today has been a good day

And I'm being totally honest about that.

Words can't describe what a change today is from last week, even though it wasn't even THAT good. I mean, in comparison it was amazing but seriously, so much beter.

Got my schedule for the part time job and I heart it through April. It's just enough for me and I have some variety and it's awesome. Plus? I'm not working tonight, which is AWESOME as I haven't had a Monday off, aside from being sick, since October.

I'm still enamoured of my new hotass purse. ( Have I showed you my new hotass purse? )

I have a new layout. I don't know how long I'll keep it because it might be too light for me but I've been looking at it for a few months now and I finally got up the ... gumption, I guess, to change things.

And I wrote something last night. I'd set the sleep mode on my tv and was drifting off when this image hit me and I immediately got up, turned on the light and scrambled for a pen. I haven't felt the urge to write ANYTHING, let along like THAT, in MONTHS. Today I feel like a new person.

I can't say it's good or anything but I'm going to type it up and try to post it tonight. It's for The Vampire Diaries and I have no fucking idea where it came from but I just love that I wrote something and finished it and it wasn't forced. For anyone who's ever gone through an extended period of writer's block and felt helpless and like it was gone forever knows the relief I feel. Today I don't even feel tired even though I didn't get the sleep I should have. SO HAPPY.

OH OH OH! AND! I've finally got a layout and tags up at vdaries_caps. I just have to put some rules together and an intro post and it'll be ready to go! Run, watch, post (when I have the rules up)!! Spread the word!

The Vampire Diaries fic: when you finally know just how low, low, low // Stefan/Elena // R

Title: when you finally know just how low, low, low
Pairing: Stefan/Elena
Rating: R
Words: 730-ish, unbeta'd
Warnings: potential dubcon? I tried to write around it but there is some definite overtones for it. If dubcon squicks you it might be best to keep going.
Disclaimer: no harm, no foul, don't own.
Summary:Betraying everyone's trust was probably the hottest part.
A/N:This fic represets so many things, especially right now. Not only is it the first fic I'm writing in The Vampire Diaries fandom but it's the first fic I've written since my spn_j2_bigbang last summer. I make no illusions about the quality of this. I'm mostly just so proud that I had an idea and saw it through from start to finish. It's short, unbeta'd and was written at 1am after I had an image from it pop into my head while trying to sleep. I've also never really identified anything in any of my fics as dubcon (that I can remember, anyway) so that's new, too.

I feel like saying something almost formal-like here because this IS my first TVD fic, as bad as it (probably?) is. A grand ribbon cutting? A ceremonial parade? Ah, fuck it. If you like it great. If not, keep going and maybe next time it'll work out.
