Going on a mental-break/birthday/visit/HP-celebration vacation

[bironic]

From Thursday through next Wednesday I'll be down in Asheville, North Carolina, visiting synn, who's now living there instead of 20 minutes from my house. It's her birthday Saturday, so the trip is partly a gift for her and partly a celebration of Deathly Hallows coming out and partly a gift for me too (five days off work! preceded by a three-day week

*g* I spent a happy hour flicking through the MRI slices on CD, like the fly-throughs of the Visible Human project.

Yay House/Foreman. I hope you're able to finish it up so it's not too late for the 'fest -- although there's no rushing genius. :)

Mm, I know what you mean. Sometimes just plotting a story out in my head is enough to take the interest out of writing it. I guess your story didn't want to be a collection of dialogue-only scenelets?

Now I finally have a face to place your name with! Or, you know, a picture.

Hope your big list of things gets shorter soon, and all that's left will be the good stuff.

I almost made a joke about how that photo would really help people recognize me on the street. :) Thanks for the happy thoughts. I hope the same is true. By September, I plan to be a healthier, happier, more productive me.

roga made me start an SGA AU. :(

Which is annoying since I have like ten-bazillion other things on my plate as well.

Yes, how terribly terrible. (You made me give you a separate listing in the gate_house House/SGA crossovers list, you know.) Until it gets written, because then you'll probably have a blast, and we'll surely enjoy reading it. Is it for the new SGA AU challenge community whose name I've forgotten or was it just a random request?

It mostly came out of watching too much Friday Night Lights and my brain going, "John would totally coach high school football if he could." Everything kind of went from there. Um, never mind that I know almost nothing about football. Rodney is, of course, the physics teacher.

Also, the additional Mathletes fics from the timestamp meme are totally not my fault.

[bironic]

Sure, sure. You know you were just asking for it.

John would totally coach high school football if he could." ... Rodney is, of course, the physics teacher.

Oh, that sounds neat (and did you say anything about that in your LJ? It sounds vaguely familiar). I've never seen FNL but (a) it already sounds like it'll work wonderfully and (b) I have some friends who love it and SGA and would probably adore a crossover/fusion/thing.

Oooo, nifty!

I'm posting one-handed, holding a finally-sleeping Z. And headed for bed myself. Hope you have a great vacation!

*hugs*

[bironic]

Aw, sleeping baby and sleepy Perspi. Hope you're both well-rested this morning. Thanks for the well-wishing -- I hope to be somewhat restored by this time next week for the benefit of all.

That's ... quite the lovely abdomen ya got there, bironic. Hee.

How are all of you?

Drowning in the Roman Empire. Frikkity-frakkity James and Gregorius are being so damn talkative I can't shut them the hell up. Which is a good thing but sheesh.

Have a safe and happy trip!

[bironic]

Yes, yes, poor you, a slave to James and Gregorius alike. :D I've been poking my head in now that you're getting close to my favorite scene in the chapter, and shall comment one of these days when I have something to say that isn't just "Yay!"
