I'm actually thinking about signing up for the ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
hockeybigbang . Which, is really not something that I should do, since writing challenges always just make me choke up and panic and I end up unable to do anything, even in the cases where I already had a working draft to start with..
It's just I've been doodling with an idea for a Koivu/Granlund fic, which seems like it could end up being reasonably long and sort of perfect for a big bang. And also, the more people being exposed to the pairing the better. (Seriously, they're pretty much the Finnish version of Staal/Skinner pairing, so you know, age difference angst with some added moodiness. Also long-distance feels.. What more could you want?)
So maybe, for once, I could turn this into a motivation to write the god damn thing for real.
While on the subject of things that are crazy. Someone please tell me that trying to get someone to lend me a car for tomorrow so I could ride 200 kilometer just to watch an exhibition hockey game is not worth it. Especially when I really don't have the money for it. Not even to see Rinne in the grease.

no subject
but if you're going to talk about a player, maybe double-checking so that you spell his name right should be a priority
You'd really think so. I mean personally I check the spelling of players damn near compulsively because I'm convinced that on the day that I don't do it, I'll misspell something that should be easy (like Cosby instead of Crosby) and then everyone will think that I'm actually ten years and really ignorant. Which, what with having dyslexia and all, is somewhat stressful.
So I actually do kind of understand how people might end up misspelling something like that one crucial c, it's just super frustrating.
Did I say short and easy? I'm now at 900 or so words on the Koivu/Granlund primer, and I'm not even close to the part about why anyone should ship these two together. I keep trying to compress, but then I'm constantly going "but this is prudent information! It explains everything about their nature and actions! I can't just not mention it!" Even when that might not be the case. Why is editing stuff out so haaard!
