Love and Lawsuits!


Helen's having a great Love Litigating Lawyers Day, but I hope she cuts the celebration short and gets back to her job. That fourteen-hour day isn't going to work itself, after all.

She might have time for a picnic, though, if she decides to observe National Eat Outside Day. Unfortunately, I don't think it will work as there isn't a way to plug in a microwave outdoors and therefore no lasagna. Sorry, Helen!

Finally, happy National Dan Day to Danny, and I hope he's satisfied with his long distance phone service even if Quinn never actually called him.

Fanfic Update!
  • I'd Like to Make Myself Believe, by JoeMerl (COMPLETE!): "'Hey, look.' Jane jerked her head toward the quad, and the twenty or so little lights that danced above the grass. 'Fireflies.'"

  • Mega Mall Mega Problems, by cfardell_Brenorenz29 (part 6): "Brittany saw Daria and Jennifer come out and bounced over to them. 'You got something?' she asked."

  • Quinn in Yellow, by welltemperedclavier (COMPLETE!): "'I’m impressed. Surprised, but impressed. It appears you have some backbone after all,' mom said."

  • Shadows of a Timeless Song, by Dennis (part 16): "'We have something else in common then,' Daria stood, feeling a sudden urgency. 'How soon can we leave? Is there a train this afternoon?'"

  • That Undiscovered Country, by E. A. Smith (parts 1 - 3): "I wiped the sweat from my forehead with a moist palm, but it made no difference; immediately afterwards, salty water was once again pouring down behind my lenses and into my eyes." (Part 2) (Part 3)

  • to live on the other side, by sixspades (COMPLETE!): "Daria Morgendorffer has always been considered an ‘outcast.’ Although her parents were hopeful things would change after moving to Lawndale, Daria knew kids her age better than her parents did, and it came with the unfortunate truth that the attitudes they can have are universal."
