I found out why I wasn't feeling so hot yesterday morning. Seems like I've been hit with an attack of the rabid chihuahua bite disease that I picked up in Texas. It comes and goes and it's come again. *shrug*. It's painful but if Lip could survive Bastogne then I can certainly survive this for a couple of days.

I got some really great news this morning to counterbalance the crappiness of waking up, though. I opened my email to see a message from West of the Moon, the prestigious hobbit fic archive, wants one of my stories! They want to archive To See the Elves, the story I wrote for ancalime8301's birthday last January, and I'm absolutely ecstatic. This is a first for me so please excuse me as I wibble for joy in the corner;-).

Well, I'm off to edit. La la la. Today may not be so bad after all!

Dammit, does this mean I'm going to have the rabid chihuahua bite disease too? I wondered why you took that hunk out of my leg with your teeth the other night, but I thought you were just really excited about Lost.

Yeah, I kind of overdid myself in my excitement, didn't I? Sorry about that, but your leg just looked so tasty that I couldn't help myself.

Don't worry, though, it's only the ankle bites of rabid, rampaging chihuahuas that spread this particular ailment.

Congratulations for the WOTM-request! When they accepted the first fic I'd written I simply burst with pride.

*hugs*

It's amazing, isn't it? I think what has me even more awed and honored is to think that I'm now amongst the ranks of authors I respect and admire so very much. It's both humbling and inspiring.

*hugs hugs hugs you back*

Get well soon! And what wonderful news about the archive -- it's so marvelous to have a story recognized and celebrated.

It is! Writing is a joy in and of itself, but there's something special about getting a little recognition as well. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.

And thank you! I intend to hole up in my smial and work on that getting will thing;-).
