Happy belated birthday wishes to [livejournal.com profile] simply_fly_away and [livejournal.com profile] feelingcold I hope you both had fantastic days ♥

My boys set off for France yesterday. After days of packing and lists and gathering the stuff they needed -- also ironing creases in the stupid neckers multiple times, something I'm trying to block out -- Corey still managed to leave his sleeping bag behind. Which he found out at the meeting site for the coach and meant him having to be driven back by a scout dad and just getting back in time.

It's so quiet without them here and while I'm going to enjoy the time to do what I want I'm going to miss them. Heck, I am missing them. The bed was very big and lonely last night, even with Milo sleeping with me.

This morning there was stress when Asda phoned and said there was an issue with my grocery order that was due to be delivered this morning. Well, I say phone but what I got was one of those weird talked text messages saying I had until 9 to sort it out or it would be cancelled. The time they sent the message? 8:15. I called them and it was an issue to do with the debit card, which is in James' name, so they wouldn't talk to me at all. I told them he was out of the country and asked if I could pay another way, but they were having none of it. In the end I had to let the order cancel and reorder for delivery tomorrow, and I really hope that goes through okay.

Still, plans for the day. Writing, reading, watching tv, catching up on emails, chilling with the animals. Not a bad way to spend time at all.

[livejournal.com profile] erilyn posted some excellent gifs today, including some that gave me much glee. Mikey with his tambourine! Way hugs with stealth FOB.

To end, the meme that's been going around lately.

Comment with a request to see absolutely anything on my computer. My desktop, my documents, my bookmarks, my inbox, secret stash of pornography, latest works in progress... whatever you're curious about, and I will respond with a screenshot.

ETA: I zipped up and uploaded my folder which has bandom cover versions in it. It's here if anyone is interested.

How about your inbox?

I'm sorry you are going to miss your boys, but I hope they have a fabulous time.

And stupid grocery store.

I'm sure they'll have a blast, and while they are a miss I'm enjoying the quiet time too.

Dude, seriously. I wanted to kick the man I was talking to. Just send my food already!

I like your classy edits. It makes me think the CIA/MI5 have been at the document, hee.

Quiet times are good. I don't plan on leaving the house for the next 3 days, myself.

I'm sure withholding food is against the Geneva Convention. *g*

Ahahaha. Well, they wouldn't get anything interesting from my in box. Maybe that I talk to you a lot *g*

YES!

Also, the window cleaner is here now and he uses this huge ass brush with attached hose. He stood on the path and just blasted the window next to me, and it was open :(

Ahahahahaha! I know I shouldn't laugh, but OMG, that is too funny.

You'd think they'd check that in this kind of nice, breezy, window-opened weather.

Believe me, I'd be laughing too. I did once the, the fuck!? reaction was over.

He should check, though. You would have thought it was a no-brainer.

Teenagers! At least he remembered it before they got to France :-)

That's sucks about your grocery order. I hope the new one will work out, we wouldn't want you to starve!

Sounds like you have an awesome Saturday all planned out!

I totally want to see your current work in progress.

Tell me about it! Then he came running in and asked why I'd forgotten to pack his sleeping bag. Which, I think not! it was his responsibility.

Well, I'm not that worried about me starving, but the cats and dog, yeah.

I do. I'm enjoying it immensely so far.

Here you go. You may be able to guess what fic it's for :)

OOOHHH!! I'm so intrigued! Bob and Frank being all domestic and BFFs, so cute! I bet Turlough was hoping for a sneak peek into Gerard and Bob, though. You temptress, teasing her like that!

Ahahahaha. You're probably right.

Frank and Bob are in the middle of having a talk about gifts and how Mikey and Frank have been dating for nine months and four days, and how Gerard is trying to be a big brother and Mikey's all weirded out about that. So Bob wants to strangle himself with his jeans, while also thinking secretly they're kind of sweet *g*

It's a collection of cover songs by bandom bands/artists. Sorry for another screen grab but I couldn't get the list to copy/paste.

Thank you so much! It's going to be a good point of entry into the rest of bandom, I feel. There's so many and so much, I don't know where to start! (haha, I remember a time when I was swearing Bandom Would Never Get Me, and then It's MCR Only For Me. Now I'm watching interviews of Pete Wentz, reading TAI primers and listening to Panic covers. What next? *facepalm*)

That's how it starts. I actually came into bandom through liking FOB's music. Fell hard for MCR but vowed I'd never be into Panic. Yeah...sigh.
