I'm still buried under that heap of work... but the good news is that I dug my way halfway through. Seven more weeks to go. The bad news is that I caught the roommate's cold last week, and had to work through it which just sucked. Also had to postpone the visit to my dad's this weekend, which also sucks; fortunately he was very understanding. Doesn't really make much sense to carry that bug further around. The upside is that instead of sitting on a train, I suddenly had a whole day to myself, so I spent the whole afternoon lying on my bed and watching tv. Um. American Idol. (I can't help it, I got hooked onto the show after we met those folks in San Diego who went to audition. Guilty pleasure.)


Eh, what's with the sudden outburst of Kellerhate on the story/genrefinders comms? I thought by getting rid of mckay_sheppard I finally filtered that stuff out. Maybe just coincidence. I hope... those are comms I definitely don't want to defriend; I'm getting way too much entertainment out of them. But man, when I read storyfinders I expect to see something like "I'm looking for this fic," not "My thoughts on Keller, let me show you them." I really, really, don't care to hear them. :P

My brain's too mushy to write a decent fic rec (no headache though, yay :). But to up the value of this post, a quick linkage (via monanotlisa):Vampires and the Women Who Love Them by st_salieri -- What would happen if Buffy Summers, Bella Swan and Sookie Stackhouse sat down for a little chat with an inquisitive talk show host?

I thought the same thing, until I noticed it was the same poster. I don't think she got a whole lot of response, so either people are not interested, or there is not that much fic out there that fits her request. Both good things. :)

Hope you feel better soon. My cold took 8 days.

Also, great rec. *g*

There was at least one other poster (though apparently 'inspired' by the first one). And to top it off, there were those requests for fic in which Rodney or John get captured and the other one happily trades Elizabeth for them (words fail I can already tell by the description that those are masterpieces of characterization). And all that within a day or so. *twitch* But yeah, looks more like coincidence, not like a general trend.

Hope you feel better soon. My cold took 8 days.

Actually the high dosage of American Idol combined with a day of doing *nothing at all* seemed to have helped a lot.
