Basic maintenance and other blather.

1. After ten months (yes, I know, hush) I have finally updated my website, dysfunctional.* There are new sections for all my Heroes writing as well as Friday Night Lights and various other things that I've written and forgotten about, so you know, head on over there and poke around.

*Read: I coded but obsessedmuch did all the heavy lifting and gave the site a face-lift (g'bye, Ryan!) and just made it all pretty and coordinated, you know, thank her. *smushes*

2. You don't think Apple would do something like delay telling people that iTunes 7.3 for the iPhone will probably jack your iPod AND your computer up and OMG, uninstall it NOW!, because they don't want any bad publicity around the iPhone frenzy, do you? No, of course not.

3. I need something happy. Happy happy happy... James McAvoy in Shameless. I want to have his babies. Lots of little Scottish babies, even though he's already married to his co-star. *sigh* So sad. I feel like bastardising Robbie, "All the best men are married all the handsome women are gay."

4. ethrosdemon and I have been discussing Harry Potter recently. Namely whether or not we're going to give a shit about Book 7 and the film and all that other business. The film I can do whatever, but the book I am so going to read. That's definitely worth a last stint in HP fandom for that. Oh, yes precious. *pets Neville*

With regards to who's getting offed, my sentiments can be summed up thusly:

I have a serious love/hate relationship with Draco, but... If she kills him I'm going to feel seriously aggrieved - not just as a Slytherin, but as someone who knows what it's like to have good intentions, to just want to protect the people you love from everything. Fucking sanctimonious Gryffindors. (Except Neville, but that's a sermon for another day. I am not even entertaining the idea of anything happening to Neville).

I'm looking forward to reading the final Harry Potter book, but I think I'm almost looking forward *more* to the inevitable wank that's going to result. I don't usually enjoy fandom_wank, but Harry Potter wank is...something special.

Right now I have to write Ashley's DCU fic, which will probably be Dick/Roy, and then we can go on a rampage. I'll think on it tonight when the fools are over at the dinner party we're having since I know they'll be trying to talk me about work.

A deafening WORD from the girl who still cries every time Dumbledore gives Neville those ten points at the end of Sorceror's Stone. If JK kills off Neville in #7, I'll have to carry out some kind of online fatwa, and I just don't have the *time* right now, Jo.

Did you see James McAvoy in State of Play? (http://www.bbc.co.uk/drama/stateofplay/) David Morrissey, James McAvoy, Bill Nigh, Polly Walker,John Simm *and* a twisty political thriller plot with bonus journalists.

So good.

Weird/broken links on your website

Just letting you know that a bunch of your Heroes stories seem to have "Speed dial" on top of them. The fic is there, but you have to scroll past speed dial 2 to get to it.

X Will Mark the Place Like a Parting of the Waves
wherever you go, the earth just opens up
What's Love Got to Do With It?
The Man Who Told Everything
All the Straight Boys Are Doing It (extra weird, because you're scrolling through a Heroes fic to get to Kitchen Confidential and it sets up all kinds of pleasant, if somewhat cracked, associations).
Clothing Does Make the Man = this give a 404 error.
