1. Back in November or something, lionessblack and I wrote Borrowed Time (or, That One Time Ianto and Jack Committed Grand Theft TARDIS) for the tw_bigbang, and laurab1 did some kickass fanart for it.

Some things never die, and WHY SHOULD THEY when laurab1 had just written a little drabble in the same universe, an excerpt, called Foreign Language (or, One Of The Times Jack and Ianto committed Grand Sex TARDIS) . And it is awesome. Go over and tell her how great and sexy it is! GRAND. SEX. TARDIS. BRILL.

2. daily_deviant unveils their kinky kristmas today and one of the stories is by yours truly. I shall repost later. Brace yourselves—it's NOT Torchwood. I know.

3. wherepiesdie GOES LIVE TODAY. COME ON OVER TO DISCUSS THE PILOT OF TWIN PEAKS, BUT PLEASE READ OUR SPOILER RULES. When I bother to post them.

4. I'm tired. I'm very very tired. I think I have Lupus or something. Maybe I should go see Dr. House for reassurance that it's not.

1. OMG so for the 12 Days of Cliché, which I am not participating in though I should because of, well because, anyway, angstslashhope has created some Torchwood Pulp Novel Covers and I don't know which one is my fav. Possibly the one with the love triangle.

2. HAAHAHAHAHHAHHA. MY DECEMBER IS LIKE PERFORMANCE ART. I wish I hadn’t entries that broke it up, but there we go. I feel…like a young Mexican Chihuahua. Thanks, Gordon Cole.

3. SPEAKING OF GORDON COLE, THE GREAT TWIN PEAKS REWATCH DISCUSSION STARTS JANUARY 7TH. CHECK OUT wherepiesdie FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, COOP. WE WELCOME NEWBIES, TOO.

4. THE GUESSING POST AT twsecretsanta has links to all the fics posted so far.

5. laurab1 wrote me and Crue a little RPS for the holidays, involving Zaza trimming that red dress with white. Sort of. Dirty girl. Of course the dogs are there. Oh poor Scott. Santa Baby.

6. Kidlet has been given a Spiderman punching bag. I think she's out there trying to serve it tea. Or hump it. It's unclear.

7. I HAVE INVENTED A NEW WORD:

CONFLISTED: (adj) state of being when one asks one's friends list or twitter feed a question and receives many opposite suggestions or opinions on the matter.

1. So last night we're decorating the tree at my parents' house. My parents' cats have a track record for wrecking the tree, so this year we're just putting crap ornaments on it and hoping for the best. So mom is putting lights on and messing with branches and she distractedly says, "Next year we'll put some real ornaments on. Get some Ketamine and puts the cats down for a week."

Yeah. LOL

2. For all of you stateside who grew up with her, Olivia from Sesame Street has died of breast cancer. I loved Olivia and her rad braids.

3. Sometimes, SNL gets it right.

4. I can only conclude that the Jantoistas didn't like my meagre offering. SADFACE.

5. CARD ROLL CALL: kel_reiley, sivatheminty, miss_winterhill and lawsontl--thank you so very much! J, your squid is fucking awesome. You should do some TW comics. We can collab!

6. Okay, so Dexter season three is not available on netflix to watch instantly (someone write me Dexter Morgan/Hannibal Lecter mentor!fic. DO. IT.). In my desperation for a series to watch while I do shit, I remembered that I haven't finished The L Word, so I started season three. The L World, man, is horrible, but I can't stop watching it. It makes me cringe on the part of all women, and I'm trying to figure out why that is. But I think it starts with the lyrics to the theme song:

( The Way That We Live, by Betty )

7. AWWWWWW YEAH HAAHAHAHAA.

8. HEY! LATER TODAY! DRINKS POST! GET YOUR ALCOHOLIC RECIPES HANDY!

9. ALSO, RPS. WOOT!

10. AND A BODY, DEAD, WRAPPED IN PLASTIC.

11. IF SOMEONE MADE A TORCHWOOD VID TO THIS SONG, IT MIGHT TOP I'M A BOSS. MIGHT..

Later this month I have a post on what you all mean to me and something about the Grinch and his walnut heart and something about eggnog and Windex and it's curative properties. Then we all grill a lamb on the lawn. I might be getting fandom confused with My Big Fat Greek Wedding. ::shrug:: Whatever. I make you lamb.

I can't believe I actually have a list of lj-entry subjects.

You know what I want to see again? The Syrian Bride.

Who will slash ye noo? Comment 78: Methos and Duncan get a stanza.

1. I went to Terminus and saw so many people I couldn't name them all here, and plus I'm very lazy. So, hi peoples!

2. I have no friending policy. This journal, as far as entries, is either unlocked or privacy locked, so I don't get friending notifications or anything. If you friend this journal, you will see every entry I make without me doing anything. My other journal is flocked, and it's a boring life journal and has nothing to do with fandom. If you really want to find that one, it's not that hard, but I don't go out of my way to advertise it.

3. So. Here's the thing about me and fandom: I don't really care. I mean, I live fandom and I like writing fic. I may even read some, but it's not a big thing to me. I have friends that I made in fandom that have moved into RL friends, but that ceases to be a fandom thing. In fact, most of those friends have moved to other fandoms and we keep in contact anyway.

That being said, I don't have any interest in holding grudges. (Okay, I have three people I know/knew in fandom who I would prefer not to talk to. One is J-Blo, another is a person who I fought with because she didn't see slash, which now she exclusively writes, go figure, and another is someone I had a blow out with in RL) But really, I don't care about fandom feuds. Say I was a friend of person A, who was a friend of person B, and they have a falling out. Why would I be involved in that simply because I am friends with person A? More specifically, why would person C, who is a friend of person B, come to talk to me about Person A? When they have never spoken to me before? Or additionally, why would they talk to person D, who is a friend of mine about person A and person B's former relationship? If all of that was confusing, then you, like me, have either failed symbolic logic, or have never watched a soap opera.

People, I can't hold grudges for other people. I just. Don't. Care. Really. I don't have that much invested in fandom. I worry about feeding my kid, cleaning my house, finding a job and GETTING RID OF THE GODDAMN FLEAS IN MY HOUSE. So, if you want to talk to me, just do it. I'm cool with that.

4. While I'm on the record (I always do this, dammit), the reason I locked this down was because of some private wank that revolved around some fandom people I was thrown together with in a fest, and they made a point to go to my journal, which they do not have friended, and then went out of their way to read it and complain to the mods behind my back because I said I wanted to CUT BITCHES. Let me reiterate, now that the fest is over, CUT CUT CUT CUT. Like Mack the Knife. I guess I'm just pissed because I locked my journal. Why are things never cut and dried? Why does every situation have three different POVs and you can never just do what you want to do without hurting someone else's feelings? Hee.

5. I have been playing video games. Kingdom Hearts, actually. And one late night I stopped myself in the middle of a google search for Ansem/Leon/Cloud threesome fic. WTF is wrong with me? I have substituted by looking for Kyp Durron Star Wars slash. This thing I seek. It does not exist (except for a few sites whose fic did not leave me happy and squee). Also of note, writers: never refer to the penis as a pillar unless it's holding up a Greek temple or something.

6. I have seven fics and shrewreader's journal on the table, but the only one that's moving forward is somebody's Highlander Twin Peaks mashup that has the Log Lady and Methos. I keep walking around my house holding bottles of cooking oil and saying "THIS OIL LEADS TO A GATEWAY." The baby thinks I'm nuts. Actually, she just smiles and says, "okay!" I'm glad that I have taught her the proper troll response at such a young age.
