Saying thank you, claiming fic, waving hello, & WTAF?

Hello flist! Yes, it's meeeee! I know I kinda disappeared in a puff of Real Life, and am about to do so again, but I need to resurface to say a few things.

Firstly, profound thanks needs to be given to mayfly_78 for the gorgeous animated In the Garden of Eden, which was gifted to me as a remix of my In the Beginning. It's simply stunning. If you've not seen it, I urge you to go have a look. Also, huge thanks to the hd_remix mods for running such a brilliant fest! Xx. I wrote a little something for megyal, called Anywhere is Here. It's a continuation of her very fun RPS If You Could Be Anywhere. I like to think that all actually happened, Y/y?

And if you're in desperate need of more fluffy smut, this time of a Trek slant, I updated my Perfectly Reckless (Khirk) series today with Hotel Medbay. It's not a long update, but an important one. There will be more. Promise. *wink* (LOL, sorry.)

In RL news, things continue to go well: still have a job I love, a big old Georgian house that's slowly getting a face lift, kids who mostly behave (they'll be 10 this year - WTF?), Mr Nursedarry continues to build wind turbines and still enjoys it, and our connoisseur cat, who's keen to supplement our diets with numerous birds and rodents, is enjoying the changing season immensely.

This weekend sees me down in London again, schmoozing with my gorgeous fangirl friends, and rubbing shoulders with T.Hiddy and the beautiful people on the red carpet at the Oliviers.

I'll leave you with a bit of randomness - borne of strange dreams and a couple vodka tonics. The other night, for absolutely no good reason, and with an enormous repertoire of fantasy men and women to choose from, my subconscious pulled out the Gilligan's Island episode where Mary Ann falls and bangs her head and thinks she's Ginger. I even woke up with the strains of I Wanna Be Loved By You tinkling through my head. Anyone remember that? It's not even my favourite episode! So, tell me, what was yours? I loved that show and would like to hear your fond memories (or hated ones).

I'm ready to sit right back and hear your tale...Oh yes...Professor...mmmmm....boopboopedoo.

It's not my favorite, but the one that made my sister and I nearly sick with laughter not long ago was the one where Gilligan finds a huge mutant spider in a cave and everybody's too scared to go in. When it finally comes out, it's the worst-looking paper-mache-and-black-tights-stuffed-legs thing you ever saw, with a person clearly inside scrabbling around on the dirt; seriously, I think my fourth-grade art class could have made a more realistic-looking arachnid. And we're thinking OK, now the Professor is going to spot it and tell them how it's obviously a fake being operated by some new villain, and point out all the telltale signs that it's fake, except HE TOTALLY ACTS LIKE IT'S A REAL THING AND HAS TO BE DEALT WITH AS IF IT'S A REAL MUTANT SPIDER.

Well, "smart" is usually sexy, but in that case, it was definitely "stupid" is still sexy. LOL! Had completely forgotten that episode. I remember thinking similarly about the episode with the ghosts.
