Library Trip and Getting Back to Editing...

[matrixrefugee]

I nipped up to the library here in town today, to take care of a few computer-related things (Didn't get as many of them done as I wanted to, since I wanted to get back early since it was warm today, and I didn't know how soon the bus would come: I ended up missing it anyway, and had to wait for the next one...). Plus, I also took out "The

Ref found it at the same time amusing and groan-inducing. As she put it: "The fankiddies need to feel what it's like to be pregnant -- Better yet, they need to feel what it's like to give birth to a twelve pound baby: *that* would cure them of writing either saccharine babyfics or Mpreg. Wonder if there's any way to replicate those physical sensations as a program and upload it to them
