If you read my last post you'll have seen the story about my in laws. Well, a woman's magazine phoned the SiL asking if they could feature her story and they'd pay her for it. Another magazine contacted the MiL too but she doesn't want to do it. Hearing this James got very excited and immediately started wondering if they'd want his story, about having to decide to amputate his leg and struggling to prove himself as a capable person despite prejudices, things like that. We were shopping earlier, standing in the queue, he looks at me and says 'you write, you could send in a good story, just don't include any gay porn'. Because I'd so write to a magazine about James' life story and slip in some gay porn. I swear he's not right in the head at times. So yes, he really wants to do this and it's my job to look through the magazines, select one then tell his story. Oh joy.

The Worst Case Scenario challenge is due very soon and there's no way I'll be able to do my story for it. I feel bad, it'll be the first challenge I've ever not delivered on, but as it stands I have about half a page and that's it. I do have an idea and even have the story plotted out but I just don't have the time to do it justice. Which is a shame as I think it would have worked nicely. Then again, maybe it's for the best, fandom may not be ready for Lance to be blown up by a mine.

I hope you all know how fabulous [livejournal.com profile] madame_d is, because she mailed me to let me know Lansync3 is posted and specifically that it contained Chris/Nick rimming which is just.... *flails* I love people who know what I like *g* Of course I now have to uphold my end of the deal....eep.

Now I need to beg help from people who use the torrents. I use Azuerus and it works fine, I get good speeds but the problem is it's crashing my computer, over and over again. I've googled the problem and tried a load of fixes but it's still happening which is really annoying. So yes, does anyone have any suggestions? Related to the torrents, I've Supernatural to watch once I've picked up Corey. I've heard good things about the show so I hope it lives up to the hype.

Before I go, for anyone that wants a song they can associate with me have Savage Garden's To the Moon and Back. I love SG so picking one song was really hard, but in the end I ended with this one because it appeals to my little sci fi loving heart.

I had a similar problem with BitLord, it would make my computer drop its connection to broadband all the time. I got so annoyed with it I went back to Bittornado, which I have never had a problem with. Anyway, this is my long winded way of asking, if you find a solution to your problem, could you let me know too?

Good luck with Jame's biography article and trying to stop the gay porn from slipping in there too *giggles*!

Azureus was crashing my computer as well and I had to hunt high and low for a solution. Are you getting a Driver IRQL Not Less or Equal error? That's what I was getting and it turned out that I needed to update an Intel driver for the network adaptor. Try reading here (http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/bizsupport/questionanswer.do?threadId=631777&admit=-682735245+1126880313045+28353475), and visiting here (http://www.intel.com/support/) for information and a place to get drivers.

I'm 90% sure that the first link is the one that led to me finding a solution. If your problem is different, then I'm afraid I'm no help. Good luck!

Your family is becoming famous! lol And man, you'll totally have to share the story with us if you do write it - that is, okay no you won't have to share with us, but if you want to, I'm sure lots of us would be interested *g* And hey, I bet James would love knowing he has even bigger fans out there :-) Of course, we'll mourn the absence of gay porn, but if that's his wish... well, I guess we just have to suck it up - ha! pun maybe intended re: gay porn *snicker*

Anyway, good luck on that project if you do proceed *g*

The Worst Case Scenario challenge is due very soon and there's no way I'll be able to do my story for it.

Sorry to hear that. When I had to drop out of the Numb3rs Ficathon, I wasn't a happy camper either... maybe next time?

Also I'm curious to see what you'll think of Supernatural and the cesty vibes that go with it.

Cool idea James has there. Good luck with that!

Also, am I in your spam folder again? ;-)

You mean you wouldn't slip some gay porn into James' life story? Terri, I'm shocked and disappointed! (I was gonna say 'you mean there isn't any gay porn already in James' life story?' but we know that'd be silly. He was doomed after meeting you ;)

The family of heros! Woot!! I hope they get many articles written about them. That was a really brave thing for them to do.

An article about James would be pretty awesome, too! You should totally do it.

*dies laughing*

Because, yes, that would be so relevant to the story to begin with.

I cracked up when I read this and ended up wakening Lancecat up with my laughter! One could almost think your husband thinks you have a dirty mind or something. However could he've come to that conclusion :-)

Dude, I think you should totally write James's story and then slip in a paragraph or two of JC making out with Chris.

What do you mean, you can write the story of James's life without gay porn? Chris and JC were totally a *part* of that life! ;)

I love SG so picking one song was really hard, but in the end I ended with this one because it appeals to my little sci fi loving heart.

The Virgin Space Boys!!! Heeeeeeh! I love the US video for it madly because when they finally get contact with the girl, they run to the screen, all that *space* in the warehouse and they stand so tightly Dan's standing at an angle because there's no space for their arms. And, you know, it's the ONLY song in the entirety of SG repertoire that Daniel participated in vocally. :D

I love people who know what I like *g*

*cackles evilly* I only did it because the deal was, 'I will if you will' and now you HAVE to! Bwahaha! :D You're SO writing sex!

Take a break pay well. The best one at the moment though is pick me up - they're paying up to £500 for the stories.

Who knows, maybe the James in your story has some cool friends with the name of Chris and Lance and Justin and Joey and JC *g*.

*snerk* go James!

also? *smooch*

and the only problem with you pulling out of the challenge - which what with the amount of time you've spent in hospital / being ill / dealing with drama is perfectly reasonable - is that I still want to read the story! I am totally not ready to see lance getting blown up by a mine, but ready to cry about it, so .. *sniff*
