For those who read it, Through the years has suffered a slight hiccup. My computer decided that it would die, while I was in hte process of working on part 20. I lost it all, plus two other story ideas I had open. I usually save it to my portable hard drive (i mean who wouldn't, it's got like 1 T of space to save things on) but before I could get to that point, the computer gave up the fight.

So I am trying my best to re-write the story to where I had it

I'm less than a week from having been a member of this fine site for five years - can you believe it?

I just wanted to say thanks to Erin and her fine band of pixies that do their doin's keeping the place together. Also, thanks to all the kind people I have met, who take the time and trouble to read my gobbledegook, perhaps even clicking the Kudos button, dropping me a comment or both.

Here's to another five :)

Anyone else having trouble?

As a reminder, 'Neath Quicksilver's Moon will be unpublished today. It will be submitted for eBook publication tomorrow on both Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble, but both outfits "vet" their submissions before final publication, so I can't guarantee when they'll appear. I'll supply a link to each venue when they do appear.

Film following the journey and the prejudice encountered along the way of gay couple Sam and Evan as they undergo the process of changing their bodies from female to male.

BBC3 tonight at 9.00pm.

According to the Guardian, they look to move to Manchester in the hope of finding more acceptance than they get in Rochdale. I wish them luck.

Just the two of them.

It was a cold, dark, stormy night. The storm had come quickly

and each time the thunder boomed he watched her jump.

She looked across the room and admired his strong appearance...and

I don't post here often, apart from my stories, preferring instead to write directly. I try not to post if I don't have something important to say.

My mom suffers from short-term memory problems. Things that happened an hour ago she may or may not remember; things from years ago she remembers as clearly as anyone else.

Well, thanks to all the loving support I get here, I'm doing better. Now with that crisis behind me (hopefully), I wanted to talk about my boy name. I'm not sure why I've been so reluctant to share it, going so far as to create a pseudonym even in my autobiographical story "night entries". I'm gonna have to mull this one for a bit.

This morning at 1:00 AM I finished a short story, complete with the extra spaces between paragraphs that Drupal requires. As far as I was concerned, it was ready to publish.

This morning I got up and decided to give it one last read to check for continuity. Much to my discomfiture, all those blooming extra carriage returns are gone! Can I have not remembered correctly? Did I forget to save my work? I am quite certain that I saved it and I have auto save set at 5 minutes.

Just went to a local thrift store where no one pays much attention to what others are doing and tried on various pant sizes. 30" mens relaxed fit slip off my waist and sit around my crotch, 29" mens relaxed fit compress my hips and still want to slip off my waist, just can't with the hip compression going on.

Sizes 4-6 womens though... depending on style, are almost perfect. There was this pair of size 5 skinny jeans that were practically molded for me...

Seeing the entry in the list this morning for Bike 1491, it occurred to me how eeire that it would have been, if the 1492 entry had fallen on Monday, which is the day we celebrate Columbus day here in the states.

So close...

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming..

First of all. the surgery itself went very well, but I re-affirmed my belief that the squeaky wheel DOES get the grease. For months, the V.A. tried to tell me that my blurry vision was a simple problem that could be solved by using eyedrops. I insisted that it was much more than that, and finally went to an outside opthemlogist who informed me that I did indeed have a cataract! I went back to the V.A. with the proof and they finally did a more detailed exam, confirming the cataract and finally scheduled me for the surgery.

Sorry Everybody who's waiting for this weeks "You Have it all Wrong" by SaraUK this week, I'm afraid I'm had a thumping headache most of the day and I haven't got the HTML done for it. Hopefully I'll feel better after a nights kip and if so I'll do it first thing Sat morning.
