Ooh ficlet! Yay :D We did secret santa at work today, and I got a mini-etch-a-sketch, which I've been playing with all day waiting to play with until I finished work... *innocent face*
The nominations thing really cheered me up - like you, I've been having a bit of a downer on my writing lately (although obviously for different reasons), and it's heartening to see that at least four people don't think I suck...
I love make-up far more than is healthy. Every so often I do a rough guesstimate of how much I've spent on the current contents of my make-up case, and invariably end up giving up when I reach triple figures... When I was a teenager I used to do all my friends' make-up for them, and for a while I had a nice line in fake bruises... ;) Now I'm limited to making up myself, and S when she's feeling generous, or the occasional friend of a friend who bemoans the fact they don't know how to apply the stuff...
Oh and as for the sic tempus series - I agree with Terry - don't force it. If inspiration strikes in time to get it done before the new series starts, then that's great, but if not, don't worry about it. No point in torturing yourself.
