I won this month's fic contest over at
snapecast with that story from
jothanbar's bunny. I'm floored. I thought it was good, but not that good, and I certainly felt like it wasn't stylistically acessible.
*dances around*.
In other news, I would like to stop being woken up in the middle of the night by things including, but not limited to the heat, and my computer randomly turning itself on at 5am.
JKR reading tonight. got all my stuff on a hanger to schlepp on the subway. Went with the heals and black slacks option. I am wearing said heals and slacks to work, but have rulled up and safety pinned the slacks, so I can at least be in shorts most of the day. Doing a stionary store run in the late afternoon to start working on thosde Malfoy-Black wedding invitations for Descensus, and, thank god, professionals are coming to look at Kali's Internet connection tomorrow. I also have to get started on my s00per-secret and fairly insane (but perhaps the funniest thing I've ever done) Descensus-related project for Narcissa's birthday (August 31st).
Finally, a nice Times article on historical alchemy that attempts (although dosn't entirely succeed) in not being all "*giggle* look-at-the-dorks-studying-dorky-things": http://www.nytimes.com/2006/08/01/science/01alch.html

Aug. 1st, 2006 12:02 pmthe line between dedication and insanity can be accurately marked by many things, not limited to, but certainly including, carrying that damn Snape coat 8 blocks to the subway in a 113-degree heat-index day without letting the fabric touch my nasty sweaty skin.
