Author's Note: READ IT OR DIE!

Okay, people, here's the deal: my CSI plot bunnies have been multiplying at superatonic (I don't think that's a word, but whatever...) speed this last little while, more or less since I first started writing my CSI story Holding a Grudge. The only problem is... I can't fit them into that story, and the plots are too minor to turn into a story of their own.

So, I decided to write these completely random - quite often funny - and plotless, stories to keep my plot bunnies mania, me, and you guys the readers happy as I battle with a particular stubborn bout of Writers Block.

I don't mind whether you guys review for these or not since these are for my entertainment almost more than they are for yours, but some feedback would be nice. Just remember, if you don't like it, don't read it. I don't want to hear you complain about how plotless it is. I know it's plotless, so be warned.

Also be warned for a few scenes with sexual tension in them - for now, it's only a few parts that have it, but I really don't know what I'll be adding. And, of course, knowing Deirdre (her character had expanded so much it's not even funny), there will also be quite a bit of swearing. All in all, it's rated the way it is for a reason.

Moving on, if you haven't read Holding a Grudge, don't worry, you don't have to. All the story bits that have characters from that story (meaning, of course, Deirdre) will be marked with a '1', so if you don't want to get confused, you can skip them or just read the other story.

Before you guys start skipping this, even though I told you not to, I haven't mentioned it yet but really have to, no one you notice is mine. I've tried to buy CSI a bunch of times, I've tried to wish on stars to get it, and even tried to just kidnap Jerry Bruckheimer and Co. to make them give CSI to me, but none of it's worked so far. Have you ever noticed how hard it is for teenagers to get power in the world these days?

Long, I know, but thank you all for bearing through all this blathering and exercising much more patience than I have ever been known to have. I would also like to express my thanks to everyone who's reviewed so far in Holding a Grudge and apoloize for my brain deadedness (not a word again, I know), but I think I'm starting to get over it.

And now, finally, the story,

Many laughs,
