Birthdays and bonfires.
Happy belated Birthday to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
spygrrl76, and Happy Birthday today to desoto_hia873! Hope you both had/will have a fabulous day!

Had a very lovely Bonfire Night last night, with a bonfire, and fireworks, and sparklers, and sausages and jacket potatoes and Darcy's chili stew! (Does any other country in the world eat their dinner OUTSIDE in November, wearing big coats and boots and gloves? My adopted country is WEIRD. Weird, but wonderful.) The Cherub told me that in pre-school they'd heard the story about 'Guy Forks' who 'blowded up a building and made a tunnel under the ground.' We tried to explain that he'd only *tried* to blow 'the building' up, but I'm not sure she got it. 4 year olds like explosions. *g*

In other RL news my parents have just left (I love them, but it is always nice when guests leave, y'know?), but Darcy has decided to work from home so I won't get much (if any) writing done, which is horribly frustrating since my fic is *finally* beginning to behave. (It's been impossible for... 3 months now?) ANYWAY, since I'll be stuck with the laptop, I thought I could try a meme:
Fic meme:
Pick a paragraph (or any passage less than 500 words) from any fanfic I've written, and comment to this post with that selection. I will then give you a DVD commentary on that snippet: what I was thinking when I wrote it, why I wrote it in the first place, what's going on in the character's heads, why I chose certain words, what this moment means in the context of the rest of the fic, lots of awful puns, and anything else that you'd expect to find on a DVD commentary track.
All my fic here. DON'T BE SHY!
