Happy Everything!
Way-hey! At last I’ve gotten enough time to post after a crazy busy week with Doug on nights and piles of work to get through at the office after a week away.
First and foremost, I’m now going to be off the beta circuit until 20 June. I hate to do this, cause I love it, but with work heating up (which means less free time to play), two birthday ficlets and![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
hp_sas on the horizon, I need the time. I’ll be back in the beta business after the 20th, so feel free to start sending in stuff again after that!
Speaking ofhp_sas , I’ve got 6K written and it’s about just over halfway done. Finished the beta work yesterday, so it’s full steam ahead (with just the slight detour for ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
enchanted_jae’s and moonlitdark’s birthday presents)!
Next, as many of you know, I'm commissioning some art (all one design- five different artists) as five wonderful and uniquely different BIRTHDAY PRESENTS FOR MYSELF! Since Doug's being deployed soon, I thought to treat myself to a little bit of quality fan art. And two of them have come through and boy are they winners! For those of you who like this kind of thing (okay, that's all of y'all) I give you What Snitch? by the incomparableoldenuf2nb and her wonderful work with graphite and Quidditch Kiss by the lovely leochi whose unique style with watercolours always makes me smile. There's more to come and I can't wait. Thank you ladies for the wonderful presents! They're just what I wanted and I'm so, so appreciative.
Now, onto less civilised matters- GeneralsGrrls orgeneralsgrrls as it will soon be known. Happy Anniversary to HSU! I can't believe we've been together for 10 glorious years! For those of you who don't know us, we're all survivors of JediHunks (with the icon to prove it). We met and formed GeneralsGrrls in 1999 and have been going strong ever since. We've met in RL with HoCons in Las Vegas, Seattle (in which I required participation at my wedding- surprised nothing burned down) and St Louis. I love you all and I'm so glad we're still as nuts as ever. And just to prove it for those who are brave enough to read the latest story synopsis...
kilter, our illustrious Dean, has written two of the funniest stories which I’ll get posted up as soon as. Not only did she write in my lovely new Doctor EA (hands off the bourbon and the bod, ladies), she also managed to encourage dorotea to fuck around in the Dark Arts again. This of course backfired when she found Da Mastah in her bed and Xanatos on a bookcase. I love how the Dean got my boys (BOY did she evah) and I ended up with all of the great unwashed Marauders. Add to that dandelow spritzing the vampire with Holy Water, Commodos reading poetry to the Warrior Princess, delphi waking up with the wrong long-haired blond, my Padawan stuck with the greasy Professor instead of the one in the Fedora, the Borg and noeon's Time Lord's disco disaster and you’ve got just another day at HSU. (ladyoneill, no one was fooled when you said it was just water in that Class of ’78 mug.) And poor Tavington! Someone get him another World of Warfare game for crying out loud!
Voted yesterday. The kids helped put the ballot papers into the boxes for me. In the southern Oxfordshire district in which I live our two main cadidates were Crabbe (Conservative) and Wood (Labour). I shit you not.
In other news: I’m officially OUT OF DEBT! Credit card paid off (and yes, I only use the one card), car paid off (and still going like a motherf*cker), student loan paid off, everything!! And since we’ve decided to live on the base for awhile instead of buying a house this year, we can start replacing some of the furniture- which is a good thing- seeing as most of it came from the set of Shoebox Zoo. Okay, it’s kinda nice that Sean Connery’s son and my husband are the only two people I’ve lain in that bed with, but the stuff is getting OLD. (I bought most of it at the art department’s auction after we wrapped).
And finally, as I was talking about birthdays HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my favourite snake. You may not be around in RL (maybe you are and we’re all going to feel pretty damned embarrassed when you stumble upon the Internet- ask someone to show you how to use a com-pu-ter), but you are a great character and my life would certainly be less smut-filled without you. And seeing as my husband is also turning 29 this year, I in no way feel that there’s anything wrong with playing in your sandbox.
I think that's enough for now.

Brilliant. I was just talking to my husband, who is much older than 29, about all of the time loops in the Potterverse: we're writing them as 15-16 year olds, they're 29 according to canon, they're still not yet 16 in the movies, the actors are, what, 20? All of these little AU time loops cooking.

Fine, no cheese products, but I might need to borrow a bit of Romulan Ale.
You can borrow TR for the weekend, he always enjoys playing with your stethoscope. Don't tell him it's a Muggle thing, he thinks it's magic.
That Mum is a bitch. Want me to curse her?

Speaking of beds, I still need therapy after waking up with your boys. Thanks a lot to myself on that one.

And how do you think I feel after waking up with that...dog. UNCLEAN!

The funniest thing I remember about him was trying to do a cross-word puzzle together (yes, we were working hard that day!) and the clue was about the colour green that Robin Hood wore- and he didn't know the answer! (Lincoln- which I didn't know either, but you'd think Jason would!)
Will post pic if I can find it. If memory serves, I didn't look like too much of a retard in it.

Sorry that I haven't posted your drabble yet... RL has been hectic, but hopefully next week should be calmer. :)
