More organizing of files. More finding of neat things.

This time, it's this old New Year's meme from 2008. I put in my name and this is what I got for this year:

In 2014, simonejester resolves to...

Keep my fanfiction clean.
Be nicer to aliccolo.
Backup my slash regularly.
Start a mystrade fund.
Take roboplege reading.
Overcome my secret fear of google bombs.

...I really should save more slash to my external hard drive in case of internet stoppage...

ETA 9/21/2014: The Twelve Days linked from the above meme:

On the twelfth day of Christmas, simonejester sent to me...

Twelve computers drumming

Eleven politics piping

Ten quotes a-leaping

Nine books dancing

Eight dystopias a-writing

Seven ncis a-fangirling

Six lolcats a-reading

Five hu-u-u-uman rights

Four google bombs

Three thrift stores

Two jensen ackles

...and a lestrade in a bisexuality.

Okay, one more: Things I Am No Longer Allowed To Do At Hogwarts

Note: The vast majority of these were made up by others. I think I posted this back at orbitaldiamonds and asterisked the ones that I did make up myself. I found various lists on LJ back when I lived in Alaska (so between 2007 and 2010) and I have no idea who came up with the idea of making a Hogwarts Skippy List or any of the people who made these suggestions. Anyhow, enjoy!
