Okay. Everybody, I am not dead, maimed, or in any kind of physical jeopardy (except maybe from a certain woman, but that's not really a bad thing :)). The thing is, I just moved from New York to North Carolina and I didn't just move from one place to another, I moved from living alone to living with my girlfriend, significant other, whatever the latest term is.

So I'm not just in the process of unpacking, putting my stuff where I want it, and cleaning up with Corene to make room for my stuff without crowding hers. I'm also getting used to living with another human being (and that's been loads of fun, since my normal hours are from about 3pm to about 7am and hers are the complete opposite).

I'm also trying to get back to working on my web design jobs (luckily, my move coincided with a natural break in the work assignments) and all the little things of living life, like grocery shopping, watching TV/movies (Corene has cable which has changed my television watching habits a bit; I really missed not having the Sci-Fi Channel), doing the dishes (you would be amazed, or maybe not, at how fast they pile up with two people, one of whom (not me) is a cook), and doing laundry, etc.

So, you might have noticed where writing has been ranking. :) It's not that I haven't been writing, I have, but I haven't been able to devote even remotely the amount of time to it that I was before. I expect that to change (it better change) within the next few months as things settle down again, but my usual updating of every few days isn't going to be happening again any time soon, unfortunately.

So. Here's what I've come up with during my not so little hiatus. Part II of Bloodlines (It's also in the Printer Friendly Versions section). As a little refresher as to what's taken place so far, Clark has told Gabrielle she's going to the Bahamas, when in fact she will be following Gabrielle, and Gabrielle has gone off on a world tour to make sure everyone knows she's in charge now. Clark has been keeping tabs on Gabrielle's movements via the Internet so that she can follow the Queen of the Vampires, though she has also given Gabrielle a silver locket with a hidden GPS emitter inside in case she loses track of the vampire. Gabrielle's most recent stop was in Washington, D.C., where she just hopped on a plane to go to Chicago. This next chapter picks up with Clark going to her precinct to get some equipment she needs for her upcoming travels.

Hope you like it and I will try to get updates done on some of my other stories soon (but I'm still a little pressed for writing time, so it might be another week or more).
