I left the plantation at 1:30, ran an errand, got some lunch, and brought myself home. I put my pajamas back on and maxed out on my bed with my laptop and my brand new AU. I typed up the first 15 pages for a still untitled story that puts a twist on It Takes a Village and has Emily and Ian as estranged parents of a kidnapped boy. Since nothing much else is going on, and that is just fine by me, I thought I would post the beginning here and try to get some feedback. Dont everyone jump at once *lol* Love or hate Ian Doyle, I would love to know what people think.

Now I'm gonna go and get some dinner and finish relaxing. Plans to clean have been postponed but not officially canceled.

Babylon

PLEASE DONT POST IN THE bau_inbox. THANKS : )

OK guys, you know I'm writing an AU where Emily's in a rock band and she's being stalked. Well its called Babylon, after the name of Emily's band. I decided to post a piece, since I'm 15,000 words in and almost 40 pages. Its killing me cuz I have to make it a case fic but its also one I'm working hard on and wanna share. So I'm sharing. Here is Hotch and Prentiss, meeting for the first time. Hope you enjoy it...feedback is loverly.

Friends

This is a public post, I havent had one of those in a while and I'm sure I'll make it private again once I start getting all the spam.

I've been going through some things and its time to make some changes. I'm doing a friends cut. LJ has been less busy than before, which I guess happens with all things, but its more than that. Its time for some relationships to just come to an end for me. As I've always said, there should be no hard feelings, its not a personal thing and it never will be. There have been good times with every single person on my f-list over the years and I enjoyed our time.

Anyway, no point in rambling on. Thank you for all the time we've had together.

You guys know what time it is.....COMMENT FIC!!!!

Let's get it started, Criminal Minds het ships and character pieces. AU, canon, fanon, and all those strange but fun places in between. More than one prompt is great and expect stories in the evening since the man has me on a short leash these days. I'm still in the mood for fun though and I hope you guys are too : )

On your mark get set, go!

FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION

I dont often do public posts as you end up with a vast amount of comment spam from people you never heard of with weird sentences about Harry Potter or Twilight. But there are many people who I am 'friends of' because of my fic and I wanted them to be able to see this too. I hate to call this the post where I toot my horn, that's not it. I wrote 196 fics in 2010. Here are some that stood out for me. Maybe others stood out for you and that's awesome. It's time for the cmfanficawards nominations so if you like my fic, here are some of last year's highlights IMO.

Some of you have read a lot of these stories. Some of you might have an adventure doing that now. Some might turn of your nose and not really like my fic, pairings, or scenarios at all. And still another group might think there are some fics I didnt even mention that fit the categories better. This is just a sampling of a lot of fic I wrote last year and I wanted to share it with you guys. Have fun!

Small Friends Cut

I did another small friends cut. No hard feelings of course. Most of the people cut are people who never post, fandom friends who I talk to in

lairofthemuses but never really talk to here. There may be a little more snipping over the next few days but I think things are cool for now. As everyone knows this is my comfy place where I talk about everything in my life. I'm happy with the people I share this space with and want to continue having many good times.

Friends Cut

I've done a small friends cut, it was the best thing for me. I need to be comfortable here, this is my good place, and I feel like I'm getting closer to that now. I wish all of the people who have been on my f-list, past and present, the best. We've all had our share of ups and downs but nothing was done to be mean. I just have to put my comfort first since this is my little slice of heaven. And of course the usual of some people just stop posting regularly or we just dont have enough in common still applies.

Thanks everybody, for everything.

Hey, I'm in the mood for some comment fic that might turn into more, I dont know. But give me a pairing or character, a scenario, and have some fun. I will write Criminal Minds and I guess a little West Wing but I'm not in the mood for CJ/Abbey....sorry. I'll try anyone else....slash doesnt scare me.

The One with the Song from a Decade Ago

PLEASE DO NOT POST IN THE

bau_inbox. THANK YOU.

So, I was in my cubicle minding my business this morning and all of a sudden a name popped into my head....David Garza. My best friend Heather and I loved him in college. His major label debut, This Euphoria, was our soundtrack....and Slave was one of my favorite songs. I had forgotten about him until that moment. How is that possible when he was so integral to 1998 and 1999? I ordered his CD tonight and bought Slave and Kinder off iTunes. I love him sooooo much and am happy my brain woke up and rediscovered him.

Moving on the season finale of Criminal Minds........

So, what did you guys think? Good, bad, awesome, indifferent.....all opinions are welcome.

PLEASE DONT POST IN THE

Receptionist Kim may be getting fired tomorrow. In other news, I wrote my TV show within a fic fic that I had been working on. It's the sequel to Jack 'Pres' Preston, and I had a blast writing it. I also decided that I need to stop being so crabby about things I can do nothing about including the opinions of others and just love my show, my ships, and everything else I skip over. The popular kids are always going to be the popular kids and I'm always gonna be me. The beat goes on. And now the show.....

I dont wanna go to bed and go to work tomorrow but I was spared a BS staff meeting this week so I think showing up and pickin my cotton is the least that I can do. What did you guys think of the episode? Oh yeah, and re-pimp for The Air I Breathe....my first leap into "almost, sorta, kinda" case fic.

After three weeks my show is back and its back strong. I still have some bones to pick with Mr. Bernero but I love him too. So lets get to it, shall we?

What did you guys think? Oh, and I now have 6 people who have given in and read a Rossi/Strauss and that makes me happier than a pig in slop. Who's next? Give it a try. Liking it isnt a requirement but you'll never know if you dont try. My latest AU, Of Facial Hair and Freudian Slips is up at

Murry had church this evening so I watched Criminal Minds all by myself. The last time I did that was the one with the wolf pack killing the people in DC. Its not as fun alone, I dont have anyone to talk to. The TV and the cat dont answer back. But lets get to it, shall we.....

So, what did you guys think? Murry just got home, I filled her in a little bit, and now I'm gonna finish up my Something More fic and take my butt to bed.

The One With Bupkis

So, Murry and I were sitting in front of the TV, all excited about our show like we are every Wednesday. And at about 9:15 or so, the damn cable went out. That's right, the blizzard wind picked up and the satellite went kahblooey. So guess who didnt see her show tonight? Yeah, that would be me. So......if anyone has access to the download or however it is that people who dont watch it Wednesdays at nine see it, please let me get a hookup. You'll get a story out of it. I appreciate it so much and so does Murry.

Grandmother Prentiss is up at

lairofthemuses. It's #7 in my Something More series. Elizabeth meets Jack.....check it out.

I enjoyed my day off and probably wont be going in tomorrow either as there has been little to no cleanup. They had to pull plows off the road, it was too dangerous. There is about a foot of snow outside our door that has not been shoveled. Philadelphia is a mess, they actually closed major hughways today. So things were just dandy until the satellite, which had been working all day finally gave out. It seems to be OK in snow and rain but wind is its nemesis. I've never missed a first run of Criminal Minds since I started watching in Season 1. It sucks. But we move on.
