Life as usual...

[tarotgal]

Life's pretty much doing the usual thing here. I called about donating blood on Sunday. There's a blood drive at my local library- which is fantastic because the 4 blood donation centers in my area are all not even in my city and most aren't in my county. Which, I suppose, is why they have a roaming bloodmobile or two :-) And the library is a 10-15 minute walk from my house, which is nice. I'll probably walk over and then have someone pick me up if I can't walk back. But I should probably be fine. I used to walk home after giving blood back when I was in my college town and that was a 30 minute walk on a good day. ANyway, I've never given blood here before but I assume it's no different from the Red Cross. And I'm glad to be of service. Their website says they have less than a day's supply of blood for my blood type. Which makes me feel restless and a bit guilty. So this is good. Plus free orange juice! So that makes me very happy!

Right now the strategy I'm taking with my rec journals is posting whatever pops into my mind whenever it pops into my mind. Lots of things out there right now. But as more gets posted, I'm sure I'll rec more recent things as well. I'm kind of having fun re-living fics as they pop into my head, demanding to be recommended! LOL

And the end-of-year challenge. Need to get started on that soon. I have a couple bunny ideas. Must make a list. Haven't heard from Annalisa in a while (though I expect she's got quite a lot going on at the moment, and this is the last place she needs to be using her time up on!). But it would be great to get that up and started so as not to have to worry about it.

And y'all need to stop writing fics! LOL! Am starting to feel over my head with coding for the archive. Every time I think I'm catching up, I wake up the next morning to find 2 new fics posted. LOL No, really, I don't mind. It's just a lot of stuff I need to catch up on after my month off with sneezy Obi. Mmm. I like the sound of that... and, speaking of which, I fleshed out that Obi-fic bunny that popped into my head a couple days ago. It's going to be long. And angsty. And I'll probably never, ever get the time to write it, let alone finish it. But it's a very yummy bunny and it's been sneaking into my thoughts a lot today as I was driving or trying to stay awake during work.

You know I keep forgetting to e-mail you about this so I'll just comment on it here:

I have some time and would like to help with the challenge if you'd like me to. I've been getting better and better with these kinds of things through out the year and am excited about the things I've learned. I don't know what I could do to help but would like to if you'll have me.

Yup, so there it is before I forget again. I think you have my e-mail if you'd like to get in touch with me that way.
