- After a big anxiety thing about money this morning, related to the very complicated way pay is calculated for one of my jobs, everything appears to be just fine. This is good, as this is the employment that allows the big frivolous things in our lives, including my custom clothes and our upcoming cruise.

- Patty's given me the go ahead on my little household art project.

- So hey, we just talked on the phone for a bit, which was really nice. I figure we'll talk on the phone only one or two more times while she's in Oman, and then she'll be home. It's warm here today, and I'm ready to be alive and in the world again, and while I'm perfectly capable of doing that on my own, it's hard to feel inspired, when I get the better, with her version soon.

- There's a fencing tournament coming up I'm not eligible to compete in, but I've just volunteered to judge at. This will be good for my return to fencing shortly there after. My body is less happy when it is less strong, and this an amazing discovery, really, when so much of my life, I thought merely to be delicate.

- Still _swamped_ with stuff, but feeling infinitely more capable about it all then I was 24 hours ago. That said, I'm seriously behind on responding to emails and PMs, but hope to be caught up in the next 24 hours. Yes, this is a message to many of you.

- Still waiting to hear about things of marginal bigness.

- Editing! I love being in edits. As much as I bitch about it, and I'm really happen with the new bit of fanfiction y'all that care will be seeing soon.

- Am vaguely amused by fandom folk mistaking John Barrowman's partner for Nathan Fillion; am charmed by the pictures of them kissing at the Priscilla premiere. Am notably less charmed by the fetishization of them or gay folk in general -- believe it or not, it is possible to find something arousing and yet also not reduce it to nothing more than how it amuses you. I'm asking too much of the Internets again, aren't I?

For me, it's goading ANY two actors from a show -- regardless of gender -- into putting on such a display. I mean, at Dragon*Con last year, there was all this audience yelling for a kiss between Nathan Fillion and Morena Baccarin.

Which, OK, they were good sports about it and all.

But I think most fans really don't get that if there is any sort of romantic (let alone sex) scene in a show, it's just the actors doing their job. OK, well, the actors, plus the sound guys and the lighting guys and...you get the idea.

What may come across as OMG TEH HOT to you as the viewer is far from that for the actors involved. My husband, who has worked as a SAG actor, assures me that they really are not the least bit so.

Now MAYBE James Marsters got a hard-on during his kissing scene with Barrowman. Dunno, and really don't either want or need to know. That's between Marsters and that particular part of his anatomy.

But *presuming* that? Oh, just...no.
