Thursday is the new Friday.

I feel like all I ever do here now is whine about work. :( BUT FOR THIS POST, NO WHINING!

1. SXSW in less than one week. Stamps! Gold Motel! Empires! Hopefully Electric Touch and Taddy Porter and Discos! I don't think I'll get there in time for the Black Cards show, but that's alright. At least four days of music music music.

2. harriet_vane has tempted me into comment fic about Jesse Eisenberg and Andrew Garfield accidentally cuddling and going on shellfish dates. IDEK.

3. Paper should go out to MCB Oncogene tomorrow. FUCK, YES. I want it off my desk.

4. Indian Wells. :D :D :D J is there (or going to be this afternoon, rather) so I expect full reports on Ana and Nole and SStosur and Rafa and Nando's fauxhawk.

5. I didn't really have a fifth point, but for symmetry reasons I like it as the number of items on a list. Um... prompt me? I feel like I really am coming out from my fandom hibernation.

1. Muuusic! FANTASTIC music.

2. Flailing is totally an acceptable response to this point because that's what I'm doing. And hearteyes. EPIC hearteyes.

3. \o/

4. I'm excited for one Argentinean dude, Del Potro, who's been out of the game for about a year.

5. Are you up for some Brad/Nate? Tattoos.

Zen (Brad/Nate)

Brad has spent hours and hours with his skin bare, listening to the hum of the needle, feeling it pierce his skin. He never got off on it, never trembled under the gaze of curious onlookers who watched as the scene on his back took shape, just reached a zen-like state where he could acknowledge the heat and sting.

But the first time he goes to Mickey's to get fresh ink with Nate? That changes. Now it's Nate watching closely, studying skin he's mapped with his fingers and tongue, and it's all Brad can do to breathe deep breaths and remain still.

♥__♥ Nate changes everything, of course. For the better!

Del Potro won one of the tournaments leading up to Indian Wells, right? It was a big deal b/c it was his first win back on the tour.

Yeah, that was a big deal! He fucked up his wrist and had surgery and months of recovery, so it's pretty great to see him winning again.
