For those interested, you can find some extremely pretty Starbuck, Boomer, and even Cally icons here. Also, some SG Atlantis ones if you're so inclined.

Ever read someone's journal and just assume they were your age only to find out they were like 10+ years younger than you? I am feeling truly ancient. Stuffy-headed and ancient. Ugh.

I also thought this was absolutely adorable and 100% correct:
Snape Dogma 05
My personal favorites:

When writing Snape!fic, I will not:
...make him smell like some inordinately sweet and intoxicating scent just so the Love Interest can catch a whiff and swoon.
...suddenly give him a son/daughter that enrolls in Hogwarts. (Surprise, dad!)
...make him a virgin with Astonishing Sexual Powers.
...have a perky OFC 'win him over' with her excessive good cheer or her feisty spunky attitude.
...give him Snape Manor, complete with more trappings and more wealth than even Lucius Malfoy can imagine.
...make him an expert in martial arts or weapons.
...be tempted to turn his private chambers into a Slytherin Love Boudoir complete with giant round rotating bed and disco ball.

The rest of the do's and don'ts are well worth a read.

And oh my [livejournal.com profile] pandarus has done it again, a gorgeous story that crosses the Potterverse with the Sandman universe. Snape summons Death and they have a long chat. Please go read Incarnate, you'll be glad you did.

Now I'm going to hug my box of tissues and wallow in my own germs for a bit...

It's a bit pathetic that I'm jealous that you're home sick, isn't it? *sigh*

Who said anything about being home?

Um, me. I did. I assumed you were off to the couch for hugging of said tissue box. :(

If it makes you feel any better, I recently realized that someone I added to my friendslist recently and who I had a lot in common with... was less than half my age.

Uh, recently. Recently. I just like to say recently today.

*shakes head*
