1. Why are the second entries on my main page and friends page floating in swathes of extra white space? Distressing.

3. Went to see a play adapted from Riverbend's blog. Wasn't too bad; what she has to say is good and interesting and powerful so the source material is great, but it's difficult to see how much just speaking someone's words with v ( Read more... )

I am officially an utter utter fool and totally without hope for help; with the tact of George W Bush, the emotional maturity of Homer Simpson and the charm of a toxic waste dump.

Thank goodness for dogdaysofsummer. It makes everything a wee bit less bad.

ROB LOWE IN A KIMONO! *easily pleased*

This is quite possibly the greatest thing ever: LibraryThing (here's my catalogue. Was going to put some sort of disclaimer about heavy library patronage, pennilessness etc, but. Feh. I am indeed illiterate.) Which obviously (yes, *obviously*) leads to the question: what's on Remus Lupin's bookshelves? No 3-for-2 Asda special offers for him, ( Read more... )

Guess the fic! A bit like the guess the song meme. Just a bunch of random recs, really, and if you guess them then you'll have read them already, which'll make them rubbish recs. Hmm, there might just be a wee flaw there. But still. If anyone has a go I'll put the answers up soonish.

So I was wondering what your fandom unpopular opinions are ( Read more... )

Highly recommended: Unrequited by Anais (notmonkey) - the four chapters so far are linked at the bottom of this contents page. Brilliant characterisations of MWPP + Lily. Looks a bit like a Remus-wants-Sirius/Sirius-wants-James/James-wants-Lily story, but the ships are hardly relevant in a way cos IT IS SO GOOD.

Laugh: themandrake

Cry: Scary Monsters by penknife (Remus-centric gen)

Fall in lurve: The Times by imochan (R/S AU)

In front of me is a stick of Dunbar rock, souvenir of a day-trip. The flavour is fruit. The ingredients? Sugar, glucose syrup and *17* E-numbers. Yum!

Three recs: The Line is Fine (The Silver-Top Remix), Wouldn't Be Make Believe (The Mirror, Mirror Remix) and Snowstorm (Softly Falling remix), are all wonderful. Er, they're also the only remix fics I've read :-)

( Also made a list of R/S remix fics )
