oy.

Tonight, as we were coincidentally preparing our dinners at the same time, one of my flatmates read me a rather impressive lecture about how the rarity of red meat in my diet (I'm not a vegetarian, I just can't be arsed to take the time to cook meat) meant I wasn't getting enough iron, and I could become anemic, and I should Do Something About It. And then eyed my pasta very skeptically, as if psychically sensing its anguish at not having meat or possibly robust iron-rich vegetables like spinach added to it. And SHE'S not even the flatmate who's studying to be a nutritionist.

I knew there was a reason I normally don't cook dinner 'til after 9pm, when the rest of my flatmates are unlikely to be in the kitchen.

Seriously, yo. I realize that things like this are probably the reason this girl is 40lbs lighter than I am, but still. I barely even know her. My food. My life. I don't tell her that she's scarily skinny and should eat more, do I?

Ah, fuck it. I'm going to eat some chocolate now. So neener.

all the cool kids are doing it!

Ten signs you're reading a kaydeefic:

1. Pretty boys snarking at each other in a foreplayish manner.
2. Pretentious literary allusions, quite possibly involving quotes to head off each section of the fic.
3. Overuse of the word 'really' or the phrase 'a bit ___'/'a tad ___'
4. Ends with a paragraph/line that blatantly attempts to tug emo heartstrings.
5. Flashbacks. Many, many flashbacks. Quite possibly more flashbacking than here-and-now, actually.
6. Never just one continuous block of story. Multiple 'scenes', separated by *s.
7. Everyone Loves Remus (or Dom, depending on fandom). Always. He can Do No Wrong, even when he does.
8. Characters other than The Pairing Of The Fic have significant speaking roles. Even Peter.
9. Blatant symbolism, or perhaps a recurring theme, which is easily identified in the title.
10. Discreet fadeout just before the actual sex.

All right, now it's your turn. Come on. Have a go at me and my ficcish quirks. I can take it. ;)
