I'm sick of being sick.
Thanks for all the well wishes, guys. I really wanted to feel better, since you all so nicely demanded/encouraged it, but I'm not quite there. Maybe tomorrow. I'm rooting for being able to taste food again.
So it's like, midnight now, and I should be going to bed, only I didn't get out of bed today until 7pm. Partly it's because I'm still extremely sick (I've never had anything last this long before, and it's so freaking annoying), partly it's because it never got very bright today (it is, however, a winter wonderland outside), and partly it's because I didn't get a very restful sleep with all the hacking and such.
Okay, I'm done whining about how ill I am. Now I am going to whine about how I'm so behind on everything, including snippets of FY that Pud has posted, Steph's debfic, and God knows what else. Has anyone written any smut that I've missed? I'm in the mood for smut. The muse has actually hit me w/ a v. smutty premise, but there's no way I can write in this condition, and even if I could write, I have plenty of other things I should be working on instead. You never appreciate the wonderfulness of not being sick until you're sick, isn't that right?
Christmas gets less and less Christmasy every year, if you know what I mean. Pretty soon I'll be like, "Oh. It was Christmas yesterday, wasn't it?" Is it just becoming an adult that does it, or is this just a sad, sad commentary about me?
This year's Best Christmas Prezzie prize goes to Ropo, because she not only gave me all things that I really wanted, but also overcame my own total lameness to do it. Thanks d00d!! The Nice Try award goes to Jade, who wrapped up things I had already paid for and tried to pass them off as Christmas gifts. (The baster, however, rocks.) You've really got to admire that kind of spunk.

Christmas totally isn't the same as it used to be. When we were kids, it was like, THE DAY. There was so much excitement and anticipation and that just isn't there as much. I actually find myself looking more forward to giving other people the gifts I bought them than I am to receiving my own, and once that's done, the whole day seems kind of ... done.
I bet it makes the baby Jesus cry that we feel this way.

I guess I was gone when you got back. I've missed you something awful!
I posted smutty, but, alas, L/N smutty, not D/G smutty...*tries to think of who may have given up smut*...all in all, its been a lamentably smutless holiday :(
Anyhow, I've missed you bunches. I'll wait until you are recovered before I begin demanding "TSA" some more. In the mean time:
*hugs*

P.S. Check out the poll about possibly getting together this summer.

Yes, I need the D/G smut. Clearly people don't know what the holidays really are for. I haven't forgotten that you get to see TSA before it goes public ... although when that will even be is anyone's guess.
Wheeeee, geeky HP-fan get together! At the moment it feels like I'm never going to be well again, and wouldn't want to infect you all with my germs, but surely I will be better by the summer. Surely.

Don't worry about reading any of the snippets because I'll be posting Fifteen Years Part 3 probably tonight. Did you read part 2? I think I posted that while you were away the first time...
no subject
I'm positive I read FY2, and now am waiting with excited anticipation for FY3. Wheeeee! But I can't believe I have to wait all the way till tonight.
no subject
I also posted a Gareth Cookie while you were away - did you read that?
no subject
I'm pretty sure I got caught up on all the tidbits you posted, so I think I probably did read it? Or maybe I couldn't get to him due to the bevy of girls that are around him all the time. Hmph.

I am stunned and horrified by all the shameless hussies that are throwing themselves at Liam like ... well, shameless hussies. *sniff* And he's practicing kissing with them! I knew he wasn't as immune as he likes to pretend. He's Draco's son, after all. Well, some of us try to refrain from groupie-like behavior, and if it means that it means everyone gets sugar from Liam but us, well ... then I guess we'll just be dried-up old spinsters forever. WAH. Letting pride take away all my chances for happiness, that's me. Just call me Marilla Cuthbert.

The flu sucks. I got it over winter break and spent the better part of a week sleeping. Get lots of rest and warm liquids!
*loffs*

I saw your post about being disinterested in fandom. Lack of smut will do that ... and yet it's not so surprising that your interest may have waned. I mean ... everything runs its course eventually, and now you have other pretty and shiny things that hold your attention. It's probably healthy that this should be so. Still, it won't be the same without you obsessing right along with me. ; ) It seems possible that I will get into the Alias fandom, though I don't think it'll replace D/G. Not sure I can get out of HP until my two WIPs have been completed, which may be never. Heeheehee.

Hahaha. Did you read
Re: lack of smut. Christmas holidays were v. disappointing in the smutty D/G department. Why did no one want to write holiday D/G smut this year? Wah. And thus I resort to reading Buffy/Spike smut. :P

I think I missed that particular post by Angie, but I liked a lot of what she had to say when she was attempting to get out. <g> Actually, it's not so much the stick-poking that keeps me from leaving, as I would never try to put out a product that I wasn't interested in anymore, but that I hate leaving things unfinished, especially when they're as finished in my head as TSA and IYOK both are. When I "left" the XF fandom (never officially), I was in the midst of co-authoring a novel that I still think about from time to time. I have next to zero interest in XF fandom now (other than all the great people I met), but I still get wibbly about the fact that I have something unfinished out there. So I suppose it's not unheard of for me to abandon ship ... but I don't see that happening w/ HP any time soon. The thing with XF was that when the show ended, it pretty much ended my interest as well (which had been waning, anyway). But HP isn't episodic television; it's already all just in my head, and canon only comes out every few years to "ruin" and change fanon, so ... it's different.
Ohmygod at how much I'm rambling. Please forgive me. I blame the flu.
Tell me you've read the B/S stories by RivkaT and MustangSally that I've mentioned once before. So v. good, and has great smut, too.

Hmmm. I do wonder how much interest people will have in the fandom when all seven books are done and the canon is "closed"--I suspect it will be probably less than now.

Half the point of being ill is to whine about it! That, and taking melodrama to new heights. Whine away my friend, whine away.
((My more lewd imature side))
'You've really got to admire that kind of spunk.' Teehee hee.
Sleep, eat, drink, sniffle, snuffle, get well soon!
