Haze+no tap water= Terrible Terrible Day

Let us dry up in March.

I should get an eye exam and get some glasses again, some things are bugging me again.

[Quickman]

Ideally you should get an eye exam every two years (or every year, if your eyesight is particularly bad).

Not that any of us actually do that.

[Sakura Leic]

Well I am about 4 years late on that anyway, along with the fact that I lost my glasses 2 years ago.  It's not too bad yet, it just bugs me.

Lol, my last change was like... >5 years. At least my degree didn't drop too much during that period.

[Quickman]

I think my glasses are going on two-three years.  My current frames, anyway.  I still have my old pair and I can't see out of them, my eyesight changed that much.

And in other news, the results for the fanfic awards are in and...

My vignette didn't win.  Looking over the titles that did win, I know why.  One: I'm not using any OCs or any popular characters.  Two: It's not romantic and mushy enough (even though it was written for the Monday Mush Mania challenge).  Three: The title isn't contrived, hackneyed, or some obtuse metaphor.

I'm surprised it was even nominated, with how little a chance it had of winning anything.  Oh well.

... Smite the infidels?

[Police Girl]

I'm getting an eye exam tomorrow I think.

Parent's gotta set up the lasik before allergy season sets in.

[Quickman]

... Smite the infidels?

Eh, at least it gave me some notoriety, as my fics are usually ignored by the masses.

You get Lasik? You're not making this hard, are you?

[Dr. Wily II]

All the more to smite the infidels!

[Quickman]

In regards to Lasik... eh.  I'm near-sighted with an astigmatism and strabismus.  The last eye surgery I had was recession of the lateral rectus muscle, in order to prevent my right eye from drifting inward.  It didn't take, my eyes function poorly together, and I'm stuck with glasses and needing vision therapy, with the looming fact that I'll eventually go blind in my right eye from atrophy, anyway.  Fun!

In regards to smiting infidels... eh.  I haven't written any fanfiction in a long while, so it's not as if I was a prolific writer to begin with.  My writing muse has been dead for months, and I've since stopped checking for signs of life and have already dug the grave.

[Dr. Wily II]

At least push some infidels into the grave before you cover it up?

[Police Girl]

I don't understand.

*Boots a bunch of Corran-loving Mara/Luke-writing Kyp-lusting mush/romance writers into the shallow muse grave and starts shoveling in the dirt.*

[Dr. Wily II]

Woot! More Ghost-types!

[Quickman]

Granted, my fic's title was ripped right from Pink Floyd (Speak to Me/Breathe), but it just wasn't good enough to compete with the likes of "Son of Unveiled Secrets" and "Never the Whys."

[Dr. Wily II]

For some reason, I cringed at the second title. I don't know why...

[Quickman]

Because it has obtuse wordplay?  But even that's not the worst of them.  Let's see... "Echoes of Always," "One Prick to Bleed," "Whispers through the Glass," "Lift Not the Painted Veil," "Even Jedi Cry," "Perfectly Sweet and Toasty," "The Poem of those Who Wear Masks," "Passing Time's Singular Despair," and many, many, many more.

[Sakura Leic]

Perfectly Sweet and Toasty?

[Quickman]

Oh my god...

I just came across possibly the stupidest title I have ever seen.

I read it and I think my brain BSoDed on me.  I seriously have no words, as this one takes the cake.  This is, without a shadow of a doubt, out of all the stupid titles I have ever seen, after reading dozens and dozens and dozens of stupid titles, this one is the worst at how much it made me not only scream "NO [parasitic bomb]" but balk at just how inane it is.

Are you ready?  After stuff like "A Thing Unlooked For," "Forgotten Secrets," and "The Smallest Echo," you are in for a treat.

Ladies and gentlemen...  I give you the highest honor that I can bestow upon Tonight's Stupid TFN Fanfic Title...

It gets bonus points for being needlessly redundant.
