Can anyone with knowledge of 'Archive of Our Own' help me...

The FAQs state that I can embed an image into my fic but it doesn't tell me how. Can anyone either tell me or point me in the direction of the instructions?

Thanks!

Bathroom/Hall Closet:
1 and 1/2 hours (and 1 garbage bag)

Dear self:
please, for the love of all that's shiny and bright, remember to take your meds in the morning like a good little girl when deciding to (insanely) plan a lunch out with your children and your parents (and then forget to grab the iPad for the children to play with when they are waiting for and then finished with their food)

Dear waitstaff:
while I am not judging your performance or friendliness (both were quite fantastic), your timeliness had a little to be desired - also, please don't come back to our table after the meal only when I am in the restroom with younger child (I am sure it was coincidental, but I am also sure that I am a better tipper than my mother and generally less gripey, though not the one paying for this particular meal)

Dear younger son:
I am not sure what has gotten into you this afternoon, but we have talked about the screaching and squeeling - I am not amused, in fact, I am quite the opposite and I am at a loss for how to deal with it

Dear older couple who decided to obviously and bodily turn (rather than nonchalantly glance) to give younger son and I the stickeye:
younger son is not spoiled or a brat - he is autistic
I am not a bad mother - I am simply doing my best to deal with this particular behavior without losing my cool (or my mind) and your passive-aggressive annoyance within my field of vision while trying to talk younger son down does not help in the slightest

Dear mother:
thank you for providing silent back-up and not trying to deal with younger son *over* me as you have done in the past - I appreciate the effort
however, the grumbling about restaurant employees has got to stop - don't complain and tell me how 'ridiculous' this, that, and the other thing is when I am quite sure you are grumbling at the wrong person - you *never* ask for the bill from the waitstaff; you *always* just complain to me that they have not yet brought the bill

Dear father:
silent, but steady - thanks (no sarcasm, honestly)

Dear sister:
though you couldn't make it to lunch due to your children's playdates, you are (as always) awesome! thank you so much for allowing me to gripe to you (the entire drive home) while you ate your sandwich and just listened and agreed and encouraged. unlike our mother (who must use the phrases "if I were you, I'd..." and "you should..." at least a dozen times in all conversations whether advice was asked for or not - usually *not*), we have the ablility to let the other complain and get our grumbles out without reproach and I hope you know that I appreciate it just as much as you do

Dear older son:
please stop handing me your bowl - we *just* got home from eating lunch and you are *not* getting a snack right now

Dear meds:
please kick in soon!

I've seen a few stories on AO3 and I like the look and format of it. I 'applied' for an invite and they told me that there were 3905 people ahead of me and that I could expect to get a page at the end of April.

So, my question is: is it quicker to ask my Flist for an invite to the site? And, if so, can someone invite me?

;-)

title: Cat and Mouse
crossover: a Grimm fanfic with some Supernatural characters

( to the story... )

Anyone have episodes (avi-s) of Grimm they are willing to share? I'm up-to-date but have finally convinced husband that they are worth a watch. Of course, now NBC (and Hulu) only have as far back as episode 5. I'd love to get them all.

I thought that there was a new episode of Supernatural on last week, but my DVR recorded a repeat. Was it new? My guide says tonight is a repeat as well. What's going on? When will there be new episodes again?

thanks

The meme:

Pick up the nearest book to you.
Turn to page 45.
The first (I assume 'full') sentence will describe your sex life in 2012.

There were others: wild Connachtmen all, as untamable, as unaccountable as their own wonderful countryside.

yes, strangely, the book nearest me was a collection of Irish Folk Tales...
and having absolutely no connection to the fact that husband's entire family is trying to plan a trip to Ireland this year (or possibly next)

eek

Yes, these days I only seem to post when I need to ask for things - this time, however, it is just for advise. Oh, and I am working on a story... we'll see how that goes...

Anyway, I need a new digital camera. Any advise on the matter? Brand? Features? Anything?

Thanks so much!

Well, it's another case of "Arg! All of my music is on husband's out-of-commission computer!"

My sister is trying to make a photo slide show of my grandfather (who passed away not quite a month ago) for all of our relatives - she did the same five years ago for our grandmother. Anyway, she wants to give it out at his birthday get-together (in about a week) but is having trouble getting a specific song... a song that I have on husband's computer and, therefore, cannot access.

Is anyone willing to upload "Our House" by Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young for us? Please!

I don't suppose anyone will be willing to share tonight's "Supernatural" and "Grimm" episodes with me...

I figured I would record one and watch the other but now "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" has moved to Friday nights (Once Upon a Time took its original spot) and tonight is a 2-hour episode (from 8-10). This is one of two shows husband records (as he is never home at the actual showtimes). Plus, they are redoing a home for a family with 2 autistic boys... kinda close to home for us so we will definitely want to catch it.

Long story short (too late!), I will not be able to watch either "Supernatural" or the premiere of "Grimm" nor will I be able to record either of them. Anyone willing to help? PLEASE!

Yep, that's right. I went to watch the latest Supernatural episode and found that my DVR (once again) did not record it.

Anyone want to help a fellow-fan out and shoot me a link to download?

Thanks!

( Here they be... )

So, a little bit ago, sneaky_sena posted a link to this (http://generalzoi.deviantart.com/art/Pony-Creator-Full-Version-254295904) site - an adorable and fun My Little Pony maker. So, I was having a little fun with it...




( this was the best I could do with the choices given )

I am very confused! I have seen 3 episodes this season (On Guard, Where there's a Will, and Deadline).

I know that there is another aired episode but I am not sure what it is called. IMDb has no name for 3.04. 'Dentist of Detroit' is listed as 3.05 (which, I think, is the current episode). Did they skip 3.04? Am I wrong about the current episode?

So, here's the situation...

My mother bought my father an MP3 player and a GPS for Fathers Day. He was interested in the GPS but not so much the MP3 player. So, mother decided to keep it for herself.

Now, she wants me to put the music on it knowing that husband and I have amassed quite the substantial and eclectic collection. The problem is that all of our music is on husband's computer, which is currently unwell and of no use.

So, long story short (too late!) I was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to share some music. Mother loves movie musicals (not as big on the stage productions) and rom-coms (and the cheerful, pop-style music that comes with them).

We would both be very grateful. Thank you!
