What the hell day is it, anyway?

Wednesday. I can never keep track.

The boy and I went out to do some errands this morning, including picking up some photos we had made and a trip to Target for reasonably priced antihistamines and some photos frames. Because I'm easy, I also bought the boy a car wash toy for his collection of Matchbox and HotWheels cars -- he used to have a cool track thing for them, but it broke, and it's nice to have something to DO with all the annoying little cars. Because I'm not particularly mechanically inclined, it took me ages to put the darned thing together. Ugh. With the boy breathing down my neck the whole time: "Is it done? Mommy? Is it almost done?" He's been playing with it off and on since we got home, though, so I think it was a good purchase despite the 'real water and soap bubbles' that are methodically soaking through my placemats one by one.

I'm working on one of my McShep stories again. I think it's an example of my contrary nature -- because I've been left with the impression that SGA fandom is unwelcoming of newbies and so cliquey that only the BNFs 'should' be writing fic, I feel the need as a newbie-and-non-BNF to write fic. And post it. If anyone doesn't like my fic or characterizations or whatever, that's their perogative, but no one can tell me what to do. Um, except my betas, because they are invaluable and I lovesss them.

Hey sweetie, I'm very glad to see you getting into writing SGA fic! You got me addicted to the fandom in the first place with all your lovely recs and now I can't get enough! So, it's brilliant that my favorite writer is writing in my new favorite crack, hehe. If you need something betaed let me know (well, I can do grammar stuff, anyway. I've only watched 5 or 6 eps so far. :-P )

FYI - I've pretty much got my AIM (ginny1810) on all the time now since T started college, so you can catch me anytime during the day if you need something looked at or if you just want to catch up. :-)

*smooches!*

*Smooch* I might have something for you to beta soonish, then!

I'll try to catch you on IM some time in the next couple of days.
