Hi! I haven't been around much lately, as my hard drive crashed two weeks ago, and between one thing and Dell Technical Support Sucking Away My Will To Live another, it didn't get fixed until Wednesday, and then there was Thanksgiving. Due to awkward cubicle/computer placement, going on LJ at work was awkward and stressed me out ("Footsteps!!! Close the porn window!! Abort Abort ABORT!!!") more than anything else. On the plus side, I read a lot more books than usual.

I finally got a new hard drive over the holiday, but I did lose all my files, saved fics, vids, pieces of WIPs that were never likely to see the light of day anyway, etc. I've been building an offline fandom library for YEARS, so that's been a been a bit of a wrench, but you know, I'm feeling rather philosophical about it, most of it I can get back, and what I don't remember to track down probably wasn't worth saving just in case I get trapped some where without internet access and only my laptop for entertainment. Also, thank you, del.icio.us. And Google Docs. And that software that lets you rip music from your ipod to your computer.

Anyway, just wanted to say hi, and I know I update sporadically even with a working computer, but I'm not dead, and I missed you all and my icon is telling the truth for the first time in weeks and I'm very excited about new SGA this Friday and Thanksgiving was nice and yay.

hahahaha to the porn. Too bad my desk job these days consists of ceaseless typing, or ceaseless letter opening, or general ceaslessness, so it's hard to steal a few minutes for my illicit internet viewing.... which usually consists of Overheardinnewyork....

See you soon!

Thanks, Petra Meg. (You have no idea HOW confused I was for a second when I was scrolling through my email notification.)

Haha! I bet! I can't imagine Petra saying any of those words...except maybe "regularly scheduled porn." Maybe...

I know! So excited. John Barrowman was in this GLBT magazine's top list of people they loved. Damn not so straight.
