Am getting a bit nervous about seeing the apartment and all, but I have dressed appropriately professional-casual instead of going for the baggy t-shirt and ripped-jeans thing and might actually be able to pass for a grown-up capable of making decisions and such. Ahem. Yes. I am planning on asking lots of silly questions, though, and not hesitating to call up my Mom in case of confusion. It's a lot of money! I need to be sure.

My friends tell me that some adults-only apartments say boo to students, too. Honestly, I'm not sure they'll believe me when I say I don't smoke, drink, party, watch TV or listen to music without headphones, and that my idea of a wild night in usually involves calculus. (Except for the part where it sounds too unlikely to be made up, probably.) If my assurances and landlords' word isn't enough, I can always fall back on the whole "Well, I'll ~~probably~~ have a full-time job with the government in May. That enough for you?" argument.

Note to self: don't get defensive.

Anyway, yes, time for another of these things again, because I forgot to post yesterday! (So considers up to the 24th inclusive.)

Twelve weeks into my crazy writing New Year's Resolution - to post a fic or a chapter or a drabble for every day of 2008! You can browse the archives here, and watch my brain explode.

Comments: Technically, Lieder ohne Worte falls into week thirteen (and isn't counted above), but it was by far the hardest to write so I witter on about it here. Mostly, I just had the urge to write something unbearably flowery to get the purple prose out of my system (and if anything lends itself well to purple prose, it's Sapphire and Steel). So there you go. I need to listen to the audio with Ruby again (only trouble with devouring an entire canon over a long weekend is that it all tends to blur together) and see if they address the fact that her entire musical specialty thingie is based on time, which could get really interesting. And I need to listen to The Mystery of the Missing Hour again to quote bits at you. And and I need to write something with Silver and/or Gold. Yes.

(Am not neglecting Doctor Who! Am not! Watch me multitask.)

Anyway, many thanks for the feedback! Am finally starting to get caught up on comments and such. :D

(Also - everybody's reports of Eastercon have made me sufficiently jealous. How about we move the next big con to Western Canada? Eh?)
