Happy me!

I am absolutely giddy with delight...I've been nominated for two awards at the Multifaceted website. (As a side note, I want to mention that, given the high quality of the other fics nominated, there is no possible way I can win, but it's so wonderful that someone took the time to put my name in. *whee!*)

Now I feel really stupid about my recent whiny whine.

Whoever nominated me---THANK YOU! *hugs*

Well, good for you!

That's really nice.

I hope you win!

It would be a lovely thing if I won, but I won't put a single egg in that basket...I'm just happy that it was recognized!

Thank you so much for the kind thoughts!

I had no idea that Alton was narrating Iron Chef America. I think someone told me (most likely you!) and I forgot, and I was watching the other day, and I thought, this narration is really making the show a lot more enjoyable, perhaps even more enjoyable than Iron Chef! And then they cut to Alton, and I said, "Ah, now it makes sense." :)

Can you guess what my desktop looks like?

BTW, this nomination is for your OFC fic, right? Rock on, OCs!

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2005-07-05 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes! I have one nom for OC and one nom for Drama. w00t!!

Hahah...love the wallpaper! He is so tasty.

Aw, thanks! *hugs*

Knowing every word of this fic more intimately than anybody aside from you (which isn't saying much, really, I just read it and say 'wonderful as usual')...anyway, where was I? Oh, yeah, this is well-earned!

Congratulatioins, sweetie!

*runs around in glee*

Thank you so very, very much!!

I'm hoping to begin my Massive Editing Schedule this week, and begin to incorporate your corrections and suggestions and my own new thoughts about it.

In a perfect world, five chapters a night will be edited, and I will finish in just over two weeks.

In the real world I just hope to have the MES finished before I write the last chapter, which is still ahead on the horizon.

At least I finally started chap 69, and I have a cool (I hope) idea for it.

Oy! The great re-edit. I'm doing that for LLP right now. I couldn't sleep last night, and somehow found myself over at SH reading Unbroken again. I cringed at what I wrote just a year ago. That one will need an overhaul before I take it up again.

Yeah, I've been thinking that the writing has a few problems that occur...the watered down thing that you posted recently in [livejournal.com profile] quirkyhpshorts and other little problems, like Hermione's characterization and a bit of a problem with Poppy and Minerva's characterization that I'd like to fix.

Editing is so much fun...yet so much agony, too. ;)

Congratulations. And do not rule out winning!

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2005-07-05 07:08 pm (UTC)(link)

Aw, you're so sweet! Thank you so much!

We *have* to talk soon, too.

[identity profile] kitschicat.livejournal.com 2005-07-05 07:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes we do! What's your schedule like?

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2005-07-05 07:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I am sometimes free during the day, but I know you work! :(

So Tues or Weds evening, or Thurs evening, ring me up or I'll ring you, dahling!

;) Oh, and I have Friday off entirely, I'll be running around getting ready for a show.

[identity profile] kitschicat.livejournal.com 2005-07-05 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm actually off work this week but unsure on my availability due to the bathroom work being done. It's quite possible that my afternoon tomorrow could be free! I won't know til tomorrow though...

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2005-07-05 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm...I'll be at work tomorrow, oddly enough, and Thurs as well, and I have company tonight.

So Weds or Thurs evening, or Friday nearly anytime, though I may be screaming in frustration about getting ready for the show. ;)

Congratulations! It feels good, doesn't it? Even if you don't win... (I got nominated last time, but, well, But You Alone was nominated in the same category.)

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2005-07-06 10:42 am (UTC)(link)
Heh...yeah, I'm looking at the other fics and thinking, well, it was nice to be nominated!
