Look at me! I'm posting!

I'm not reading anyone's posts from today or yesterday, because I know everyone will be talking about the Smalville premier. I won't get to see it for quite a while, and I'm a spoiler-free kinda girl. So if I miss anything important and non-spoilery, please point it out to me?
I don't post much normally, because I find everyone else's lives much more entertaining than my own. Plus, I can't type. Have you noticed how everyone else lists a song under "current music", and I list entire albums? That's how well I can't type. Not kidding. But since I've stopped reading your posts, and I can't seem to stay away from the computer, I suppose I'll give this whole posting thing another shot.
I've removed my fic from my LJ. I think, in my heart of hearts, I was hoping that posting it would get it out of my head and into someone else's. The story seems to have a mind of its own, and wants so desperately to be written, but I don't think I'm the girl for it. These vivid, all-absorbing fantasies just pop into my head, and it's up to me to give them words. I'm horrible at descriptive stuff, so I end up with nothing more than blocking and dialogue. It's more like transcribing than creative writing, really. It's certainly less emotionally involving and interesting than, say, Aelora's writing. I guess I could improve my writing skills with a creative writing class or five, but honestly, I don't want to be a writer. I just want to shake these tenacious plot bunnies out of my head somehow.
I love that image . . . Who came up with plot "bunnies", anyway?
Oh, I have a question completely unrelated to anything: Can anyone come up with a euphemism for Lex's, uh, all-over baldness?

The only word that comes to mind is sleek. But that's not really a euphemism....not really one at all...sorry.

And most of the lj posts about smallville are lj-cut, if that helps and you still want to skim and read.

Thanks! I may try that skim-and-read strategy. I know I'll miss everybody if I stop reading altogether.
