Ryan Ross is even beginning to look like a figure skater in my icon, I don't know.

This and this are my new favourite things on earth. (Warning: figure skating RPF! also a work in progress! I have been refreshing the pages every thirty minutes) *___________* softlyforgotten posted a while ago about wanting funny and lighthearted porn that you don't get so much of in bandom anymore, and I didn't realise, I think, quite how much I'd missed that until I started reading these two fics. And, okay, there is no porn in the first and very little in the second -- but arranged marriages and pining and boys being delightfully and hilariously stupid. IN A LIGHT-HEARTED KIND OF WAY.

I think I'm in fannish love with Johnny Weir. I linked my BFF (you know, the one who knows I read fanfic and things) to the first one and she was like, "I love Evan Lysacek!" and I was like BUT DOES SHE NOT RECOGNISE THE MAGNIFICENCE OF JOHNNY WEIR, and so on.

Today was a weird day, because I'm never very good when I have my period, so I basically just lumbered around work getting nothing done and bumping into people and dropping things on the floor. Then I came home, and made a bad pizza, which was humiliating. On the other hand, yesterday I made these chocolate chip meringue cookies which were really easy and delicious. (Although if you don't like cookies and things really sweet, you might want to cut down on the sugar and the amount of chocolate chips, or maybe even take them out altogether.) I like baking a lot, in case you couldn't tell. *____________*

So anyway, Johnny Weir, accidental marriages, Johnny Weir, chocolate chip meringue cookies! If you wanted to talk about any of those things to me or rec me more hilarious and adorable (I am not looking for the angsty stuff yet, I don't think) skating fic, I would like that a lot.

Yesterday I read fic (the same fics as you, too, plus a couple others) and then made chocolate chip cookies. So we're basically in the same place right now, I think.

And dude, this is my newest obsession. I love it when there's a new fandom that you fall into and suddenly you can't find enough fic, videos, interviews, pictures, etc. Or people to discuss all those things with! Thank goodness for kink memes.

Also, I am so happy that you appreciate smittenkitchen! It's my go-to for pretty much everything. I'm pretty sure the recipe I used yesterday was from there, too.

Oh, and I totally understand what you mean about having your period - I don't get bitchy, really, or surly or whatever, I just get kind of hopeless and maudlin. (I have been known to tear up at commericals. But they were Olympic commercials, okay?)

Have you read anything by tyrannicides? Because this is my favourite Johnny/Evan fic so far in this fandom, and I would love it if you'd read it and then squeal with me.

One squeal, coming right up! ... well, in half an hour I'm leaving the house but THANK YOU FOR THE REC a reading of it will be forthcoming, I am looking forward to it hugely. :D

It is weird! I have been strangely happy this week, so much that getting my period was a surprise (I usually know because the pre-emptive gloom and doom has alerted me), but then the lethargy kicked it afterwards.

And also --

I was just walking along thinking that Johnny Weir was adorable and ridiculous, and then I happened along this photo! and BOOM CRASH.

I look forward to the squee!

I went from going, "Oh, guys, do you mind if we watch the men's figure skating? It's always kind of funny and there's this one guy I've been hearing a lot about..." to "OH MY GOD JOHNNY WEIR I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU." I visited an old friend the other day, and I swear, I somehow managed to turn the conversation around to Johnny, and then show her videos, and talk to her about how he makes his own outfits. And then I got all indignant and protective about the amount of crap he gets from people. It was sort of silly.

OKAY I READ IT. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Last week I was just looking at pictures of Johnny Weir, okay, and just because he was pretty didn't mean I had to get all fannish about him and then scoradh linked to the accidental marriage fic and now it's day four and I'M STILL OBSESSED WITH HIM.

HE IS PUTTING HIS BROTHER THROUGH COLLEGE AND HE CAN SPEAK RUSSIAN AND I LOVE HIM.
