So I disappeared for a year or so.

And it's been a big year, full of many changes and complications and much chaos.

And I abandoned this story and everyone who read it.

And I'm really, really sorry.

First and foremost:

I SAW PATRICK DEMPSEY!!!!!!

I was not expecting that I would, to be honest. The schedule of events was not finalized, or at least not made available, until about a week before the event, and that final schedule (emailed to participants) gave the time of the closing ceremony, hosted by PD at 3 PM. Awesome. You know, considering ( Read more... )

So when I said "new chapter by season premiere", I totally meant "unless trouble comes up at work that complicates my life, in which case it will actually be a day or two after the season premiere ( Read more... )

A Few Housekeeping Notes:

1) I just watched the season 5 finale again tonight. You know, just because it was on. And because my DVR forgot to record Bones (I'm very upset with it for this), so I had nothing else to watch when I got home from class. I hate the Post-It note "wedding" as much as ever. Also, I don't think I remember Alex's crying at the end breaking my heart ( Read more... )

Thank You.

Thank you all for your patience during my incredibly long hiatus.

I think things are finally (slowly) turning around. There have not been anymore soul-crushing, life-shattering turns of events in my life lately (knock on wood.)

I have been insanely busy at work (although summer courses have been in session, the flow of students for those pales in ( Read more... )

For the time being (that is, until the completion of One Step Back to You), I'll keep this entry at the top of the page so that it will be easier to find the fic chapters, should you so desire, without digging through tons of old posts.

Three Things:

1) Thank you so much for all your kind words about my Chloe. I'm in mourning, and today is the first day I haven't cried all day. I spent about three days in denial/bargaining with God. Definitely in anger right now, and missing my beautiful kitty terribly.

2) GEORGE???? WTF?????? I was spoiler-free for the finale, and am very glad I was...but ( Read more... )
