sga_art_santa is totally kicking my arse. :-(
I'm now on the 4th piece after totally abandoning the 3 previous ones (& all those hours & hours of work.)
Basically the prompt I've got just isn't something I can do. So after virtually crying with frustration I've decided I can only do what I'm capable of & I just really hope my recipient will receive it in the spirit it's given & hopefully like it a little at least.
On a brighter note - a funny Buddy-related story.
Bud's got a cuddly toy dog called Lt. Col. John Sheppard (what, what? He's got Rodney the Reindeer too! *g*)
Anyway we went up to my Mom's & she'd bought him a new toy - exactly the same as Lt. Col. John Sheppard, except a different colour. While Bud was playing happily with his new toy I was musing what we should call him. Mr B immediately piped up, "Dave."
So there you go - Dave Sheppard! *g*
We watched the season opener of 'Leverage' last night. How cool is this show? It's got the whole Ocean's Eleven vibe & slickness plus a kick-ass Christian Kane!
I really hope they can keep it up!

Date: 10 Dec 2008 12:24 pm (UTC)I liked the way they didn't automatically go with stereotypes either - like the 'crazy' one being a normal looking girl & not some wild-eyed, grinning madman!
Plus CK doing his Klingon impression was just so cute! *g*

Date: 10 Dec 2008 03:34 pm (UTC)I thought that was pretty cool too. They kinda played with that, making Aldis Hodge the computer geek and Christian the tough one, where the stereotype would have probably been the other way around.
"She's crazy."
"That's what I said!"

Date: 10 Dec 2008 12:35 pm (UTC)I'm sure whatever you come up with will be lovely - you are so talented. And I hope the recipient does indeed accept it in the way it is meant.
I'm sorry it's giving you so much grief. *Hugs gently*

Yes, I've just gone with it & have tried to incorporate some of the prompt (as best as I can!)
Attempt #5 is looking hopeful!

Yay for sending off your story! Your recipient is so lucky - it really is a fabulous fic!
I'm like you now - eager for the posting to begin. :-)
Well, I'm afraid that poor Rodney the Reindeer no longer has any arms or legs as a certain someone pulled them off! He did complain to Lt. Col. JS Dog but unfortunately he no longer has any ears (or a tail!) & couldn't hear him! ;-)

I'm actually going out this evening (sis-in-law's birthday) but I thought I'd make a heavily filtered post with the graphic (heh, pretty much just you & Liresius at this point *g*) & if you wouldn't mind taking a glance, I'd be very grateful. Thank you!
Yay for another Rodney the Reindeer! *g*

Ooh! I've started dl-ing Leverage. I haven't heard anything about it yet. Thanks for the tip.

Well, I've managed to do something - attempt #5!
Yeah, I totally collapsed over Dave Sheppard the Dog!
Don't worry - Bud's already seen off Dave's ears & tail!
I loved Leverage. Only seen the 1st ep so far but it was fabulous.
