Insanely long acronym is right! I wasn't here early enough to have run into that one, so I'm a)amused, and b)glad to have it at least partially explained.
When I read something and don't comment on it, it's most likely to be a case of not immediately being able to come up with what it is I want to say, or how to say it. Sometimes it's because the thing has made me all thinky, and sometimes it's because I really don't have much to say beyond "nice", and that always seems so... damning with faint praise, when that's usually not the intention, I just don't have much to add.
Although I was home on Sunday and saw your fic, we were both in serious wind-down mode, and about all I accomplished that day was laundry and decanting pictures from the camera.
Oh, I absolutely understand. After all, when we go on vacation, the returning day always involves a long drive with The Whirlwind. It gives real force to the concept of a particle in a box. One day we made the mistake of trying to do it without medicating her. She'd been losing weight on the medication, and if you flunk an ADHD drug because you lose weight, you are off that medication for life, so we wanted her eating, so we decided to take that day off medication, since we had many DVDs to anaesthetize her with. Then the DVD player died some 20 minutes into the trip. At hour 4 of the 6 hour trip, my infinitely patient husband had shouted himself hoarse trying to make it clear that kicking the driver's seat in terrible traffic was likely to resort in tragedy, and when we stopped shortly later, I went for a 5 mile hike (and my family picked me up as they passed me by the side of the road) because the alternative, infanticide, would have been a poor choice. So, yeah. Destressing is the order of the day!
