Argh.

I had a lovely evening last night with laura27md , including great food and discussion and of course the latest CSI ep.  I got home late, but planned to post Ch. 12 of DtS as soon as my computer booted up. 

Yeah, well. 

First there was the notice on my apartment door, stating that my building was going to be de-bugged APRIL 4TH*, and would I please empty the closets, vacuum everything, strip the bed, etc., etc.   *sigh*  It was 11:30 PM.  Not going to happen. 

Then I found out my Internet connection was down.  I fiddled with it for a while, but sometime in the wee hours I gave up and went to bed without posting.  It did occur to me that I could in theory do a voice post to LJ explaining the delay in the chapter, but I've never done one of those so I didn't have the number.  And without the Internet, I couldn't look it up...  *eyeroll* 

I was late to work, and walked in to be greeted by several minor crises snarling around my ankles.  Fortunately they weren't hard to deal with.  The upshot of all this whining, however, is that Ch. 12 of DtS is now up.  Finally! 


*In other words, today.  This is not the first time this has happened, and the apartment management and the pest company each blame the other for this lack of scheduling.  So after I managed to get a hold of the pest company this morning (making me late for work) I put a sign on my door telling them not to come in.  It's not like the pesticide actually achieves anything anyway.

First of all, DtS: *Releases breath, stale from weeks and weeks of uncertainty, and inhales somewhat more promising air!*
Yay, a theory! Loving it - sorry I missed letting you know that last week...I was house-sitting and a bit out of it. But loved it then too - and the Lutefisk (which I've never had btw - and never will!). :P

....so, what about the indoor kitties on days they come and spray??

O_o

Glad you enjoyed the chapters! Onward into the proving stage...

That was part of my dilemma. The note didn't say one way or the other!

The chapter was worth the wait, very. I love the idea that it's Hannah, twisted little brat that she is.

At least you had a great evening before coming home to all that. I can't imagine coming home to a house full of pesticides. I don't even use flea stuff, thank god I have laminate in the house, no worries with chemicals.

Thanks! It was fun setting it up, now I just have to make it carry through.

Actually, I have an apartment with bugs, but there's no getting rid of them short of moving. I get philosophical about it.

Hehe looks like I've stalked you all the way to your livejournal.

--> and to friending you so I can stalk you in the future ;)

Im the person that asked you what were your longest fanfics -- and since I've demolished all the GSR ones you pointed out (and a few of the cliche ones just for kicks) --

I'm maddly in love with Brass/LH now :p

Oh and Dts ... WIP! nooooo ... Better not be a 2 week wait on the next one ... Its Thursday tomorrow isn't it :p :p (well it is in Australia)

*sighs* Sometimes it sucks to be ahead of the world.

Heh, welcome! Glad to convert another to the sweet madness that is Jim & Lady Heather. Though of course we wrote those long before she went off the deep end...

Next DtS chapter later today!
