Do I do it now, in the midst of everything preparatory before going away?
Or do I do it when I get back, in the midst of everything aftermath when I get home?
It's usually a tax return rather than having to pay tax, my income is taxed very highly, and there was a fair chunk of time I didn't work in 2023-2024.
ehhh. Gonna do it when I get back.
I have so many other things to do before I leave right in the middle of the 'everything is waking up and GROWING' season...
Not to mention getting my quilts in for the quilt show. Still haven't quilted one, although I've at least done the backing.
I did make a cake and got friends to eat it. it was kind of birthday cake - but more of a gift for me to make, from red velvet cake to ermine buttercream icing, and for me to decorate (rather awkwardly, imo). But it was delicious.

The Crossing of Ships through fannish time and space... (dear author letter)
It's been a while since I've done one of these, so my apologies if it's not quite as adequate as I'd like.

If none of my ideas work for you, dear author, please just write the duo we matched upon and it will be fine.

17th August - Just Married
My requestor has left me no prompts, which is sometimes worse than 'prompts I can't write'.
--
19th September - Ships Crossing
If I can get the sign up in before they close. My nominations have yet to be accepted. (In fairness, I only did them half an hour ago.)

I didn't sign up for the sedoretu exchange this year, I was deep in the weeds of life at the time and simply couldn't get the energy to sign up, let alone write a story.

This week's questions were suggested by ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sparklesalad.
1. What is one food (or meal) you used to hate but now love?
2. If you had to give up one of your favorite foods (or meals) for good, what would it be, and why?
3. Which food seems like it should be healthy and isn't, and do you eat it? Why?
4. If you were an item of food, personified, what would you be and why?
5. You've seen tomatoes and pies used for this purpose ... now think of a more inventive item of food one could throw at someone. What is it and why would throwing it at someone be hilarious?
Copy and paste to your own journal, then reply to this post with a link to your answers. If your journal is private or friends-only, you can post your full answers in the comments below.
If you'd like to suggest questions for a future Friday Five, then do so on DreamWidth or LiveJournal. Old sets that were used have been deleted, so we encourage you to suggest some more!

it's 8:20pm and I just want to go to bed
But I should probably at least do a little bit of my tax return research.
I tried to throw a party this evening. Only a couple of days notice. I suspect that most people didn't see the invitation (fb sucks at timeliness), and the other half weren't able to come at such short notice.
Mind you, even with notice, a lot of people don't bestir themselves to come along.

It was a pretty good birthday. Nothing dire or terrible, at least. A day of work, and bible study at the end, and one of the bible study leaders made cupcakes, so I got a candle stuck in mine and everyone sang happy birthday.
I made a cake. Red velvet with ermine buttercream. I haven't really had a chance to eat it yet. I'm gearing up the courage to invite people around on Saturday night for post-dinner cake.
Anyway, I'm kind of tired, like I said. I've just calculated my mobile phone costs, because I use the phone for some work stuff, and other than that, I think it's health, any expenses (purchases of technology), and donations.
And then my accountant can tear her hair because I haven't put in the things she really wants and it will involve chasing me to get back to her...
--
Day off tomorrow - cousin's wedding. On a Friday. With family. And we're staying in the area (other side of Sydney) for the night, both the twins and I.
Have to speak to the neighbours about feeding the cats and checking the chooks.

Hm. Getting a bit of a headache. I wonder if it was the el cheapo dumplings we had for dinner...
