend to tape it to the bathroom door. I can't find any tape. I'm in tears at this point because I don't want anyone coming into the bathroom and making the same mistake I did and I can't think how to stick the note to the door. It takes me about fifteen minutes to grasp the idea of just leaving the note on the toilet. I'm not all that bright in the morning.

Luckily I was still awake in my bed when people got up, and I was able to rush out and warn them, and get the plunger from my parents bathroom to fix the problem before anyone used the bathroom. I think I'm going to spend the rest of the day in bed.

I was honestly surprised at that result. I'm one of the people that he annoyed! Of course, the right up makes him look like a pretty good result

FeyFey is bored.

I should be working on the submissions I have due at the end of the month, but I can't muster up the oomph to. I tried playing some Sims, but just as I was thinking how nice it was that the cleanup programs mean you won't install anything that will crash your game, I hit a file that crashed my game. I was trying to put down a house for Regulus and Sibyll to live in. I am taking a break because the game takes so damn long to load.

I plan on fiddling with my graphics so my pictures come out clearer, also. I've got the numbers for optimum game play. I downloaded a ton of things from Sapphire Sims today, a site that's difficult to navigate but well worth it. They have fantasy, historical and sci-fi themed object sets and skins.

I've got both my [livejournal.com profile] erotic_elves pieces well underway, and my Halloween fics set as well. I love getting fic exchange assignments for people I know, because then I know what they like. It's less nerve wracking than writing for a complete stranger.

Sibyll and Regulus )

There's Sibyll Trelawny and Regulus Black. Why are they together? Because I based them loosely off of [livejournal.com profile] rivendellrose's Sibyll and [livejournal.com profile] dalhessian's Regulus. They're in the same neighborhood as Snape and Lily. (Remus and Sirius are also there now.) Sibyll's costume was taken from a description of her as wearing 'shirts that looked like kerchiefs and those awful skirts with bells and bangles all over them'. Regulus looks much more impressive in his formal wear.
