Cold, shoes, fic

[louiselux]

Once more I am germ central. Yesterday a man coughed all over me on the train and now look. Sneezing, runny nose, inability to motivate self to do massive piles of work that need to be done for Monday. It's not hard work, but there's lots of it. I am at home, wondering if going upstairs to watch morning TV is a good idea. I could have toast with honey and a nice cup of tea. Or germ-fighting cold medicine.

For years I've heard people say that the Administration series by Manna is great. I've read most of the first part and have to say that so far it really is, and I do recommend it for a satisfying read. It's original slash fic. I used to think you couldn't have such a thing, because slash to me meant pairing two characters who had no romantic involvement in the source text, and in that sense Manna's story isn't slash, but it's definitely slashy. And very good.

I'm cheering myself up with Office shoes:
gold and bronze and cream with diamante buckle, red sparkly ballet pumps or greeeeeen, red wedges, cutie heels with felt flowers

Also, GIP!

Sorry to hear you've relapsed :-( Get well soon.

I love that series! I hope she keeps writing it.

I like the felt flower ones - very cute.

Thanks. I will fight the evil germs. Maybe I need a Gekiwanger to help me?

On her website she says she's not writing any more of it, sadly. :(

[toscas-kiss.livejournal.com]

Maybe you do. ;-D

Bummer!

BTW - the icon? Such a bad pun! LOL

[tboy.livejournal.com]

Much love for the icon.

Hope the sniffles leave you alone, my sweet. I shall send you some vegemite (finally!) to boost your system, and scare away germs.

Oh yes, Manna's fic is wonderful. I love to wallow in it for days at a time. Hmmm. I'm overdue for a reread, actually. Perhaps this weekend :-).

Oooh, vegemite! I love marmite, our UK version. I'm up for different types of mite though, so it would be gratefully recieved. :)

I'm looking forward to reading the rest of Manna's series.

Go away, germs!

You should lie around with chocolate and . . . well, more chocolate, really. Maybe some pretty youkai to feed it to you.

Those shoes are really very cheerful!

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Mmmm, chocolate. Mmm, pretty youkai.

I am easily cheered up.

Thanks!

Me thinks Louise has a shoe fetish. I think you're the only one I know that posts pics of shoes.

~ would rather see porn, but shoes are good too ~ XD

Bwah! Let me tell you, I'd rather be writing it than sitting here doing my rather boring work. *g*

[new-kate.livejournal.com]

Shooooooes!!!
Aw, get well soon! *hugs* Honey is cold-fighting medicine in its own right.
And thank you for the rec! It's awesome.

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Aww, thanks:)

Glad to hear you like that fic-- it's amazingly well written, and has such a complex plot and addictive characters. I'm really in awe.

Ack, germs! Get the vitamin C! Orange juice! Tea! All of that good stuff.

Ooh, shoes! The ones with the flowers are adorable.
