orange is young, full of daring

oh god my mom you guys.

MY MOM IS THE COOLEST.

so. over the weekend I ended up reading this post: Everything You Need to Avoid Becoming a Prisoner of Azkartraz - a bunch of really helpful hints for navigating the city and the hotel and such. excellent. until I got to this:

Parking charge at the hotel is 45.00/night. City parking garage a block away is 25.00/night. One of those garages is at 5th and Mission Street.

at which point I had a full blown panic attack. because idek apparently I've been out of California and certainly out of the Bay Area for long enough now that I've forgotten about things like this. guys! I live in a town without parking meters! there is no way I can afford to pay for parking and since I was driving that was going to be A PROBLEM. commence freaking out periodically all weekend.

so today I get a brilliant idea. and I just called my mom. instead of Christmas presents this year, she just agreed to buy me a plane ticket to SF! it's about the same as parking plus gas so now I might actually have money for extravagent things like eating. \o/

in other news I just watched The Price of Milk which is chock full o' CRAZY but enjoyable because OMG KARL URBAN IS THE CUTEST THING ON THE PLANET. DO NOT TRY TO CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE. when human cloning is perfected I'm going to order TWO!

for great science

OH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA:

James T Kirk Does Not Believe in the No-Lesbian Scenario - Girl!Kirk/Girls, PG-13 -

Bones lifts an eyebrow and gives him “Jim Kirk, what the hell are you going on about?” look number three. Kirk slides off the table, feeling the skirt Bones has provided for him ride up. “What’s the one kind of sex I’ve always wanted but could never have?”

Bones has to know the answer, because they spent three years in college together. In a college dormitory. Where girls sleep. Girls like Uhura and Gaila. Kirk liked to talk about Gaila and Uhura. Watching them lounge around half naked in front of each other gave him a lot to talk about.

Bones gets it. “No. No way.”

“I have to.” He struggles to find a reason that fun-hating, apparently asexual Bones will understand. “For great science.”

Jim as a girl is pretty ridiculous because he still thinks like JIM and so the results of him hitting on girls in his fantastic new form are pretty hilarious. Fun cracky crack fic. \o/
