A number of things....

Alright. I'm depressed. It doesn't happen to me often. And when it does my philosophy is to go with it. The more I just let myself feel it, the faster it'll be done with. I felt like I needed to share with my f-list.

Stress about work always makes everything else in life feel heavy and daunting. But believe me, even in a struggling economy there is always a need for creative, incredible people like you. With as much experience, knowledge and talent that you have, I know it'll only be a short set back for you. You really are too amazing not to succeed.

And I'm not sugarcoating or trying to be naive. I really really believe that.

I'll send baby-waves your way. <3 <3

You're right. When one thing goes outta whack, it can make everything else off too. Or seem off anyway. I needs me some perspective. :) Thank you so much my sweet mmmels! ((((( mmmels ))))))

Sorry about the job situation *hugs*

I'm sending good thoughts your way on the baby situation. I know what it's like to want one so badly and not get pregnant. Hang in there.

PS-You can look online and download a basal temperature chart instead of shelling out a lot of money for an ovulation kit. That's what my fertility doctor had me do.

*hugs* I hope your days ahead will be better

But but... you... so you got pregnant eventually? I mean, I guess I know that. lol. You're right about the temp. It's true we haven't been trying as hard as we could have! I think I am just being impatient. Well, no, it's been a year. But I want one NOW! lol.

K, I'm going to find me a chart online and start using it! Thank you for the encouragement

First, I am soo sorry they put you through those weeks of hell, you running yourself ragged trying to accomplish the damn near impossible, and after all that, they don't offer you a contract. With all that, you would want to work for them? They wouldn't appreciate you enough. I still wish they would have offered you one, though.

A baby! (we'll chat later, lol)

I'll trade you Dracos. Mine's being really pesty lately. I've got work that needs to get done, and this one wants to play. I'm sending him over. I'll be round for him later ;)

Hope you feel better soon, sweetie!

I know! Those bastards! *sigh* Not really. They aren't bastards. They are just protecting themselves in this economy, which is already so different than it was a few months ago. K, I wanna chat about babies. :)

Pesty Draco? Doesn't sound like mine. If mine wanted to play and I resisted he'd probably tie me up. lol. *looks under bed*

Thank you!!!

Huge hugs.

I think I might have found your Draco - he's hiding in that fic rec I just sent you.

You could always subject Harry to sweet melancholy missionary Draco - write the dynodrabble prompt this week just for shits and giggles.

~crosses fingers~ on other stuff. And if you want to hide in my closet, it's all snuggly.

Dude. This story ROCKS! Thank you!

Hahaha! Poor Harry. Might be more like subjecting sweet melancholy Draco to bright eyed and optimistic Harry. That'll make Draco crazy in a heartbeat! :)

*hunkers down in your closet with your shoe and a blankey... and my laptop - just being realistic* :)

I know, right?

It definitely hits my tweak canon sweet spot.

I think one of my favorite bits was the Ron/Greg scene at the end.

I've got Draco: that bit's my fault. I've been in a royal rage all evening and apparently that attracted the dark Draco we all know and love so well. He's doing wonders for later chapters of L&O, but I'm done with him for now if you want him back.

I'm sorry your job situation is frustrating right now. It's good to know, though, that you'll be able to at least pay the bills (both with some work and with the possibility of unemployment). Best of luck with that!

As for pregnancy, that's a tough one. A kit couldn't hurt. Might just have to be patient plus what a great excuse (as if you need one) to have lots of amazing sex, eh?

So much <3 and good vibes!

Oooh a royal rage?? What a great term. Feels alll purple! I think you should send your Dark!Draco on the hunt (I bet he'd be a fearsome hunter) for my naughty!mischievous!dirty_talking!Draco. And then he should threaten him to come home to me. * G *

and um... yes on lots of amazing sex. *goes to find Mr. Ilkee* *saucy grin*

Yeah my rage was all regal and held court. I sent dark!Draco off last night, so hopefully he's brought in his bounty by now.
