"...and about the astonishing number of young ladies who want their bosomry signed by authors, which is apparently something that they are particularly keen on out here."


Okay, best reason to be an author I've come across yet.

(Somehow I don't think it'd work quite so well for me. Dammit.)

XD

I'm gonna have a shower in a few minutes - when I'm done with the SG:A fic, y'know - and then I'm going on a hunt for a monitor and Temeraire, and stopping in at the art gallery for cards and culture. Is gonna be nice to be able to change the brightness of my monitor - I might be able to actually see what the SG:A crew are doing in all the dark, rather than having dialogue and intriguing flashes of motion. And then I'm going to come home, maybe tidy my room a little, and write more.

I love unexpected days off. :D


ETA: You know when you get those really really really big insect bites that make you go O.O and wonder about whether it's laid eggs underneath your skin and someday soon your arm will split open and a parade of small black insect things will crawl out...? Yeah.

*itches*

ETA 2: yes, you are much prettier and more fun than a penis, dude.

*starry eyed* That's the most romantic thing anyone's ever said to me.

Hee, Rodney icon. ♥

We should do a swap of SGA fic recs sometime! I mean, you might've read all the ones I have on the list already. But you might not've. I can be quite thorough and obsessive when nosing my way through a new fandom. :D

Yesyes! I am going to get back to work on my big rec-list soon.

Personally, though? If you like stupid romantic AUs, go to sga_flashfic memories and check out the Harlequin challenge. SO MUCH GOOD STUFF!

XD

I have actually started keeping a running list in a Word file, although, um, actually it is two word files, one on my laptop and one on my PC depending which one I'm using at the time.

Ahahaha the Harlequin challenge. XD I read some of those- I particularly remember the math camp one because it was AU, but not at the same time!

Also this brings back shameful memories of when I actually used to read Harlequin books. In my defence, I was 8.

... I'm not sure how much in my defence that is, though. *cough*

I used to read them under the table in biology lessons. Except they were Mills and Boon.

:D

[tammaiya.livejournal.com]

I thought Mills and Boon WERE Harlequin? *vaguely recalls both being on the spines*

I used to nick them off my sister and mother, who had fits over the unsuitability of them. Looking back I think it explains a lot about me, especially the tendency of the men to be sexist (but hot!) bastards. XD

Um. No....

Not until *now*, anyway.

I've never been an optimist.

And I think I watched too much X-Files at an impressionable age...

[tammaiya.livejournal.com]

I still have a disproportionate fear of evil dolls. I mean, I don't like horror usually anyway, but EVIL TALKING DOLLS. They're the worst.

*shudder*

I had a terrible dream last night that you got me a random present that was so expensive you couldn't afford to buy a monitor, and you really really wanted to, and I felt AWFUL. Also the present was M&C on VHS, which... OMG M&C! <3 But I have no idea why it was so much or why you thought I didn't have it already. Apparently your monitor crisis is getting to me. XD

Or possibly it was the slashy director's cut version of M&C. In which case it may actually have been worth it. ;) AFTER the monitor! We can go halves on it and you can come over to watch and I will make popcorn, which we will likely be too distracted to eat.

"Bosomry" is my new favorite word. :)

I love Neil!

I totally have the bugs-living-in-you fear. I blame the X-Files and those books that detailed really disgusting and probably untrue stories. Also, snopes.com's bug section. Ew.

And as for edit 2, hee, and also, I clearly haven't been trying hard enough, then. :)
