Apr. 22nd, 2009 10:19 pmOne down, more to go.
It's been a pretty good birthday, thanks to my friendslist. I've got more virtual cake than I can eat, a story from
belegcuthalion, a meme from
rubynye and bunches and bunches of greetings.
I thought I'd try to get several drabbles done today, in various fandoms, but the children were not cooperating, and my dinner required my attention. (Prime rib and cheesecake! Good thing I only do THAT once a year.) Thought I'd let y'all know that I'm momentarily distracted by life, the univers, and NCIS -- and yes, there'll be a NCIS drabble, now that I've allowed myself to start reading the fanfiction. And can I be appalled that I've found an entire fandom that doesn't know the difference between "loose" and "lose"?
But now I'm going to go try and come up with something for New Avengers, Sherlock Holmes, maybe Harry Potter and post the NCIS drabble I wrote the other night.
I got a phone call from my mom, email from my sisters and my friends and a birthday greeting from my newly bespectacled nephew. Good day!
Thanks everyone, for making my day so lovely!

Loose/lose can be funny, but it does break the mood when I'm reading something angsty, alas. Oh, well.

Date: 2009-04-23 04:01 am (UTC)I just wrote you a (very quick) drabble (before I even read this actually, because I saw it was your birthday when I logged onto LJ and I was like, "WTF! I thought that was next week." Then I realized that it's far later in the month than I realized.
*sigh*
I'm always living in the past and behind the times (no wonder I find the Victorian era so fascinating).
Hope you had a great day!
Oh, and yeah, the lose/loose thing is quite jarring, isn't it?

Prime rib and cheesecake sounds even better...
Hugs from all.
Did the bespectacled nephew tell you the reaction to the new adornments? I asked him if his classmates thought he looked like Harry Potter. He said no, they were agreeing he looks more like Clark Kent.
So I'm sending you hugs from Superman Jr.
Our best wishes for the next year.
