My Rambles

Quick Update

I’ve tested negative for almost a week now and I feel good. (Good for a geezer anyway).

This weekend I am off again to a special dinner and overnight trip Saturday for M’s birthday. It’s a little early as it’s at the end of the month but sister and I will be in Vegas for the convention then so we are doing an early celebration. M is staying home with Luna!

In other news, I am so so so busy at work I think my brains are leaking out. It’s stressing me out. I have ants in my bathroom looking for water (with so many states in drought who isn’t), I’ve been trying to lose weight again, and we’re still trying to have a family barbecue (postponed when M and I got Covid) sometime in September.

I’m working my way through stories too. I don’t have time to write anything new right now though I want to. Next update will be The Mysterious One. I hope to finish that one this year finally. But I don’t have time to get to it until next week probably.

Ayi yi. At least my August flashes are done and scheduled!

Here’s a pretty picture!

Coming to an AO3 Update Near You

Time marches on and so do expectations.

My next writing adventure (chapter) will be Our So-Called Life. When last we left our intrepid T’hy’la pair Spock was off to Starfleet Academy, leaving Jim once more behind.

And soon enough I am going to be skipping right ahead three years to Jim being an adult and joining Spock there. I haven’t decided whether to have one more chapter at 15 or skip ahead to Jim going there.

I’m at 37 chapters and I think 40 might be a good place to stop and it would be nice to have three chapters of them both as adults. But it’s not like there’s a rule that says I can’t do 41.

But that might be a few days as I am understandably behind at work and life in general.

Look for that next though!

And as the sergeant used to say at the end of every Hillstreet Blues (old show), “Let’s Be Careful Out There.”

Sunday Rambles

I was in a store yesterday and ta da they already were putting out fall. Yeah I was agog, too. I love fall as much as the next one but sheesh

On the other hand look at this cool flower in the garden section of a hardware store

Anyhow because I need to write MORE (sarcastic) I am writing a new song fic/five story thing. It’s being proofed and when it’s ready I hope to post the first chapter soon.

Real Quick

The over time over the next few months is going to be more hours and more complicated than I thought initially. I may be fairly scarce but I will do my absolute best to give you content in fics when I can. Nothing is abandoned and I will finish everything and do updates. I promise.

But it’s a good thing I said I would only do Fridays for June. We’ll see for July.

Here’s a picture of the dessert I had Sunday night for my latest little getaway. Pretty huh? Chocolate mousse and ice cream.

My June Rambles

Gone again Sunday and Monday.

I worked 11 hours of over time this week. I’ll probably work some more over the next several weeks. I’m beat though but trying to squeeze in updates as I can.

I am working on a 5 Plus 1 story. Don’t knew when it’ll be out for consumption. I’ll probably do a few of these over the next few months as I do enjoy them. This first one is: 5 Times Jim and Spock Were With Other People and the One Time They Were Together.

I’ve been re-reading some old Professor-Cadet stories thanks to Eveningstar continuing that theme after First Impressions. It’s making me itch the write more Starfleet Academy.

But I’m also itching to write something angsty (with a happy ending of course) so we will see. I have all those WIPS to do too plus 3 more flashes for June and the Christmas in July stuff.

Plus later this month, on the 18th, my nephew is renting out an AMC theater for friends and family to see the new Jurassic Park movie for his birthday (36 I think). And at the end of June is Morro Bay. Busy always busy.

Don’t you worry though content is always coming!

See you sometime next week on the blog that’s it for now

May 2022 Walk With Me

It’s been a while so I thought I’d get some pictures up of May here in So Cal. How long will this last considering we are on mega water restrictions? Who knows.

In other news, I am going to be working a lot of Over Time at work on a project for a few months so that’s going to cut even more into my writing. Sorry to say.

Someone commented recently about me working on Spirk fic on AO3 for pretty much a decade, which is close to true (9 years in August) and though they were complimentary it also got me thinking. How long is too long? I don’t know.
