Hi…

I almost feel shy about updating because I haven’t done it in so long.  I am very surprised that I wasn't massively defriended. I got a few emails inquiring about my absence. Well, it wasn't so much an absence, more of a silence.  In early January, the computer I mainly use to go online got some sort of virus (Trojan? Worm?)  that completely fucked with my web browser. It caused a whole host of problems but mostly made the internet useless for anything except browsing. I was able to read and click links but if I tried other things, my entire system would crash. The few times you did see posts or comments from me were those rare instances when my computer was actually working. And then,  I started having complications with my diabetes so I was going to the doctor frequently. With the sky-high medical bills and me having no insurance, I couldn’t justify the 50 bucks to fix the computer until this weekend.

In other RL news I am completely in lust with my maintenance man. There is something about him that turns me into a puddle of goo. I'm seriously thinking about breaking shit just so he has to come to my apartment and fix it. He has a mullet though. I don't mean one of those maybe mullets like Patrick Swayze sported in Ghost. This is an all out mullet. Very short on top and very long in the back. And you know, I am so in lust that I almost don’t care. Thankfully, he wears a hat all the time so I can delude myself into thinking it's just long hair pulled into a ponytail.

On the fandom front, updating TMTM is my top priority now that I have a fully functioning computer. I have also written about half of my L/Hr FQF fic. I don't know how people will react to it. It’s not a very sexy fic, in fact, Lucius has never been unsexier. (Blasphemy!)  I think a lot of people will stop reading  once they see how far it deviates from a traditional fan ficcy type romance.

*hugs* Nice to see you back, I've been thinking about you and hoping we'd see you again. :) I'm sorry about the computer troubles - that's just infuriating. And even sorrier about the diatebetes. Is there no way you can afford health insurance? Or can you not get it because of the diabetes? (We don't have it in Britain so I don't really know what it entails or anything)

Anyway, I hope things get easier and we see more of you in future. :)

I know you can relate! I remember all the hell you were having with the laptop.

I can get health insurance but it's too expensive for me because I have two preexisting conditions. Muscular Dystrophy and diabetes.

Shhhhh, we don't talk about it! We don't want to give the precious little darling any ideas ... *strokes laptop and makes affectionate cooing noises*

Ah, I see, I thought it was something like that. *winces* That totally, totally sucks. *pokes America's stupid system, hugs you and sends you good, healthy thoughts*

Blasphemy can be fun sometimes, and it's good to see you around again.

*Hugs* Glad to hear the computer is fixed and that you are doing better. :) You have to do what you have to do and RL is way more important than this.

I'm so glad to here TMTM will be updated. Yay!

As for your new story, I like seeing things from different angles, so I think it will be interesting. Of course, it's very easy to find a different angle here as there is not a lot of HG/LM fic out there, which is why I like it so much.

Welcome back

*hugs back*

Yes, the rareity of fic is both a blessing and a curse when it comes to L/Hr. It's easy for writers to do something new (at least within the ship) but when you just want to settle back and read, the pickings are slim.

Stop reading? Pish-posh! Half the fun of slogging through fic archives is finding deviant takes on an ideea!

That's true! I just think a majority of people won;t want to read about this particular Lucius and Hermione, no matter what situation i put them in.

Woohoo you're back...

Computers can cause extreme insanity when they dont work properly... My Internet is off at home at the moment so I'm traumatised about that... I'm posting this comment at work (Don't tell anyone ;)

Well You've told us your embarrasing Mullet man love story so I shall make you feel less embarrased and tell you that I think David Bowie looked hot in the 70's with his bright red mullet...
