I've gone ... to look for America ...

Okay. I am bored by the wank now.
I really try, usually, not to feed trolls. It's just not worth it. Occasionally something will really rile me up, and I won't be able to resist ... but then I later come to the exact same conclusion: It's not worth it, and it's stupid. The issues that are being addressed usually aren't stupid -- it's trying to argue with people who don't use logic or reason. I mean, talk about futility.
I've written 5 pages so far of a v. smutty D/G fic that popped into my head while I was in CA. (My idea is still written somewhere on a piece of![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ropo's Cranium paper.) I haven't even gotten to the smut part, because Ginny refuses to see the great idea that is having sex with Draco. My greatest fear at the moment is that my idea will show up in someone else's fic, because that sort of thing has happened to me a LOT. And it's the kind of idea that's so specialized that having two versions of it (posted around the same time) just doesn't work. The worst is when it happens and the other story's totally different, but because that one element is the same, it doesn't matter. Or when the story isn't any good. (Mine or the other one, depending. <g>)
In RL news, my job did get blown up and then put back together again, as I suspected. It's a huge change, and I have many, many more responsibilities. I have a new manager, who isn't really a new manager since he was the manager I had before my current one, which is great because I got along w/ him much better ... and I will be back in contact with a team that I've missed. So this is all a Very Good Thing, even if the 'more work' part of it is kind of sucky.
( Two things about Meg that I forgot to share -- am still in fangirl mode. )
