So, apparently, every force in the universe is aligned against me ever writing anything ever again.  My brand new laptop (seriously, it's 3 months old) had a complete and total failure last night the likes of which I have only seen when a hard drive failed in the past.  Couldn't boot at all.  Couldn't get into the computer at all ( Read more... )

Fics are not usually friend locked.  Most/all are public.  If you find one that is friend-locked, let me know.

Friending Policy - if you want to friend me, go right ahead.  If you want access to friend only posts (if I ever lock up the fics) let me know that as well.   I answer everything very quickly.

Because nothing is EVER easy, my Master Rec Post has suffered a Catastrophic Failure.  Every time I try to add something, it 'saves' then disappears from the actual post.  So, here's Master Rec Post Redux!  I'm only including recs NOT in the other post because, contrary to popular belief, I'm not completely insane.

So, it's been one year since I broke my tailbone.  It's healed, but it still hurts sometimes.  I thought I was finally going to catch a break with pain.  My shoulder has been acting up less, and my lower back aches only sometimes now, so...Yay.  I was looking forward to something resembling a pain free life.

Yeah.  Well, that was a nice dream.
