(no subject)
Jan. 4th, 2005 11:05 amYea, me thinks I'm skipping work today. Still trek across town to pick up decongestant, but since my throat only goes to a dull burn w/ salt water, i don't think inhaling mouse dander would be of the good. Nope not at all. Plus maybe I'll be able to clean and unpack if my muse leaves me alone for 5 gorram minutes!!! Really need a pause button for that baby. Really.
Oh...and bought the book for Bourne Supremacy yesterday. And since I didn't read Conspiracy (just saw the movie), I must conclude that the script bastardized the books to no end (still haven't seen supremacy). I mean.....well ( spoilers )

So this was my answer to the fanfic challenge I made for
the_official. Thought I'd crosspost for those possible IM fans that might not have heard of the community yet:) So pimpage and a story, not bad eh? And of course,
neroli66 deserves credit as my intrepid beta.

"What the hell is that?" Darien asked.
Hobbes looked down guiltily at the gift sack in his hand. "It's a gift. Haven't you heard of them before? You know, those things you used to steal from other people."
Darien rolled his eyes. "A Christmas gift. Aww, Hobbesy, you shouldn't have."
"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hands off Fawkes. It's not for you."
Fawkes easily reached around and grabbed the bag. Holding it out of Hobbes' much shorter reach, he read the tag, "To Claire, from your friend Bobby Hobbes!"
"Fawkes! Give it back."
Fawkes started laughing while he kept the bag out of reach. "Hobbesy has a crush, Hobbesy has a crush."
Hobbes jumped up to try to reach the gift while pushing down on Fawkes' shoulder to get extra height. This was exactly the position that the Official found them in when he entered the Agency hallway.
"Gentlemen?" he asked with raised eyebrows.
Both men turned a rather sheepish red. "Umm…I was just trying to keep Hobbes from peeking at his Christmas gift," Darien offered lamely.
"Mm-hmm. Do the holidays off the work premises. I won't have any discrimination lawsuits using up resources," the Official ordered as he entered his office.

Too good to be true
Jan. 4th, 2005 10:17 pmWell, University of Oklahoma is getting their asses kicked in the second quarter. Sigh, maybe they'll have a good second one? Though I doubt it. They seem to have a stupendous ability to screw up when they aren't 25 pt underdogs like they were the last time they played the Orange Bowl in florida for the national championship.
And I'm sick. Nose started the burning thing and chest has joined in. No fever or muscle aches so maybe I'll get off easy? Did get a bit better after I got my full dose of normal decongestant. Ear itching stopped a bit at least. Sigh. Will have to go to work tomorrow unless I'm truly horrible though. Lab meeting. :( Crud, should probably check my school email too to see if anyone has decided who is supposed to give the dreaded journal club that should be happening this week. Eternal postdoc was supposed to make a schedule before christmas. Been putting it off. But can feel the dread of work setting in...muse dried up this afternoon for one. Ahh well.
