I'll saunter past the obvious pun in my title. But this is what I discovered this week in the Internet Archives and then spent time documenting on Fanlore.

I feel like I am cautiously able to poke my head up and look around again.
1. We're waiting for the dishwasher parts at which point we will try to repair the dishwasher once again. After that it is curtains for the machine.
2. I am eating a bit more but only with the help of medication. I plan to go back to the MD after the holiday and ask for the ovarian cancer screening. It is most likely the EDS (connective tissue disorder) that is causing the problems but the symptoms are lasting longer than ever and even the medications are not restoring me like they used to. Once the BigC is ruled out I feel I'll have the luxury to fiddle with the other more likely-but-not-likely-to-kill-you tests/possibilities. The tests are fairly cheap and non-invasive a(at least until they find something odd) and together can catch up to 80% of the cancer. Earlier detection vastly increases your odds. So if you find yourself :
- Abdominal pressure, fullness, swelling or bloating (me)
- Urinary urgency
- Pelvic discomfort or pain
- Persistent indigestion, gas or nausea (me)
- Unexplained changes in bowel habits, such as constipation (me)
that is persistent (more than 3 weeks) and not going away. Get tested. 3. Had a lovely chat with a friend that cheered me up. 4. Was deeply amused by this fanzine listing: Flying Nun fanzines. oh my! 5. I too have Livejournal membership discount coupons to give away - if anyone is planning on becoming a paid member, the coupon will give you $10/off a yearly subscription. Just drop a comment below. I think you need to be on my reading list. 6. xlorp begins his 2 week (unpaid) time off next week. I'd rather have more time with him than the money so it is all good.

If I've done this correctly, links to all the participating Sweet Charity vidders on the final compilation should be here. Clickable & lickable - go forth and watch and leave feedback.

1. Stove is here. we're going to need to fiddle with the temp calibration - first stop is to get a new oven gauge as the old one is fluctuating.
2. amusement fact of the day: people who send you messages via LJ inbox but set their privacy settings so you cannot reply via the same. And then are vague in their requests. Making it harder = no response - not given what is happening around Casa De Morgan Dawn these past few months.
3. we got caught up on both Glee and Dexter. I like Glee for the music. As for Dexter - wow. Any word if it has been renewed for next year?
To still catch up: Fringe, Flash Forward, Dollhouse (we've missed all of season 2), Big Bang Season 2.

Working with websites stored on the Internet Archives is a lot like how the Internet used to be before Google and search engines. The only way you found another website was to click on a link..and then another...and then another. You wandered the deserts being guided by wisps of clouds and the angle of the sun. And if you ever looked back....you'd see no trace of how you got there.
Which is why finding this and then being able to create the Fanlore entry here made my day.
