Jacqui and I were planning the next few months out and we've worked out there's something going on now pretty much every weekend between now and the cruise. Duude! Either I've got friends visiting, Jacqui has friends visiting, it's a holiday of some kind or we're away. This should hopefully mean the time will fly by
I just read my first RPS. Orlando/Sean Bean. I'm on the downward slope now! It was the same with slash. When I first started reading fanfic in the Buffy fandom I swore I would never read slash because it wasn't canon and it was kinda gross. Then I read one out of curiosity and that was it. The next thing I knew I was writing stuff like this and reading as much slash as I could get my hands on
I don't have anything against people who write RPS. My main problem is that it's about real people rather than characters. To me RPS is like someone writing a story where me and Jacqui are lesbians together. It's almost like slander, and probably a bit weird for the actors concerned
But I've done it now and the RPS I read wasn't great, so now of course I want to read more to see if I can find a better one. I knew this would happen. Curse my lack of willpower!

Feb. 13th, 2005 12:58 pmI had a strange dream last night that it was time for the cruise and when we checked in Jacqui decided we should upgrade our tickets to business class/1st class/whatever you want to call it. We were sat in these massive seats and it was great :)
The next thing I knew I was in Canada on exchange at a school there and I volunteered to be one of TA's, despite the fact I knew nothing about the teaching system in Canada. I had to stand up and give a speech to the whole school and I was really scared.
Then I realised I couldn't stay because I had to get to Florida for the cruise.
Oh, and somwhere in between I went to the park I used to play in as a kid and played a pirate game with
flickums in the sand pit
Yeah, it was a weird night
