minxyNational note: lovely Thanksgiving. Great holidays always involve food. I'm particularly fond of those that also make you think about happy things while you're being gluttonous.
Homely note: when did the Pacific Northwest put in for blue sky in the wintertime? Cuz, liek whoa, that messes with a girl's head.
Neighborly note: dear assholes who keep uncontrolled untrained dogs outside, with no fence, while you're gone all day on Thanksgiving weekend: that dog bit me on the leg and it bled lots. The deputy who came over to take the report looked a bit pale and for some reason did not share my fascination with the wound, but that doesn't mean he won't do his job and try to make you see you are doing that dog no favors by letting it attact unthreatening RUNNERS on the other side of a PUBLIC ROAD. *flips neighbors the bird*. It's your damn fault that the dog catcher is going to take your animal into quarantine to make sure it doesn't have rabies, idiot. Plus, my Dad knows a guy who knows the woman you rent from. It's a small town and they like my Dad. You are toast.
Familial note: I had a great day eating too much with you people despite not getting to run more than 2 miles due to mean untrained dog attacking my left calf. You rock. I love you guys. I even went shopping with you the next day and it was fun *boggle*, and now I have made brilliant headway on Christmas shopping. INCLUDING ideas for presents for the BF (new official designation), which came from my Dad, who generally speaking is very suspicious of boys in my general area. *is impressed with Dad for being so large minded*.
Also, special note to Dad: Thanks for setting up the wireless internet, Dad. Now I can get online without worrying about leaving a history of p0rn sites for my Grandmother to find! *hysterical laughter at the thought*
Meta note: I've had a very up and down few weeks, not helped by Thanksgiving which was both. A really cool discussion is going on at![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kormantic's journal about wonderful and true romantic moments. I love people who get me thinking about beauty and life and it's particularly fitting to be grateful for those things on Thanksgiving.
Fanfic notes (probably why you all read this journal anyway *g*):
janedavitt finished Leaving Time! (Woo hoo! Go girl! Links are *points* back there, somewhere, in the WIP post. Maybe 2 posts back? Not far. You can walk. Just avoid mean dogs... and a more coherent review coming soon.) ETA: so now it's really late and I'm still awake because of this fic and it's really deft how she's woven threads of communication and resistance and miscommunication and love and anger and pain and blending into a piece that starts in one place and ends in a completely different setting. Don't be scared of this fic because of its darkness. It is haunting, and it starts creepy, but more than that it's thought provoking and even the sex has meaning in all of it. Incredible.
and then promptly presents us with some very much thank you PWP spanking fic. LOL. What a gal. I love that woman. Sticky Sweet.
agentotter = Otter, wrote May You Last Forever, a gen or pre-slash fic that is ow and beautiful and ow and holy crap and character! and Daniel is so hurt, so many many times over hurt, and ow. It is such beautiful lyricism.
Also,ana_grrl, formerly of mostly Firefly slash work, takes us to Cameron/Teal'c. Pre-slash, if we need to clarify, but if anyone can't see the sort of electric intimidation with Teal'c I'll make you a watch. It must be written, my people! Teal'c needs looooooooove. Anyway, it's just a short little ficlet, but seriously, there is so much going ON between those guys. She nailed Cameron, too, though unfortunately, not literally. Just a Guy, Saying Hi.
Of course, if my LJ were emailing me my comments I would have known thatrydra_wong sent a heads up on this, but luckily, I have ana on my flist. *is happy*
