    Thank you. You really made my mom's day. She added the card to her notebook that she carries with her to all doc appointments. And yes, I did giggle at my card. Very adorable.

    Thank you so very much for thinking of us.

    Still Life, With Pets
    Well. Hello there, again.

    I feel a little like, every time I get into a routine with LJ (and writing) again, my life blows up in a way that sends me scurrying back into disarray and hiding. Clearly my real life is jealous of our relationship, LJ, and is trying to come between us.

    Bastards.

    Thank you very much, everyone who wished me a happy birthday. This was kind of a nonentity birthday for me this year (for obvious reasons) but I still had a really lovely day. Thank you for that.

    I spent about a week in a funk of do-nothing—including writing—but this week, I've been more energetic, puttering around the house, getting my errands run, and getting some writing done.

    I had an idea for a Criminal Minds AU that I may end up turning into an original story instead. As fanfic, I'm intimidated by the length; I'm just not up for another long story right now. As original fic, I'm intimidated by the necessary research since pretty much everything I know about the Bureau comes from TV. So I don't know.

    Mostly, I'm just grateful to be writing anything. I thought about signing up for a [community profile] yuletide pinch hit, since I had to so ignobly back out, but I think it's a pipe dream; I'm feeling too shaky about my ability to produce on demand and I can't face bailing twice, especially this close to the deadline. So.

    Thinking about January or February, I've still got that JDM ficathon thing I proposed a couple months ago. Which leads me to present the question to the electorate: what kind of ficathon do y'all want?

    Option 1: a straight fic exchange where you make a request and you fulfill a request.

    Option 2: a prompt based 'thon, where people make prompts and participants pick the prompt they want, on a first-come, first-served basis.

    Option 3: free-for-all. Everyone writes whatever they want, as long as JDM is a major character.

    Wii?
    I'm thinking of buying a Wii thingy for my nephews for Christmas. Is anyone up on it that could walk me through what I need to buy, to have a basic set up for two kids? I'm trying to figure it out and I'm totally lost.

    Thanks for any help!

    Update! Because deep down I know you care...
    Really, really deep down. *cough*

    - I have 3 different fics that would be done if I could get my porn muse to cooperate. One that's my original santas_lap contribution, one that's a very overdue gift, and one that no one cares about but me. Heh.

    - Holiday cards have started coming in! My wall is getting festive.

    - Speaking of festive, I decorated! I posted photos to my RL blog, and can't figure out if y'all care enough to repost here. I'm going to go the lazy route and wait for someone to ask, I think.

    - Made one sale of holiday cards at Etsy, two to people I know IRL, and have a line on two more. Otherwise, Etsy has been a total flop, sigh. But there are zombie head stitch markers! How can someone not want to love those? One good thing about Etsy is that it's very cheap when things don't sell.

    - Sent out my cards for the HP Holiday Art Card Exchange. Will post after I'm sure they've been received!

    - Finished my own card design, and now I just need to spend a day printing, folding, writing in, addressing and stamping. Also need to do this for RL people.

    - A little behind on shopping, mostly due to lack of funds. Ah, well, something good will happen soon! Either that, or everyone else is just gettin' cards, dammit. XD

    Happy Holidays to you all -- I hear it's starting Hanukkah tonight, if that's your thing enjoy the candles and latkes! And remember, next time someone snottily insists on a Merry Christmas instead of Happy Holidays, Auntie Amy says it's always appropriate to reply wishing them a miserable New Year. *cough*

    Thoughts on frozen water falling from the sky and accumulating on the ground
    Honestly, why do people live where it snows?

    Do not misunderstand. I like snow. I like it very much when I'm sitting by the fire at a ski lodge, sipping hot cocoa and reading a good book and waiting for room service to bring my dinner. I like it when it's drifting down romantically, settling softly all along the needles of the evergreens, and making the holiday lights on charming cottages sparkle. I like it when I'm out in it playing with my nephews, throwing snow balls and making snow men.

    I do not like it when it makes cars slip all over roads and closes down airports and prevents one from doing what one is supposed to be doing, such as coming home or working.

    The bottom line is this, I'm back from a trip, the journey home massively sucked, and I'm so tired I cannot move.

    Did you miss me? I missed you!

    Hi guys!
    Just popping in for a moment before I go pick up mom and Amber. I wanted to tell you again just how much all of the pretties on my Profile page have meant to me. They've given me some nice smiles on some really stressful days lately and I thank you all so much for them.

    Mom's doing better. I've actually gotten to sleep in the bed the last couple of days instead of the chair in her room so, yay! Lee's been out of town again but he gets back in today which is also wonderful. Of course, we had to pay for his room ourselves again which is fun right here at Christmas but, we'll cope. We'd already decided not to get each other anything any way.

    I've been getting more of Lee's mom's jewelry cleaned up and I got a few pieces posted on EBay. They're here if you'd like to take a look. There are some really nice pieces. They're a help to me but it still makes me sad to think of her compulsively buying all this stuff and none of us even knowing about it. I'll probably get more posted as I can because anything I make off of it will help. Especially between Lee's dental stuff and this trip he just made for work.

    But, we're all hanging in there and that's the most important part. I even won tickets for us to go see Lights Under Louisville next week which will be fun. It looks neat. It's a huge cavern from an old Rock Quarry and they've decorated the whole thing with Christmas lights. It goes for over a mile. We wanted to see it and now we'll be able to. :)

    Well, got to go. It's mom and Amber time. Hope everyone's having a good Friday. I'll check back in as soon as I can.

    *hugs*

    Oh Lana Turner We Love You Get Up
    Back from Chicago. I'm doing okay. I already did the RL quasi-update elsewhere, but I wanted to thank everyone for the lovely snowflakes and other virtual gifts, for your emails and texts and PMs and phone calls, for your patience, your sympathy and your love. I spent a good portion of my life exercising really poor decision making in my friends and other loved ones and I am still constantly bemused and grateful for ending up here, with the finest people of whom I ever dreamed. Thank you.

    I couldn't find it in myself to do much in Chicago; I didn't really read or watch TV and I had internet access only infrequently, so fannishly, I'm really far behind. Other than that brief, indulgent foray into Criminal Minds fandom, I haven't written a damn thing. Which probably means it was a good thing I dropped out of [info - community] yuletide (and many thanks to [info - personal] elynross for being so incredibly understanding!) That's not an apology, it's just the facts. I don't feel bad about it, but I keep poking at that place, that squishy little gland of squee and interest, seeing if I can make it wake up again. I know it'll come--hell, the CM ficlet was only after a week, right?--but y'all know how impatient I am. And all the things that I can never just come out and say, all the things I can't process in other ways, always come out in my writing.

    So. That happened.
