GIP!!!!! I finally get to do it!!!! YES!
Happy birthday to me... I finally bought my birthday present to myself- a paid account. Whoohoo! I'd been thinking "nah, I'm not a computer geek, I don't need one"... but icons really make one reconsider. Especially when you look at the price of an account anyway.
And look what I finally got! An Accio Bananas icon that
ladynoodle made me! Now I need to go find more icons. MORE, I tell you, MORE!!!! I can have a WTF icon! I can make a MRFH icon!
If you can't tell, I also made pecan pie squares today for a dinner I'm leaving for in- oh- a few minutes, I guess. I don't make them often because my husband isn't a big fan. He's not a sugar eater, and pecan pie does have quite a bit of sugar. Of course I had to test them and make sure they were appropriate for consumption. For how crappy my night went last night, today is turning out pretty darn good, I must say.
Thank you to everyone who's wished me happy birthday, btw :) It really means a lot.
And thank you thank you THANK YOU again to
nessa_owen, who wrote me (wait for it...) dominant!Sirius fic. You must read it: it's called Wake Me. I love Nessa's fics because, like me, she can't write PWP- she has to go put that emotional stuff in there. And this is a dominant Sirius/submissive Remus for all the RIGHT reasons- not Sirius being an asshole and Remus being spineless, but because of Remus wanting to give up control and Sirius's need to protect and because they both think it's really, really hot. You can tell from this fic it's not like their entire relationship is always D/s- it's just something they do sometimes.
And yes. I really, really like it. :)
Okay. Now that I'm done reccing porn, I'll be off to the church dinner. Go figure.

That Accio Bananas icon makes me giggle! *is twelve* You know, I did read that fic they wrote for you (I'm so glad you finally got your dom!Sirius/sub!Remus fic, I remember you asking me if I knew any fic like that some time ago), but I guess I'm too attached to my idea that Sirius is Remus's lapdog. :P It's an awesome fic, but it kinda doesn't work for me :S
Hey, I'm asking again cause I just want to bug you and all, can I draw something for you as a birthday present? Could be anything, doesn't have to be shippy or R/S or even R or S.
(Hm, I always say that and people keep asking for R/S, or R/J, or J/S or something like that. Doesn't anyone want me to draw, dunno, a Weasley, or some OTHER character? lol)
no subject
Date: 2005-11-10 02:46 pm (UTC)Ooooooh. Can I give you a couple options? (Obviously, not all of them, but I know that sometimes one thing will inspire people better than others.)
-The Christmas cake scene in AIL 6, where Remus and Sirius are sharing a piece and sitting in front of the fire together.
-Uncle Alphard. (I've never given a physical description of him, so I don't know if that makes it easier or harder)
-A Harry and Ron non-shippy, best friends picture.
Any of those would be AWESOME. Thanks! ::hugs::
no subject
Date: 2005-11-10 06:04 pm (UTC)So that one I can probably do it.
Uncle Alphard...Hm...Maybe. Did you ever give at least one detail? Anything at all would help. >P
Harry and Ron, that one I can do it, I do like them and I don't really like them as a ship >P (Ron's too hetero, in my opinion).
no subject
Date: 2005-11-11 12:35 am (UTC)Yeah, if I was going to slash Harry, Ron is my choice, but Ron pings me as hetero too. (So does Harry, so I very rarely read Ron/Harry, but that would be my Harry slash-ship of choice.) But I adore their friendship. I like the Trio, but Harry and Ron... they're just cool :)
no subject
Date: 2005-11-11 03:24 am (UTC)I do ship H/G, but it's only gotten canon in the last book >P
I'm picturing Alphard, I would guess he looks kinda like a more mature sort of Sirius, with greying hair like Remus's...He's around 30, isn't he? Or how old is he?
I'll probably try to draw Damien as well :D
no subject
Date: 2005-11-11 03:58 am (UTC)Damien would be AWESOME. He's definitely supposed to be the Lion Man. Little past shoulder length hair (back in a ponytail, usually), built, and wire-rim glasses. I'd LOVE to see someone's version of Damien!
no subject
Date: 2005-11-11 07:43 am (UTC)Ugh, older people are difficult to draw. Well, at least for me. It'd be quite a challenge though.
Oh, I love Damien! And I know you based him in the Lion Man. And that you wanted to see someone's version of him, that's why I thought of drawing him.
I did the Ron and Harry pic, btw :D
Hm, I'm right now wondering what the heck does 'wire-rim' mean. *gets her dictionary*

no subject
Date: 2005-11-11 12:37 am (UTC)And I'm old. I'm 31. Wow, that's a lot weirder to type than when I was writing I'm 30.
Eek.

Date: 2005-11-11 03:24 am (UTC)It's not that "you're only as old as you think you are" but that "other people only think you're old if you tell them you are" :D
Happy Birthday!!
no subject
Date: 2005-11-11 04:00 am (UTC)Plus, no one ever thinks I look as old as I am anyway. There was a reason I liked being called Doctor at work! Otherwise, people had a tendency to think I was a summer student.

Date: 2005-11-11 04:36 pm (UTC)Yay for your B-day fic! It's nice when you see a fic that addresses one of your favorite kinks in the right way. I hardly ever see mine in fic. Maybe I'm just not hanging out on the right groups to see it. Yet I keep thinking, as far as kinks go it's pretty mild, but why does no one write it more often? Meh.
Yes, B-days w/o kids are good, but B-days with kids? They are the most adorable. :-) (Proudly wears keychain pendant made by my DD) Just wait.
no subject
Date: 2005-11-11 04:48 pm (UTC)Oooh- what are yours? Pretty mild and coming from someone who normally writes plot, I'm always interested in those kinds. After all, I write Sirius-bottoming fic mainly because it's
I definitely have a thing for the dominant Sirius, but so, so often it's Sirius the asshole- not just Sirius dominant. And weak Remus, which I don't like at all. Of course, the amusing thing is there's at least one other person out there with that kink, cause that was one of my assignments.... ::Sighs and laughs::
A keychain pendant does sound adorable. :)

Yes, asshole!Sirius and weak!Remus just. Do. Not. Compute. (sigh) Y'know if we want these things done right we almost have to write them ourselves...
