The good thing about having a wedding in the family is that you get to meet a lot of cool people you don't generally meet otherwise, and some new cool people you're glad you got to know, and have a lot of fun (and food). The bad thing about having a wedding in the family is that everyone, including the said cool people, start with the invariable "You're all grown up!", "Just like your mum", and "When you get married..." routine. *sigh*

In case I haven't mentioned before, a cousin – a girl I've known all my life and love dearly - got married on Sunday, and there was much celebrating. Cousin's Husband is a great guy; the little bit of my heart (a really tiny and almost invisible one) that was still slightly cynical about him was completely won over when he took us out to dinner last night and regaled us with fabulous stories and alchohol. *g*

The [livejournal.com profile] ship_manifesto M/N essay. Good (nails all the points about the M/N dynamic), but I'd have preferred a little more... passion, I guess (read the Buffy/Faith, or Wes/Lilah essay to get what I mean). I have thrown in fic recs, since the author seems to think there are no good fics out there in the fandom (heh. What can I say?).

Could someone please dig out the link for the old SB3 and rec Leigh's Jericho? Throw in *your* recs as well, will you? Do this for your fandom. *vbeg*

Also, will [livejournal.com profile] msgenevieve and [livejournal.com profile] nell65 *do* something about their AU WiPs so that people can actually, like, link to them?

And. [livejournal.com profile] idol_reflection. Go and sign, my pretties.

That should be [livejournal.com profile] idol_reflection, a sister comm to [livejournal.com profile] ship_manifesto. Go and see for yourself. *g*

Aha. Thanks for fixing that. *g*

Just went and looked.

Looks quite interesting, and I'm looking forward to reading a lot of the HP ones. I'm surprised they don't have more representation in some of the big fandoms, like the various Star Trek incarnations.

I'm sure it will...

like [livejournal.com profile] ship_manifesto, which gradually gathered pace. Meanwhile, someone needs to write about Paul and Madeline, don't you think?

Go ahead and volunteer. Or pester Cyanide, except that she's too lazy. LOL.

I'm sure the mod feels she's seen more than enough of me.
