I have (as y'all probably know) a kid. A teenager, at that. That kid has a cell phone. While this is occasionally handy, it's more often a royal pain in my ass. We have constant battles about ring tones, volume, use (and frequency of use). So I'm wondering...am I doing (or not doing) something wrong? Does everyone with kids-with-cell phones have to deal with this crap? Thus, a poll.

It's aimed at folks with kids between the ages of 12 and 18, but if your kid is younger and has a cellphone, or is older and still at home (and you're paying the bills), that's cool too. Please, fill out my poll, because I am very curious about this. Thanks!

( Poll thisaway! )

And also, 'cos I'm hella curious what y'all think ;) (No, I don't spend ANY TIME WHATSOEVER thinking about this stuff. Honest! *holds nose in so it doesn't grow*)

And oh, hey, if you want to expound on your views, please do! I love the conversations that get started from silly things like this *g*

cormallen! You gave me an evil duckie!!! Eeee! Thank you :)

And neither 'deepthroat' nor 'deep throat' looks right. So, a poll!

ETA: HAH, got my first 'freak' response. Thank you, foxmonkey ;)

Here's a compromise, for those of you who can't/won't pick Dean over Sam or Sam over Dean (hah! I made a funny *g*):

Good morning, LJ! How was everyone's weekend?

Mine was...sorta/kinda productive, but not as much as I'd have liked. (Which means, basically, I didn't get the laundry finished, but whatever.) Matthew's sick right now; a nasty chest-cold thing that includes a cough which makes me cringe every time I hear it. I kept him home from school today, because he had a rough weekend -- yesterday included laying quietly on the couch, and dozing off and on for most of the day. For those of you who know my kid, you know how very unusual that is. The kids have tomorrow off, for election day, so I figured one extra day to let him rest up, was probably a good idea.

Did some writing, though not the writing I had planned to do. But, I've determined this is going to be one HELL of a busy summer, writing-wise. I have several stories on my hard drive (Supernatural--we're not even going to discuss the popslash stuff at the moment, because my brain just is not in a popslash place right now; sorry, nopseud.) that need finishing up. I have my spn_50 story to do -- and I think I have a pretty good idea now of what I'm going to write. I have all sorts of unformed, nonspecific thoughts about Colts, Winchesters, Mary, etc. -- and onto that, lyra_wing added time travel. Because I needed more ideas, yeah.

Continuing in the vein of "ideas I didn't need to have", is a kink thing. Y'know those 25-challenges? Yeah, something like that. I mentioned it to wendy yesterday, as we were chatting, thinking of ME, specifically...but the more I thought about it, the more I wondered if there would be anyone else interested in doing something like that. All the other 25 challenges/comms I've seen have had people having to sign up for a specific pairing or general fandom--but I'm thinking that's kind of limiting.

So, if there was no cut-off on how many people could sign up for a pairing, would there be interest in doing a "kink/fetish 25"?

( Here, have a poll with some more questions about kinks and kinkfic. )

I had weird dreams last night. The first couple of hours had something to do with taking a trip on one of those "AeroBus" planes with agt_spooky. I'm not sure where we were going, just that it had something to do with Supernatural. I know that's a surprise. *g* I woke up to use the bathroom, and so the second half of the night was Dr. Who-ish. Rose and Ten were in it, as were a couple of other people I recognized, but can't place, now. And part of it took place at the airport -- maybe related to the first half of the dream, heh.

Why can't I ever dream about Sam, Dean, or SamandDean? Sheesh.

I'm leaving this post unlocked, so as to get as wide a response as possible to the poll. So, if you want, feel free to send peoples over here to answer; that'd be really great :)
