I think that's all the news that's fit to type. Anything I missed?

Wow. I had some great entries for the Angsty April Fic Fest.

rose_in_texas wrote a Supernatural that had character death, but OH, my word. If you're a fan of the show, you need to read this. So good. And eustacia_vye28 wrote a heart-wrenching Firely fic with River/Jayne. filia_umbrae came in with a last minute Temperance Brennan is an idiot for not laying Booth on her desk and snogging him silly and instead cries about it at night fic. I loved it, truly. Bones and I? Not seeing eye to eye right now. Especially after she said she didn't like one of my favorite bands on Thursday. *grumps*

Sorry. Got off topic. Again. Anyhow, the winner this month is leigh_adams, who came in with a heartbreaking Fleur/Cedric/(Bill) story that made me teary. Congratulations to you, Leigh, and a huge thanks to everyone who entered. I loved them all. I might need your address, Leigh, and what scents you prefer, floral/fruity/musk... etc. :)

MAY'S Contest! I've thought about it, and I think this month will involve individual prompts for all those who want to enter. For example, if you want to write R/P, I might give the prompt: "Perfume." The winner of May's contest will win a $15 gift certificate to itunes. Or if you think itunes is in league with the devil, then Best Buy, whichever you prefer. I'll open it up to all pairings from whatever fandom tickles your fancy. I like a good read, so it really matters little what pairing it is. So come on! If you've never entered, May's your month! Take the plunge!

Some rhetorical, some Socratic, all valid.

Why do the workers finishing the road near my home insist on starting their Earth movers at 6:30 in the morning?

Why can I sleep through anything but that noise?

Why do my children find a way to argue over even things that they AGREE on?

Why do I spend time thinking about people who have hurt me?

Why do I still care about said folks?

Why is it 35 degrees during Spring Break?

Why is it when I can't turn my head, the Chiropractor has taken the week off?

Why is it that some of my dearest friends live so very far away?

What does the color blue taste like?

Why, when I need to hang on for dear life to the barely tangible threads of plot, that my characters want to chatter on about nothing in particular?

Why is Penny dating Leonard when Sheldon is the clear choice? COME ON!

Why won't Bones and Booth JUST ADMIT THAT THEY lurrrrrrve each other?

Why do mushrooms taste so good in everything?

Why, when I KNOW I need a good wine opener, do I CONTINUALLY forget to buy one?

***

I think I'll soldier through with the wine opener I have, have a few glasses, and maybe I won't care about these questions quite so much. ;)

Good day to you all.

So I'm not a fandom hopper. I'm not. I got a livejournal because of Harry Potter fanfiction, and although I'm still a sort of active part of that fandom, I have a new love.

Oh, my heck, y'all. Bones. The T.V. Show. The fanfiction. The characters. I'm HOOKED.

I don't think I've even seen all the episodes, but thank God for TNT. Back to back eps every day. Hee!

And it has nothing whatsoever to do with David Boreanaz. It might have everything to do with Booth, though. I never made it past the second season of Buffy. I tried. (sorry, you BtVS fans. Couldn't do it. Nolan's mocking was loud.) And when watching that. I thought he was cute, if a Angel was a little emo. But Booth (and his belt buckle and his suits)? Very nearly the Perfect Man.

You know, if I wasn't married with the kids and all. And he wasn't... fictional and stuff.

By the by, Christmas was great. The kids made a haul and Nolan got me charms for my bracelet, a watch and *drum roll* A FOOD PROCESSOR. Carrie will no longer have to chop things manually into oblivion. She has MACHINERY to do it for her!

Sorry for slipping into third person. Got a little excited. Anyway, that's it. Just had to squee. Carry on.
