There is nothing new in the world

[clocketpatch]

I've got a bit of a scrambled up belief system, but the multi-verse as presented by Discworld suits me well. The idea that there is a multi-verse and that anything CAN happen, but not everything DOES happen, because we make the choice between can and does. I believe that there is a place somewhere where all of the ideas and possibilities gather and sleep and give out inspiration to anyone who bothers to listen. And I believe that belief itself can sometimes make the unreal real.

Which is all just prologue to me noticing last night that Night Watch by Terry Pratchett and Life on Mars share several spooky plot similarities, and wouldn't it be fun to have Sam Vimes and Sam Tyler meet up on the beat one night and have a chat?

The Rules of The Internet tell me that this must exist somewhere, because the Internet is the multi-verse personified. So... does anyone know of the existence of such a fic?

(and bonus points if the Brig is involved.)

The quirks indeed. I think I have changed in the past few years (if only by the addition of a few years) but then, you never know you've changed when you have and you always think you have when you haven't. Just like going mad. Which I might've been doing a bit of as well, but never mind that.

How is life getting on for you at the moment?

Oh, you've grown. Probably mostly in small ways that will only become apparent with time. ;) I never meant to suggest you hadn't. It's just that the quirkness, ability to rant and rave, and creative brilliance that drew me to you several years ago (I think I have that right) are still there.

That makes me SOOOOO happy. :D

Sometimes, people change so much, so quickly (because they have to OR they are pushing themselves to) that I rarely recognize them anymore. And I can't find an equal ground to stand on with them. No longer see the amazing friend who got me through a period in my life. They've become "the friend from that time" or the old friend instead of "the friend I can still smile about and talk to" or the always BFF. :)

I'm glad you are the latter. :)

Life for me has changed too, at least somewhat. Finishing up graduate school by December. I've got at least a seasonal position at Target for the next few months with the possibility of it turning into a more permanent position. But I'm always still looking to get myself into an administrative position in healthcare, whether that is at a hospital or clinic or at some company that produces healthcare material. If I can't get one by next January, I plan on applying for other temporary positions (maybe B&N or Bed Bath & Beyond.

As for the rest of the my life, I did move to a house with my parents last March. I can't remember, if I told you that at some point or not. Also, I was asked to be a godmother by a cousin-in-law, so I'm very very excited about that. I've never been a godmother before. I have no idea what it entitles from me, but I do know I'm at least going to try to spoil my godchild as much as I can. XD Other than that, I'm still writing - mostly in the DC comic fandoms, but I try to dabble in DW and Stargate from time to time.

btw, I am going to leave comments on your new story. I read the first chapter before class. I just haven't had a chance to comment. But, oh, I will. ;)

So for now, please take care! *huggles* I miss you and I really, sincerely hope we can chat again sometime.
