Mystery! Excitement! Bears!

So. Yes. My lovely exciting new job? Didn't work out. I've already talked a lot about it on twitter and I'm not sure I want to go into it again but. Yeah. It sucks and it makes me sad to think about how frickin' happy and hopeful I was.

But, as ever, my internet family are being amazing. I am, according to the notes attached to the various cards, notes, pictures and postcards I've received "in the process of getting a group hug from the internet. If it doesn't make sense yet, stand by."



YOU GUYS FOR SERIOUS I CANNOT EVEN. They are all so beautiful and HANDMADE and wonderful, oh my god. Thank you so, so much *takes a breath* [livejournal.com profile] vandulocity  [livejournal.com profile] kaiserkuchen [livejournal.com profile] miabee023  [livejournal.com profile] sarkysnarky  [livejournal.com profile] khasael [livejournal.com profile] pigrescuer  [livejournal.com profile] branquignole  [livejournal.com profile] hanelissar  [livejournal.com profile] moogle62 [livejournal.com profile] playwithfyr  and the rest to come. I have never been so sad that there's no post on Sundays. I don't know who the mastermind(s) behind the project but oh my god, thank you and I like how it looks like you are quoting me. I love it when you quote me! #mystery #excitement #bears

In other excellent news the fic that I produced for [livejournal.com profile] pod_together  with the fabulous [livejournal.com profile] nielrian  is up on the AO3! Hurray! It is a Kurt/Blaine summer job fluff extravaganza called Haven't Let You Out Since I Let You In and you can all see what I meant when I said my sunburn was karma. And also experience the wonder that is N's reading, her Kurt voice is so perfect, y'all, I cannot even. PERFECT. I have listened to her say "cliché" over and over. I should probably post it places to be completist but I am so laaaaazy today.

Also I saw Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows P2 at the midnight showing and it was very satisfying and upsetting and I JUST HAVE A LOT OF FEELINGS ABOUT HARRY POTTER. It really makes me want to write HP fic again. Maybe we should have "Fandom Will Always Be There To Welcome You Home" fic writing, reading, reccing fest or something.

So, yes, this is mostly an entry of things that I will have more to say about later. Whatever. It's like, 2am here and I need to have achieved something today apart from finally convincing my boyfriend to just download the first season of the West Wing so that we can watch it. He's been holding out for buying the DVDs for <i>years</i>. We are late to the party, sure, but oh, what a party!

I'm still really really sorry the job didn't work out. ): HAVE ALL OF THE HUGS, LAL. ♥ I'm sure you're going to find an awesome job that is wonderfully suited to you in no time at all; you are very fabulous! All of these cards look very fabulous also! I'm sorry mine looks a little shabby, I was working with limited resources due to my being on holiday. xD (Don't know who I'm trying to kid though, my artistic talent is zero, haha.) But it was a very fun project with very fun people, and it's so exciting to see it all come together!

Harry Potter. ;___; I haven't seen DH2 yet, but I shall go see it on Saturday, and I- I'm really not sure I'll be able to take all of the feelings and I will probably be reduced to a sobbing mess. I HOPE THE INTERNET WILL BE THERE TO HOLD ME WHEN I GET BACK.

ILU. ♥

Oh, thank you my dearest Bran. I love your card, shush! It is very creative, but I mostly enjoyed your lovely metaphor on the back. You know me and metaphors. It is the most exciting. I mean, getting post is exciting by itself and now there is added mystery and awesome and delight.

Also Isi sent her card with the disclaimer of "with more love than artistic ability" *g*

YES WE WILL ALL OF THE HOLDING.
