*OMG RELIEF*

I did our taxes today. It took ALL DAY -- from 8 am until 3 pm -- but they are done. *Whew* I feel like my brain melted. Huge relief to have them over with, though. :-)

ETA - I cried THREE TIMES in sheer frustration during the process, but flaming_muse made everything better because that's what she does. *Loves on fm*

Five Favorite Fics meme

soft_princess tagged me. :-)

Post a list of your top five favorite fics you've written, regardless of fandom or the reason you love them. This isn't about the BEST things you've written, but what you LOVE most. Then tag five other people to do the same.

Act of Nature, co-written with janedavitt. Giles/Xander. I adore writing with Jane -- she's so easy to work with and I think we've really challenged each other while having incredible amounts of fun at the same time. This is also the fic that gave us our beloved John (and, some time later, Nick.) Giles and Xander were just so compelling in this story, the setting inspired us, and really there's just nothing about it that I don't love.

Reality Bends, co-written with flaming_muse. Spike/Wesley. Technically this isn't a story, exactly, but it was a daily presence in my life for an entire year and it means *so* much to me. It's not perfect -- it's an RPG, so by its very nature it can be repetitive and in need of editing, but none of that matters in the grand scheme of things. I love it.

(Wow, this is really hard. I only get to choose *5*?

On Life and Living. (SGA, John/Rodney Earth AU.) I love this story because it was incredibly fun and fast to write. I didn't stumble, the characters did what they wanted and took me along for the ride, and Rodney was so rude most of the time that I found myself grinning like a goon on multiple occasions.

Let the World Spin. Spike/Dawn, post-apoc. There are so many things I love about this story -- the action, the way the plot moves them along from location to location, the way Dawn grows up.

Change of Heart. There's no way I could do a top 5 list and NOT include my original OTP, Angel/Wesley. This story took them into the Wishverse, and the setting shaped Wesley into someone I hadn't expected but really, really enjoyed, and of course there was a good dose of h/c, which always makes me happy.

I'm tagging janedavitt, cheesygirl, vylit, moonlettuce and justhuman. (But no one should feel obligated!)
