This should have been posted earlier, but I finally got IRC to work um, ~3 hours ago now; wow (thanks to harmonyfb for getting me to the right channel), so I got distracted with WriterCon.  P.S. chrisjournal=awesome.  "Chances are that you will run into someone who will say "just crash on my floor" in order to continue the conversation ;-)  I will check with HI and see ( Read more... )

So, I cried a little inside 'cause flowers=zomg expensive, but then I checked the flist:ficfilter and zomg crack_van. Recced by somebody I don't even know. (Her name is familiar, but it's not like I was recced by one of my friends.) And it's one of the fics I'm proudest of. And just SQUEE!

* K from MPN [look at me go being discreet with names and companies] called; he's always lovely
* being faux-Lutheran with Cat [where ( Read more... )

Remember how I said I was reading fic again?  Well as per usual I try to feedback most of what I read.  One of them was a Without a Trace fic by eolivet.  So in my brief e-mail check tonight while Cat was finalizing travel plans, I see the following LJ comment to my darkfic:Hello! You were kind enough to provide a review of my story -- I hope you don't ( Read more... )

Internet wisdom from my mom:

* Don't be irreplaceable. If you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted.

* Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of  me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave me alone.
