Several months ago I requested 2 fics and you wonderful people found them for me. One was "Everything at Once".  But I had to leave town for 2 months to take care of my mom and I cannot for the life of me find or remember what the other one was.  It was about Justin living in New York . Brian either moved there or was visiting and while at a club, he had sex with one of Justin's friends, which made our blond boy unhappy.  I feel like an idiot, but I went back as far as I could and cannot find my post.  There might be a trick to it, but I sure as heck don't know what it is.   So at the risk of looking as lame as I feel,  can you  tell me again what it was called.  I promise to  mark it in  BIG CAPITAL LETTERS and save it in 6 places so I don't lose it again.
Thanks.


ETA: Found it!  It's Announcements by Chering.

Here's (http://community.livejournal.com/getithere/205640.html) your post.
The easiest way to find posts you've made (other than putting them in your memories) is to:
-go to the community archive
-click "subjects" on the latest month
-type "ctrl+F" to find something; type in your username
-then it'll highlight it if your username is on that page.

If it's not on that page, click a month back and keep doing that until you find your posts. It'll be really quick.

It's very useful! I've always known about ctrl+F, but it didn't occur to me to use it for something like this until about a year ago. I was doing what I assume the OP was doing as well, looking back one page at a time trying to find my username among hundreds of words and finally realized this would be easier :P It's actually most useful in this community . I can usually only remember a few key words about something someone was searching for, but now I can type in one word and usually find what I'm looking for pretty quickly :)
