I feel horribly ganged-up upon by inanimate objects. And, I suppose, the total strangers (who are animate) sending these inanimate emails and telephone calls. Just... a *lot* of web orders. And emails. And the phone hasn't stopped ringing such that I haven't even *listened* to my metric craploads of voicemails yet.

*buries head in paperwork, like ostrich*

I will get through today. I WILL.

I probably shouldn't have hit [livejournal.com profile] mystic_isles000, though. That was kind of unprofessional. Even though it was totally in self-defense because she jumped out at me from nowhere. *snuggles sister* She has apparently forgiven me, because she just came into my office and did her Jack-as-velociraptor-in-"Broca-Divide" impersonation for me. My day is much improved.

It's so nice to work in the same place, even if our coworkers (justifiably) believe we are complete and utter loony bin escapees.

On the other hand, Sam could then be required to dose him nightly with aloe, or something. Mm. hands in new places.

"I'm naked, Carter."

That is just...so wrong, and yet rather amusing...

Did they ever mine in salt mines on the show? I remember one where Daniel went off to be semi-royalty and look hot, whilst the other three were mining *something*, but I don't remember what it was...Daniel got addicted to the sarcophagus, I believe...

Er. Yes. Eheh.

they don't so much mine salt on SG-1. Naquadah, yes. Trinium. I don't think they've ever mined anything that can actually be formed by things that exist on our current periodic table.

I guess it's no odder than mining pergium, or dilithium. Except those sound real to me. Because I got geeked on Star Trek young.

And did we ever figure out what sort of "ore" got processed on Terok Nor? I think they do a lot of generic ore mining in Star Trek.

LOL. Yes, generic mining, just like generic caves on away team missions.

Sam and Jack should definitely have traded massages there. Definitely. And snuggled together for body heat at night. *nods* (and, I suppose, so that random miners and guards wouldn't try and snag her. Although it might be fun to watch them try, because she'd kick them in the head)

But damn. That last big arc of DS9 is, like, the sexiest television EVER. I made at least two people get into the show and watch the entire series just so that they could watch and appreciate the final chapter. Breen! Damar! OdoandKira!! EZRI! Man, I loves it all.

Jack: "Uh... yeah."
Jonas: "Oh. And there was something else. About fishing?"
Teal'c: "I believe O'Neill has requested her to accompany him on fishing trips on numerous occasions."
Jonas: "Oh. Is that why she has a 'fishing for dummies' book hidden in her office?"
Jack: "What?"
Jonas: "Yeah. She put another dust jacket on it. I found it when I was trying to look up the metric weight of the Golden Gate Bridge."

Because I am a bad person. A lot of my job is fits-and-starts between calls but I can't leave my desk if I'm waiting for someone to call back (and the rest of the process of dealing with these orders takes place in other rooms), so... pretty much everyone with a computer has an internet vice in this place. :) And now you're making me feel guilty.

So...

...what is pants!verse? I am terribly curious! Obviously it involves pants, and possibly the strategic removal of same, but...

*looks inquisitive*

*laughs*

Date: 2004-07-13 05:04 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mylittleredgirl.livejournal.com
pants!verse came from a long chat between me and [livejournal.com profile] elly427 and [livejournal.com profile] familyarchives about how Sam and Jack really need to work on their *friendship* (a la Star Trek pairings like Picard/Crusher and Riker/Troi), and also, how we could arrange it that Sam and Jack date while on SG-1 (because ten thousand fanfic writers under the age of 14 can't all be wrong). We came up with the solution that they wouldn't realize, or admit, that they were dating. They're just FRIENDS! Who hang out. A lot. And go places, like to dinner and to the movies. And kiss, sometimes, because they are friends and care about each other. But they're not dating, so it's okay. And along the way, Sam would come up with a bunch of strange rules to make absolutely sure they aren't dating, because she's Sam, the most important of which is that the pants stay on.

Basically, this results in them building a solid friendship and being very very happy, because they get to be together all the time and get to know each other and *gasp* fool around without there being all this ANGST. And, incidentally, also makes it a lot more likely that they will be able to get into a "real" relationship without pants later without crashing and burning, because they had this long warming-up period of friendship and fun and pants. YAY!

Oh, that's great! :) I am a great fan of "ships with pants" and getting to know someone and loving them and falling in love in a decent and civilized manner (not that mad snogs *can't* be involved) and, as you say, not crashing and burning.

I shall check out [livejournal.com profile] shipwithpants--but I think I'm liking it already. And Sam would totally come up with the rules, which would slowly become less and less relevant. Jack would probably eventually try to see how many of the rules he could make her forget--but would also see the advantage of "no, we're NOT dating!"

Hee. I love the way you guys think, sometimes....
