Originally posted by Akamaimom View PostSo, because (and this will make this post On Topic--kinda) I'm more like Jack than Sam, how do I do that? For example. I have a fic of my own that I've converted into a PDF. How do I then get it into the program so that I can read it? I know--I'm not even in the 20th century at this point--closer to the 19th than anything else. I just don't know the basics of what I'm doing.
Can't you just see it? **Wavy dream indicators here**
Computer Problems Ficlet
Spoiler:"Hey Sam."
"Yeah, Jack?"
"How do I do it again?"
"How do you do what again?"
"The music thing." His voice was tinged with frustration.
Sam sighed, then set aside the book she'd been reading and stood. "Hold on, I'll be right there." It took her a few minutes to round the coffee table and head into the den, where her husband sat in front of the computer.
He waved a hand at the contraption on the desk in front of him. "It won't do it"
"Do what?"
"Whatever it's supposed to do." Jack shrugged. "You know this idiotic thing better than I do. Either that, or I'm too stupid to use computers."
Scanning the application spread out on her monitor, Sam leaned over his shoulder and clicked a few keys on the keyboard, then reached for the mouse, balancing herself with a hand on his broad shoulder. "Not too stupid, just not as interested."
"I'm interested."
"Since when?" She couldn't control the urge to snort. "You'd be happier if they'd never invented the things in the first place."
"They're good for some things."
"Like what?" Making a few more deliberate clicks with the mouse, the problem was rectified. She squeezed his shoulder. "Like solitaire? Flight Simulator?"
His quick swivel of his chair caught her off-guard, and she found herself unceremoniously toppled off her feet to land across his lap, his hands on her rib cage holding her steady. Eminently confident, his lips curved in a grin that she would have labeled 'predatory' had she not known the man wielding it. "Nope."
Her blond brows rose. "Then maybe you should enlighten me."
"Well." Jack pretended to consider, his fingers finding their way under the hem of her shirt. "I've found that it's fairly simple to screw computers up."
"And how would that be a good thing?"
"It's a great thing." Leaning forward, he brushed a kiss across the smile that had arisen on Sam's lips. A single dimple appeared in his right cheek as he tightened his hold on her. "Because I happen to know this cute geek who can fix it for me."
She wriggled in his lap. Deliberately. "How very advantageous for you."
This time his kiss was longer, and deeper. And his resulting smile even more self-satisfied. "Oh, I think that there are some perks for the geek, too."
But she'd already leaned in to kiss him again.
I just spent a loooot of time hitting replay on Cags' vid too. *happy shippy sigh*sigpic

Sharon, lovely ficlet.
I'm home!Spoiler:Finally! Slept in my own bed last night. Got reacquainted with my own dog and am now sitting in my own office chair (at home still) planning lessons. Ahhhh...home. Hmmm, there's a fic in there, I'm sure of it.
Clicky for a brief glimpse of our cruise through the Panama Canal.
To make for some of the off-topicness of this post, here's the gif:

I mean we all want to learn what drives us to hypnotic tendencies once we click that gif.
I always say to myself: Self, you will only watch this once.
But does self listen?
NO WAY!!!
But then I'm really studying their technique: Sam goes in, gets hands involved. Jack responds, also gets hand involved. Head movement, open mouthed strategizing.
Let's face it.
It's all in the name of education right?
Right.
That's my explanation and I'm stickin' with it.Last edited by trinity3; 10 January 2011, 10:57 AM.

No?
Jack will give Sam some simple earrings...perhaps the ones she wore in the last episode of SGA!
Sam...she gives Jack either a fishing rod(giggles) or something for up at the cabin, because I think Jack would already have all the Simpson seasons and thus Sam doesn't need to buy that for him!
In general, TbH, I think they are just happy to be with each other and that would be the greatest gift of all.

EDIT: as for wedding anniversary...for flowers, I know my father always gives my mother a bouquet of flowers for the amount of years they've been married(red roses; which is cliche but mom's favorite) ...so yeah I can see Jack doing that for Sam too in a way...still I can't see him go to a store to buy the flowers.
That reminds me of the fact...wasn't it mentioned somewhere in the series that Sam liked plants/flowers?sigpic

I'm here! I have been helping my eight year old with a report about the state of Washington. Fun!
What do they give each other for their anniversary? I think they go out for dinner, and then he gives her. . .
ooooohhhhh. Can't just say it, it needs to be a ficlet. . Darn it. I've got a thousand other things to do tonight! But the Muse demands obedience!
