fandom in review - 2007

So I thought, year in review! Now I will pile up my accomplishments throughout the last year and hover over them, crooning softly "My precious...."

...one day, I will have Words with Tolkien for that phrase. *shakes fist* One day.

Now, by accomplishments, one might mean, er, fic. Let's face it, that's what I do. Well, that and wave frequently. I am not a Renaissance girl of much variety; I stick to what I know. And enjoy.

So.

Year in Review 2007

New Fic
( new )

Updated Fic
( updated fic from 2007 )

My (Shared) Challenges
( challenges! )

Um. I'm just making this up for the hell of it.

Things I Have Never Done Until Now (Fictionally Speaking)
( things never done )

Right. I--have no idea what else to put here. Um. Any questions? (No, I have no idea what kind of questions would go here.) I was going to do clever commentary on every story, but then I realized I had no idea what I'd say about some of them.

apology meme 2007

Hmm. The apology meme--that I have not done in a while. And I am bored. Very. Very. Bored.

So.

How I Have Abused My Characters And Liked It, and Now I'm Almost Sorry
( so many crimes against characters, so little time )

Okay, that was much more fun. May add more later as I remember more.

on the order of harrassing calls

Randomly Useful Information:

So last night, I got a hangup call from Statewide Appea on Caller ID. Huh, I said, to myself, because talking to myself is a lot of fun. Why do I not recognize this number? Since I know the main lines to appeals. Since I work in the same agency. Long story short, I checked to see if this *was* a state affiliate. It wasn't, etc, now to the point.

For anyone who gets weird calls, collection calls, hangup calls, this might be a very good resource to track down who/what, or at least, that it exists. It also pointed me to the fact that at least two cards I hold are with people who have a very bad habit of calling constantly in the mistaken belief you owe them money well after pay off. Huh.

Vaguely related to this, because this site is my new place to boggle (claming you work for the Federal government? Oh Collection Agency of Stupidity, not a good idea), ran across this:

Harassing Calls from Debt Collectors - What You Need to Know

Federal Site:
Fair Debt Collection with a list of rights of customers. It also recommends checking out your state's specific guidelines on harassing calls from collection agencies, since some are more restrictive or less so than those listed here.

i am an exciting friday night person

I'm reorganizing, consolidating, and deleting lj tags.

....I am getting the sense I have been going through some kind of transitional tagging personality renaissance in the last year or so. Witness.

1.) a very special kind of crazy
2.) youtube will take your soul
3.) the smell of crazy in the morning
4.) the slow creep of insanity
5.) the eternal darkness of sloths
6.) stupidity is not a god given right

The worst part is, I'm deeply tempted to rename all of my tags to something completely weird and utterly unable to be easily remembered.

...send help.
