Because I commented on [livejournal.com profile] elfsausage's post - I'm posting this and am really going to attempt it...

The first TEN five people to comment in this post get to request that I write a drabble/fic of any pairing/character of their choosing. In return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability level.

Except you really don't have to post this if you don't want.

Fandoms: Firefly (you know my pairings), Chuck (Casey/Chuck, Casey/Sarah), Star Trek (Jim/Bones, Gen)

Do you know how long it is since I actually completed a meme someone gave me?

I take this as a sign that maybe I'm finally getting my brain back...

Anyway I don't actually expect you to answer this if you don't want to.

I notice I still have an inordinate number of Firefly icons in my userpics. I have been thinking of an overhaul, maybe even change my default icon...

Meme snagged from [livejournal.com profile] wilyone_24

Post the first line of your 25 last fics. Try to identify a pattern.
I modified the meme slightly since I was under the impression I hadn't written much this year, and just did the 1st line of fics from 2008.Read more... )

And just to kick my muse (I hope)- The first 2 people to ask get a continuation (drabble) of one of these fics!

Stolen from the brilliant [livejournal.com profile] evilmaniclaugh (you should see the answers to hers!) and the lovely [livejournal.com profile] ladytalon1.

I know my track record with answering these memes is terrible. But because I'm trying to lure my muse back to finish my WIPs; I promise to try really hard with this one :) All my fics are listed under the various buttons at the side of my page *begs*

Ask me a question about one of my fanfictions. It can be absolutely anything in any fic and I will tell you the honest-to-god answer. Don’t hold back. Ask about major upcoming plot points if you want to. Whatever you ask, I have to answer truthfully.

It's lunch time and I came back early to write some of my story, but instead I'm doing memes!

Snagged from [livejournal.com profile] maureen. Here's a list of all 80 films that have won the Oscar for Best Picture. Bold the ones you've seen.

I've got to tell you - I may have seen these but it doesn't mean I liked them all :D I've seen 67 out of 80 - I think this is sad...

I wasn't going to do this because it shows how aged I am *leans on cane*. But then I thought - who am I kidding? I'm still the same age mentally now as I was then :) Anyway here's that 80s nostalgia meme courtesy of [livejournal.com profile] bugchiclv and [livejournal.com profile] kingzgurl to name a couple... I totally miss some of the references though.

I'm pretty sure I was tagged by the telekenetic [livejournal.com profile] ladytalon1 :D

The rules are easy, just post 6 things that recently made you happy!

Then tag 6 people and force them to post this meme on their LJs. Because it is good. Everyone needs a little happiness once in awhile.

I won't really force anyone - if you want to do it - please do!!! Anyway here's my list...


1. Watching the little guy participating in the surf carnival today. He's so cute when he's determined.

2. Losing another 500grams - I've lost 13.5 kilos (29.7 lbs) in total so far and am soooo happy.

3. I'm 3 weeks into my new eyes and am seeing so well it's amazing.

4. Seeing my little nephew smiling his gummy smile at me

5. Having my flist around to brighten up my day *hugs you all*

6. Slightly catching up a work - the pile is a lot smaller this week! *dances*

I've been tagged at least 3 times and I keep forgetting to post...

Remember your first LJ? The free one with only six icons? In this meme, you have to choose and post the six icons you would keep if you had no choice but go back to the six limit. They don't have to be in your list of icons you're using right now, but you have to explain why you chose those specific six. Next, you have to tag six people to do the same.

I won't tag anyone cause I think everyone on my flist has done this. If not - I'd love to see your icons! *suggestive wink*

First can I say - It's too hard!!! *whimper* I complain because my 110 icons are not enough. There's hundreds (a possible exageration) of Jaylee ones alone, then there's all my Arms! ones. If I only had space for six I'd probably change them every day - but here is today's choice...

I replied to [livejournal.com profile] cheshire_monkey and [livejournal.com profile] squish_67, so now I have to post this in my journal!

I will send a handmade gift to the first 3 people who leave a comment on my blog requesting to join this PIF exchange. I don't know what that gift will be yet, but you will receive it within 365 days. The only thing you have to do in return is "pay it forward" by making a similar agreement on your blog.

The "gift" you send doesn't have to be handmade. It can writing, art or whatever

I got tagged by [livejournal.com profile] artemis_prime for this...

Sometimes it's ok to pimp yourself out. Post a list of the top five favorite fics you've written, regardless of fandom or the reason you love them. This isn't about the BEST things you've written, but what you LOVE most. Then tag five other people to do the same. Here's some of my favourites...
