Combined newsy things.
Start of post news: This is a news bulletin.
Popslash news: about 1400 words on the "space pirates AU!" I'm writing for my Awesome August date. Feel it is going quite well but also not quite sure what's going to happen next.
Work news: someone at work has swine flu (they won't say who but I have a suspicion, not that it matters). PANIC! Or not. They went through all the prevention stuff with us and I read the symptoms on the NHS site. I was amused to find that I am on the MUST HAVE ANTI-VIRALS (only if I get it!) list because of the diabetes.
Writing news: I think I am going to ask myself to write 3 words of original fic a day. Not because I think 3 words is a viable goal so much as because I am not writing original words AT ALL right now, and because I think that getting started (even if it's only 3 words) is a good thing. Plus, I'm pretty sure that if I start, I'm liable to write more than 3 words. I had this idea from a site called Mildly Creative which has the subtitle "A Gentle Approach To Creativity and Personal Development". I love that sites like this exist.
Personal stuff news: I'm going to Edinburgh next month! I'm a bit worried about it now because of my Ben Goldacre-related freak-out (alone in a pub full of people was bad enough; alone in a pub full of people hundreds of miles from home? What am I doing?) but it does mean I can plan some coping strategies now so I don't end up having a meltdown in Scotland.
Health news: I've lost almost a stone in the last year, go me! Not quite sure how to relate to this (body issues + trying to work with fat acceptance + weight loss being good for diabetes = confusion) but it seems like a good thing and I would definitely like to get fitter and healthier. How much this is actually related to my weight, I don't know.
WoW news: I did stuff in WoW and it was good. I'm pretty sure that more details would send most of my flist into "I don't fucking care" mode. If you are interested, comment. :D
Social news: Gaming tonight YAY!
