Travel, porn, and the weather. So exciting. Oh, and the kitten.
Twitter is bad for blogging. It's like every single tiny bit of anything I might ever have to say gets nibbled away in 140-character crumbs and then there's nothing left. For weeks.
Except right now there are a few things after all.
1) We're off to Germany again on the 22nd. I'm kind of trying to make up for the fact that we'll probably not go again for Xmas, ever (long story). So I'm jumping on any cheap flight that I can get, and this one was £12 per person, so...
Anyway, it's really very brief; A. is leaving again on the 25th, I'm hanging on till the 27th. And then I'm straight back into grading. And when that's done I can start looking forward to the third weekend in May when jo_lasalle, becroberts, ina, mananeh and I are going to have us a little party. :-)
2) We actually had some warm days recently. Warm in the sense of 'Solo throws caution to the winds and moves operations into the garden'. And of course Yami was delighted and spent all that time outside with me, chasing butterflies and getting teased by crows twice her size.
The workstation of the busy pornographer, with cat:
3) jo_lasalle and I have committed a TheraPWP. There we were, harmlessly discussing the summer tour and the L.A. concerts and surrounding issues, and... it just happened, okay? It is here: Lift me to the sky, 7,000 words, rated PORN.
4) The kizuna_exchange is almost finished, and as somebody who's never taken part in a fic exchange before, I've found the experience very interesting. Also, the big percentage of AUs really came as a surprise to me, as to several others. And like everybody else, I'm still catching up with the reading, but I've already found a few stories I know I'll read over and over again. The one written for us is one of those. I might do some recs once the reveal is up and reccing won't compromise our anonymity. (Only I suck at recs, so maybe not...)
5) And now I should really spend a couple of more-or-less productive hours with the YamaNade 7 subs.
State of the Collaboration, 33: "japanese teenage boy toy 2008" is not a useful google search term when you actually want to know about popular toys for boys.
