Stupid Meme.  I have tried three times today to post a comment to [livejournal.com profile] dark_aegis's thread on that fanfic love meme today and every time I do it, it just disappears.  I don't get the error page or something saying it's being screened.  It's just gone.  I had no problem posting on anyone else's things.  It was a nice, long, thought-out entry the first time.  Shorter and more to the point on the second, and the third I'd at least copied it before it disappeared into the ether.  So fine, stupid meme, I'm just gonna post it here and hope she sees it:

So to [livejournal.com profile] dark_aegis, my favorites of your fics are those in The Hide and Seek 'verse.  I love this version of an alternate ninth Doctor (which I am such a sucker for) and Rose finding him all John Smith like.  It's wonderful and makes me squeeful every time I read the stories.  Of course (as I told her partner in crime) I also love the collab fic Cheating Time.  It remains my favorite Doctor Who fanfic to this day.  The sheer timey whimey perfect joy of it all, the slow falling apart of everything, the eventual solution that is one of the most clever usages of Jack Harkness I've ever seen.  Yeah.  And I really, really enjoyed Life After which I just read last week.  You've got an ability to plot adventure fic that I don't see too often and when I see your name I always try to read whatever it is, even if it means saving it in a list somewhere until I have time to read it.  Your fics are always very engrossing, like I'm watching it as a movie instead of reading it.  You're also one of only a handful that I'll read OT3 from.  You can make me believe it could really happen.  And when you do it, you do it right.  It's a true three way partnership without someone in the pairing getting tossed to the side or left out in the cold.

Yeah, now that I've posted it here it'll probably show up on the meme.  All three times.

15.5 Laps!

I am moving right along on my goals at the pool, which is awesome.  The last day I went swimming was the 13th and I did 12.  Now my goal is just to do one more than the previous time each time I go, but I felt so good after doing 13 that I just wanted to keep going.  It feels so good and I feel stronger every day.  Actually, I wanted to keep going after doing 15.5, but things were getting really rowdy in the pool outside of the lap lane and I was worried one of my kids was going to get hurt by the unsupervised kids in the pool if i wasn't with them.

Bit of a rant about bad pool behavior from other people's kids )
I still feel really amazing though.  Yes, all that was irritating but I'm not walking around feeling all ticked off.  I have an endorphin high from the exercise, which is really cool.  Okay, I'm off to drop the eldest at the library for a club meeting and then make dinner (grilled chicken and fresh green breans, yum), and then it's writing lke a fiend time again. Yay.  I love it when the muses are cooperative. *grins*  This keeps up and I might finish a chapter of LoF for tomorrow.

[livejournal.com profile] susanb03 is holding an auction of Doctor Who related memorabilia (both Old School and New Who) to pay for her husband's medical bills.  They didn't have insurance at the time of his diagnosis, so this is a fundraiser for that and she asked me to help spread the word.  Items up for auction can be viewed here:  http://www.kodakgallery.com/gallery/creativeapps/slideShow/Main.jsp  Bids can be placed in the comments there.  Questions can be asked in the comments there.  For further info contact [livejournal.com profile] susanb03 at krelaorla at gmail dot com.
