First off, the gorgeouscalanthe_fics is co-ordinating another fandom recipe book effort. The last one was extrodinary, and had recipes, drinks, as well as ficlets, from people all over fandom. Well, she's doing Vol 2, and if you're interested, you should go to this post here and join in the fun. Fandom Recipe Book Vol 2.

Secondly, I find very little time to read fic whilst sat at the computer. Usually it gets downloaded to my ipod, where I read, <strike>wank</strike> enjoy, and do my best to remember to leave comments. But I grabbed me a piece ofsoftly_sweetly today, who blew me away in 270 words with some bloody fantastic cross gen, involving Scorpius, Harry and Snape. Guh. Still wiping computer chair dry. Do yourself a favour and take 3 minutes to read Anticipation 

 Found out today that Paddy gets his four year army bonus next month. Which means our financial woes will be considerably lightened. I can't tell you how much of a relief that is. I was all ready to pack in the baby-making and get a job instead. A proper one, not this part time photography lark.

Paddy's mum's coming to stay with us for the weekend. She's nice enough but God, does she talk. Like, non stop. And always about 'old times' which makes it really fucking difficult to join in the conversation when you WERENT THERE. I sort of suggested he take her and the kids out for the day on Saturday and he had his hurt, puppy dog face on. Like I should WANT to spend the day with them all, lmfao. At least his sister isn't coming. In fact we 've not heard from her since the wedding. Perhaps something to do with the fact that we thanked my mother profusely for making our wedding cake?!! Luckily there's no room for her and all those kids to stay here anyway. I seriously couldn't hack her coming to stay for more than a few hours. Ick.

Umm, I still haven't got around to doing the postcards, mainly because there's nowhere in fricking Blandford that sells them. So when we go to the beach this weekend, I'll get some then. I promise!!! Oooh, and a huge thank you toenchanted_jae who send me an awesome postcard!!! Rennick Road! lmfao.. thanks darling.. swear you'll get on in return v v soon!! *Hugs*

Just finished cutting up the cake. Admittedly this did not take me since I posted yesterday to do. I couldn't be arsed yesterday.
I am sitting here with a gum shield in, in a vain attempt to whiten my teeth before tomorrow. the children are very curious and keep asking what I'm doing. It's not very easy to explain when you're dribbling and have 2 plastic moulds shoved in your cakehole.
Did not sleep very well again last night. Feeling alternively sick and depressed in equal measures. so convinced something's going to go wrong. Don't like being centre of attention very much either (yes,sassy_cissa and alisanne I'm sure you find that hard to believe!!) but I really don't, so I'm not looking forward to all eyes being on me. Especially as my skin has broken out since yesterday and the foundation I brought now seems not to match my skin colour.

Please don't feel the need to respond to my whinging and moaning! Just feeling very very nervous now! 26 hours til the ceremony....

The lovelybethbethbeth has informed me that the username 'the_flic' is available!! It's totally me, and you all know me as Flic anyway, right? Plus I'd happily pay the $15 to just change the name and not have to get a new journal, so that's what I'm going to do.

My doctor says I have cystitis. Round of applause to all who got it right from the bit of info I gave you! I'm currently in bed because it hurts less lying down. He says with antibiotics it'll clear up in a week, which is good because my hen night is next friday and I REALLY want to be able to get drunk lol. Won't be drinking on the fandom night out tomorrow in London, though *sad face* but I WILL be there, even if I have to get a crotch sling to stop the feeling that I'm losing my insides. TMI? Yes, I thought so *g* By the way,anthimaeria, I'm still not certain your diagnosis wasn't correct and the tests he ran today will confirm that next week. It feels a bit too brutal to be an infection but we'll see.

Lastly, the easter hat parade was a bloody nightmare. ONE child out of 30 decided that she was too good to be singing/dancing/showing off her hat and sulked the entire time and refused to wear it. Of course, that child would have to be mine. I've told her I'm not going to any more school productions if she doesn't buck up, it's a waste of bloody time to go and watch her stare at the wall and have her back to us all. NOT happy that I spent 6 hours making a hat that she wouldn't wear.

Going back to bed. Paddy is being very lovely and taking care of the kids so I can rest. He really is a wonderful man and just reaffirms the reasons I'm marrying him (in two weeks and six days' time... *g*.. is this getting old yet?)
