and nary a bill in sight
Which is probably a good thing, because I suspect that the new design of the ATM at my bank may have led me to screw up my deposit. Exactly how stupid will I feel if I stuck the envelope in the wrong depository? Really, really, really stupid. Really. Though it is also kind of funny, since I finally got the checks I've been waiting for and now am ( Read more... ) -
Instant Rec: East of the Sun, West of the Moon, by dossier [SGA]
I am utterly and completely biased, of course. I've been beta-ing this one for a while now. I have been beta-ing with absolute glee. I have been biting my tongue and taping my fingers together so I couldn't type my joy over this story before it was posted, but now I can!

not random SGA question
Have there ever been any scenes on any planet in the Pegasus Galaxy showing poultry? Chickens, ducks, any sort of domesticated avian.
Colonel Sanders I would like to know. I can't remember any, but I can't say I was paying attention to the livestock the last three seasons, either.

Rec: Fic: M7 A Matter of Trust by Lacey McBain
Not a lot of you are Magnificent Seven fans, I know, but I have to rec this anyway. First of all, it's set in the same storyline as my The Tale of a Deed. So I'm kind of thrilled and awed. But compliment to me or not, that wouldn't make it something I'd recommend automatically ( Read more... ) -
I'd like to go postal
Dear US Post Office (and Dimwit Counter person),
When I make a point of coming into the actual post office to buy sufficient postage for my overseas mail and I say this to you and hand over my legal US tender, after you look it up on your computer and weigh it on your scale? I do not expect to get said mail returned to me for insufficient postage! ( Read more... ) -
*meep* help?
Anyone have the time and inclination to do a superfast, last minute beta on a cracky John/Vala story? It's about 6000 words long (okay it's a little more, but not much). It's been spellchecked and that's it. It's a pinch hit and is already abominably late.
Anyone.
Anyone at all. -
in no particular order
For the first time in a week I don't feel like a three cell flashlight running on two batteries. This is fantastically good, because it means I might actually get some writing done on the oh so woefully late pinch hit story ( Read more... ) -

For what it's worth
I just stirred my fingers to write emails to one representative and two Senators, expressing my objections to the Copycrime Proposal. I am about as politically active as a sedated sloth, normally. But to me, this is outrageous and flat out stupid. As I pointed out in my email, proposing to imprison nonviolent 'offenders' when California and other ( Read more... )
