Ditto, just deleted it.

So, am currently in the hospital. Was rushed yesterday to the ER bec i suddenly had stomache pains that made me vomit and poop. Lost consciousness for a while. My family thought i was a goner. They had to insert an NGT  to release the pressure in my abdomen. It was pancreatitis. So stuck here for a few days.  Thankfully they didn't insist to reinsert the NGT when it got dislodged after a oughing fit. Man, i guess i was really out of it as I didn't remember it was THAT painful when they first put it in. But when they tried agaiin after a few hours, it hurt like a b*tch and won't get past my nasal cavity through my throat.  :-\ :'( I hope I won't need it again as after 24 hours of not eating, i was only allowed jello and some water. What sucks now is wearing an adult diaper.and cleaning up while you have an IV. At least the pain in my stomache in now tolerable. Sucks to be sick!

Been there, done too much of that.  Those tubes are awful!  Hope you're better and home quick.

That's awful. Sorry you aren't feeling well.

They stuck one of those things down my throat before. Not fun at all.

Hope you feel better soon  :-* :-* :-*

Currently reading Living Royal by D-Twilighter. I am on chapter 21 out of 41 and I am trying hard to stick this one out. It is moving slow and I am having a hard time getting into this one. Has anyone read this? Does it improve later?
I think I tried reading one of her Actorwards. I started it about 3 times before I actually read the whole thing. Can't remember why I had trouble reading it. I'll look it up when I get my stuff unpacked. Lots of work travel lately.

I just got off the phone with Amazon. I ordered an SD card in May that didn't show up. So they sent a new one. Well, it finally came. Not the new one, that came 2 weeks ago. This was the original one that didn't show even though tracking said it was delivered. So I called to return it. I don't really need two. They can't figure out how to return it without giving me a credit. So I guess I get to keep it.  I told them if they figure out how to do it, to email me. I feel bad but kind of happy - like I won something.  :)

At least you did the honest thing and tried to work it out with them to return it. Not everyone would have done that. They would have just kept both and not said anything. Koodo's to you!!

I always think it's bad karma not to do the right thing.  And I don't really need 2 of them. Though I'm sure I can find a use for it. ;)

Ella - Amazon is like that - if you don't get an item and reorder and finally end up with both, they'll tell you to keep both.  Same holds true if they send the wrong item and go and replace it - they tell you to keep both and not bother sending item back.   Why do you think they are doing better than storefront stores.   You get an item faster from them than you would anyone else on top of that.   Amazon is king (or queen).  Why bother going to 5 different stores trying to find something when all you have to do is click on Amazon and find it and you don't have to go any further than your computer/laptop/ipad/or whatever device you use.

Similar thing happened to me last year with a DVD and I ended up with two copies of the same Box Set, I gave the "spare" one to my Father-in-Law as a birthday present.  ^-^ :D

At least you contacted Amazon and let them know, as most people wouldn't of. I'm sure that you can find some use for the second card no doubt, if not you've always got a spare if you misplace the other one I suppose.  :)

EP is one of my all time favourite fics, I've actually lost count how many times I've read as it's been that many times. ;)
It does get a bit repetitive in places but it is so worth the read, it's probably THE best mafia fic out there (but that's only my opinion  :P). It's a story that will make you feel a wide range of emotions and stay with you long after you've read it.

If you make it through the fic try reading some of the outtakes as they are really good as well.  :)

I'm probably the only one who will tell you no. But then I don't like Mafia fics. LOL! 

If you do like them, everyone else raves about EP. And if you want to read the cleaned up version, she did publish it.

Not the only one, Ella.  It's better than the Storm series by SexyLexyCullen, but it's too damn long and repetitive.  It's like the soaps on TV.  If you watch once a week, you can keep up with what's going on.  Every chapter is 75-80 pages long, so I skimmed the whole story.  I was able to keep up with the story line and spend more time on the bits that interested me.  Too many POVs revisiting the same event make it tedious.

Thank you!  It's my first Mobfic, and I do like elements of it, but agree about the repetition, but at least its not word for word.

How different is the published fic besides the obvious name changes?

I've been meaning to read Sempre (and the sequel) by J.M. Darhower for awhile now to have a comparison, but haven't had the strength. Like Loopy said, it stays with you. While I remember thinking that it was too wordy, the plot was just gut-wrenching. I remember inundating all my friends about it. So many tissues. So many. Ugh, my chest hurts. Yeah, I'm still not ready to reread.

On the other hand, I just reread the carano's Grand trilogy for, I don't know, maybe the 8th time. A worthwhile mob fic that I suggest reading prior to sexylexicullen's Storm series as some characters overlap (though it's not necessary).

Isn't it in there? That's not good.  That means I missed updating something.  Sorry about that.  Okay, it should update tonight.

I did get it, but I wasn't syncing with Google because I was having some problems with Drive not letting me shut my computer and I turned it off from auto updating.  I guess I forgot to turn it back on....

Awwww, don't blame mafiawards. I love them. I actually came across this while looking for the other kind of MOB stories (mail order bride). Actually I'm stretching, I was looking for any arranged marriage fics that I haven't already read.

I kind of lump all my Married in Vegas to a one night stand/stranger/hated person with my arranged marriages.  It keeps my Kindle collections manageable.  Anyway, I found I read and liked the following:

Bella is running away from a guy who got her pregnant.  Edward feels the need to help her, so they end up married.  He may have been a little drunk, though she wasn't.

I'm not sure this fits, but it is a contract marriage where Edward hates Bella for ruining his life.

What happens here, doesn't ALWAYS stay here. It took Bella one cheating ex-boyfriend and a few drinks to find herself married to Edward Cullen, who is handsome, weathly, and isn't about to let her go that quite easily. Please R&R. /Slightly OOC?/

This one has a strong but slightly annoying Bella who can't figure out why Edward, a most eligible bachelor, wants to stay married when they drunkenly got hitched.   There is a cute twist at the end. And, I don't know the the writer is that good, but I liked the story enough to finish it.


And then there is always the one from a couple pages ago - Marriage and other Catastrophes - You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login

There is also You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login by TwiAddictAnne - I can't remember if I finished it.  I was reading it on my phone and the internet app closed or froze or something, and, as usual, I forgot I was reading it. It started out good.

Hopefully there is something in there that is decent.
