Catmorgan, I stayed with my sister for a month once when she was stationed in Germany, and I well remember the wackiness of the "showers." 
Also, we had to light the pilot an hour before we wanted hot water.

There is one somewhere! fanfiction.net? I'll try and find it. It's four quick vignettes about girls who get 'zatted' (love it) into ME only to meet untimely and awkward fates. It's very funny.

The only way I could survive in ME is if I had one of those Matrix-type "programs" loaded into my brain so I could fight. Otherwise I would be a spider snack about fifteen minutes after landing.

| Ooooh! Matrix/LoTR crossover! How twisted is that?... (However, we could introduce the pretty deadlocked twins to the pretty Eldarin twins... oh, the prettiness of it all) |

Author is AEMI, the title is Serpent in Paradise. She bills it in her summary as the thinking person's Mary Sue. |

My character is an elf right now. Her name is Gwenneth and I do not even like elves. I have been looking more towards the image of a female hobbit but I lost that story in cyberspace.  I know I can never get it back and it was kind of good.

The only stories I really dont like is when you see all the transported to ME and then having them meet Legolas.  Ok I KNOW we really dont know much about the guy but having all these people have their characters (usually 13-17 i would say) somehow miraculously bump into him and fall in love with him or something like that. Ok that was a bit mean because not all of those writers have that purpose, but if everyone of these stories was inserted to the book ( witch i know is not the point of fanfic) dont you think Legolas would be seriously afraid to leave the house?
Legolas: AHHHH! It raining teenage girls again! No back! BACK!

Hehe. I know when Jenn and I wrote "Eternally," our only purpose was to get Legolas laid, and a noble and worthy purpose it was. Don't worry too much, though. He liked it.
