I have another rec. Not Afraid To Keep On Living. I was extremely lucky to be able to read along with this as [livejournal.com profile] saxihighlandck was writing. It's her first big bandom story and it pulls you in and delivers one heck of a kick. Please, read the warnings. Then go read and feed, tell her how great she did.

Last night I got my [livejournal.com profile] bandom_hc posting date, next Tuesday, one day after my [livejournal.com profile] rpf_big_bang posting date. I was highly amused when I saw because I'd been suspecting that would happen for a while.

I don't think I mentioned it on here but I did pick up a prompt at [livejournal.com profile] bandom_au, one where Bob is a preschool teacher. My last two stories have been a touch angsty so that seemed like a nice change of pace. Yesterday I started plotting it out in my mind and ended up with a ridiculously large cast of characters and an actual plot that ends up with a fund raising concert that includes Mr Bob coaching his class as they bang out a song on plastic drums and bowls. There's also a dog, hamster, finger painting, necklaces made with pasta, story time, naps and misunderstandings involved. I don't even know myself any more.

In non writing news. Lately my family are having a streak of bad luck health wise. My sister broke her foot, my nanna damaged her knee, Corey's off school with an upset stomach and two night ago Milo went to jump onto the shelf above our bed, fell and scratched all the way down James' face. Which isn't serious as such but he wasn't at all pleased.

Our Sky plus box has been acting up, too. Sky says the only option we have left is to do a total wipe so we've been trying to watch everything left on there. It means I'm losing the show where Corey's class was on tv and all the music shows I tend to watch often. No doubt those will be shown again, but Corey's class, not so much. I'll be so annoyed at Sky if we do this and it doesn't work, but we have to try because right now the only way things will record is if reboot the box before anything that's scheduled to be recorded, which isn't convenient at all.

Llama hugs are the best hugs.

My brain wasn't switched on for a moment there and I was thinking how weird it would be for Jon Walker and Mikey to be brothers. But your version is much better, especially with the addition of kittens.

Well, yes. The Jon and Mikey WayWalkers. Remember them? Hee. Okay, I don't know. It made me laugh, but I might be delirious. :D

*more hugs*

Sad thing is, we know he'd be dressing that kitten up in no time at all.

Mikey WayWalker has to be one of the best names ever!

That kitten would have no chance at all!

*curls up with you*

Mikey WayWalker makes me want to sing that "Don't walk away, Renee" song, only with Mikey instead. Guess you'd have to sing it with a weird accent on the "Mikey".

Hmm.

"Don't Walker Way, Mikey..."

(I didn't get a lot of sleep last night. Definitely delirious.)

I have no idea about the song but I'm laughing about it anyway. It's the Walker Way that does it *g*

Not delirious, fun. Still. *smooches you just because*
