I have returned!

[thegrrrl2002]

And there was much rejoicing. I had the lovely experience of spending Sunday night in Newark Airport, due to the cancellation of my flight. It's definitely not a good way to end a lovely, fattening, and relaxing vacation. Although, when you are really tired? A luggage cart is a pretty good place to catch a few zzz's. Still tired, though, even after sleeping through most of yesterday.

But--100 icons! *g* Now that cheered me up a great deal. As did "Condemned". I've watched it twice so far, and I have much love for it. Oh, the subtext! The hotness! And, a bit of my favorite: dorky Sheppard! It made me very happy.

I missed you all. I dont' think I'll have a chance to catch up on my flist, but I hope everyone had a good week. I see that I have some new friends. Howdy! ::waves:: Don't be shy!

What's the ficcy situation? I suspect I have lots of fic to catch up on. Have I missed anything else exciting? Like, say, David Hewlett's contract being amended to require him to be naked in every episode?

Damn this work thing. ::glares at email:: They expect me to like, *do* stuff. When I'd much rather be reading, making icons, or writing fic. Can't that be my job? I'd work very hard at it, honest, I would.

Okay, work now.

there's a rumor that Connor Trineer is going to be on Atlantis later this season. Unconfirmed but woo!

Also one of your new friends is just me again. I'm trying to be as confusing as possible.

there's a rumor that Connor Trineer is going to be on Atlantis

Really? Woo! I hope it's true. That would be so fabulous.

And I just noticed that you had a new journal. *g* You are very confusing. Do you ever confuse yourself?

[miera-c.livejournal.com]

wouldn't it? we're rooting for him to be in leather.

You are very confusing. Do you ever confuse yourself?

all the time. isn't it obvious? (I did delete the other one.)

Oh and I've written perverse body switching stories about Elizabeth and John. Cause carolyn_claire is a pervy influence.

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Body swapping? Cool! I'm looking forward to reading it. I like body swapping. Er, in fics, that is.

[wickdzoot.livejournal.com]

Welcome back. You were greatly missed.

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Sweetie! How are things? Is your baby there with you yet?

[wickdzoot.livejournal.com]

Things are okay, and not yet, dammit.

Tonight, allegedly.

[skater-g8r.livejournal.com]

::welcome back hugs::!

100 icons cheered me well up too! *-) glad your break was relaxing! at least the airport didnt go on strike! apparently Heathrow did O.O

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Ooooh, what a dirty icon! *g* I love it.

::hugs you::

I'm very glad to be back. And an airport going on strike sounds like an awful thing! Oh my!

[inthekeyofd.livejournal.com]

Work is the same way here--it's as if they expect me to actually do work-don't they know that I have much more important things to do. *smile*

And if that little amendment just happened to be added to David's contract--the sound of the squees would be deafening. *smile*

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Fandom stuff is definitely much more important. I'm a big believer in having fun whenever possible. ::nods::

I think SGA needs to have an all-naked ep. Maybe we should start lobbying for that? Think of all the money they'd save on costumes!

[rivier.livejournal.com]

Just, you know, snog, snog, snogetty-snog!

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Big wet smoochies right back at ya!

[thepouncer.livejournal.com]

Welcome back! Newark airport is the tenth circle of hell, so I am not surprised that you were marooned there. But at least you're home now. *hugs*

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I'm very happy to be back home. *g* And if I have to fly anywhere again for the next ten years it will be too soon.

[reedfem.livejournal.com]

::rejoices::

We so need to lobby for contract amendments.

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Yup. Maybe a requirement for how much skin they have to show in each ep? Or that for every inch that Teyla shows, the guys have to show two inches of it? And arms don't count?

Can I be a contract lawyer?

[seikaitsukimizu.livejournal.com]

Welcome back! And yeah, isn't that thing where they actually expect you to do stuff a work sucky? I'm always in the middle of a great fic when bam! In walks a customer. *sighs* No rest for the wicked...um...weary. Yeah...^-^;;;

Oh, and *waves* Hi. Probably don't remember me, but big fan of your work.

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Hey, you were on alpha_gate, right? As Cypher?

And we should all get writing breaks during work. I think that would definitely increase moral. ::nods::

[seikaitsukimizu.livejournal.com]

Were? What 'were'? I'm still there! I'm just lurking in the shadows...poised...waiting for the moment when I can strike and initiate a hostile takeover so I can rule the alpha gate! Muwahahahahahahaha!

*coughs* ....that, and I'm lazy and been sucked into the Static Shock fandom. ^-^;;;;;;;

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

A hostile take-over of alpha_gate might be a good thing. *g* Although, I haven't checked it out in ages. I've been too distracted by the SGA love, too. So much pretty!

[destina.livejournal.com]

Ack, Newark! That might make me resort to curling up on a luggage cart, too. *g* I'm glad you had a good vacation, tho. Welcome back. :)

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

So not my favorite airport. Even though I grew up not too far from it, just outside of Newark. I was tempted to spend the night riding around in circles on the monorail, but I figured there were too many chances to bump into unsavory characters.

Vacation was wonderful, though. I had fun with my sisters, and got a chance to see some cousins and their grown-up children, when did that happen? The weather was pretty good, the water, warm, and I ate much pie, for some reason. Apple caramel, and raspberry peach. Very delicious! And lots of seafood.

Oooh, now I'm hungry.

[drlense.livejournal.com]

What is it with you and airports?

I accidentally deleted "Condemned" from the Tivo after I'd watched it three times. SO unfair.

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

What is it with you and airports?

LOL, I was thinking the same thing. Apparently, they love me so that they never want to let me go.

Same thing happened last year when I visited the shore. I'm just going to start scheduling my return flights for the following morning.

And you definitely need to download "Condemned". It's too pretty to only watch three times. *g*

[kageygirl.livejournal.com]

Yay, you're back! *squooshy hugs*

Oh, the Newark Airport freaks me out. It's all--radial and wrong, somehow.

This work thing really does interfere with the more important things in life. Dangit.

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

::squeezes back::

What is it with Newark airport? Being all round and everything? Twelve gates in one big circle, and all doing their announcements at the same time. My brain was fried.

[bluestarmuse.livejournal.com]

And there was much rejoicing.

But of course, m'dear! Welcome back, I'm glad you had a good vacation, airport hell notwithstanding. +nods+

Like, say, David Hewlett's contract being amended to require him to be naked in every episode?

I'm liking the Teyla=1 inch, Guys=2 inch idea...is there anyway we can get that lobbied? +grins+

^_^

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Thank you, sweetie! I'm happy to be back.

And I think the skin to skin ratio thing is only fair. Really.

[laitaine]

*waves* I am a new friend.

Like, say, David Hewlett's contract being amended to require him to be naked in every episode?

Oooo, welcome to my happy place. We should petition for this. Really.

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Mmmm. Rodney/gun. *g*

Wait--Rodney naked with gun!!!

Huh. That will be a subclause.

[laitaine]

Oooo, yes. Guns. Very important.

And I call for more wet Rodney scenes. Because water droplets + skin = guh.

[shetiger.livejournal.com]

*snuggles grrrl*

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

::leans in close::

[karendreamer.livejournal.com]

Missed you....so glad you're back and happy....yes, 100 icons make for lots of Rodney/Hewlett happy. This is another version of your icon, created by the amazing mmmchelle.

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Mmmm. Nipple. I love chelle's icons. *g* She's fabulously talented. (I'm hoping she notices those JF caps I posted).

[carolyn-claire.livejournal.com]

Hail, the returning, um, pervy grrl! *excited lube-and-bash* Airports are a circle of hell; glad you've returned to us unsinged. What I want to know is, what's up next on YOUR fic-plate, hmmmm? :)

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Eeeee, fic! I have a thousand things I want to write. But my brain is all squishy and smelly from being on the beach. Hopefully it will recover soon!

[jenlev.livejournal.com]

welcome home! and oh, ack....newark. *meep* sorry to hear about that. happy reading and hopefully work won't be too chaotic. *hugs*

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Thank you, sweetie! Work is pretty mellow, fortunately. *g* And the fic is making me very happy. Yay!

[jenlev.livejournal.com]

fic has a way of doing that. :)

[raqs.livejournal.com]

yay! you're back!

1) there hasn't been enough porn.
2) all the icons of everyone responding to this of rodney are downright inspiring.
3) there hasn't been enough porn.

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Thank you, I'm very glad to be back! And "Duet" was an inspiring episode. Naked under the sheets! Woo! Oh, to be on that set.

And there's never enough porn.

Welcome back!

[lornelover.livejournal.com]

When I'd much rather be reading, making icons, or writing fic. Can't that be my job? I'd work very hard at it, honest, I would.

*laffs* Clearly, you have missed the recent Wank to End All Wanks (http://www.journalfen.net/community/fandom_wank/776590.html). Though I actually *would* pay you to just write fic all day.

Glad to have you back. *seconds raqs*

Re: Welcome back!

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's a fabulous wank! Thanks for the link, it made me giggle. People never cease to amaze me.
