Taking Chances, by E. L. Van Hine and L.H. Nicoll

yeah, how come nobody is feeling sorry for Wayne?

Because Wayne has a the hide of a rhinocerous, is generally in the wrong place at the wrong time, doesn't seem as sweetly vulnerable as Dupree and, and ...... OK we're a bunch of insensitive ratbags indulging rampant favouritism and selective compassion but what are ya gonna do?

I did feel sorry for him, but the scene was a bit comical to me at the same time.

I do, I do!

I can understand how Wayne would be totally upset.  Getting run into was accidental, but getting slapped was out of left field and completely unexpected.  Though I also feel sorry for Jeremy.  After all the verbal abuse, Jeeves just sent him over the edge.  Jeremy was not in his right mind when he slapped Wayne and when he calms down, he'll realize what he did and surely feel bad.  (worse?)

Hope you're feeling better soon Louise.

Wayne is a little sod, but, let's be honest, he has given us some laughs. And he doesn't mince his words, calls it as he sees it.

Why would Jeremy face a demotion over Wayne's complaint? He wasn't on duty when he slapped him, was he? Anyway, Ellery got him to calm down, but I wish he was more understanding towards Dupree. Ellery knows what is he going through. Poor Jeremy. On the other hand he's right, people do gossip too much in the bar, but that's how it is, unfortunately. Hopefully, Nick helps him go through this.

I am totally bummed.  

Yesterday was not a good day.  *sigh*

I came home from my doctor's appointment where I learned that I'm being put back on a new SSRI medication after managing to stay off one for 3 years.  I went to check on updates for one of the other BBM WIP fanfics that I'm avidly following, only to find out it is gone, poof, no more.
Now I'll never know how the story turns out and I really hate when that happens.  I wish I had the self-discipline to wait and only read fics that are completed, so as not to get so invested in something that ends up abandoned and has no ending.

I live vicariously through the fictional characters of TV, movies, and fanfiction as an escape from RL.

Sorry for venting my frustration here, but ... I didn't know where else to go.
At times, there are things that go on in fandoms (especially BBM) that to me are just ... depressing.  

I think I need some more happy pics and maybe some happy fics to cheer me up.  (hint-hint)
Looking forward to the wedding chapters of LS, that's fer sure.
