my right hand is not actually working right now

J is working overtime, which means I'm left to finish our basement by myself - in time for the new rug to be installed this friday. So far (just this past weekend) I've had to rip up the old rug, scrape the carpet pad off underneath where it was glued to the concrete in places, pry out the old disgusting carpet-covered baseboards, pry up the old carpet tacks, pry out the staples on the baseboard running up the stairs, hammer down all the staples that I couldn't pry up - essentially, I've realized that I'm old, and that my back hurts and my shoulders hurt and my hands can't properly open so much as a water bottle right now; I think the base of my thumb on my right hand is swollen. AND ON THE AGENDA TONIGHT: scrubbing the floor with bleach to get what padding I couldn't get up off the concrete and spackling and priming the walls. Ugh. Kill me.

Now, I'm currently contemplating who to focus my next Supersaturation 'verse fic on. I know I have to fix Joe and Bob, and I'm planning on giving some of the guys mini-clones (they're so cute!), but I need to have a newish character to focus on. I was thinking maybe Mike Kennerty? Or possibly Marshall. Is there anyone that I've touched on briefly that you guys want explored more?

ALSO: If I was, say, to write more of William's House of Orphans, what/who would you guys want written about?

Oh no! I hate it when my hands get messed up. Try gently stretching your fingers by pressing them back away from you palm at slightly different angles, and then toward you palm. The key is gentle, repetitive motions; you're increasins range of movement in the muscle rather than trying to pop the joints. I also like to work the muscle at the base of my thumb to increase bloodflow and flexibility when I've really messed them up. These are all things I've learned from jugglers and the other art majors at my school, and they really do help.

If you wrote more William's house of orphans I would want to hear about Vicky-T's introduction to society. William spares no expense! The Cab hides behind the curtains and stays up past their bedtime to watch! Gerard cameos!
