pants to match

Thanks for the well-wishes everyone! I had a good b-day. Nothing much spectacular went down, but that's all right. Monday's are always pretty boring. Although I did spill coffee on my keyboard at work, and the Service Desk commended me on being honest when I called for a new one. Apparently, most people don't fess up and just say it stopped working, when obviously something was spilled on it. This is only my second keyboard in five years, so I'm not entirely klutzy *g*

Um. Furry Octopus Sequel is coming along... about 3,000 words now. And I will neither confirm nor deny rumors of robots and babies. *whistles innocently*

My massive, er... let's just call it self-indulgent crossover fic, shall we? has reached 16,000 words, and I still need an ending. And it's such weird crack. I can't stop myself. The entire universe amuses me.

Also? I have really cool non-lj peeps who hang around my journal (although: rags, where have you been? I still have to write you a drabble) and I'd really like to keep anon posting open, so I'd appreciate it if the few wouldn't ruin it for the many. Or however that goes. It's hard to judge a person's tone from a post, but if it smells like sarcasm...

On a related note, I recently actually told someone, for the first time, that I'm "out of the HP fandom" and it kind of hurt. And I'm not entirely out, honestly (DT will still be updated - eventually - and I keep a toe in some communities) but it was an easy, sweeping statement to make, especially since none of my non-lj based WIPs will be updated again.

And Stargate Atlantis essentially owns my soul. David Hewlett keeps it in a shoebox under his bed, and him and Joe take it out and cackle over it all the time (before falling upon each other and getting with the wild monkey sex)

Also, tonight Samantha Carter finally made my Fictional Character Hug Club. It was the episode when Janet died and OMG the tears and the TEAL'C HUG! And she was all teary-eyed with Jack and I didn't once wish Daniel was there!

J turned to me and said: "This is where you and Teal'c peel out with a screech in your GETNGAY mobile" and I said, "But it's Sam! and Jack!" and he said, "You're still totally gay." Awwww. J is such a sensative guy.
