Month In Review(s) - March 2019
March was blood, sweat, and tears.
...literally!
March was a month in which I worked my a** off (no change there then!) and learned that apparently when my body's decided I've worked too much, it gives me a spike of Anxiety and a nose-bleed.
I f**k you not.

Nerd Church - 4 Tips For Blogging When Busy
I've been super-busy lately, and I've just about managed to keep up with the blogging.
I haven't got everything done that I wanted to do, but I've kept it ticking over with my average of 3 posts a week, plus answering comments, blog-hopping, Twitter-ing, and all the hidden blog tasks like SEO and finding images for posts.

Phew! When I put it that way, I wonder how I've been doing all this plus running my own business and dealing with regular life-stuff, but I have! (No wonder I've been so tired!)
Also there has been literal blood, sweat, and tears over the past month - I've come to the conclusion that I don't need to add to that with stress over blogging!

Friday Fics Fix - A Future?
'"Fine, fine," Granger said, starting to pace. "Only my boyfriend is a Neanderthal who won't look past the end of his nose."
"Ah, perfectly understandable then," Narcissa said kindly.'
It's time for some more from the king of all fandoms - Harry Potter.
Seriously, there would be soooo much less fan content in the world without Harry Potter! Lol.
We thank you, Potterheads, we thank you. 😉

Nerd Church - Brexit and Hatred
I almost cried yesterday.

There was a pro-Brexit march outside parliament, and as I was watching the news, I saw a White Dragon flag go by.
I didn't know wtf it was at first - it looked like someone had poorly reconstructed a Welsh flag after having one described to them by someone who saw a picture of one twenty years ago.
A White Dragon. Facing the wrong way. On a red background.

Friday Fics Fix - Mischief-Making
'Peter turned around and left the lab area in a calm and orderly fashion*.
*in this situation, calm and orderly means that Peter sprinted the f**k away from there, trying not to scream.
And he continued this way, all the way to the quarters where Loki was staying, slamming the door open to reveal Shuri painting Loki’s nails.'
I LOVE THIS FIC!
Argh, the realism of the surrealism of it all is just awesome! 😅
