Author's Notes: This was supposed to go up yesterday, both as Valentine #4 and as a birthday gift for wychwood (a short B-Day gift, I know, but at least I stuck with the spirit of your request). Sadly, yesterday was my start-of-travel, and the hotel I stayed in had no internet (I have a 7AM flight and so couldn't take a morning ferry). Sorry!
Secondary Author's Note: The title comes from a term used in Post-Colonial Theory.

Author's Note: This is, completely and entirely, the fault of kijikun. She saw my SGC Euphemisms List and demanded something similar in the Torchwood vein. So, here it is. As always, suggestions loved.

Well, today's the day.

The first of February, marking the start of yet another 14 Valentines. Sadly, real life has done its damnedest to run away with me, so I'm not sure if I'll be hitting all 14, but I'm certainly going to try. Everything from the proposed listing may not make it up, but I hope you enjoy what *does* get posted. And remember, this isn't just a fic drive, it's an awareness drive. Take a few minutes to click on the links, to read the essays and think about the issues they raise.

Enjoy!!

As previously stated - contrary to popular belief, I'm not actually dead yet.

Advice Seeking:

Now, the real reason for this post (as if bitching about the evils of computer hardware isn't a legitimate reason): ( What, exactly, should I do with my lonesome on the anniversary of my birth?? )

I was going to post a fannish wishlist, but between one thing and another, I wasn't able to sit down and pull one together in a timely manner, so we'll leave that until next year. A good Torchwood icon would be appreciated, though. Or, you know, whatever. You lot are a creative bunch.

( Tomorrow is August 14. That's exactly 6 months before Valentine's Day. )

Wish me luck ^_^
