Fuck Me

I hate me. I read too much and remember too few specifics.

Okay, I remember many specifics, just not helpful ones, like "author" or, I don't know, "title".

Also, I want some kind of user-friendly archival software, that would allow me to do keyword searches and would have more flexible options. Instead of the crappy, crappy thing I have (and have long since given up on using).

You guys have no idea. I have more than 660 MB of fanfiction permanently archived on my computer. Plus something like 420 MB saved and waiting to be read, in more fandoms than is reasonable to count.

I want a story. I remember the story. Smallville, Clark/Lex, first time, Lex takes Clark to his Inaugural Ball. I remember that Clark speaks Chinese, which isn't helpful at all; that's just the part that sparked the urge to reread.

Can't find it.

I've read the damn thing at least four times, there's no way it's not on this computer.

It's not in any of the secondary folders. Oh, you bet your ass I have secondary folders. The main folder has (currently) four subfolders, each of which is organized differently. So I have three secondary folders, which are supposed to contain everything in the subfolders, one org'd by fandom, one by pairing, one by orientation (slash, het, etc.).

It's a no-go.

I don't want to have to find this thing in the primary folder. Because it's going to be in V. 3.

You don't look for things in 3 unless you have a title.

3 is orientation.

The slash section is...massive. I'm not going to look through several hundred stories in god knows how many fandoms to find this thing.

I checked 4. I'm about to check 2.

It's gonna be in 3.

I hate life.

And also, me, because I'm totally going to go through the several hundred stories to find this one.

Fuck. Me.

Short and Sweet

Oh, Abby and Ducky. I love you so much. You're like the embodiment of they also serve and I love you.

And Christ, that's just mean. Ziva invited everyone to her party but Tony? Even Palmer? Even Abby, Abby who hates her?

Hated her. Seems to be over it now.

Nifty fact? Pauley Perrette provides most of Abby's wardrobe.

The Foreman-as-House's-boss thing remains strange.

I like the new Cingular commercials. You know, the "good night, John-boy" one.

God, I'm tired. Been up since 3 am. Fell asleep at...little after 8:30? Not long after Out of Practice started, which makes me sad. I keep doing this. The falling asleep freakish early and waking up at 3. The bedtimes vary, but that never does.

It's weird that they're bringing Caitlyn Cooper on-canvas on The OC. Commercials' cool, though.

I kinda like Stacy. She gets House. He acts like an ass and she gets it and it makes her feel better.

I love that House is using the phone calls with Wilson to freak the ducklings out with his seeming omniscience.
