Eulogy for my father
I know I haven't posted here in a long time, but my father died very early on Wednesday morning, and we had the funeral for him today, and I just wanted to save the speech I gave at the funeral.

A call for Stargate SG1 fanfic recs
I keep wanting to post something here, and then not posting anything, because I don't know what to write! It's really difficult to post, after such a long time away, isn't it.
