Hi all. Ilene here with your friendly autumnal update reminding you to
set your clocks back on Sunday! I hate the fact that it's already getting
dark earlier and earlier and then, wham, we help it along. Here's some
reading to help keep you warm on an ever earlier getting dark night.
- The
Tightest Knot by Maderlin Bidmead on Merwolf's Academy of Bards [alt/über/unfinished]
When desperation is all you have, is it enough to overcome the righteousness
of another? Directly follows the events of The Binding Tie and The Strongest
Bond.
- Adam
Chiron's Duality of Hope and Despair on Merwolf's Academy of Bards (Xena)
Six years have passed since the emergence of the Avatar of Dahak. From
Greece to the borders of Chin, Hope holds sway over a kingdom of ignorance
and fear. She is seen as a savior by those once under the rule of Rome. But
few understand that she cares nothing for the peace she has brought to
these. In secret she and powerful allies perform dark rituals whose purpose
is anything but peaceful. Backed by massive armies, fearsome warlords and
even the God of War , she seems unstoppable. But in the west stands a
growing alliance who refuses to bow to Hope. And that is led by the most
unlikely hero imaginable. Added part 2

Play - Part 29 By Cruise On Club Uber 2000 [alt, original]

let’s not forget Brooke and Mary
Wednesday, October 25, 2006
As I sit here listening to Melissa Etheridge, I wonder: why do we get
dealt the hand we do? Why do we love someone so dearly but yet keep them at
arms length? Do we really love them? Is love something that we work at or
does it come up sneaking behind us? Can we love two people at the same time?
If yes, how do we deal with it? Do we go for door number one- the one you
have waited for to be with for so long or door number two-the one the is new
and fresh and seems so right? How do we know if we are making the right
choice? Do we have regrets?

Man what a thunderstorm!! One of the lightning strikes hit a metal pole
in my backyard. Lit up the whole yard. Flash and crash were simultaneous -
and LOUD. The dogs went berserk. I love a good storm. Of course it meant
that I couldn't do this any earlier - still better late than never. See you
next weekend folks.

It's Friday so it must be me, Ilene. Does anyone else out there have a
name that can be other words? If so, do you get people who think they are
the first to think of a play on your name? You know, like someone with one
leg shorter than the other would be named "I lean" Enjoy the story
and the weekend...

Hi all. Ilene here, once again. Happy Friday the 13th! Sorry I have no
pearls of wisdom to share this evening except…have you ever wondered
whether a prerequisite for being a physical therapist must be that you are a
registered sadist and if you willingly see one, you must be a
masochist!?!?!?

So another week is almost over. My mind are on things that I just cant
get passed. I think I need to start writing. Maybe it will help me. I have a
beautiful wood looking journal here, that I got as a gift for inspiration,
maybe I should rub it for thoughts?

Xena, Gabrielle, and the rest of the characters from the show are all living
in the same town after the series has ended. In my story the characters have
played themselves in the series. Some things that happened on the show are
real and some are not. This is a lighthearted take on some of those events
and Xena and Gabrielle's new life. In my Xenaverse anything goes!

be a miracle - yahoo has been a bitch all weekend and I've barely been able
to read my mail let alone reply to any. And then there's the weather...

laptop's been off and the modem etc has been umplugged... storms seem to be
over now so I'm taking the chance and updating. On to the update - just the
