Today started off crabby (well, no, it didn't, but I went for my walk and got BLOWN OVER by the wind, and Emily started to cry and I had two miles left. BAH!) and in a way that was a good thing because I'm working on my Connor fic (S3-early4 Connor: he's wound a bit tight) so grumpy is good, BUT. I got something LOVELY in the mail today!!
hellziggy sent me a CD as a thank you for the CD I made her last winter, but hers is SO MUCH better than mine was!! And accompanying the CD?
And a Pressed Fairie™ card that shall be iconized because I heart me some Pressed Fairies™.
And I had a delicious veggie sammich on 7 grain bread, and I'm baking a lemon cake with lemon curd filling and and and... WHEEEE!! Today is lovely! Buds, blooms, froggie socks! I took some pics of my Japanese maple (the weeping variety) and my fantastic orange rose (species unknown: double bloom, Grandiflora, will post pics when I get them) that has One Perfect Bloom right now, and many more to follow.
If you were having a bad day before, stop it. Come by and I'll give you a slice of lemon cake and a cup of Joe.
And Sue likes my Crusilla fic so far and said it was "elegant and creepy" and I didn't have to pay her to say it this time! Hopefully that will go up later tonight... "It's a fine day, people are happy..."

Froggie socks are awesome. And Spock agrees, you can see it in his face.
I, too, would like to know what a froogie is. Fraggle? Check. Froggie? Yup. Fruggin'? Kinda. Aaaannnd there's the timer for the cake.
OMG, Samara is fucking evil and she is going to fuck you UP.
Why can't hot men climb out of my TV?
I'm listening to one of the only country songs I can stand: Dixie Chicken, Garth Brooks. Because I kinda really hate country. Shhh.
SG socks!! OMG, how awesome. You are a super hero!!
it is a PRETTY day here, but ridiculously windy. and now I must go to class. Will be happy AFTER class, when it's still light!
Dude, pushing the joggin stroller in that was like pushing a sail boat up a mud-bottomed swamp. With wind.
Yrs, posting from the HQ of the SHUES [Society for the Hedonistically Undisciplined, Especially in Spring] --- pat
Hooray for slash! ANything I'd wanna read? Please feel free to link...
My bad day is only because of stress of my own making. I´m teaching a new class this weekend and still don´t have everything ready.
Now, I´m looking at my new icon. The pic was from Sue and my 10th anniversary party three years ago.
Thought it might cheer others up as well as your happy post.
Is now in a good mood!
Thanks.
I have a thing to send you soon (I'm finishing it like today or tomorrow, really) but I can't find your address. Send it my way please.
So much latency in me... I'm emailing you NOW.
Lemon Curd!! Delish. So happy today...
Dude, will the wind never quit? We're Texans, this ain't Chi-Town!
"Windy City" I will never fucking live there. Chicago is AWESOME. But: windy city. Nope. Laura hates the goddamned wind.
But! Frog socks and lemon cake! (wanna be my beta for the Dru fic? no one knows her like you)
Fortunately I've cared for the beds, so the tops of my plants may be beaten down, but the roots are healthy.
*keeps chin up, tries to not notice the tremors*
Be sure to take pics of your Jmaple early in the morning after it leafs out. I wanna see those vibrant colors!
And your Ring icon is freakin' me out, man. I keep meaning to drag out my Ringu DVD when I have time and make some animated icons from that. Did you ever end up checking out Audition? I was deeply traumatized by that one. Starts out cheesy yet slightly uneasy-making romantic comedy atmosphere, turns freaky and gory and surreal. My favorite Japanese movie ever is the one this icon is from - Dark Water. Same director as Ringu. The haunting in it is just more crap that the poor divorced mom has to go through to try to support and protect her little girl.
I emailed Sue a pick of her eye in closeup and she's mad at me now. Heh heh.
And for Easy Bake Ovens: line the Easy Bake brownie tin (shut up. I have a 7 year old = I have an Easy Bake Oven) with puff pastry (peppridge farm makes some fer cheap) and fill it with lemon curd. Push it through, brown it = lemon tart for one!
Did you like Ju-On, or The Grudge?
Couldn't resist the socks. One should never mention a need of fun socks too close to the girl who owns NO white socks! I don't have any two pairs of socks that are the same as another. :)
Fun socks - they're a priority in my life. :-)
O_O
No slash, it's Connor and Drusilla. Hopefully it won't make you laugh, sicko. Then again, did you read the "Let Go and Let Joss" fic I wrote where she's crazy but it's funny and she's in therapy?
Beasties! I forgot to comment on how much I love you for always catching up with me on any BB reference. "I reached in the Miller cooler/grabbed a cool Bud. "
*mentally steals cake*
*gorges self*
FUCKING YUM, Heather!
