minxyHello Dreamwidth open beta! Welcome to your third trimester.
I sincerely hope![[staff profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user_staff.png)
denise, mark and janinedog have had a chance to get some sleep, but the glitch with the payment system looks nicely handled (this has been my experience with dreamwidth so far: not the problems per se, because yes, we're still in beta, but that they're handled quickly, efficiently, and with transparency.)
I'm beginning to panic about getting everything done in California and moving gracefully to New York without a hitch. I've decided I have to sell my car, so that's fun and extra work. I'm still involved in massive planning for a canoe race in three weeks, and I have two more months of work here to come through on. Then I have to choose a reputable and affordable moving company, organize packing and pick-up, find a new apartment, say good-bye here, visit with my family and get my arse (and my stuff) successfully installed in New York.
Which is probably why I'm dreaming of major illness in my family (my Mom has a history of cancer) but I seriously wish my subconscious would fuck off, because no amount of time can pass before even the dream of a relapse doesn't sent you into a tail-spin. Not a good way to start the day, srsly.
So, true to my own particular idiom, I offer gifts: Dreamwidth invites, as many as I have, first come first served (the first who came were those who responded a month ago to an LJ post, but I believe most of them found other sources of invites in the meantime.) Holla.
And, since thetealc_ficathon went live today (I'm going to be late, but I'll make it) I'd love to be the first to recommend janedavitt's haunting Teal'c/Cameron stranded story. She wrote it to my prompts, but so transcended them it's just amazing. Jane does a gorgeous job of having them get caught up in their own minds and dreams and then eventually connect to each other as something real, if just as characteristically frustrated. She does a particularly fine job of Teal'c's familiarity with the Tau'ri that still maintains a greater perspective of them in general and particular.
I sincerely hope
