First of all, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who submitted on my last post. I really appreciate it. Leo was hands down the biggest winner. I don't even want to tell you how many requests I got for him.
I'm sure you've noticed I haven't been online much. It's not that I don't want to write. Honestly, I really, really want to write. The problem is timing. Since moving to Oregon, I've been looking for work. Actually, if I'm being honest, the first month I didn't look at all. My best friend told me to just rest and get my mojo back because with everything that happened up until my move, I was completely burned out.
I'm finally feeling like me again, but my life has definitely not settled down at all. We're getting kicked out our house because the landlords need to get their heads examined, so we're trying to figure out our living situation. To say that we're pissed is an understatement. Plus, my best friend is getting married and it's just...insane. I kind of want to crawl into a corner and whimper. LOL!
And I don't know about y'all, but this heatwave that's going on right now can go far, far away. It's currently 97 outside and it is absolutely nauseating. Our central air doesn't work, so I've been doing my best to keep myself and my BFF's dog from melting. We're both still alive, so that's something, I suppose.
I would really like to write. I'm hoping things will settle down here soon and we can just move on. I just want to live somewhere and not feel like I've got to move in five minutes. That would be ideal.
So, I'll be around, I hope. Stay cool and stay blessed.

I Need Some Motivation...Or Something
Here I am again. I don't know if anyone saw my rant on Twitter yesterday, but I've hit a creative dead spot when it comes to VIXX. I haven't liked ANY of their songs since Error and even really good pictures of the boys isn't enough to get my motor running (so to speak). So I'm at a standstill.
I honestly don't know if I want to continue doing fan fiction anymore. It is really hard to keep the creativity flowing, especially when feedback is next to nil. When I do ask for feedback, I get maybe two responses, which makes it seem less than worth my effort.
So, with that being said, I want to try something. I've done these before, but this time I want to do it a little differently. Instead of writing full stories, I think I'm going to do little drabbles. Just short little stories that fit the prompt. I just need...something.
- 1: Catching your muse watching porn
- 2: Having your muse sneak up on mine in the shower
- 3: Being inappropriately touched by your muse under a dinner table
- 4: Waking my muse up with oral sex
- 5: Getting a drunken kiss from your muse
- 6: Getting a nude pic of your muse that was meant for someone else
- 7: Spanking my muse in a public place
- 8: Being asked to be drawn naked by your muse
- 9: Whispering dirty things into my muse’s ear
- 10: Watching your muse touch themselves without your muse knowing
- 11: Having sex with your muse in a closet at a dinner party
- 12: Getting flashed by your muse
- 13: Having your muse join mine in the bathtub
- 14: Ripping my muse’s shirt open
- 15: Waking up next to your muse after a night of drunk sex
- 16: Listening to your muse read an erotic novel to my muse
- 17: Doing a striptease for my muse
- 18: Calling my muse a different name during sex
- 19: Walking in on your muse having sex with someone else
- 20: Surprising my muse at work with a quickie
Please select a number and a member of VIXX, BTS and GOT7. At this point I just want to write something.

Greetings!
So, when I said I was going on hiatus, I wasn't lying. BUT, I'm finally settling into my new home, 2400 miles from where I was. Things are still at loose ends since my belongings are still back in Michigan, but my best friend has been an absolute godsend and has done her best to make my transition to Oregon a smooth one.
My trip was actually really lovely. I took the train a week ago Monday from Dearborn to Chicago and then transferred to a sleeper train in Chicago. If I hadn't been so completely exhausted from everything that had happened the week prior, I probably would have enjoyed the train ride a LOT more. Sadly, I was so tired that I basically spent the entire trip as a zombie and barely looked out the window.
It was absolutely gorgeous scenery. The train went from Chicago up to St. Paul/Minneapolis the first night. When I woke up the next morning we were halfway across North Dakota. Got into Montana on Tuesday and spent the majority of the day going thru that. We reached the Rockies around 7 pm Tuesday night, which was a trip. They start out as these itty-bitty little bumps on the horizon and the closer you get, the bigger they get. Absolutely gorgeous and so green!!!
Got into Washington State around 1:30 in the morning on Wednesday and spent the morning going down the Columbia River Gorge. I'd forgotten just how beautiful this part of the country is. Got into Portland early and my best friend picked me up.
I currently live in Salem, which is about an hour south of Portland. I seem like I'm out in the middle of nowhere, but I'm only fifteen minutes from the city center. It is absolutely gorgeous out here. We live on three quarters of an acre and are completely surrounded by trees. Every night I go to sleep to the sound of the trees rustling in the breeze.
So far, things are good. I still haven't started looking for a job because my best friend told me not to. She wants me to be rested and in a good mindset before I start looking so I don't snap up the first job that comes my way. I honestly have no idea what I want to get into. I'm at a standstill because with my last job I just worked. It wasn't what I WANTED to do. It's a bit daunting to think about because I'm in total limbo right now and don't even know where to start.
That being said, I AM happy with my choice. Right now I feel like a housewife because she's working and I'm not, so I make sure the dishes are done as well as the laundry. I don't want her having to do more than she already is. The house we live in is great. Two huge bedrooms and 1.5 baths. Wide open and if the doors are open, there's an amazing cross breeze that keeps the house cool.
She has two cats, a dog and three goats, which is a bit to get used to. We'll more than likely be moving into Portland in January when her lease is up just to be closer to her work. I'd LOVE to find something close to here with good pay so I can just take over her lease, but I have a feeling that isn't going to happen.
The sad thing about Oregon is how high the income tax is, so that makes it hard to find a really good paying job that will actually give me good take home pay. I'm hoping to find something in the $20 an hour bracket since minimum wage is $15 here, which is ridiculous. Thank God for no sales tax!
I hope to start writing soon. I'm sorry I've been AWOL for so long. With working more than full time + cleaning out my apartment, I just didn't have the wherewithal to be able to think, let alone write. At least write anything coherent, anyway.
I hope y'all are doing well and I hope to have something up for you very soon! :)

Hiatus
Hey, all! Just a FYI that I will be on hiatus probably until August. I'm in the middle of a cross country move & am so busy I can't think. I will start posting again once I'm settled.

A Couple of Things
First of all, I'm going to be completely offline from Wednesday to Tuesday. I'm going back to my hometown to visit my bestest friend and I'm going to be focusing on my time there. That being said, I'm sure I'll be doing a crapton of writing while on the plane, so I'm hoping to have something to put up when I get home.
I actually got requests for answers to ALL of the questions I put up, which surprised me. Most of them were via KKT and other platforms, but I figured I'd respond here to all of them. And I wanted to apologize for not responding directly to most of your comments. Blogger hates me. :(
Answers to the questions below the cut. :)

Greetings & Salutations!
Hiya!
So, you may have noticed I haven't been writing. I have excuses, but the honest truth is that I'm exhausted. I've been working an insane amount of hours and by the time I get home I'm so tired I can't think straight.
It isn't that I'm not writing, because I am. I just haven't posted anything cuz nothing's done. I've narrowed down my writing platforms to AO3 (archiveofourown.org) or maybe AFF. Since I'm not a big of how AFF is set up, I'm more than likely going to be writing exclusively on AO3 once I get things set up over there.
I've been on Blogger for a year and a half. In that time I've had innumerable issues getting things to upload and epic formatting errors. It annoys the crap out of me that I have to move...again, but if I can find somewhere I can write without worrying about major issues, I should.
With that being said, I did want to post something while I'm figuring this all out. I saw this post on Tumblr today and thought it would be a fun thing to do. I'm doubtful of reader participation, but am posting it for the hell of it. If you'd like answers to any of these questions or if you have on that isn't on the list, please put it in the comment section. :)
And with that I bid you a good evening. I should have something posted tomorrow night if it all goes well. *crossing fingers*

Hey, Y'all!
So, I've been doing some major thinking about this blog. Blogger hardly works at all for me anymore. I don't know why. I've communicated with their customer service and I haven't gotten anywhere, so I'm thinking of moving my blog. Putting it somewhere I'll have less issues with. Maybe...if I'm lucky. >__<
That being said, my options aren't very high. I can either go to AO3 where I know I'll actually gets views or go to something like Wordpress, which doesn't thrill me all that much. *sighs*
As much as I love this blog, the stress of trying to get my stuff to post and it not cooperating, is driving me insane. If I DO transfer somewhere else, will you follow me? Inquiring minds want to know.
