Kind of a wasted weekend

It rained out the fireworks every night not that evil_little_dog amd I probably would have went because it meant getting there early and when it's 90+ and 100% humidity who wants to be hanging around outside. Got a little bit written but not nearly enough for the Ripper ficathon. Did get a little on my novel done. It being 80's retro weekend helped since that's when it's set.

Tried to go to see Spiderman2 today. I wasn't too keen on it (especially after all the work I did on the manatee data crapped out and I have to convert 20+ files so the professor can open them) because I figured too many people would STILL be off work and as much as I want to see this movie, I don't want to see it in a packed house but  evil_little_dog thinks it's possible to see it so we try anyhow. My car didn't want to start but since it was on a weird angle and low on gas I didn't think too much of it other than it's never done that before.

We get there. it's sold out for the next two hours and the next showing has like 11 open seats and they're already lined up. No way in hell are we  standing in line for 2 hours for this. We go back to the car. It still sputters to a start and we're on a flat surface. Hmmm, evil suggests my battery might be going bad. I'm thinking yeah it's 5 years old with 90,000+ miles on it so we head to Sears for a new battery. They have express service. Somehow they think 2 hours is express. What a waste of my day. Should have just paid for the battery (but it took 1 1/2 of those hours to confirm it WAS the battery) and walked across the street to the crappy theatre and saw Shrek 2 or something.

Eeep

evil_little_dog  asked me to trim one of the evil little dogs. I'm figuring I used to be a surgeon surely I can trim a schnauser. Fifteen minutes later Chief looks like he fell under the lawn mower. Not to mention he's filthy. I swear in the last 24 hours since he was washed Pewter and Rogue buried him up to his nose in the sand then dug him back out. I think I see the hole where they did it.

So Chief is half shaved, half bald, looking raggety and dirty and mad as he tries to escape the tether. And I'm totally convinced that NO ONE should ever work outside in Florida. It was still morning and I'm sweating buckets. I run inside and shower. I don't take two steps outside before I'm assailed with dog tongue because no shower I take is complete without a tongue bath to finish it off. Why can't I find a man like this?

I SHOULD be working on my Ripper Fic

But at least I FINALLY know where it's going.

Here's a little pimping. ANother B/A only award site that is in round two. This Love awards don't  know much about them but they've got some nice categories for you B/A fans.

And for a newish board, Futureverse Fic (not sure if this will take you there since you have to log in etc but check with marenfic  since she's running it). Anyhow, it's for speculative future fic for both Buffy and Angel (or crossovers of the two). Categories for both conventional and non conventional and wips etc. Neat stuff especially for those of you with the future fic jones.
