argh and blargh....

Over fourth of July weekend, I ended up babysitting a four-year-old because my friend's father was in the hospital after a stroke. Then this weekend, the same friend calls me and now *she's* in the hospital with a bacterial infection in her blood. Her poor little daughter is a mess, who is now convinced that if you go to the doctor, you end up in the hospital for days at a time (what with the track record of her dad, her grandfather, and now her mom) so I'm hoping to take her out and cheer her up a bit. She is one of the coolest four-year-olds ever.

And that really sets the tone for the sort of weekend I had.

on the brightside, I did accomplish some writing and got my story for a challenge posted last night.

In case you missed it, please fill out my poll for a week of multifandom drabble-a-thons. And if you could pimp that link out, I'd appreciate it. I want as much input before I undertake this to make sure people will actually enjoy it.

let the good times roll

I'm crazy in the head...

I already signed up for Heroes Big Bang like a crazy person, but now I'm considering playing in Popslash's Bitty Bang. I mean, that was my first hardcore fandom online and I used to write stories that were so much longer than 20K. I mean, I think Rhythm & Blues alone is about 150K. So I'm capable of it if I get an idea. And oh, the days of writing Justin het do tempt me.

Must ponder this a bit more.

woo-hoo

All the oldschoolfic has been posted! And rachel_wilder wrote me a wonderful Party of Five fic set after the series finale. Good stuff.

Now I'm off to read the other stories and crosspost my story here.

Isabel was having the dreams again. She didn’t really need sleep, usually spending the time invading other people’s dreams, and that made the visions all the more strange...
