I'm too exhausted to go into great depth about Jus in Bello, just know that there was a lot of love even if I didn't get to watch the Boys in High-Def tonight. (I will totally rewatch them tomorrow in High-Def so that I am appropriately gobsmacked).

Right now I am taking a break from packing. Why do I leave things last minute? Also, why the fuck am I going to Puerto Rico sporting an ALL BLACK wardrobe? Seriously. I'm going to fucking die. But all my short-sleeved shirts (that aren't HUGE on me) are black.

It's not like I'm trying to be a moody goth or something. It's just that I tend to buy black out of it looking best on me.

Um. And since I'm doing EVERYTHING last minute--I am making some last minute purchases tomorrow that I desperately need ASAP--I just realized I have nothing to read on the plane. And I really need to read something new on the plane. Any suggestions? It has to be a paperback. Nothing as depressing as The Road. I'm pretty flexible as long as it isn't romance or chick lit (I only read romance if it's J2 RPS. Heh.). Or something crappy like The DaVinci Code.

The only good thing about packing my suitcase tonight was that I did it while watching Robin Hood: Men In Tights. Which is one of my favorite movies ever.

"Because unlike other Robin Hoods, I can speak with an English accent."

Um. So book recs, PLEASE? I need to go to the bookstore tomorrow night.

Hiiiiiiii. I had a Jamocha shake today and like, not much else and I am still tripping on the rush of sugar and caffeine. It's really super awesome.

TODAY is a great day, despite like usual travel-related panic and the fact that I didn't go into work (I lose at life) and the reason WHY today is GOOD is because of my [livejournal.com profile] ignited, the light of my life, the Sam to my Dean, my better half, and like a very shiny person INDEED has posted it.

The story. The one that has made me crazy with need, the need of seeing it posted in all its glory.

I've never had a greater pleasure of beta-ing a story as I have this one. And you know, it's really, really fucking excellent. Compelling and really works with the plot of the movie Stef picked out for the [livejournal.com profile] abouttwoboys challenge--Dating the Enemy--and it's just CLEVER.

And it's J2. Where the boys live in New York. So you know. That rocks as well.

*claps hands* And it's BODYSWAP. Whee!

All That's Left to Chart
--Jared/Jensen, NC-17, 36,000 words (it's EPIC), AU
--Summary: Jared is a hot shot MTV VJ, easygoing and affable. Jensen is a brilliant science journalist, geeky and introverted. They’re a perfect case of opposites attracting, but when they’re unable to compromise and save their relationship, the natural forces of the universe decide to intervene. They wake up in each other’s bodies in order to get a taste of their very different lives—if they don’t drive each other crazy first.

They are in such big gay love. It's either been ten years or since early January that Stef's been working on this, which means I have been talking to her about this story for that same period and it makes my heart fill with something. Let's call it, oh, happiness.

And since Stef has to show off that not only can she write but she like has major (possibly magical) graphic powers, she also posted a Art and Soundtrack post. Go see the boys in their AU world where Jensen is so awesomely gay and SMART and Jared is like, JARED only like he has a massive ego and is like adfojifuohdkofgioj so HOT. Yeah. I can't be coherent about this hotassery.

The soundtrack's amazing and Stef made me listen to Rhianna for the first time EVER and I might have insisted on some of the songs on the list there (heh, guess which ones!), but they're all so fitting for the story. Yes, even Umbrella. (Jared's ringtone AND his secret drunken karaoke song. Amazingly true.)

Do yourself a favor and read this story.

In the name of J2. ;-)
