Old Lurkers' Retreat

In five hours I'm out of town. It's just ten days, but ten days of just being absolutely, shamefully pampered by my family, so Yay!!

Take care, all of you! ♥

The lovely and thoughtful and truly wonderful  leochi  has drawn this marvelous piece. It's an absolutely perfect rendition to my beloved uncle, who died last Sunday. Thank you so much, my dear friend. I'm still wiping tears, and it's been three hours now. I'm out of tissue and I'm blaming your talent for it!

Goodbye, my sweet old fisherman. We are missing you a lot.

I’m sorry about not being around much lately. April 20th renovations at home started, so I get very busy. But a week later my uncle had an ischemic stroke and I have spent any minute I wasn’t working or dealing with the “renovation crew” (who had been and keep being the most awesome professionals I could have ever dreamed) in the hospital. I had only dedicated half an hour before bed to you, but giving that uncle is getting a slow but sure turn to the worse, these next days I may not be here at all. Or I may comment to your posts very late.

Be safe, guys. Love you all.

P.S. Uncle is 87, and he had had a good and independent life till the day he got sick, so we are sad and a bit shocked but that fact comforted us somehow.

Happy Birthday, love!

I wish you have a truly wonderful day. I'm sorry I couldn't finish your birthday gift before having to move out home. But you will have it , as faithwood  will have hers, once I have my flat back and my beloved Trinitron screen and my desktop unpacked from the attic. I hope renovations'd be finished in four weeks, more or less.

*squishes and smooches you silly*  ♥

More than three months late, but Happy Birthday to you! Again :) 

This time, your gift is done. Actually it was nearly finished, minus color adjust, three weeks ago, but RL stroke suddenly (flat renovation budgets, kitchen refurnishing budgets, double shifts, Internet repeated fails.... just name it, it was probable there, too).

So, click over the small teaser (beware about probably NWS):

Happy belated Birthday, hon! ♥

Thank you so, so much  softly_sweetly for the lovely v-gift! You are a doll!

♥ *squishes you*

I know lately I'm not reading or commenting much. I know I'm missing a lot of things, but real life has to come first these few weeks till the end of January. I have a very important competitive exam, and I'm enslaving myself revising these last three months. Between that, work and housekeeping (not to mention Christmas in the middle), I have very little time for anything else.

So, no, I'm not being rude, or unfriendly, I'm just annoyingly busy. And bordering a seazure, that too :) Only two small fifteen minutes rest periods per day to dedicate to fandom. But I have to try passing the exam. Is really very important for me.

I'll be back by the end of the month. And then I'll start stalking all of you again :)

Love you, guys!!

I'm taking a minute off my nearly full-panic attack revising for telling THANK YOU to whoever has put my name there. I'm speechless, and I feel honored like you can't believe! ♥


*goes back to duty, without her feet touching the ground*

Thank you so, so  much to faithwood  for the gorgeous e-card,  alaana_fair for the sweet and hilarious pics of the little devils children and softly_sweetly  for the wonderful v-gift (presents! yay!). *smooches all three of you silly*

Merry Christmas to all of you f-list!! Have a marvellous day!     ♥

The lovely and awesome  softly_sweetly  has written me a delicious Advent Drabble New Traditions. It's cute, and sexy, and Severus Snape truly knows how to bargain traditions! :)

Go read, and don't forget to leave her some love!

Happy Birthday, love! I hope you have a wonderful day, and an even better year.

I'm so sorry I couldn't make a gift for you this year.  But you'll have it anyway, as soon as this nightmare of an exam is over (even if it has to be an early Valentine).

I wish you all the best in the world, love!   ♥

Happy Birthday, hon! I hope you have a wonderful day, full of Equus-squee and surrounded by a lot of awesome people!

This is for you. Possibly NWS, just to be in the safe side. Click on the teaser ...

So, have a very happy day, and a fabulous year!    ♥

The Art Fest keeps going, reasserting me everyday of the total awesomeness of fandom in general, and of all you artists, in particular.  And tonight that sense of total awe reaches stratospheric proportions, because a fabulous mystery artist created this incredible marvel out of my simple prompt: Caught!

The amount of talent, time and effort this must has taken is mind-blowing, the details perfect, the boys delicious. Go see it, because, really, you don't want to miss it. Believe me. The boys are truly edible!!

The Art Fest at hd_fanart  has been a source of constant delight since it started. But yesterday it just blow my mind. Because a wonderful mistery artist take my simple prompt, and turn it into the most exquisite, breath-taking, emotion-filled piece of pure art : In Blue.

If you still haven't, go seeing it. Just be sure to be seated before you click the link. Falling out of the chair is a serious risk here!

The fest is nearly here. You can't miss it!

Tomorrow afternoon I'm going on holidays. Nearly two weeks at the beach!! *\o/*

No laptop, no internet. Just towel, sunblock, flip-flops,... well, and several (well, maybe more than "several") papers for revising that I'm smuggling inside the luggage. The one book was discovered and discarded this morning, but it was just a diversion :)

I'm not sure if tomorrow morning I'll have time to say bye, so I'm posting this now. I'm already feeling withdrawal. Be safe and have fun, all of you!
