So, in the end, I did mostly everything on my list except make sichuan tofu and fold laundry.  A couple things got sort of done or mostly done (clean the house and bind the quilt), but otherwise, damn.  My mom made it here just fine and I had a very busy day and now I'm ready to sleep.

A couple notes. 50 Shades of Grey.  All these moms I know are ( Read more... )

These are not friends. These are just women I know because we all have kids. One of my friends was shocked that I knew about something smutty.

OMG, they want het porn? Good luck!:D

\o/ I have written some Merlin/Gwaine, but I can only write it if Arthur isn't around.

I was just exhausted and overwhelmed last night. That desire seems to have evaporated. We'll see how I'm feeling on Monday when everyone is gone though:D

Productive and exhausting.

Well, not all published authors are good, right?

I slept great! So much going on today.

I can't believe how big 50 Shades of Grey is. My sisters both read it when it was Twilight fanfic and have it on there hard drives (LOL. My sister was so shocked when she saw it was now published). LOL, did your friend ask for any recs?

Ooh the birds are going for a trip? Hope you have a nice arvo with your friend :).

I can't believe that mothers are talking about it. I mean, fandom and RL are not supposed to cross like that for me.

I haven't talked with my friend about recs since then:) I am not sure how I would handle that since she doesn't know my username here and I'd rather she not find it....

Birds went on a field trip. They fell asleep at school! LOL.

(Remind me what "arvo" means again? I know it's Aussie slang, but I can't remember for what.)

Yay you for getting most of that list done!

Yeah, maaan--I was a little upset about "Meat Feast" being gone. I even asked at an "ask" box (which you might have seen) and was told that it had indeed been removed by the author. Whenever that sort of thing happens it always makes me wonder about the author's reasons. Why did she remove it? Did something happen in her life that made her do it? Did she suddenly feel uncomfortable about it? Why?! I try not to be angry, because it's their work and their choice...but :(

Should I read "Intended" then? Is it a student/teacher thing (underage thing) because I don't think I can read those comfortably. :/

Ugh. That list. I still haven't got all the laundry put away nor have I made the tofu. I'll make that this morning.

Yeah, exactly. *sobs again at The Meat Feast being gone* I'm not angry, just very sad.

"Intended" is not about an underage relationship. By the time they get together Arthur will be 18 (I haven't gotten that far). It's terrific. Hilarious. I love it when an author can handle humor well.

I don't do underage with an age discrepancy either. Ugh.

LAUNDRY FOR A FAMILY OF FOUR IS A LOT OF LAUNDRY!! (Sorry for shouting. All to say, I both sympathize and empathize big time.)

My husband---who is such an enabler, I cannot tell you---has said he can probably find The Meat Feast for me, because he has his ways...but she removed it for a reason, so it would be mean of me to try to track it down, right? (Right?)

It's not just the underage thing; it's anything teacher/student. In my profession, it's just too creepy to me. :/ But I'm torn, now, because you said it was funny, and I love funny fics. I'll try it out.:D

No worries. I feel like I do less laundry than other people I know. It's just been a very busy week.

LOL. I might be trying to get a copy for myself, having already read it and possibly wanting to read it again.

Ah. If you want to wait until I've finished it, I can let you know how it's handled. At the moment, I'm impressed with how it's going. I agree, the teacher/student relationship is squicky. Also, this is clearly Arthur/Merlin over anything else, at least to me.

ETA: I take it back. It's awesome. You should totally read it. I'm 1/3 of the way through and she handles the teacher/student relationship beautifully. And it's sooooo freaking funny:)
