My dwircle is awesome!

[kate]

So, there are a couple of interesting things going on right now. Amongst the dwircle:

+ nanila did a points giveaway thingee, and a few folks on my flist got some! Yay for nanila and yay for the recipients and yay for the people who nommed them!

+ clavally whipped off an amazing Peter & Neal White Collar fic! It is really lovely and heart-clenching and makes me want to squeeze them all so hard. :D :D :D

True North (3895 words) by Clavally
Fandom: White Collar
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Peter Burke & Neal Caffrey
Additional Tags: Angst, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Alternate Universe - Canon, Mind Meld
Summary: The FBI have created a program to keep better tabs on their criminal informants. Both handlers and C.I.s can be implanted with a microchip that will download all the memories and feelings of the C.I. into their handler's minds. So far, the program has received rave reviews from the agents who have tried it. Peter must decide if it's the right decision for them, but what will he find in Neal's head if they go through with it?

This story starts right around the beginning of Season 2 and ends towards the end of Season 3.

+ florahart wrote anthropomorfic based on the Porn Without Plot/Plot What Plot tag at the AO3. AMAZING!

And then there are my RL things. Right now my life consists of the following:

+ Football! I'm not a huge soccer fan but we've been watching everything, and it's a little surprising how much you can pick up by osmosis.

+ Psych rewatch in the evenings. We're halfway through S5 and the Gus&Shawn dynamic makes me squee every time. I just love them. I also love how great Jules and Lassie are as partners.

+ Work. I think I'm technically done with the project this week, but I'll probably still work on it next week to make sure I have the deliverables I promised. I also have another project I need to get to tonight, and I have a gig in July! :D :D :D I don't know if it involves travel or not yet, but I am hoping so. If it does, I'll be in New Jersey.

+ Teeth. My wife and I are finally taking care of our teeth (apparently our dental insurance is amazing!). Tomorrow I get three teeth pulled so I can get braces to straighten them out. Yup, I'm getting braces at age 44. It'll take two years. Whee.

+ Right now we're watching the S3 opener of Perception. I really enjoy this show so far except for Daniel's fucking conducting. He does not conduct properly (he conducts the classical music he listens to) and it drives me fucking nuts. ETA: And he just smashed a cello - a professional player's cello! - and I.... teared up. I just. I knew it was coming and I was hiding my face behind my hands because I knew it, and I just kept going "no no no no no no no no no" and then he did and I cried a little. I am SO SAD. That was TOTALLY UNNECESSARY and oh, MY HEART. So that makes me a little sad and angry. But I'll be over it by next week.

That's kinda it, I think. What's up with you?

Oh! Wtg you for getting braces! I've been considering it (at almost 34I) because my teeth are super cramped :/ :/ and they were just not in the budget growing up (& honestly, it would have been a disaster anyway). I think maybe being an adult is better for it anyway. My mom had a friend who did braces in her 40's. She just finally had the cash and wanted it - so why not? I have a bunch of other stuff that needs doing before I make that leap, though. :/ Augh, teeth.

Ps thank you for the whirlwind of love at the ao3 today! <3<3<3

Thank you! I'm pretty excited about it, tbh. When my wisdom teeth came in, they made my top teeth crooked and I've wanted to have that fixed for years. Now it's time! It took a solid six months worth of work at the dentist/oral surgeon before we got there, though (my wife's getting braces too).

You're welcome! I went to view Sam and just started clicking through - you'll get a pile of kudos tomorrow, too. <333
