Amazingly, I'm feeling better
Jan. 17th, 2005 08:23 pmWell, wish I could say I did something exciting while there was an outtage. Unfortunately, I spent most of the time laying on the sofa. I had been blaming feeling bad on the diet. Low blood sugar and all that. But even after upping carbs I still felt like crap. I finally had to admit, it's not diet. I'm sick. Just plain sick. This afternoon I finally gave up and called my sister (she's a doctor) to beg for antibiotics. Now, hopped up on Dayquil and antibiotics I'm feeling better than I have in nearly a week. Hopefully keeping the dosage up and I'll be back to myself again soon. I hate feeling so blah and headachy.
I did manage to (FINALLY!) finish the Giles/Buffy scene. A Spike/Xander scene, Wesley/Fred's phone message scene, and a Spike/Buffy cliffhanger scene and I will FINALLY be finished with this chapter. Of course I know good and well that the Spike/Buffy scene in the next chapter will be every bit as teeth pulling difficult as this chapter's Giles/Buffy scene. By the time I finish this stupid story no one will be left reading Spuffy fanfic. Then again, I always wrote fanfic for myself. As I think Ww1614 pointed out, I still have Spuffy issues I'm trying to work out.

Date: 2005-01-18 05:30 am (UTC)Post it to your LJ, and you'll at least have me as a reader (and, I suspect, many other people on your flist). Spuffy will never die!
*cough* Don't mean to get carried away there.
My brother, a most generous young man who works at a used book/CD/DVD store, has procured for me seasons one through six of Buffy on DVD. (That is his way of compensating me for babysitting his daughter twice a week. Needless to say, I have no complaints.) I can now watch the better Spuffy episodes whenever I wish, and ignore those episodes that are best left unmentioned. Anyway, my point is, as long as there are DVDs, you will have an audience for your fic.

But -- yay! -- now I'm only one scene short of completing this chapter! Progress.

Date: 2005-01-19 06:32 pm (UTC)In my own fanfic I've mostly come to terms with Buffy and can even manage to sympathize with Fanfic!Buffy (even if she never does like she's told). But if I ever slip back into discussing Season 6 or 7 I end up realizing that the H-A-T-E has not gone away.
