sorry  
Probably no updates on the site tonight, I just had what the nice people over at Diamond insurance are calling 'an incident' on the drive home. Everyone's fine, my car isn't.

I'm pretty shaken though so I'm going to go curl up under a blanket and try to stop shaking.

I believe this sort of occasion calls for ice cream. =)

Hope you're doing okay.

*smiles* Chocolate chip cookies and cocoa are substituting.

I'm okay, just worried about losing my no-claims bonus on my insurance and the price hike my premium's going to take next year.

I kinda spoke too soon - I've updated the archive page for you!

Cool, thanks for updating that. Also, I have a very cool little PHP page-turning method for multi-page/chapter fics that I could show you if you're interested. Makes for a whole lot less page creation.

I know what you mean with keeping insurance prices down. I hit twenty-five last year, and it dropped my insurance by nearly 20% -- not only does insurance for males go down at that time, but it also meant enough time had passed since my last ticket that it went down for that, too. 'Twas a good year.

Good luck with the car issues.

The PHP tips would be fantastic - I'm using a basic html template for the fics right now but anything that could speed it up would be fantastic! Thank you!

I've had 6 years incident free driving and never been given a ticket (I'm not that concientious a driver, I've just never been caught *g*) so hopefully the price hike won't be too extreme. Luckily I actually just renewed at the end of last month so I've got almost a year to save up for it now. After I pay the excess on the repairs that is...

Is that a new icon? I like.

Thanks - I pretty much just curled up with comfort food and tv. Unfortunately the TV consisted mostly of ER so it might not have been the best thing to calm me down...

*hugs* and virtual Xanders. Glad you're OK. You get some rest.

Darn, you beat me with the virtual Xanders Sam.

*sends virtual Christian Kane's instead*

((((Sho))))

Glad you're okay though.

Thanks - I've left the virtual Xander's and Chris Kane's at home just now, they might have been a little distracting at work...

Thanks - I'm okay, and looking at my car in daylight I think it's okay as well - still needs repair work but it's not as major as I thought it was going to be. Hopefully.

Thanks, I'm doing okay - headachey and being ultra aware of everything that's going on when I'm driving now, but that's probably a good thing really.

Sorry to hear about the 'incident', and I'm glad no-one was hurt. Hopefully your insurance won't be affected too much :)
