Bistocon—what a blast. I live for these weekends, immersed in fannish love for Bodie and Doyle. I literally find pennies on the ground (and the occasional nickels and dimes) to save up for going to cons.

Lots, lots going on, much boring medical issues and a Professionals con coming up, so I am thrilled.

One of my favorite S&H writers has desperate medical issues--everyone in her family is ill, causing financial hardships. If you could help, it would be much appreciated.

Thank you so much!

The series got cancelled after only 13 episodes and I am bummed. It's been a long, long time since I liked a show this much--the whole cast are great. And of course, since all dramas these days end on cliffhangers, we will never get a resolution! My brain is swirling with ideas on how to fix this and I do NOT need another fandom to write in.

May 4th celebrated as Star Wars day tickles me to no end. It makes me happy to unite in the love of the Star Wars universe, especially due to a pun. Puns are everything to moi. I am wearing my Han and Chewie piloting the Millennium Falcon into hyperdrive and encountering the Tardis in front of them t-shirt.

The mother of a Starsky and Hutch fan is quite ill and in hospital. The family has no savings, and she requires long term IV med care. Send prayers, good wishes, or even a small donation, if you are able.

Lately, I have this decidedly odd sensation of walking in my own footsteps.

Our friend Anna has recovered from her surgery in December but her mother's health has gotten much much worse. If you can give, or just send good thoughts, we thank you!

And actually to anyone who reads my stories, but those Lewis fans have knocked me down with a feather.

Exactly one year ago, I posted a story in AO3: How Much More Dear--and so far, it has 104 kudos, more than any story I've ever posted, including some much longer Starsky and Hutch.

Five days ago, I posted my latest fic in Lewis: A Lonely Lifetime and it already has 34 kudos. WOW.

My stories were never in the blockbuster fandoms like Marvel where they get hundreds of kudos, which was fine--I am grateful for each and every reader of each and every story.
So thank you for reading my fic. You make me smile.

Shudder--just watched the episode from last night, surely one of the creepiest of all eleven seasons. Mulder and Scully encounter AI with nearly dire consequences--and until the machines actually seemed to come alive, it was all so very familiar. We've all dealt with robot calls, roombas, automated payment, computer voices on the phone when trying to talk to the credit card company or bank, electronics at home that won't do what we want them to, and a site on the 'net not recognizing our passwords. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry when Scully kept putting in her birthplace only to have the site tell her it was wrong. Yep, I've had that happen, except it was my mother's maiden name.
