Hahahaha the internet ALWAYS foils my productivity. Like today. I didn't do the office AT ALL. I wrote, traveled around the series of tubes and never got out of my pjs.
I know!!! Right??? Holy lord, Internet, as fun as you are, you are very distracting. Like Murdock. xD Also, I'm insanely jealous of your PJ status all day.
It is so so distracting. But you know what? Sometimes when you're on the internets you find stuff like this that causes 3 pages to quick morph into 6 on my FR story even when it's almost 3 in the morning. Especially since the way I'm going I could have it done in a day or two. :)
I'm not gonna lie, it's the greatest thing I've EVER experienced, laying around in my pjs working but I really really need to stop being such a freaking lazy slug. Lol.
That is ALSO a beautiful picture, though is it from A-Team or Battlestar? Either way - delicious! And I can see how it is inspiring. :D And now it is here forever for me to come back to when I want to write. YAY!
Also, lazy slug or not, still jealous! If only I didn't have to look at least somewhat presentable. Not that ripped jeans are a great choice, but eh. xD
It's from some Ruckus movie he did with Linda Blair but it so so so helps with the story. As soon as you read it you'll be like, YEP there's that picture. Not to mention it 100% cured my "OH NOES Can I still write series fics!?" questions.
I do NOT miss having to be presentable 5 days a week. We built damned toilet catalogs and I still had to have on business casual every day for 5 years. Made me miss the newsroom where I probably coulda come in pjs and no one woulda said anything because it was after 5 and I was building the paper not doing interviews.
I think I'll probably start being more productive once I get "the man" outta my system. Lol. Right now I'm enjoying being a lazy bum who watches tv and writes all day too much.
Pfsh, if it doesn't have Dwight in it, I suppose it doesn't really matter. xD The picture speaks for itself - I am gorgeous! Be inspired! And apparently you were, because yay series fic!!! *bounces!*
I'm lucky that where I work I don't have to wear business casual unless I know I'm meeting clients. Which hasn't really happened yet. So I can wear jeans. Hell, the owner/CEO came in wearing jeans and converse to meet with a partner. So I'm not too concerned about that. Still, pajama pants are a no. *sad face*
Hey, enjoy away! You're allowed to when you get a sweet deal like you do!
DUDE!! It seriously was like MAGIC! I almost took the lazy way out. I have the whole first half of this story written from 12 years ago that has recently morphed into the beginning of this story and I straight up was like "Meh, I can't write series fic anymore, I'll just use this and hope it helps me out." Then I saw that picture and BAM I'm writing away and THANK GOD I didn't use the old story because this is 45783583 times better. I also love that Fleetwood Mac's Rumours has decided to be my dang soundtrack to this fic.
Oh man wearing jeans to work is so awesome though. I swear days we were allowed to wear jeans at work were always the greatest. Can you wear cool shirts? Whenever Friday's came around I was always rocking out some crazy shirt be it 'TET Corporation' or some awesome Doctor Who shirt. I loved it.
I love it when that happens! When inspiration hits and the story practically writes itself. It doesn't happen too often, but I find that when it does, those are often the stories I am most proud of. The ones I have the clearest picture of before I start.
I work in social media, so we're pretty loose! I usually wear a t-shirt and jeans to work, and a jacket since I get cold easily. I don't think I've worn anything close to a business casual shirt since the third week I was there. xD I'm probably wearing a Cheshire Cat shirt tomorrow, in fact.
I've loved every story I've written since I came back but this one, man this one could be the ONE, I'm not even tired and I really should be. The only one that came close is your birthday story that I wrote at like 4 in the morning when I straight up GOT OUT of bed because I woke up and was like, shit I gotta write or I'm gonna lose this. Lol.
Haha loose clothing restrictions really does make for a better work environment. My first day at the catalog company I wore panty hose and people in my department were like O_o.
I wish I had your confidence! I do not like about 80% of what I've written. It's all in how you view things though, so hopefully one day I will feel love for some of my demon spawn. ...some of it will always be that though. I just now it. I still blame them for my missing socks.
And yes. Yes it does. I'd scream if I had to wear business casual, or business formal, while sitting in an office chair all day updating Twitter pages. Rebel, rebel!
Also, any work place that has O_o at pantyhose is a good place... xD
Your stuff is freaking amazing!! But I understand. Hell it took me 12 years in between writing ANYTHING. I think that's what changed my perspective. Not to mention I see the difference between my old stuff and my writing now and I'm like DAMN, my shiat's so much better. The FEW old stories I have on here is only a tiny fraction of all the ones I had but the other ones are embarassingly bad so I'm gonna keep them hidden in vault. Lol.
No one in Social Media should ever be required to wear Biz Casual and NO ONE should wearing panty hose. Hehe
Heh, awwww, thanks! But yeah, eventually I'll get there. xD For now - demon spawn! I'm sure if I could find the fanfiction from my younger days, though, it would help! I think I ended up losing most of it though.
And noooo one in the world should have a need for panty hose. Agreed! And social media probably never does wear biz casual unless they're a bigger company and higher up. I am fairly low on the totem pole, though I did get an added 'department' yesterday. o_o Small company, so department is more specialty area, but meep, training! And I'm already in two.
Which means I should get to bed. Cause I should be up in, oh, four hours. xD *coffee will be a must!* Good night to you, oh late night owl! Good luck on writing! *purrhug!*
Only reason I still have all mine is because I'm a freaking hoarder. Lol. Oooo, good luck with training! Hehe NITE! Yes I will need coffee to keep me going tomorrow. I feel a freaking TON of Red Bull in my future. Thanks! I hope it keeps up like it is. :)
