( you turn me on I'm a radio )
Today was problematic. We've gotten a few complaints about my department in the past week, which is not something that usually happens, since I am awesome and all. Granted, all the complaints were unfounded, but two of them were exacerbated by one of my underlings being short-tempered, so we are still at fault. I don't mind apologizing to patrons, but listening to them bitch at me is not my idea of a good time.
Then I came home to discover that my lawn mower won't start. I reckon that's my fault for treating it badly, but it's still inconvenient, especially given the state of my lawn right now. I'll try it again in the morning, and if it still won't start I reckon I'll have to pay someone to mow the front, at least, until I can get it fixed or replace it. FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS.
Don't become a homeowner, kids. It's not worth the headache.
I've seen this meme done a few different ways, but since every single one of my top ten fics on AO3 are Kurt/Puck fics, I opted to do top ten/bottom ten. For variety's sake, don't you know. I listed the series each Glee fics belongs to, just for kicks.
Top Ten:
1) Offside Pass, diwwcf series, 8001 hits, 16 comments, 26 kudos, 4 bookmarks
2) words we use for you and me, stand-alone, 6344 hits, 23 comments, 109 kudos, 24 bookmarks
3) The Idiot's Guide to Social Networking, diwwcf series, 6138 hits, 10 comments, 12 kudos, 2 bookmarks
4) Those Old Streetscapes streetscapes series, 5425 hits, 36 comments, 131 kudos, 13 bookmarks
5) Home Team, diwwcf series, 5222 hits, 12 comments, 8 kudos
6) a million years or more, diwwcf series, 5104 hits, 9 comments, 13 kudos
7) Easy Money, diwwcf series, 5083 hits, 8 comments, 11 kudos
8) On Our Way to Fall, traveling shoes series, 4706 hits, 20 comments, 37 kudos, 2 bookmarks
9) sun will rise like yesterday, diwwcf series, 4687 hits, 5 comments, 7 kudos
10) The Project Runway Factor, diwwcf series, 4625 hits, 9 comments, 11 kudos
Bottom Ten:
1) The Match Game, My Bodyguard, Ricky/Clifford, 24 hits
2) The Road Less Traveled, Dancer, Texas, Keller/Terrell Lee, 31 hits (this is some terrible writing, but it was written specifically forminotaurs, so I will never take it down.)
3) Beneath the Surface, The Brotherhood, Chris/Dan, 31 hits
4) Where Neither Will, Brotherhood II, Harlan/Marcus, 31 hits
5) As the Years Increase, Touching Evil, Creegan/Rivers, 31 hits
6) Then You Don't, Brotherhood II, Harlan/Marcus, 32 hits
7) Chatoyant, Brotherhood II, Harlan/Marcus, 32 hits
8) Reprieve, Brotherhood II, Harlan/Marcus, 34 hits
9) Rays Of Violet, Brink!, Andy/Brink, 36 hits
10) Forecast, Brotherhood II, Harlan/Marcus, 37 hits
No one's ever heard of Brotherhood II if they didn't hear about it from me, so it's no surprise so many of those are in the bottom. I still love that series, though, even if no one knows the (terrible, terrible) source material. I reckon it's still the porniest thing I've ever written. Well, maybe not. DIWWCF is pretty porny if you take the Winn parts into consideration too.
I have so much to do and no motivation to do any of it. Is it vacation time yet? Please?
