Math-A-Thon

Friday February 6, 2015 at 7:06 AM

HI All!

Last year, my son Zane participated in the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital Math-A-Thon. Thanks to the generous support of our friends and family, including a few folks out there in the Forest, Zane raised over $600 for St. Jude and had the most donations in the school! After the fund drive, Zane shaved his head on honor of the kids at St. Jude. It might not seem like a big deal to a boy with already short hair, but he was really affected by it. I think it really made an impact on my then, 8 year old, to know that his hair would be growing back in a week, when the kids at St. Jude's wouldn't.

So, he's back at it again this year. This is the last year he'll be participating because he'll move to the middle school next year. I'm generally not one to go out of my way soliciting donations or selling random stuff for my kids' school, but he is so passionate about this, that I felt I had to help any way I could!

If anyone has a few bucks to spare, Zane and the kids at St. Jude would appreciate it! Thank you!

Donations can be made here:

TV and comics: discuss. What are you watching? what graphic novel or manga are you into?

 

I'm behind on a lot of stuff but I love watching the Flash every week. :) Perfect combo of tv and geek.

Bondfire ~ Do Over

Thursday February 5, 2015 at 1:40 PM

So, I've been reading Just One Day by Gayle Forman and in the first part of the book I kept thinking about how different Lulu/Allyson's life would have been if she had chosen NOT to go to Paris with Willem. 

Obviously, that's the premise of the book, with Lulu/Allyson acting out of character and then discovering herself. 

So, there are two (well, infinity) roads she could have chosen.

For this week's bondfire, tell us about a single choice that you would go back and change.

It doesn't have to be a HUGE choice, but something that you would DO OVER.

A tiny (or BIG) regret that you have.

Or a choice you made that was out of character but you're proud of and wouldn't change.

 

I've been thinking about Do Overs lately, likely because I joined HULU and kept seeing that ad for that new show, Hindsight.  The main character goes back in time a la Living Backwards (remember that Fanfiction?  I think it's been pulled but I loved that fic and Joan, her flask.) The show is about her having a do over and whether she would choose to marry her husband etc.

Anyone watching that show?  Is it good?

Or come tell us about your favorite Do Over type story/fic/movie!  Or chat with me about Just One Day.  I skipped over most of part two and went straight to the end and then read Just One Night, skipping Willem's story in the sequel entirely.  I'll likely go back and re-read.  And, yes, spanglemaker, I'm going to read your version too because I'm positive that it's lovely.  

 

No graphics because I need to update Adobe and I'm too lazy to do it.  I'll be in and out of the CF because I have to pick up my kids from school plus I'm filling in for someone at work tonight.

Fic Diving 02/03/2015

Tuesday February 3, 2015 at 9:51 AM

 

Diving Deep for Fan Fic Treasures

Each week I will brave the treacherous waters of Fan Fiction for buried treasure. Below are the gems I've found this week!

February is starting out great with a batch of good fics this week!

Please let everyone know that you found them here on ADF!
And, don't forget to VOTE for your favorite stories from January!


 

Behind the Bars by RosieRathbone
After 5 years in jail, Edward finally has the freedom he had been longing for. He soon finds employment at Swan's Stables, a horse ranch where the owner may need him more than she ever thought.

This is a really good start to a Jailward story. 

The Philanthropist by deviant bamboo

Edward is a lost soul, haunted by the altruistic deeds of a dead man. Taking refuge with a group of reformed degenerates in downtown Los Angeles, he struggles to make sense of his reality. Life is hard, but somehow he and his band of misfits make it work day to day. That is, until he stumbles across Bella one night. She'll change everything. AH, Canon couples

Yikes!  B & E have some serious issues here. Edward is a recovering addict, and Bella is thrown into his sometimes ugly world.


anima gemella by Bravery89
In the near future, productivity increases while crime decreases. Why? The government has developed a technology that determines who our soulmates are. Apparently, happy, bonded people don't break the law. Well, this system has ruined my life. I'm unhappy and fighting this bond with my deemed soulmate, Edward Cullen.

I'm very intrigued by this one. It's an original plot. Still not 100% clear on what their plan is, but it's keeping me interested.

Letter From the Heartland by BoysNBooksRBetter
Edward is a movie star struggling with his fame. Bella is a Midwestern girl and busy college student. The two strike up an unlikely friendship after E receives a fan letter from B that forces him to confront his Hollywood demons. The friendship gets complicated when phone calls are no longer enough for the actor and romantic feelings start to become real. E&BPOV AU

I'm loving this one!  It's every fangirl's dream come true!  E & B form a long distance relationship via talk and text. B is hesitant to move forward, and E is worried about bringing her into his crazy life.

FLASH BACK FIC DIVE:

Never Said I Didn't by purelyamuse
Edward is finally ready to play ball, but is Bella? Is it too late? The bases are loaded. He's just waiting for Bella to give him the signal to run. EPOV, Human, High School Fic

Good story about an oblivious Edward getting his head out of his @ss!


Mud, Sweat & Beers by SparrowNotes24
Boot camp in the freezing winter sounds like hell on earth, but is there anything that would make it bearable? Bring on the sexy soldiers! A little bit of fun, a smidgen of angst, and a whole bucket load of muddy lovin'. All Human.

Fun story.  Bella and Rosalie get mixed up with some British soldiers.

Thank you so much for your feedback!  Love hearing from you all!
