I really should have updated again before now, because I had brainy thoughts, but then there were things! And stuff! Anyway. The Good: I finished the winter program at work on time. I have two weeks holidays. My brother is visiting for Christmas. The Bad: I picked up my mother's awful cold on my first day of vacation, and it's peaking right about...now. I have to go in to work anyway some time this week to do some website updates. The Fabulous: Yuletide is here!

I know everyone thinks they have the best stories for Yuletide, but seriously, I got the best stories for Yuletide. You have no idea. (But you will!)

In Ascension, By Descent [ Political Animals ]
TJ and Dougie growing up in the White House together and everything they go through. This story is seriously everything that I asked for and everything I only just hinted I might like and just a whole lot more on top of that. And long and detailed and intimate. I feel like the luckiest girl in the world.

Love Letters from Earth [ Solar System - Anthropomorphic ]
And also! I seriously got an epistolary anthropomorphic solar system treat (Earth/Mars) and it is brilliant and poetic and gorgeous. I honestly had no idea what kind of story my prompt would inspire and I could not be more pleased.

I could rave so much more about both of them but it is very late and can't finger, can't brain. And now, oh god, I need to go to bed. I know everyone is planning on sleeping in, but morning is still going to come a lot sooner than I'm expecting...
