Urgh. You don't realize how many passwords you have for all ten thousand of your fannish and other accounts until you go through and try to re-enter everything on a new laptop. So yeah, old one ended up being unrecoverable. Most of the critical things like old fanfic/art, photos and costuming research were backed up on my portable hard drive (

Oh, yea, a relatively fannish post in which to hop in. I've been wanting to friend you since I came over to check out what fic you enjoy and found that you very obligingly rec Sherlock fic on a regular basis. I then realized we enjoy very similar stories. I like to drop a note before friending, so here it is. :-)

Congrats on the new computer, purse, and (hopefully) sticker. The strategy of traveling with tech is key, and very individual - here's to making it all a bit easier!

Oh, why hello! I love this. Now that the fic reveals are up at the holiday exchange comms, I'm actually making NEW fandom friends for the first time in forever. *is squeeful*

I didn't trust myself to type nonchalantly, 'Oh, hello, I ran across your fic recs *cough* somewhere *cough made up* ahem,' so I made myself wait. :-) I am extremely bad at keeping secrets.

[fiona_fawkes]

Oh, now I'm totally curious. How did you find the recs, of all thigns? I honestly didn't think I had more than four people reading those. Or did I rec something of yours and not made the connection?

[impulsereader]

Oh, ha, I don't think you've been over to check the reveals on Holmestice. I received your prompt so I was trying to get a better feel for what you enjoy reading. :-) I was all over the recs because half of them I'd read and the other half I dashed off to read.

Oh fuck me! I knew the name felt familiar from somewhere. You hadn't replied to the comments yet and I totally was waiting for that before starting up a conversation.

Do you have any ketchup? It's just that this foot is a little dry on it's own.

*hands over her ketchup even though the french fries are just a vehicle for the ketchup*

Ah, sorry! I was waiting so anxiously (because being one of the first stories posted is both awesome and awful at the same time) but then there was the delay, and after the reveal I didn't seem to be getting anything like the flood of replies I had expected (I commented pretty heroically *phew*) so I figured we were all playing it cool like the Fonz or something...heeeyyyyyyy!

[fiona_fawkes]

Lol. When are we ever gonna learn that we're all just as socially awkward as the next fangirl?

[impulsereader]

I really just need to give in to the dorky me on all levels. I contend I'm working on it and making progress!
