May. 2nd, 2015 12:49 pmI slept later this morning than I intended to. It was after 10:00 when I got up. That means that I'm squishing together when I take my morning meds and when I take my lunch meds because we're going to a birthday party at 1:30.
The LJ and DW Metanews posts went up over night. I did the Tumblr post because the other moderator was having issues with a slow connection and couldn't get Tumblr to load. There were a couple of html errors in the post that I've fixed on DW and LJ (I haven't the slightest clue how to fix them on Tumblr). Both were my errors, but I think two errors is pretty good in thirty pages of links.
We do have templates for how to lay out the links, and if I used those, I wouldn't make most of these mistakes, but going back and forth to get the templates takes so long that it would probably double the time I take writing up a link. I'd rather just type from scratch and deal with the occasional error.
I'm torn as to whether I want to write after we get back from the party or whether I want to get started on link finding so that it's not quite as hectic Monday and Tuesday. Writing is definitely tempting. I keep not doing it, and I'd really like to get this chapter moving. On the other hand, the link finding has to be done at some point.
I am thinking to sign up for Remix this year simply because I love the challenge of it. I qualify in Weiss Kreuz and Narnia, so it should be relatively straightforward to find someone to write for me. I'm not sure what to offer-- They're opening things up to any fandom in the tagset this year. I'm not sure how that will work in terms of knowing what to offer since that really depends on what fandoms people want to be remixed in. It would be very easy to offer a bunch of fandoms that nobody's asking for, but at the same time, even a very tiny fandom might be in someone's sign up. I don't know. I think they need a nomination period of some sort.
I have pretty much promised to offer to remix Naruto and Narnia. I don't know what else makes sense for me. I don't feel like I have to know a fandom in as much detail to remix it as I do to write from scratch.
We apparently just had an earthquake. I didn't notice, but Scott and Cordelia both did.
