Well, nothing new, honestly...

[wiseheart]

... just trying to keep tab on myself. Work is so la la, could be better but it could also be worse, so I'm not complanining.

I think I'm just about to give up on the Edhellond ficathon. The 3 of us who'd be willing to do something to celebrate our 10th anniversary are simply not enough. Not if nobody else give a flying... you know what. Ah, well, it was too good to work anyway.

OTOH, I'm finally getting a new bed. the_wild_iris and ithilwen have seen the bedroom monstrosity, so they know it's time for a change. The new bed will be slightly less monstrous, with hopefully a harder mattress, which will be a Good Thing for my back. Not that I'd have back problems, thank goodness, but I'd like to stay that way. I prefer giving back rubs to all my colleagues to being dependant on such things myself.

Other than that, I'm simply tired and disappointed on many levels. But that's life.

Sorry to hear about the ficathon! {{HUGS}}

But a new bed + mattress is good news! (Your description of the old one was very vivid! XD)

Yeah, the thing with the ficathon breaks my heart. But you can't make people care for things, can you?

As for my bed, it's EVIL! I tell you: EVIL!!! There's no place where there weren't bronken srpings, waiting to burrow into my poor, abused flesh. The day when I get rid of it will be a day of joy.

Not to mention that it was ugly already when I got it. Stupid carpenter made something entirely different than what I had in mind, and it cost a batch of money, too, and I've hated it for uncounted years.

I did post about the ficathon on my LJ and am still trying to think of a Ranger story. I think people like contests best of all.

Yes, I saw it and I'm grateful. I'll try to write my own story anyway, too. jenn_calaelen mentioned something about politics and culture clash, so I might write something to an umbar-story-in-planning if I can.

Edited cuz my Firefox is evil, too.

that would be very shiny! :)

Oh, goody! I was thinking of a nice Princess of Dol Amroth versus Dark Elf scene. Would that do the trick for you?

[jenn-calaelen.livejournal.com]

That sounds very interesting! *feeds plot bunny* ;)

*hugs*
It is sad that aren't more people interested, but I intend to try and write for it (I like your prompt :) ) - and deadlines are good for me.

Yay new bed! Hope it is nice and comfortable.

So do I. I had the chance to try it - and the mattress - out, but you know how it is: you'll only know once you've actually slept in it.

That is life indeed. Hopefully some tales will make it better.

New bed? YAY!!!

Goodness for the back is goodness for everything else!

Sorry the ficathon didn't work out. I will still happily take a request from your happy self once you have slept a good night's sleep in the New Bed of Blissful Renewal!
