gmail is really fucking with me today just to piss me off. I'm not really doing anything and still haven't found out my CAE score because as expected, I lost the paperwork with the details on how to get my test score. Who would have guessed that I'd be able to misplace something with all my piles of paper all over the room? Gotta call the weird man to ask him if he can help me with it. I guess he's probably able to access the data anyway and if not, well, they have to send me a real certificate, right? ... I hope they do because otherwise, well, I'd be screwed. Nothing unusual.

Sounds like I'm having a shitty day when I'm not. I don't know, I just want to be able to access fucking gmail and google docs so I can get some stuff done and force myself to write more for my crack AU because the prompts are really weighing me down and I can only complete three of the four flavors I'm doing by getting the crack AU written and I've been really, really lazy with it and I want to start posting, damn it. Because there are some real good things in it and I hate having uncompleted flavors jut because I don't feel like writing the AU. Next time, I'll have to find a different way if I write a multiple chapter story.

in other news ... I really don't care enough right now. I should get writing or something. I should do something.

ich habe wieder geschrieben.

zum ersten mal seit einer ganzen weile habe ich über sie geschrieben.

drei getrennte dinge.

eins nach dem anderen.

ohne nachzudenken.

genau so, wie ich das hier jetzt schreibe.

ich habe wieder geschrieben.

ich weiß nicht, was ich geschrieben habe.

ich habe eins veröffentlicht, einfach der allgemeinheit ausgesetzt, klar gemacht, dass das ich bin. ich scheue mich nicht mehr davor.

es war nciht schwer. nciht wie letztes mal.

sie ist nicht mehr der gute geist.

sie ist nur noch ein geist, ein geist, der mich verfolgt, nicht von mir ablassen will, sich an mich klammert und mich mitreißt, mich unfähig macht zu handeln, mich in meinem denken einschränkt.

und ich habe mich von diesem geist gelöst. es war nciht so schwer wie ich immer dachte. es ist einfach. ich musste nur an mich denken. früher hätte es nicht geklappt. das hier ist eine neue entwicklung, etwas, das nur passieren konnte, weil ich fünf jahre lang diesen geist in meinem leben hatte und es zeit ist mich von ihm loszumachen, von ihm abzusagen. distanz zu gewinnen. das ist es, was ich schon seit so langem will.

jetzt habe ich es geschafft.

und ich fühle nicht einmal etwas.

I'm not a big fan of AUs. Not really. Just sometimes, when it's an enjoyable story. The first AU I've ever written was the Experimental AU (aka Hobbie and Doyle shack up).

However, I've been reading Giffen / De Matteis / Maguire work lately and I have to admit that lots of stuff is inspired by them. So, I decided to write an AU that has more or less the same premise as the beginning of "I Can't Believe It's Not The Justice League" which is pure gold although the parallel universe is not the best part.

I'm working on a break-down now, looking for prompts and thinking of what's supposed to happen where. The working title is Crack Outsiders AU but I'll have to change that.

It will be a while before I ever get around to posting or even writing it because it'll be hard to write and I don't know if I can do the cracky, silly humor that this is supposed to be for long periods of time without taking various breaks but I'm working on a break-down and it'll be fun, for sure. it still has the Outsider dynamics but the "we actually know what we're doing" element will be totally gone XD
