Oh! You know what? I've not even considered slash involving other characters as I tend to only read Twifics where Edward takes centre stage, but ya know what? I might give that a try....Do you have any recs?

Lol, you don't need to divorce me.... yet - I'm Liverpool Fan. 
TBH, I really should support Yeovil or Bristol City as they're the nearest teams to me but Liverpool has been good to my family.
My Aunt used to clean for the FC, and I've another Aunt that used clean for Man U so the rest of the family used to try and annoy both of them by playing them of against each other. 

I've been waiting for ever for an update on Honest Liar, I thought my eyes were deceiving me. 

Hi,

Please pray for Astro's dad. He will be having open heart surgery tomorrow, monday. Hopefully the combined power of our prayers will help make him get better.

She told me to send her love to everyone here.

Thanks!

P.S. Am currently in Malaysia to attend a conference. Might be too busy to check in here the next 5 days. However, if i do receive word from Astro, will definitely let you guys know.

Sending good vibes and prayers Astro's Dads way. 
Hope that you manage to get some down time while in Malaysia 

I'll keep Astro's dad in my thoughts as well.

Objects In Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear
By: TheFicChick
"It's the first time I realize that for all of the significance boy-Edward holds in my past, man-Edward is a stranger to me. The thought is at once liberating and heartbreaking, and I don't know what to do with it: how do you forgive someone who no longer exists? How do you hold a man accountable for a boy's carelessness?"

I keep forgetting we're practically neighbours 

Just down the road.

Okay you two are officially making me jealous now as my only neighbours are cows, duck, sheep etc and I'm pretty sure they never come on here. 
But I still love ya. 

Cows, duck, sheep etc can be preferable to some human neighbours. 

Has anyone read The Crooked Knife by Browneyedbluez? I'm on chapter 130 of 403. I'm liking it so I don't want to flounce it but I feel like I need to take a break and come back to it.

Hi,

Received word from astro:

"Thanks for your support and prayers.

The surgery seemed to go well, but they're keeping him sedated overnight and we'll know more tomorrow. For now, so far, so good."

Keep the prayers coming!

Thanks.

Tell me about it! That is what you'll have over us Loopy, we Londoners all tend to live 'on top of each other'...New Yorkers will know what I mean...I sometime want to petrol bomb my neighbours 

Yeah me too; she seems in OK spirits considering....

Lol, that's true, at least the most I wanna do to my neighbours is see them on plate sometimes if their particularly noisy.

Thanks for keeping us updated hun. 
Really happy to hear everything went okay. 

Bear Creak is definitely worth moving up the list! I'm nearly through and it took me only two days (very short time for me). One of the best fics I read lately and it definitely goes on my all-time-favorite list.

It's funny: I have a Re-read list also, but I fear reading something from that. I'm afraid I won't like the fics I loved back then and ruin my good memories with the re-read. I keep adding fics to the list though.  It's my safe place for emergencies if I run out of new fics. 

Bear Creek was GREAT! I will read anything where Edward has a full beard and drives a pick up truck  As far as re-reading stories, I've found that maybe 1/3 of the stories I've gone back to, were not nearly as satisfying the second time around Mostly because I already know what occurs, and the majority of the stories I go back to read again are drama/romance and I just can't get over how stupid some of the characters can be when it comes to creating a dramatic plot device. So much self sacrificing and hidden feelings that are never shared until years later..

I remember reading Hydraulic Level 5 back when it was still a WIP and forgetting about it, and really enjoying the story, but I re-read it in it's complete form and just could not get over what a douche Edward is in that story. My god.



BTW I just wanted to mention this story I just finished for those of you that prefer vamp fic vs AH fic. It's old, but I just found it recommended on another message board. I really enjoyed it, up until the last few chapters where Volturi politics come into play. Kind of a canon twist on Breaking Dawn, my least favorite Twilight novel

This is a good Rockstarward!

There is a Light by belladonnacullen

This was 1987; before the Internet, before Twitter, before Facebook – this was back when it was still possible for people not to know about things: big things - like bands, and little things - like G-spots. AH, ExB (really liked this one, crazywardrockstar/youngbella/story spans their lifetime)
I still haven't read this one! I guess I should move it up my list!

Thanks for all of the band/rock star fic recommendations.  If you haven't read "There is a Light" I would also recommend it, despite the age difference.

After going through all of the recommendations, I found one that is already on my ereader "Golden Giants Tour" so I downloaded all of the others I haven't read, and will start on the Golden Giants Tour once I am done with Offside (which I had started already).  All the others have been downloaded and join the list to be added to my ereader once I do a major update.

When I was in college I despised the noise ordinances, now I wish there were some or they were enforced when my daughter is trying to go to sleep and she keeps telling me its "too loud" and the parties keep going well past midnight.

Hi,

Thanks.

Glad the surgery went well, and I'll be praying for a good recovery.
