Spirk (with a small dose of Pinto)

Hi guys

I didn’t get a chance to get up a flash today as I went away for a quick weekend. I’m back now and hoping to have a flash up tomorrow. You might get them Tuesday and Thursday this week just because.

March is fast approaching so I’m going to ask anyone who wants to comment which of the following themes you’d like to see for that month:

Starfleet Academy

Older More Mature (as in after the missions are over)

During Regular Service on the Enterprise

More specific themes in any one of those choices will be Hurt/Comfort, Getting Together and Jealousy.

So I just want opinions on the time period for the guys you want to see for March

Appreciate it

Should you need a little Spirk reading material (Evening did mention recommendations) while I work on updating AO3 and my break here continues, I am going to list some of my own favorites of my work and a couple of other non-me

No guarantee for lack of angst.

Me When I was Young

The Orion Conference

Unfamiliar Ache

By others

You have to be signed in for this one, but this is one where she makes Winona a pretty good mother

Hurricane

Not really sure what it is about this one I like so much, but I do

Rhadamantthus

This time I really mean it. Not going to do any flashes for January 2024

I need a break. If inspiration hits I’ll save them for next month, while I contemplate what writing Spirk means to me for this year.

If I get any information on my kitchen I will let you know. Otherwise my goal is to update stuff on AO3.

thank you!

And here we are with another year past and a new one just beginning

I’m behind on getting I Just Want You to Know Who I am finished. I’m hoping to get it done before NYE. I had to go into the office a full day this week and things are still crazy at home and I am also horribly unmotivated.

It will get done though!  

As you know I generally like to keep readers here informed.

I have made the decision to put all my ongoing stories (non Holiday/Christmas) on hiatus until January. I don’t like to do it but there is simply no way to avoid it this year.

I am doing I Just Want You to Know Who I Am and three holiday flashes a week here and that leaves little time for anything else because I gotta have a life too.

And boy is December jam packed. Amusement parks, family get togethers, dinners, getaways, doctor’s appointments, just everything.

Anyway, I will make them all a priority in January.

Thhh-tthat’s all folks

I starting to believe in curses… read on for more

First of all, for anyone wondering, nope, no kitchen. I don’t remember if I showed you one of the pictures of the place, but here it is for your viewing pleasure. The whole kitchen and dining room looks like this.

So,

We don’t know anything yet, alas.

1. the light in my bedroom ceiling burned out. It’s a high ceiling so you have to have a huge ladder to replace it. We have
2. The handle on one of the toilets broke off entirely. Yes, we replaced that too
3. Last night we come home from doing laundry at sister’s place and we go to put on the heat as it was chilly. Cool air is blowing. Yes from my brand new as of July HVAC system. I called this morning. They are coming tomorrow afternoon to check it out. I am not amused. I am miserable the least give me some heat for goodness sake.
4. One of the living room lights was burned out. Sigh. Replaced.
5. After work I went to watch TV upstairs, TV would not come on. I checked all plugs, all seemed fine. Still wouldn’t come on. I was getting frustrated. So finally I decided to check the batteries on the Roku remote. Replaced him. TV came on.

Anyway, I am beginning to feel like I could be in the movie the Money Pit

This too will pass I suppose

to all my American friends

I hope you are able to spend it with those you love

1. I will have a flash up tomorrow
2. I hope to get a Pinto flash up for next week
3. My leak has finally been fixed ($1100 later), yes you read that right
4. They might be able to take the noisy blowers drying what remains of my kitchen away tomorrow
5. Then, well, I don’t know what’s next after that, I’ll keep you posted
6. I had planned a couple of days away before all this for Sunday and Monday nights, so I am still doing that.
7. Um, I think that’s it for now
