Tragic facts

[lesbiassparrow]

1. Work has now blocked livejournal. And rocketboom. And pandagon. And apparently thinks all the ads on The Guardian's site are dodgy, because they come up with large warnings about things. God knows what will be next to disappear

2. This matters because summer is over and school has begun once more

and

3. Someone nearly killed me as I was crossing the road. And I mean nearly killed: a car ran through a stop sign at about 50 miles an hour (in a 30 zone), honked me. If I hadn't leapt back and landed on my rear it'd be a dead person typing this now as it passed within 2 inches. Did it stop? Of course not; just kept on going on its merry way. Feckers.

And meyerlemon is hosting a shameful things you would like in fic anonymous thing. I just admitted that I wanted something that sounds like a crossover of The Office with North and South (the BBC Gaskell one). Please go over there and insist you want something even worse or I will die of the shame: Meme of fic shame here

Trust me, mine are far more shameful.

Really? Do tell! :)

I feel I am steps away from wanting a high school story with my longing for a 19th century version of a sitcom....

I posted them over there under my name.

And I'm almost a little sorry I wasn't anonymous.

I didn't think those were bad at all. HP and Star Wars? Why with all the Harry Potter fic has someone not crossed them?

[luftballoons.livejournal.com]

The Legend of Zelda (video game) Star Wars one was far more nerdy simply because it's a video game.

HP/SW is not too out there.

Road to Avonlea time travel is just cool, yo.

[luftballoons.livejournal.com]

Also, I've come up with more ideas for HP/SW and have posted them in the meme. Let me know your thoughts ;)

Re:1 : Man, this is BAD! I don't usually use LJ at work in my working hours, but like to stay after work for half of an hour to get the updates. These people are cruel!

[lesbiassparrow.livejournal.com]

Hurrah! I think they've unblocked it. And I don't use LJ much during work but I am often here late and it gives me a break. Also they had blocked all blogs so nearly all my reading matter on the net had vanished in one swoop!

3. Glad you're still here.

So I am! It was a close call - the closest I've ever had. And though I was lying on the ground on my back they didn't even stop but just continued on their way.
