Meme and other stuff
Life is feeling nice. I've got a plan for heading back to work. I'm going to do my best, they've given me goals, I'll reach them and keep on doing what I think the library needs as well.
Then at the end of March, I get a slightly longer break in which I hope to try and see people and get to visit NYC. My visit with
dodger_sister was wonderful, lots of lazing about. I'm now someone that her cats know, which makes me incredibly happy. Then I came home to a package of goodies from
ladyoflorien and my place, it feels nice to have another night to rest and prepare myself before going back to work.
I introduced her to Becoming Jane which prompted me to finally finish a fix-it fic for it as well as some EPs. I got to thread Tom and Jane with
dynastessa again and it was painful and lovely. Now I just need someone to beta it for me. Anyone up for betaing a post-canon Becoming Jane fic, its only about 1700 words?
I've also been catching up on Boardwalk Empire and I love it. My free HBO thing ran out but while I had it, I happened to watch a good chunk on the third season. I'll be honest, the first reason I stayed watching was Charlie Cox being Irish and dangerous, then the story pulled me in. I'm in the midst of seeing the second season and need to get the music and possibly buy the DVDs. I could play Margaret Thompson as her journey is painful but she keeps finding a way.
This meme is floating around and I love the idea of it. Last seen at

Tell me about stories you think I should write. I mean, if you could sit me down for a day or whatever and say, "Ok, I want you to write this story for me," what would that story be?
I'm not actually promising to *write* any of these, mind you, but it's fun anyway. And who knows if I'll be inspired!
Yesterday was a good FicFriday with a theme of horses for the millirodeo.
For @yakalskovich
William -- old friend
His father's horse had come west with them and now wasn't good for too much, but William loved to talk to him and felt safe.
Jane -- sudden fright
A lady should know how to ride, Jane did but today her horse spooked at someone in the woods, it couldn't be Tom, could it?
Will -- stolen ride
Horses are difficult to steal but sometimes there is a need and Will had to get out of Lincoln fast. He loves a good gallop.
For @thisisyourfault
William - stampede
Being a in a stampede was like drowning on dry land, everything was cattle and panic and trying to find control and breath.
Will - hoofbeats
Since he was a boy, Will has feared hoofbeats, they mean nobles, those who look down and see nothing of use in the streets.
Dem - rhythm
Demeter doesn't enjoy riding, she would rather walk, but there is a music to the steady clop of horses as they plow a field.
Tiwa and Red Pollard - catch the wind
She flew around him and Pops, singing and laughing, her wings just keeping up with them until finally, she was behind him.
