Nothing ever happens in my little town. We are but a spec on the map.  But this morning, we were being exit polled. Well, let me be more specific.  The women were being polled, which was a little strange.  I mean, wouldn't you want a nice sampling?  I was in line for 30 minutes and only saw women approached.

Anywhore, I filled out the form. It was

Yep, that's right!  Not a drabble or a ficlet.  And honest to God full length fic!  Love and thanks to kilcarr  the fabulous for keeping me on the Brit Pick straight and narrow and to hpca  for cheering me on.  This one is a bit of a departure for me.  It is a Draco fic...

I had a random fantasy about all of the political signs on people's lawns.  How much fun it would be if I had one of those jousting polls (what the hell are they called anyhow?) I could reach out of my car window as I  drive by on the wrong side of the road and knock down the signs.  There could be scoring, like say, 5 points for a State Senator, ( Read more... )

I can see the fireworks in Philly from my window.  This means that everyone will be calling out sick at work tomorrow and I might get some peace!

Seriously, though, it is a great day for a city that is stupid passionate about their sports...

Well, OK, if I got to stay home and not work, that would be better. But still...

A most happy birthday wish to my dear friend kilcarr ! I asked her for a drabble prompt about a month ago because I needed help resurrecting my muse.  It turned into a ficlet and I offer it up as a meager gift for one of the most fabulous, sweet and fascinating people I have ever met.

The problem with LJ: we all think we are so close, but really, we know nothing about each other. So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about. Ask away. Then post this in your LJ and find out what people don't know about you!

Rules:

1. If you're on my friends list, I want to know a few things about you. I don't care if we never talk, or if we already know everything about each other. Short and sweet is fine ... you're on my list, so I want to know you better. You don't even have to answer all the questions, because some of them are lame and some just ( Read more... )
