My favorite fic person as of late, I have a question for you. I am pondering on either hosting or having something to do with two seasonal fic challenges. One is for Pepper Potts and the other is for the Petrellis. What would I need to do to persuade you to submit a piece (as short or as long as you wanted) to both?

Thank you, darling! I'm going to download when I get home. *blows kisses*

Wow cool, I only have one of those songs on my computer (the Propellerheads song). And I love "Today is the Day" by Apollo Sunshine -- they used it in a Hollyoaks episode I saw recently and I was wishing I had it!

Whenever I'm depressed, I think of Sam and Gene dancing to "Jean Genie," and then I'm happy to be alive, too! *vbeg*

Taking, this'll be great for my upcoming road trip. Thanks!

I'm so taking this! Have a trip to London tomorrow and unfortunately suffer from a near pathological fear of the tube. Perhaps this will get me through it. Thank you! <3

Thanks for this, how nice!!

Thanks, that looks like an awesome list. Robyn is what Madonna wishes she could be, so why do I keep hearing 4 Minutes everywhere and not Konichiwa Bitches? Even the NAME is awesomer!

Downloading this when I get home -- that Propellerheads track is one of my favorites. I love how the beginning switches from ear to ear when you listen to it using headphones.

Ta v much - sounds like a good mix.

The Lupe 'Superstar' featuring Matthew is my cell phone ring. I love Matthew. There's something so hypnotic about his voice...and he's a sexy m.f. too. LOL
