Hello from Santa Cruz
Aug. 8th, 2004 09:08 pmSo, my dad and I spent roughly forty-five minutes on the phone with SBC Tech Support, figuring out what the hell my computer has against accessing dial-up in Santa Cruz, and now I am online. <33 Last night and earlier today when I tried to go on and couldn't, I was about resigned to not having the internet for...nine days, but yay for Tech Support!
Anyway, I'm in Santa Cruz now, and it's been...foggy. And actually a bit colder than Reno, though that doesn't matter because it's Santa Cruz and I have the beach right below my balcony and can fall asleep at night listening to the waves crash, and so I am happy.
And I have a fic rec (almost when insane yesterday, when I thought I couldn't read fics for a week *g*). Sticky by Kitty Levina, and the kind of thing that reminds me why I still do go to ff.net sometimes (well, to the Harry Potter section. I go to the video game/anime sections as well, because those have surprisingly less crap--or at least the video game section does). In Grimmauld Place, Sirius uses sticky notes to remind himself of memories.
I have also resolved to write the next chapter of Only Time sometime this week. Maybe even finish it, because there's not that many chapters left, and I know precisely what's happening in each one after nineteen (it's just nineteen that's refusing to be anything but a crappy boring chapter :p). But it would be nice symmetry, if I could finish it here. I started it here, after all. I love Santa Cruz.
Though, sigh, another thing I have to finish soon is my summer reading. I've been putting it off and putting it off--everyone tells me that Crime and Punishment and Catch-22 are hard going, and I prefer reading light fantasy--but I should probably stop procrastinating. Bother.
Will also probably end up going to that craft store I found a year or two ago, to get material to make a Footpad with. And then I'm sure I'll come down with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
