Phew! I just got some good work news that came in a really ominous package -- the email just said "Please see the attached letter for the answer." I realize it was a form letter, but it was nervous-making! (Given our past friendly relationship with the person sending the email.) The attached letter said better news than we expected, even.
That's insane troll logic!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
my son is hogging the tv with his babysitter and I wanna watch Castle! I really need to get him a monitor for playing the PS2 when we move.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
RPF/S, whether the people are actors, politicians, members of a band, whatever, falls under "not my beautiful cake". I guess I'm not totally surprised at the extent of subjects of fic. Occasionally disturbed, but not surprised.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why did I even type the word "Wincest"? No good could come of it. At least "Petrellicest" is funnier.
No, I have no idea why. I don't read it either. But the show could not keep those guy's hands off each other. Dude.

That was the plan.
yes, and I wished to draw attention to the funny for the non lawyer types.

Oh god please let the rest of this week not be like today. And I haven't even migrated to a new mailtool, and I foresee that being a bloody disaster. I have nearly 1G of mail, filed in all sorts of ways. Theoretically, after I migrate, it'll be possible to archive them in a more sensible manner, but god, if it goes wrong, it goes horribly wrong.
And then I have to get used to the freaking HUGE display and mess with setting so everything isn't so HUGE, and then resign myself to the fact that I can technically telecommute now and not sure how I feel about that.
Topped all that off with a notice it's time to do this past year's annual review (and write up our goals for it, since the software was unavailable until today...for the past year) and UHG.

I am not made for fic in general, I think -- some link somewhere led me to a lovely Peter Wimsey story, but then I went to see what else was there and saw something about Bunter and rape, and ran away screaming again.

I don't do fic either.

I'm not opposed to it, just easily freaked out. And probably too easily confused -- I read an official Criminal Minds tie-in book one time, and still forget that it wasn't an actual episode.

In other news about how I'm easily confused, since I stopped biting my nails a couple of years ago, I still don't quite know how to handle it when they get too long. I never cut my nails! But yes, now I need to sometimes.
