You're back! I was so thrilled to see this update.

Annie has a BAC chart? That's awesome, and so Annie, especially on New Year's Eve. And I was amused that Jeff would only fess up to being a little tipsy when Annie mentioned his weight. Hee.

I felt bad for Vaughn, but found myself chuckling over his predicament. That he would end up being related to one of his hacky-sack buddies, and one named Yngwie no less, just cracks me up.

Yngwie said 'Milady'! Good thing Jeff wasn't there. ;-)

Annie looks distraught now, so Vaughn asks squeamishly, "You haven't...do you have kids now?"

"No," says Jeff, at the same time Annie says "Not yet." Vaughn expects a tense look between the two, but they stand there in relative relaxation, still holding hands.I love this, that it's so natural between these two now and a question about children doesn't freak them out. A lovely moment

I am back! Believe me, the boy drama is way too complicated to even think about explaining. Hopefully it's over, and tomorrow I have plans with the boy who emerged victorious to get him started on Community. We're both very excited, haha.

I had a lot of trouble deciding what to do with my future!Vaughn. I have too much affection for him to make him totally miserable but I'm too steadfastly J/A to make him an absolute success. My conclusion: he got his hacky-sack dreams, but man did they come at a price, haha.

Glad you liked this one! I figured not every chapter has to have super-drama and angst. It's the little moments that make our ship on the actual show, right?

Sorry to hear that. Boy drama can be a drag. Though this new boy sounds promising. I hope the Community viewing goes well!

We killed the first two discs last night and he probably would have wanted to keep going if my mother hadn't borrowed the other two, haha. Very promising indeed.

I miss this fic. :-(

I hope things are continuing to go well with new boy.
