So, I just got an inbox message indicating that I've been nominated as part of the contest going on over on sortofbeautiful, a community at which I've spent almost no time lately.

They have three catagories of stories, and they're voting on 'best of' in each: one-shots, lemons and characterization (of Jake, of course). So, I've been nominated for.....( go on guess )

Is it awful that I've written a ridiculous amount of Twilight fanfic, but I'm not that interested in seeing the movie? Not even interested enough to check movie times to SEE if I can go? *sigh* I'm over it, I guess, though I really enjoyed writing the stuff at the time.

That said, I promised a few folks that I'd post what I have written on that Mike/Bella, and then I never got around to actually doing it. Someone remind me in about eight hours and I'll get the first full chapter up, at least. :P What can I say? I'm just a putz. If I can't even get together enough interest to view the movie, how will I ever finish writing that story? *shakes head*

Anyway, I'm headed out to lunch. I'll catch folks up on life later this evening, perhaps.

I know I posted the drabble / first chapter of the Mike/Bella fic I started. I cannot find it for the life of me....I even remember the comments I got on it. Lol! But I can't find it anywhere, so here it is again.

PLEASE keep in mind that:
A) This story is not complete. It's got 11 definite chapters and 3 unfinished, but I'm posting it because forever_dawn wants me to post something new....
B) I've had way too much wine.......so forgive me if my code's bad or there are typos all through my text.......

Chapter 1

( BD Spoilers )

End of my thoughts on BD: Book the 1st. More tomorrow on BD: Book the 2nd. The comments are open season. Don't read them if you haven't read the book.

So, on Sunday I opened up a story I haven't worked on in months. And it was actually pretty decent. I tried to write a bit on it and failed again. I think I will need to re-read the books before I attempt to pick up where I left off. I'm only two or three chapters from finished on this story, though, so I particularly want to complete it.

During a T or D game on FB, I was asked to write up my favorite erotic fantasy.....I'm sure I've already written it, but apparently those don't count, I've got to come up with something new. That will appear here when it's finally complete. (Names will be changed to protect the not-so-innocent.)

There is a vendor bringing us lunch today at the office. PLEASE let it be salad, so I can have some. I'm tired of everyone making fun of my diet. :(

And speaking of the diet, I'm living through it pretty well, but the workout is kicking my ass. I pulled something Tuesday, and it seems to be getting worse instead of better. :( My shoulder is swollen and the pain travels to the bottom of my shoulder blade and up into my neck. I'm keeping it iced, but that just makes the rest of me cold. :P I need my chai! But, technically I shouldn't be having that either. Lol! Maybe tomorrow as a Friday treat. What a shame it isn't already Friday....Looking forward to the long weekend. Back to the beach! :D
