Cat video - *mmph*

Omigod this is funny... if you want to see some hysterical cat moments, if you trust me (fools ;) and have Windows Media Player, put your email in comments and I'll send it to you.

Yeah. I'm useless after the last week. Utterly useless. Just want to put my head on my desk and sleep.

EDIT: @!@@##!!#@!!! I sent the video from work to my home email and Earthlink's spam protector stripped it out! I have to wait till Monday now to send it. I'm sorry, guys. :( *sigh*

Heidi's Democratic Fic Nominations

You know the drill. Second these nominations in comments, and they'll go up on the Democratic Fic Recs page. Or put in your own nominations. The only person not allowed to nominate or second a fic is me.


heidi8 takes us on a walk through history -

Really Old Fics (in fandom terms):

1. GrimSlasher's Boys' Own Camping Adventure - a Sirius/Remus fic that takes place at the end of the Marauders' 7th year. Email is Quite_Serious@hotmail.com. Summary: Soon after their Hogwarts graduation, the Marauders go camping. Remus and Sirius share a tent. Slashy things happen. This fic was first uploaded on ffn back in August, 2000 and for many in the fandom then, was their first exposure to slash fanfics.

2. LadyNettle's Into The Woods. Bearing no resemblance to Abaddon's fic of the same name, this fic was posted on the HPSlash list starting at post http://groups.yahoo.com/group/hpslash/message/2260 and going through post # 2267.

3. A pair of fics from Hyphen (also at Quite_Serious@hotmail.com - see the overlap?):
a. A Marriage of True Minds - Lily, James and a riding crop, set somewhere during their last year at Hogwarts.
b. The Speculum Curse - The Marauders are all affected by a cursed mirror. ( Read more... )

Honestly - I recommend everything from Hyphen, including the fic with transvestite!snape and the one in which Draco has to explain "wanking" to Goyle.

4. Everything from copperbadge, including All This Time (Young Sev Snape has just gotten his Hogwarts letter, and run away from his squib parents to attend the school he's dreamed about for eleven years. ( Read more... )

and even his unexpected Moody/Lupin post-ootp called "The Fifth Drink". Pay particular attention to his recent About Beds, which is S/R during their schooldays and stay tuned for his upcoming Tonks/Lupin fic, which is previewed here."

Note: longer summaries are cut due to squawks from my friends list. ;)
