So I've been a very busy bee the last few days.

~I helped alisanne by tagging some of the adventdrabbles from the last two years (which starts again on Tuesday--mark you calendars!! *\o/* ).

~I finished (FINALLY) my Kinky Kristmas fic for daily_deviant (thanks to jadzialove for her expert beta skills ♥)-will email that in tonight.

~I just uploaded a bunch of fic to AO3. I have to say AO3 is pretty shiny. I haven't tagged my fics properly yet. But I did put up my collection of last year's adventdrabbles for example.

Here's my list of works I've added so far. It's really cool to see the variety of fic all in one place. From fluff and romance to chan dub-con incest or bestiality. *vbg*

Challenge #310: "The Unwritten Pairing" This week's challenge might be a bit of a stretch in that you're being asked to write a drabble focusing on Snape paired romantically and/or sexually (but not necessarily graphically) with a character with whom you've never paired him before. (Note: for the fight-to-the-death OTP folks in the community, feel free to tell your drabble from the perspective of the "delusional" imagination of the other party. *g*)

à snapinou. J'espère que tu as passé une bonne journée

have been computerless for several days - took pc to a nice chap who basically did a few checks and told me he could find nothing wrong with it - it started for him and behaved like a good little computer. Naturally, when I get it back, it freezes on the first attempt, but with a few kicks and a lot of swearing, it does at least start.

After being told by one boffin that the motherboard on my laptop was dead, I asked same chap to recover the data from it - which he did, only guess what? Laptop worked fine for him too. Unfortunately, the mains cable is rather dodgy and needs replacing - but that shouldn't be too much of a problem. So I'm 85 Euros down and not that much better off as yet.

Apologies to anyone whose birthday I may have missed, and to those who are poorly, best wishes for a speedy recovery.

I was just doing tech support over the phone to my parents, trying to splain about gmails spam filters being different to windows mail filters...

And Dad said: you're wonderful. You're stroppy and sneering but wonderful.

Hee, I am Snape.

It's a weekend of tidying and throwing things away, and I'm going to buy myself a book reader just because.
