My home PC is still carrying on as usual - that is, CHKDISKing every time I turn it on. I haven't disabled it (although thankyou, for the instructions) cos I'd like to *know* when it's about to fall over completely.

No, instead my work computer has fallen over. It got as far as letting me enter my power on password, then informed me that it had a "Missing Operating System". Since the hard disk is encrypted, IT are having something of a challenge getting it fixed.

And so I have a stopgap machine with teeny tiny display settings that I can't change and which doesn't have the e-mail address book loaded.

Super, indeed.


Meanwhile, I've been and looked at the [livejournal.com profile] springkink prompts to date. There aren't nearly enough in recognisable fandoms ;) However, I *did* read through and think, "Oooh, I hope [livejournal.com profile] louiselux picks that", and "that's been put there in the hope that [livejournal.com profile] daegaer gives it a good home". It's interesting seeing which from the first round have inspired similar / possible follow ups this time, too :)

... and which doesn't have the e-mail address book loaded...

Gmail = the bestest. Can access it from anywhere with an intarwebz connection. It's what hotmail should have been. Also, threaded email conversations FTW.

I meant the internal Lotus Notes (yes, really) address book. I could type in the Official External E-mail Address of the bloke sitting next to me, and the mail would get to him the long way round, but couldn't use the internal networks.

I can't get to Gmail from work (or Hotmail, Yahoo etc) - it's blocked.

There's at least one prompt that is Daegaer-bait, all right! Not enough of them, though.

Well, exactly ;) Judging by last time, it might be easier if I just gave you my prompts directly!

I'm tempted by a couple myself, although couldn't do justice to the one that *really* made me have a moment.

You know the sort of thing that tempts me, so if you want to submit some more . . .

I shall! I haven't even started on my list of crossovers yet ;)

I'm looking at my prompt file now and thinking... 'If I submit any of these everyone'll KNOW who needs shooting on sight'.

So do I submit and open up a round of Munchie-fannish-kink bingo? *cringes*

YES. Yes, you do.

You also poke the net until several more SGA fans join in :p

Dude, seriously, you don't even want to KNOW what's going on in my pea-sized brain.

Most of the SGA fans I know are in hiding. ^_^

I'm not! I already submitted some. And someone else has been adding SG-1 too.

Helloooooo

Hi Jenny,
Shira advised you were happy for me to know your LJ name so I thought I'd drop a note to say Hi :)

By the way do people who did Semiconductor Physics count as being sexy ?????

Best Regards

Andre'

I NEED TO COME TO YOUR HOUSE AND TAME THE BEAST.
