Graduation was awesome. Tim won a special scholarship award, which was really cool. Was reminded of some of the reasons why I love living here: There was a train that went past the school during the graduation & the speaker had to stop speaking until it was done (the track goes right behind the field where we were all sitting). Most everyone there was in jeans. My kids were running around without shoes. The guy that was taking pictures of the ceremony for the local newspaper took a picture of my boys chasing bugs on a wall (Davey caught a frog first thing and had it in his pocket; they were trying to catch him some dinner.) But it was nice. Pics under the cut, me in a dress for the second time in a week:







And my brother:







Seen everywhere but stolen from wendy and anael


Four jobs I have had in my life:
1. Shipping Department of a warehouse
2. Customer Service in a call center
3. Bank Teller (official title was Member Representative b/c it was a credit union)
4. Working at the car dealership, where my job was very unspecific and lots of fun

Four movies I would watch over and over:
1. the LoTR movies
2. Stand By Me
3. Sandlot
4. Latter Days

Four places I have lived:
1. Salem
2. Roanoke
3. Blacksburg
4. Oak Park (ok, I know that's cheating since Oak Park is the apartment complex where I grew up and it's in Salem, but I don't have a fourth place to list *g*)

Four TV shows I love to watch:
1. Supernatural
2. Crossing Jordan
3. L&O SVU
4. The Dead Zone

Four places I have been on vacation:
1. Gananoque (okay, i could've just put Canada, but I like the word Gananoque)
2. Florida
3. Virginia Beach
4. St Louis

Web sites I visit daily:
1. http://www.livejournal.com/
2. http://owl.tauri.org
3. http://www.msn.com (it's the homepage on this computer, so visiting it is inevitable)
4. um, right now... there's not a fourth site I visit daily. I lose. *g* Ask me again when I have my own computer back

Four of my favorite foods:
haha, I love food in general. Picking just four favorites is hard!
1. Steak (I'm craving a ribeye)
2. Mashed potatoes & gravy
3. Ice cream
4. French Toast

Four places I would rather be right now:
1. anywhere but here
2. back in bed
3. the river
4. um... the SPN Sleepover? :P



And the inevitable fic recs:

SPN: First Cut is the Deepest by eloise_bright
Humorous, teenage Dean and Sam ficlet

HP: How I Met Your Mum by celisnebula
Andromeda Black / Ted Tonks
Every love story has a beginning.
(Go read this one and tell celisnebula how much you like it so she'll write more! *G*)

Mmm...french toast sounds SO GOOD. *wipes up drool*

YAY SPN sleepover! Heee!

[why-me-why-not.livejournal.com]

french toast is awesome *g* We'll have to make some at our sleepover *g*

I'm sitting at home, not even getting dressed for work yet, so there's not really too many places I'd rather be, y'know?

Happy Thursday to you, Miss Wendy!

[wendy.livejournal.com]

And to you! Heee.

I wish I was at home too. *jealous*

[why-me-why-not.livejournal.com]

I'm at home on my lunchbreak now, but I've gotta go back to work. Stupid place. Who made up the whole rule about having to work for a living? What a horrid idea!

[wendy.livejournal.com]

For really real. I'm sick of it.

*pouts*

[why-me-why-not.livejournal.com]

after I hit the lottery and buy myself an island (full of hot men that have to do my bidding), you can come live there too and never have to work again, k?

alternately, there was some talk of opening a bar of some sort with De, but I'm a bit sketchy on the details now...

[wendy.livejournal.com]

Perrrrfect. That sounds PERFECT.

[asimplechord.livejournal.com]

You know you're going to make me read/watch Supernatural eventually, don't you?

*bookmarks Celisnebula's fic for after-work reading*

[why-me-why-not.livejournal.com]

(I forgot LJ keeps logging me out on this computer)

Yes, you totally should watch Supernatural. Or read it. I was reading it before I started watching the show. *g*

I'm an enabler. I can send you CDs with the episodes as .avi files if you want. :)

I'm kinda burnt out on HP, so it takes an interesting pairing or an interesting concept to get me to read lately. And I finished both my challenge fics, so I'm thinking about writing HP again. Seamus/Blaise, b/c someone got me thinking about them.

[asimplechord.livejournal.com]

Who would have done such an evil thing? ;)

I'm still stuck on the 4th deadly sin. Once it's done, I'll get to work on some of my other stuff (*cough* unfinished Snapshots *cough* incomplete Snarry *cough*) , but the Seamus/Blaise does have a little spot in the back of my mind that won't be quiet.

[why-me-why-not.livejournal.com]

I don't know who could've done it...

Which one's the fourth one? Like you and I were talking about in Y!M that one night, my problem is going to be the gluttony one. And although I may or may not have worked out some 500-word ficlet things for a few of the sins, I'm not committing myself to anything. *g*

Seamus & Blaise in my head are waiting patiently for their turn, which is why I want to write them. Reward for good behavior and all that. Draco and Sirius are back to fighting about who deserves more attention. :P

[asimplechord.livejournal.com]

Lust. But I think I've worked it out. I was trying to find a way to have it be lustful but not have anything more on Harry's part than the kiss that we see in HBP.

Sloth, pride, and greed are worked out in my mind, but not written. Envy and gluttony are written.

And I think, in the end, Wrath is going to be what happens when Ginny sees Harry with Fred & George, as an add-on to the slashfest Fred/George with voyeur!Harry (and its WIP Fred/Harry sequel) I wrote.

[why-me-why-not.livejournal.com]

I'm a loser and didn't read your slashfest! I'll have to do that this weekend! I think I may need to go read some other people's seven deadly sins fics so I can decide what to do with gluttony. :P

[asimplechord.livejournal.com]

It's your basic twincest, with a side of voyeur!Harry. I am incapable of managing plot, but porn is no problem. :)

I don't know if anyone else has posted their sins yet. I haven't checked that comm since I asked about the tag-team writing.

[why-me-why-not.livejournal.com]

lol -- I have a problem managing porn! I'm all about the plot! *g*

I know that wook77 used the Seven Deadly Sins idea for a different challenge fic, so I know there's some floating around. I should just bite the bullet and lay a claim, so that I'm forced to get something done, but I haven't worked up the courage yet. :P

[pixie-squeaks.livejournal.com]

AWWWWWWW!!! Lookit the babies! Tabby, you've got a beautiful family!

[why-me-why-not.livejournal.com]

Thank you! The two that I'm holding are mine (as if you couldn't tell). The other two belong to my brother RT -- the one in the black tshirt.

[admirabile.livejournal.com]

Congrats to your brother! That's wonderful about the scholarship!

[why-me-why-not.livejournal.com]

i was very excited; i'm so proud of him!
