weekend recap and fic update
Back from a wonderful anniversary weekend! We went down to St. Michael's, MD and stayed at an awesome bed & breakfast there. Spent some quality time the first day at the Brewery, where we met another couple from the DC area. We ended up meeting up with them again the next night and drinking with them for hours - yay new (drunk) friends! ;-) We also demolished a dozen crabs between the two of us for dinner on Saturday night.
On Sunday we went kayaking for most of the day. Drank prosecco and white wine in the kayak because we are classy like that. Watched a bald eagle flying right above us. Swam around in the bay until we both got lightly stung by jellyfish (we knew they were in the bay but they're not dangerous. The stings didn't hurt much at all, and it was kind of a bonding experience since we both got to learn what it felt like!) Watched some redneck karaoke and ate crab and shrimp in like every style possible.
Then today we did a wine tasting and walked around and went to the harbor to look for Johnny Depp's yacht (not really - he's in Hawaii filming PoTC 4 - but supposedly a lot of celebs come to that area and his yacht has been seen there, along with a bunch of other famous peoples').
Now I'm back home snuggling my dog (dog-free vacation was LOVELY...but at the same time we're already planning to bring her with next time...sigh).
FIC UPDATE:
- EPIC PINTO IS FINISHED. Hoping to post later this week all in one go. CLEAR YOUR SCHEDULES!!

reeltrek fic is in the works!
- Coffee Fix - I got a little distracted last week, but I do have two more installments planned. I've started the first one, just have to sit down and make myself finish it and not get distracted by shiny new plotbunnies.

rpf_big_bang fic is stalled out at 7,000 words. I need to punch it in the face to get it going again.
-Fuck you all for making me consider a Trekkies In Love sequel. And by "consider" I mean "start writing." See above note re: shiny new plotbunnies. I would be mad at my brain if I weren't so excited.

I love kayaking. I had certificates in it once upon a time. Too fat to fit in one now, I think.
EPIC PINTO! \o/ POST IT POST IT POST EEEEET.
Finish the goddamn coffeeverse already! I am trying to save it to read in one big epic mooshy blow out and you're making it really tough to do so because I want to read it so, so, so bad. THINK OF ME. PUT MY NEEDS FIRST. DAMMIT.

Epic Pinto and more Coffee Fix 'verse = WIN.

Epic Pinto?
You are like sunshine in my dark life!
Seriously.
Very happy you had such an amazing time.

coffee 'verse will never end! well, maybe i'll try to end it after the next two...but i am at the mercy of the ficlets as they enter my brain. so i wouldn't really call it a WIP. ANYWAY, the point is, you should read it now! or, ya know, later. :-D
