Eta: A very happy birthday to pensnest. You write wonderful stuff, makes the best cake of death ever, and really, are just a cool person. I hope you're having a wonderful day :D

pensnest's dragon challenge has gone live! The stories are here and I'm so looking forward to reading them. The stories are anon for the first week, so it'll be interesting if anyone guesses mine. I know I'll be having a guess at the writers, though only to myself as I seriously suck at matching stories to writers. That's been shown over and over at SeSa time. Now that Dragons have been achieved I need to finish my poor late lambs story. Stop madame_d calling me out as a promise breaker ;)

The weather is so beautiful here at the moment. On Saturday we went to Whitby for the day, complete with full squad of in laws. But it was a good day, lots of sun and sitting drinking coke outside a village pub. Sunday it was a drive followed by a visit to Ikea to check out the sale. Sadly they'd ran out of vegetarian hotdogs, I'd so wanted one too. Yesterday, the BiLs mam came up to visit, so we went to see her then off for a walk at the beach. Such an exciting life I lead *g*

Now I've moved the cat I can attempt to read the flist. Her nails are really sharp and as she loves kneading, so it's like having needles shoved into your skin over and over. I've a low cut t-shirt on and it looks like I fell on a cactus. Or I could read dragons, because. Dragons!

There you are! I was just about to shoot off a "ohmygodwhereareyouiamworried" email to you!

Nope, still here. Just been busy these last few days. Are you around around?

Congrats on finishing your dragon challenge story, sis *g* And aww cute and fun icon too!

Thank you! It was a close thing I tell you. You know when you're writing and distract yourself any way possible because the words aren't there? Well, I hit that spot and good. I had to turn off the internet and just do it in the end. It felt so wrong!

He's the cutest dragon ever!

Oh boy, I know the feeling, do I ever. Some stories write themselves and some other just don't. Those are hell.

It's frustrating because I had vague ideas about what I wanted to do, but of course it didn't happen and I ended up with something quite different.

I wish every story would write itself, sadly I doubt we'd ever be so lucky. Which reminds me, your SPN fic of goodness! I must hit your journal.

Sounds like you had a lovely weekend ^_^! It was gorgeous weather, wasn't it? I've bookmarked the dragons page because I haven't really started my popslash reading yet, and I love dragons so it seems like a very good combination to me ^_~!

It was such a gorgeous weekend, it would have been wrong to stay indoors.

It's an awesome combination, and I'd recommend you read Prone, so very good

dude - I was brave and posted my author guesses - you can at least eamil *me*, right *bats eyelashes*

cats are lovely, but very pointy sometimes.

I've just been reading your guesses. I'll post mine, and if I chicken out you'll totally get an email.

They so are.

sounds like a pleasant weekend. :)

aren't cats fun when they are "kneading"? I still miss having a cat though.

Dragons! yay! I'm slowly reading my way through the stories today. I really think that the medication is doing something to my ability to concentrate. I only hope that my story doesn't reflect that. eeep.

I had an awesome weekend. I missed being online though. *clings to silver*

Cats hurt like crazy when they knead. I had to keep moving her paws because ouch! Moffet isn't so bad but Freesia has claws like hooks.

I'm sure your story will be lovely as always. I wonder if I can guess yours, I've read all your stuff so should be able to.

[ravenbat.livejournal.com]

you're welcome to email me with any ideas of what story you think is mine.

my old cat Jerry was a kneader, but it was never really painful. His sister Jani though, ow ow ow ow.

I miss my cats. *sniffles* :(

How nice it is, At My Time Of Life, to be proclaimed a cool person. *giggles* Thanks. *smooches*

Yay, Dragons! (am frankly a little bit cross-eyed with dragons at the moment, but at least now I can read them all *properly*)

[turps33.livejournal.com]

You're totally a cool person. *mwah*

Your dragon challenge has thrown up some amazing stories. I read them all in a huge lump earlier, when I get back tonight I'll feedback, maybe do some guesses.

It really has. There's obviously something about Dragons. Such a variety, and I can't actually decide on a favourite because there's so much to love.

Well, you know, you said you would and the next thing I know, you're writing TrickyFish. I mean. Duuuuuude. :)
