Joy, joy, joy

I am pretty darned happy today. Here are some of the reasons why:

1) I'm going to get to meet and spend significant time with mynuet, rainpuddle13, and (I've heard rumors) heyurs during the days between Christmas and my birthday. I'm SO excited! Seriously, SO excited. Did I mention that I'm excited?

2) I checked my friends page this morning to find a 'Diminished' drabble from lady_rhiyana just for ME! She writes the best Lucius I've ever read. It's so good, I don't even feel badly for cheating on D/G with this not-exactly-romantic L/G.

3) I'm able to do some nice and/or helpful things for folks I care about this season.

4) I have festive winter icons!

I'm feeling pretty fortunate.



And, just because I feel like sharing my morning with you all, here is a conversation that took place at my house today.

Mer: Mom! I can't take a shower - the water's cold!
Me: Meredith, I told you that if you want to make sure you have hot water, you should shower at night. James and I are both up before you in the mornings.
Mer (huffily): Well, what am I supposed to do?
Me: You can either suffer through a cold shower...
Mer (interrupts): No. It's freezing!
Me (getting exasperated): Then you go without a shower! What do you want me to do, Mer? Pull hot water from my butt?
James: It would be 98.6 degrees if it made the trip all the way through you.
Me & Mer: ...
James: Just stating a fact.

Oh James, what are we going to do with him?

*SQUEE* I wish I could join in the festivities! You deserve to have so silly girl time!

You're happy! I'm happy! The world loves us!

Yayayayay! I wish you could come wish us, too! *sigh* I suppose I'll just have to make another road trip later. I've never been to Chicago...
