Well, duh!

I was just speculating that I needed a good alien race name and how I wished there was an Alien Race Name Generator out there so I could concentrate on writing and get over trying to think of a damned name.

And then there was Google.

Alien Race Name Generator


Silly me, OF COURSE there is an alien race name generator. Find a niche and fill it, that's the internet way!

I'm particularly fond of the name Unchangers Of Denebola, although Toxic Assassins Of Rigel Ten has a nice ring, too. Technology Women Of The Pit sounds like a great B-movie

For those who are asking about the Human series

The answer is yes. Yes, I am going to finish it. It has about two sections left and I have every intention of writing them. I was really wanting to see the new movie first but I suspect that work isn't going to give me the chance so I'm going to wing it. I have one Kirk/Spock story that is eating my brain that I have to finish first and then I'm heading back to it.

So, yes, it will be finished. :)

Maybe I should switch to decaf

Sometime, I think it was the week before last, I was getting my daily 44 oz Coke. (And yes, I drink those daily. I drink TWO daily but we'll get into my caffeine dependency another time.

Anyway, I have on my keys, aside from, you know, keys:

1. My Speedy Rewards card

2. A keychain of Spock and Kirk that was given to me by the lovely sithdragn. It's a colored drawing of them, and the two of them are standing close enough to satisfy the slasher in me but far enough apart that I don't mind having it on my keys for the entire world to gawk at.


So, a couple weeks ago, I was getting my Coke. And I handed the cashier my keys so she could scan my Speedy Rewards card and thus, I could earn one of my two free weekly drinks. (I drink a lot of Coke, okay?) For the first time, ever, she noticed my keychain and said, "Aww, aren't the cute together!"

..she thought it was a photo of, like, I dunno, my brother or something with his boyfriend! Caught flatfooted, I just mumbled something along the lines of, 'Yeah, they are', and left.

This amuses me to no end, but even more so in that now when I come in, she does not comment on my keys anymore. Just quickly gives me my change. I don't know if she realized who they were later and decided I was a freak or if she thinks that I think she's a freak but either way, I'm amused.

By the way, if you're out there and you noticed the keys because you are a Trek slasher, hi! I don't think you're a freak! Feel free to give me a Vulcan salute next time. ;)
