Micropoetry - January 2019
I realise it's nearly the end of February.
Fashionably late, dearest nerdlets, fashionably late 😎
The first of February's two pieces of Micropoetry is yet more proof that I've been listening to too much Eminem lately 😅
The second one is kind of personal... hopefully it's ok as a piece of poetry too.
As always, the poetry is in the alt-text for those using screen readers.

Friday Fics Fix - Yer a Wizard ...Ianto?
'“Ianto?” Jack was looking down from his office. He slowly descended the steps. “One of your friends is the Minister for Magic.”'
I'm starting to come to the conclusion that literally everything has been mixed with Harry Potter in fanfiction-form.
Kind of like the magical PG version of Rule 34
...Well, mostly PG.
...Well, some of it's PG.
...Well, this fic doesn't have any sex, ok?!
(If you don't know what rule 34 is, I advise protecting your innocence and not looking it up. You can't unknow it!)

Month in Review(s) - January 2019
January went by in a flash - and not the cool, Barry Allen, kind. (You gotta love nerd humour 😁)
I guess it's because I had an awful cold for half the month...? 😷
And aside from that, I've just been doing the usual, hectic, working-my-a**-off, stuff.

Nerd Church - Rebel Valentine 3: Revenge of the Roses
Is it just me?
No, really, is it me?
Is there something fundamentally unlovable about me? Am I undeserving of romance or love? Is that why no-one’s ever been ‘in the picture’?
Am I broken?
These thoughts are, of course, utter b*llsh**.
But part of me still kinda believes them.
Welcome to Rebel Valentine 3!
If you’ve read previous Rebel Valentine’s posts, you probably know where this is going.
If not, buckle up and prepare for potentially TMI. (I’ll try to keep it lowkey, but no promises!)

Friday Fics Fix - What If?
'He was strangely touched that Sherlock had remembered his fondness for meringue.'
'...wait, wait, wait! Cee, are you saying you're recommending something you don't even like?'
Why? Because even though I'm not sure I like it, I am sure that it's interesting.
