The Sound of Stars - TFU PnF

Heart of the Warrior - Chap 10Sokka knew that Toph was beautiful, but at that moment, standing in front of him, he could have sworn she was one of the spirits.  Her wedding gown flowed around her small frame.  She almost looked like she was floating.   
"Toph, please," he whispered to her.  "You don't have to do this."  He grabbed her hand as she turned away.     
She bent her head until her chin touched her chest.  "Yes I do."  She heaved a sigh.  "Goodbye, Sokka."   
Toph began to walk away, into the fog that surrounded them.  Her hand started to slide Heart of the Warrior - Chap 10

Heart of the Warrior - Chap. 9Toph stood at the altar at dawn.  Her mother had insisted the wedding be moved up, despite what custom dictated.  When Poppy Bei Fong decided something needed to be done, it was going to get done.   
All her friends were there with her.  Katara had agreed to be her witness and stood next to her.  Aang, Zuko, Mai, and Sokka sat in the front row.  The Earth King himself stood before them, performing the ceremony.   
"If there is no one here present who objects to this union..." he said, and paused, waiting for any response.

"Aye, aye, Captain," she said.  
 
They were being surrounded.  He managed to dispatch two Fire Nation soldiers, losing Boomerang and Space Sword in the process, but more appeared.  All the while, she was sliding through his hold.  Only their fingertips were connected.   
"Sokka," she whispered, and somehow, above the din of the battle, he heard her.  "Don't let me fall…"   
He looked down at her and into her unseeing eyes.  They were begging with him as well.  Don’t let us fall…   Heart of the Warrior - Chap. 8

It's been three weeks since I "lost" my computer and everything on it. It really is a pain trying to get everything back. I can replace all that I've posted, but other than that, I'm totally out of luck. Asshole has been arrested, and his skinny butt is sitting in jail still. He's basically screwed over everyone he knows, so no one will bail him out. He's also pleaded not guilty, so that means we get to go to trial for this. Lovely.

But I just replaced my laptop, so I can finally feel like I'm a part of civilisation again.

So what has been happening?

Happy Anniversary to me!


I hit my two year dA anniversary while *thephoebster was visiting, so I really didn't even notice it. Funnily enough, it falls on her birthday, so that's even more reason why I shouldn't forget it, but I did. Oh well. It's not like I was active or anything for that first year.

I did it! Yay me!


I hit my weight loss goal a few weeks ago. I'm actually really proud of myself for sticking with it this time. I've lost a total of 76 80 pounds (74 was my target), and I've gone from a size 18 (pushing a 20) to a size 10. And because I'm so happy for me, I'm even going to show you before and after.

Here's before, taken in August, 2008:

(That's my older daughter with me. Isn't she beautiful?)

And here's after, taken November 1, 2009:

After

Sorry for the after pic not being so great, but my digital camera is among the "lost", so this was taken by my new webcam. You get the idea though. It's one hell of an improvement, isn't it?

TFU Pic & Fic


I completely missed the TFU Pic & Fic, and my humblest apologies go out to my partner. I promise to have it done sometime this year, but I'm afraid it may have to wait until December, because November is

Nation Novel Writing Month!


Yes, the NaNo. Because I'm sadistic, and I have a new computer, I'm going to give it a try. Don't know what will happen or if I will finish it, but I'm certainly going to give it a try! For anyone that's interested, I'm going to be working on "The Quest," and there's going to be a box on my journal page to let everyone know how far I've gotten. I'll try to update everyday, but don't sue me if I can't get to it, okay?

And since I'm way behind on the word count, it's time I wrapped this up. I'll try to be around a little bit, but I'm going to be buried in my word processing program for the next month. *Must resist temptation to visit dA...*

Wish me luck!
