So, the suspected Russian spy released on bail in Cyprus appears to have, as the BBC reporter said with glee, "done a runner." (Seriously, Cypriot judge?) This whole spy case is like something out of a book, a book written in like 1932.

However, when I get home I will start trawling for fic, and then the spelling thing will no doubt rear its head high.

I'm currently rereading an NCIS fic that I've read tons of times before instead of working before I go home. I already know how it ends--I should be packing up my stuff now, but I want to finish it first. (It's one of my favorite fanfics in any genre.)

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Speaking of all this hot weather, where are those chortling "global warming" deniers now? (yes, I know weather!=climate and it's climate change not global warming, but they don't seem to.) Confirmation bias, anyone?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I should reread fic, because I have a ton of good stuff marked. But I live the dream that I can be like Plei and read everything under the sun without scarring my retinas.

That is so incredibly, patently, horribly false.

Because books.

It's not hot here. After three days of unrelenting heat and humidity, I'm now in a sweatshirt and still chilly. Mother Nature is a split personality, pass it on. (Or maybe a Gemini.)

I also have very little hair left. Letting the girl go as short as she wants is risky.

I don't venture into the fic world without a solid recommendation from someone whose work I already like or whose opinion I trust. Having just started watching Criminal Minds, I'm thinking I wouldn't mind reading some of that fanfic, but I'm scared of what might be out there!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I am about to walk in the hot hot heat to pick up my car from the mechanic and pay him around $800 for new axle boots. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT AN AXLE BOOT IS. And then I am taking my sweaty self to Pilates class.
