Feeling a little bit more accomplished today...
I managed to finish my challenge fic, “Familiar Stranger”. It’s a Star Trek Enterprise/Torchwood crossover for “A Ficathon Walks into a Bar” challenge on LJ. My premise was that Trip Tucker meets Toshiko Sato in a bar. Turned out way different than I expected, but that’s the beauty of writing. I don’t think there’s been a single fic that turns out...

Argh. Being sick sucks. And other thoughts on Palm...
I think part of it is my rheumatoid arthritis flaring up (like I told a friend of mine, Mother Nature needs to turn up the freakin’ thermostat, oh about 20 degrees or so). Part of it is reaction from all the drama of worrying about my daughter (who doesn’t need surgery, YAY!!!) and dealing w/insurance crap. Part of it is not taking care of myself like I should. Yeah, yeah. I’m...

Taking a short break from Twitter...
I’m not planning on staying away long, but I need a bit of a break. Real life has been really stressful lately. Tomorrow my older daughter has her sedated EKG (echocardiogram) at Levine’s Children’s Hospital. She was born with a hole in her heart (between the 2 lower chambers or ventricles, knows as a VSD) and it’s a good-sized hole. The EKG is to determine whether or not...

A Good Day
Spent time at the park w/the family. Baby Girl walked around, checking out the scenery. She got attached to the slides…I swear, she’s an adrenaline junkie. I can see her doing skydiving or something…Banshee Girl ran around, jumped and was generally happy. Mini-Hubby was glad to be out. He was having cabin fever really bad. We got pizza for lunch, and hubs and I went to...
