Bummed & Request

tarotgalSo I'm pretty bummed this week... not exactly sure why. Work is still great, and I don't think I'm fired from that job after all. I think I'm just tired and sick and depressed. Because there's a lot of fun things happening in my life (day off on Friday, probably going to a Caps game in April, Booksale this weekend at local library, getting my AnySoldier package out, lots of BC books in my mail recently, etc.)
I finally talked myself into going to the Highlander Convention in Vancouver in October. Adrian's going to be there and he wasn't at the con I went to in DC. And now I have a job and can actually afford to go. The VERY COOL extra tour package is, unfortunately, sold out. That would have made my entire life. But I can cope with just a very cool convention experience. HOWEVER, I checked my calendar at work today and our semi-annual board meeting falls during the exact same time. That's something I'm not allowed to miss for any reason. So no convention for me after all. Which makes me VERY sad.
I've been feeling pretty crappy lately, health-wise. I think it's probably just allergies, now that the weather's changing. Stupid freakin not-winter. I think if I ever want to make it through a few months being able to breathe, I'm going to have to move to somewhere colder. I've had a headache for the last 4 days straight, and my ears hurt. Throat hurts a bit, too. Yesterday I was sooo incredibly nauseous for hours last night. Not fun. And I'm just plain tired (5 hrs of sleep every night'll do that)
And the writing thing isn't happening either. I have quick spirts of really good writing, and then days without writing a word. I think the fact that I feel tired and like crap is contributing to that.
ANYWAY... I'd like to ask for some fic recs from y'all. Anyone read anything good lately? Preferably slash, preferably short fics (nothing with more than one chapter because I want quick, instant happy) and preferably HP and SW but any fandom I follow is great. Anything out there I should read? I want to read stuff. Thanks!
