I don't like you very much!

I am getting as anxious for her to see Bill as she is. Well not that she didn't see him sort of she just didn't know it, kinda in a weird kinda way.

I like Bill as the antiques guy.

[bsg_aussiegirl]

You don't like me either? *sniff*

Mmm... Anxious for her to see Bill. Mmm... Maybe next chapter (part? sequel?), but maybe not... I need to tease you all a little bit longer.

I tossed up whether he should own a vineyard or be the Lovejoy antique type. They're both quite sexy occupations! In the end, antique dealer seemed a nice fit. He can still show Laura his cluttered home. :)

Asdgfhjkl what is it sliding doors or something :D come on laura you have him!!
Also nice job bill! :D but now get a dress for that ball you have a date! :D i love this <3

[bsg_aussiegirl]

Grrr.... LJ just ate up my reply!!! *whine whine*

Now, what did I say...

I did say that Sliding Doors is one of my fav movies...

Bill's job?! LOL! I've made him a military adviser and an aircraft carrier captain and a newspaper editor and a lawyer and a writer and a bookstore owner and a building contractor and a bodyguard! I'm running out of occupations!

I'm not sure if he's going to the ball... He did say he'd rather just hang out in the park. ♥

[bsg_aussiegirl]

And now both appear... Damn, let me delete one so people don't think I'm nutty...

[bugsfic]

Yes, we must keep looking for new occupations for Bill in retirement! :D It makes complete sense he could be an art appraiser, considering the collection he has on the Galactica.

I think you're just teasing us with the promise of the dance. -,- Laura will probably have to show up on Antiques Roadshow to catch his eye!

Hee at Barry ending up a Demented Docent, as my friend and I call the droning bore chewing your ear off in any small museum. And the promise of Wally Gray dominating Laura's dance card! *fret*

[mellow_mel]

Ha. I didn't pick up on the mayors last name! Thanks bugs!
(I just skim these for smut right? )

[bsg_aussiegirl]

Wally Gray always hangs out on Colonial Day!

Actually, I was thinking serious thoughts about the mayors when I wrote this. If the President and Cabinet looked after the entire 12 Colonies, maybe they had no individual planet governments other than Mayors of the cities. Because Adar was a mayor before he was President. Mmm... I've just started this whole ramble on your comment... See, I wasn't thinking about the smut anyway! ;)

[bsg_aussiegirl]

I just thought of some of the ones I've had Bill do for Cami's comment! LOL! I'm running out! He's going to be a pool cleaner soon if I'm not careful! (Not that there's anything wrong with pool cleaners... Actually... If Laura was needing her pool cleaned...)

The wine tasting celebration needs to come before the ball. ;)

Hee about Garner. Do you have Tourist Info Centres in the US? We have them here and they're fully run by volunteers. And you go into them to grab accommodation brochures etc and have a lonely retiree bail you up... Or you take your retiree mum in with you and she ends up knowing the names of their children... *head desk*

Another good chapter! No smoochies, though. (*sigh*) (*is patient*) I liked the bit with the viper at the museum -- too bad there wasn't a picture next to it. ;) Also, I want Bill's job. I'll trade him -- he can be a boring secretary (better on his back and knees, i'm sure), and I'll be a sweet art appraiser. :D

[nixmom]

I read that totally wrong, as in Bill would be better on his back and knees than you are and therefore a better "secretary." Err...maybe you need o find a new job!

Sorry! But it made me laugh some had to share.

[hollywobbles]

Egad. It totally reads that way, doesn't it! *gigglesnort*

I appreciate the vote of confidence in my character that that was a misread. ;)

Er, yes. It would be better on his aging back and knees. Which is total bullshit in the first place, but, yes.

[bsg_aussiegirl]

You can't have smooches straight away! I have to build some tension. ;)

I was thinking about the photo of Bill and the boys they use in the show. She probably wouldn't recognise him anyway! (Props dept sucked at those photos.)

I'm still confused about the back and knee thing... Even after ready Nix and your comments... Never mind, Bill the art appraiser is (hopefully) hot and realistic!

[anonymous]

Yay you wrote more in this 'verse! ^^ Nice choice for Bill's job, there really are very few things he hasn't worked in AUs :D Will the Tasting be in the next chapter? I sure hope so! :P

Roni

[bsg_aussiegirl]

I said I would keep writing this one!!! Have I ever let you down! (DON'T ANSWER) Of course, now I'm thinking I need a few more installments than I originally planned. *sigh*

Bill's work <---- IKR! Hopefully some of the ones I've written are in character! I did realise that I've given him so many more careers than Laura. She tends to stay in politician and teacher mode more than he does.

Yes! Tasting is next! I said in the previous part it was 2 weeks away, and it is now 2 weeks!

[anonymous]

LOL, doesn't that always happen? :D

This one is definitely in character, Bill's quarters show us he's an art lover and collector.

Yay!!! :)
