Hey everybody out there in Troutnation! It’s World Mental Health Day! This would be a great time for one of my candid posts about mental illness, but I’m having a rough week coping. I’m just kicking back and trying to maintain, but I didn’t want to let the day go by without contributing somehow. So, I made a really grainy, awful looking webcam video about a neat invention I picked up at the pharmacy today. I think it can be helpful to people whose mental illness makes it difficult to keep track of the day-to-day routine.<\/p>\n

A lot of you lovely weirdos have created fanworks about\u00a050 Shades of Grey<\/em>, and they’re often shared in the comments and beloved by all. But last night, I received this jem via twitter and I would hate for anyone to miss it:\u00a0Bic McPenlamperson<\/em> by Bookjunk<\/a>. You might recall Bic McPenlamperson from the\u00a050 Shades Freed<\/em> chapter nine recap<\/a>:<\/p>\n Seriously, have you guys noticed how conveniently \u201clunatics\u201d pop up in their lives, causing these dramatic and unavoidable threats that mean Ana absolutely must stay at home or under Christian\u2019s surveillance all the time? First it was Leila, now it\u2019s Jack Hyde and the mystery woman driving the Dodge. I\u2019m going to guess that this will become a regular thing. \u201cHoney, don\u2019t forget, I have Kate\u2019s bachelorette party to go to.\u201d \u201cOh, um, you can\u2019t, because, uh, um, huh\u2026 uh\u2026 Bic\u2026 Mcpen\u2026 lamp\u2026erson, yeah, that\u2019s right! Bic McPenlamperson! My old nemesis Bic McPenlamperson is out to destroy us. So you can\u2019t go.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n I’m not sure how to properly express just how charmingly bizarre I find it to have someone write fan fiction of my work. It doesn’t happen often, but when it does, I’m always super flattered. This time, it’s also hilarious; this is fanfic of something I wrote about somebody else’s book. See also: the recursion photo in that chapter nine recap. That about sums it up.<\/p>\n Coming soon: the next Buffy recap!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hey everybody out there in Troutnation! It’s World Mental Health Day!
