I spent the past half hour reading through my website stats. Very interesting. I love finding discussion boards in other languages that link to my site, then trying to figure out what language it is and what they might be saying.

Anyway, the stats also show me what terms people have typed into search engines to get to my site. Some of these are quite strange and/or amusing. For example:

so duh! lotion chocolate
bridget riley's death date
buffy slave huddled fear
army catch phrases
he looks at the menu and orders albatross after he takes a bite he asks the waiter if this was really albatross the waiter replies yes and then the man goesinto the restroom he comes out and then goes outside he takes a gun and kills himself why (yes, this whole phrase)

I also followed links to several discussions of my gender essay. I hate this essay. I wrote it in about 3 hours, in the middle of the night, for a class the next day. Then I didn't do any more editing because I couldn't stand to look at it any more. I'm not even sure why I posted it on the site, except that I wanted feedback so that I could re-write it later. Anyway, I'm going to try to make myself rewrite it this weekend, because I think the thesis still works (for season six) and the essay could be decent, if I narrow the topic, rephrase almost everything, fix the stupid errors, write more concisely, reorganize everything .... ugh. Or maybe I'll just put it off indefinitely. (But I really should try, because people are tearing it apart due to the stupid errors that I made and using them as an excuse to discard the entire thesis.)

I'm so not a writer. I have no patience for it at all. This is why I run a fanfic site instead of writing my own fic.

I archived a really neat story yesterday by an author I hadn't heard of before: Offerings by OneTwoMany. It's very much Spike/Buffy, and I liked the writing style a lot. Not the best thing I've ever read, but quite good.

Also added two more chapters of Rocky's Believe. This is an interesting little experiment of a story. The writer is kind of filling in the blanks between episodes, so it's best to read it as it goes (even if you normally wait for WIP's to be finished). It's very subtle and in-canon, with one of the better Buffy voices that I've read.

Jane Davitt is also writing a "Vampire Senses" series, 5 fics which explore Spike/Buffy, each focusing on a difference sense (scent, touch, etc). There are three now, starting with The Scent Of Water.

I'm dreading work tomorrow. The DSL in our office has been down for two days (thanks to evil Verizon). I'm a web programmer, with a whole bunch of deadlines just piling up (it being the end of the month and all), so trying to work offline has been frustrating, to say the least. Our office is usually very pleasant and friendly, but this is pissing everyone off, so we've all been kind of snippy and impatient lately. The good news is that my coworker and I managed to convince our boss to get us a T1 line thanks to Verizon's incompetence (this is the latest in a long line of DSL problems). So it looks like we'll have a superfast T1 by early March. :)
