Life in a paragraph (or three)

 Firstly, I must say a heartfelt 'thank you' for the nominations for the SGA fan fic awards - most appreciated!  It's prodding me to start notes on another story.  We'll see if it goes anywhere.

Big D and I buy one gift a year that's for both of us - once it was speakers for a sound system, once it was scuba equipment - this year, it was the Time Life issue of the Man from Uncle series.  We have been watching it happily since and I have re-discovered what was, after all, my first fandom.  My very first fan fic was Uncle.  I was eight at the time and it's long since gone missing - thankfully...;)

Seen the first two Torchwoods and holy mackarel.  I mean, they ROCK!  I so see James Marsters coming back for another ep.  Seriously?  The chemistry between him and Barrowman absolutely crackles the air.

Sis and family visited for Christmas and headed back to Canberra - they love it in Australia and plan to stay there as long as her job will have her.  Mum's bought a condo near us (literally two minutes walk) and is moving back in May.  No trips planned this year - worse luck - but looking to visit Australia in 2009 or 2010.  Saving hard for that.

Apart from that, and a fabulous birthday gift from Big D (the HTC Touch - woo hoo!)  life is puttering along.  That's sometimes the best thing you can hope for, innit?
