I didn't get a chance to start on the vid drabble projects because I actually left the house. *pauses to let the shock sink in*

It has been an awesome two days. First there was much fun with taraljc and pipsqueaky and aj on New Years Eve rewatching Voyage of the Damned, and Live Free or Die Hard (EXPLOSIONS!), and Hot Fuzz. With snacks! And fannish blather! And then a return to Tara's with Pips today to watch Sarah Jane Adventures. I am a bit wore out by all the not being at home and using vocal cords instead of touch typing to talk to people, but very glad I went.

At some point tomorrow I will finish setting up the project file and start the 24 hour countdown clock on the first insane vid drabble for sweetestdrain, and hopefully the day after that the one for nestra. I'm a bit terrified, but the last time I did this it was really good for me, so I'm looking forward to doing it again.

And now I go faceplant on my bed.

*gulp*...okay, project file set up so the 24 hour countdown on the first vid drabble starts as soon as I hit 'post' here. This would be the part where, if you feel like humoring the psycho, you remind me that the point of these things is not to 'make a vid' so much as it is to get over the fear that paralyzes me from putting anything down on the timeline at all, and to post the unbeta'd results of mad timeline chucking in part to get the hell over myself in terms of being so terrified of what other people will think. Rough ideas are okay for this. They are sort of required. A minute of completely filled in timeline in a day, and a willingness to look dumb in public, is the goal. Period. Anything else is gravy. You all aren't going to be snickering behind your hands about what a complete fraud I am as a vidder if it doesn't turn out very good, because that's not the point. Right?

*breathes into a paper bag and goes to hit post*

See y'all tomorrow at a little after 10 am.
