I hate winter illnesses. I hate sore throats. I hate sore throats that go away and then come back with a vengeance and actually make it hard to sleep. As miserable as they are, I've hardly ever had that problem. But I sure did the last time I tried to sleep. Oh please don't make it come back again and do it some more.... It really feels like it ( Read more... )

Happy Birthday to the awesome Joseph Campanella, who is turning 93! I'm celebrating (so far) by continuing to post the Pokemon story that features his Invaders character guest-starring. It would be nice if later I could watch something with him. (I did re-watch the Invaders episode before I started posting the fic, by the way. I adjusted a few ( Read more... )

So on Monday I saw the 10-inch Funrise Scootaloo. All copies had flaws, and I didn't want her enough to get one of the flawed ones, but now I actually have some hope that maybe I'll be able to get the Sunset Shimmer plush after all! Scootaloo was released in the same wave as Sunset. Now I wish I could get to the other nearby Wal-Marts to check ( Read more... )

I got the Chances fic proofread and posted now. I'm quite pleased with it. And now I only have seven fics left to write! Seven out of the original 100 ... wow ( Read more... )

Went to Wal-Mart this past evening due to Dad not feeling well. He still wasn't, but we were so badly in need of stuff that we really couldn't postpone it another day. So he gave me some money and I bought the stuff while he waited and rested in the car (and in Wal-Mart, after it got too cold in the car ( Read more... )

Still doing the Once post-season 3A vignette series on 31_days. I did manage to get one done that was Thanksgiving-themed. And I have a plan for the next one. Not sure whether I'll write it tonight or save it for sometime this week, though ( Read more... )

So last week on Monday MeTV started their new Fall schedule. First day went fine. Second day, Tuesday, our local affiliate had a really dumb screw-up that caused them to air everything an hour earlier than it was supposed to. We tried to watch CHiPs, but because of the screw-up, we got the TV on at what was then the wrong time ( Read more... )

So about 12 days ago I was fiddling around on a celebrity address database. I'd decided to write to Joseph. Why waste time, after all? And while I was there I found Richard's address and some people saying how quick he writes back. I hadn't written to Richard through snail-mail because I'd been under the mistaken impression that he always charges ( Read more... )
