"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Alas, I know nothing about the above fandoms, else I'd have a crack myself. Bugger.

Anne, I was pretty sure I saw NCIS being offered up during the pinch-hit auction, and now I'm seeing a story that looks like it's for you on the archive.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

And now, post-yuletide, comes the post-yuletide neuroses! Whoo.

I haven't had a chance to read anything yet, though. "Work" will be fun tomorrow.

now I'm seeing a story that looks like it's for you on the archive.

I just saw it there this morning. Apparently, it didn't upload correctly or something the first time around. Anyhow, I read it and enjoyed it very much.

And now, post-yuletide, comes the post-yuletide neuroses!

Hell yes. I keep looking to see if anyone is reccing my fic in LJ. Please tell me that I'm not the only one who's being so vain and insecure.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Ha! No, of course not. We're all just that vain and insecure. Well, there might be someone out there who isn't, but frankly they're in the minority.

Even better, my recipient hasn't posted a comment yet. She hates it!

Yup. I posed the conclusion to a big story on LJ, didn't get any comments for 12 hours, and was ready to convert to Catholicism and join one of the cloistered orders.

I did get a comment from my recipient, and she was quite pleased, so that's the important bit.

Also, I kind of want to go in and fix the formatting of my fic.

I believe vampires are the world's greatest golfers

Even better, my recipient hasn't posted a comment yet. She hates it!

Heh. I had that reaction too - I went and checked my recipient's LJ and I think she's left for holidays in Mexico. Thank god some other generous soul commented on the story, or I'd be sitting in a corner ready to eat worms.

Oh, whee, I'm having a kerfuffle in my LJ from someone objecting to my non-use of fanon elements like consorts and mating rituals and mates and all that. Plus the new arrival is going "I haven't read all the previous parts, why is this so confusing?" Possibly a legitimate reminder to tell new folks where the rest of things are. I never expect to attract new readers who haven't been faithfully following events.

That's a legitimate whee, by the way. One of my regular readers is taking the new arrival to task. Someone cares enough to tell me I'm doing it wrong!
