  • Tina and Toyah are now fully fledged Starwars fans. They both want to marry Luke and Toyah wants a light sabre for christmas so she can fight against the bad guys. Yay!

  • I managed to finish my Spike/Ethan essay on time. It received nice feedback and a few commenters expressed an interest in reading or writing the pairing. *crosses fingers*

  • The whole family wenton a day trip to an amusement park yesterday. Have no time to catch up with yesterday's LJ posts. Hope nothing really important happened. Today I have to gamemaster a fantasy roleplaying session - so I will be away from LJ as well. Ack.

  • Still no news from my dad. We sent him prints of recent photos of our kids. Every time an email drops into the mailbox I fear the worst. *sigh*

  • The book copy of The Celluloid Closet that I ordered second hand via Amazon? The seller sent the wrong book. I can get a refund but the book I want is gone. Ack. I'd so looked forward to owning this book. The only copy listed at Amazon now would cost 40 EUR. Too much for me. :-(

  • I have 90 auctions ending on ebay this weekend. Finger crossing would be appreciated. Anything over a certain amount will go in my fashion budget. I so need new sweaters.

  • We have two invites for Halloween. Whoohooo.

  • Two of my stories got nominated for the Shades of Grey Awards. Whoohooo. They are both in the same category, but what the heck. *dances with joy* Also Knocking on Heaven's Door got recced at BBF. Yay!

  • Am itching to write more Dealing, but unfortunately my day is crammed full with domestic stuff. Bah.

TTFN.

ETA: Tina is crying because she is bored. It's autumn vacation, but our daughter is crying because she wants to go back to school.

I really want to read your Spike/Ethan essay and hope to get round to it next week.

The Celluloid Closet... Is THIS (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/offer-listing/0060961325/ref=dp_pb_a//104-9575365-2281567?condition=all) it?

Paperback version from $1.87, apparently - new for about $20 (16EUR)

Also HERE (http://www.fetchbook.info/fwd_topics/startFrom_9/id_1639427.html)

If you get it, do I get a cookie? ;o)

Thank you. Coool. I ordered a copy. With postage it goes up considerably ($9 just for postage), but still.... Yay! Now keep your fingers crossed that this works. :-)

A cookie? A virtual one? Yes, I can't bake real ones.
But... maybe you'd prefer a drabble?

*hug*

Cookies, drabbles, it's all good. Besides - drabbles do less harm to my waistline.

Glad to help, love

Drabble... what pairing?

I'll leave that to you - I'm sure I'll enjoy whatever perversion deviancy interesting reading matter comes to mind

Congratulations on your nominations! That's wonderful.

Your Spike/Ethan is all starred on my to-read list for the weekend. :D

I'm working on a scene that is mainly about Ethan and Giles, but because of your influence (and for you), I'm trying to work some Spike and Ethan interaction into it. ::grin::

Yay yay yay.
Yesterday I was talking to hubby about love triangles and kita's essay on B/S/A - and the fact that ostensibly the men are both in love with the woman, but that the relationship between the men is more vibrant.

Thoughtful hubby said: so if you say Ethan and Spike are too alike, shouldn't you put Giles into the middle? Shouldn't that spice things up?

Smart hubby. I am beginning to think that a G/E/S triangle with jealous E and S would work splendidly. :-)

Fic update you requested.

Estepheia,

You had asked that I keep you posted if I wrote more of my Thank Heavens for Little Girls fic. I recently posted a little prequel scene, so it doesn't really advance the plot, but sets the stage a bit. If you're interested, it's here.

P.S. I'm replying here because it fits the thread of this discussion. :-)

Take care.

that's cool. how's her reading coming?

Her reading? Theoretically really well. She likes reading to people, but she does not even read comic books just for herself. She likes stories to listen to or watch on TV - reading them does not appeal to her. :-(
Baaaah.
She doesn't understand that you are never bored if you have books.
