Are You a Tortured Genius?

Swiped from pretty much everyone on my f-list.  Dunno about personal angst, but I sure like to make the Doctor and Rose go through it.

You Are 77% Tortured Genius

You are smart. Brilliant in fact. And while it's a blessing, it's also a curse. Your head is filled with everything - grand ideas, insufferable worries, and a good deal of angst.

Fire on the Mountain

We've been watching the helicopters try to put out this:  http://www.bellinghamherald.com/latestheadlines/story/893575.html for the past couple of hours.  Pray for rain and for the wind not to shift.  It's a few miles away (maybe five, if that) and we have a direct view of it from our front porch.  It's been burning since yesterday and the volunteer firefighters couldn't put it out.

We also cancelled our trip to the science center, again, because my stomach still feels like crap and because Rose threw up.  Just as well.  If we have to evacuate I want to be here to grab the lock box with our important papers and the photo albums and my original engagement ring and wedding ring (it's made of gold but I'm allergic and haven't worn it for years).

They think swine flu is in our state now.  I've never been more glad that my kids are homeschooled and for the most part out of the germ-infested places.

What are some terms used over there for sleeping in the nude?

Would you say "in the buff?"

That Which One Cannot Be Without (2/9)

Title:  That Which One Cannot Be Without (2/9)
Author:  Amberfocus
Characters/Pairings:  Nine/Rose, Jack
Genre:  Romance, angst, hurt/comfort, fluff, smut (eventually)
Betas:  Amyo67, JeopardyFriendly
Rating:  Adult
Warnings:  In this story Rose will be having flashbacks to a violent incident where she was beaten by a prison guard and hurt by another man.  This is not rape fic and will not touch on that issue at all.  I will keep the explicitness to a minimum, but I know this sort of thing can trigger memories in the victims of violence so wanted to post fair warning.
Summary:  Rose has lost her equilibrium after a terrible experience and being back on a similar planet is not helping.  The Doctor isn't quite sure what to do to rebuild her spirit, but he has to try because losing her is not an option.  Neither is letting her go home.
Author's Notes:  This fic was written for Wiggiemomsi who won me and 15,000 words in the Support Stacie Auction.  Possible Tissue Warning.
