*le sigh*

I'm in kind of a weird place right now. Despite having a pretty sane second half of the semester, I've been mortally exhausted all the time; the hormone levels are not right, according to my doctor, and so it's the endocrinologist's for me after Christmas break. Like so much this year, it's good news mixed with the stupid/lame/not good: I'm 99% sure the depression has not returned--it doesn't have the same feel (I'm just chronically so fucking tired)--but that means it's Something Else instead. Lovely. Also, sga_santa is kicking my ass. One day to go and the Writer Demon is poking at me, going, This is weird, it's too crack-like, the person will be publicly "yay!" and privately "seriously, what the hell is this shit?" You might as well start over, and my brain is paralyzed.

On the bright side, tardis80 has been posting the most adorable things lately. NARWHALS. Mer!Rodney! BOYS! Also, countess7 has recorded podfics of apple_pi's Thursday porn and my followup to it, and you can listen to filthy dirty boys here.

And Finn has been climbing in bed with me lately, because thick-coated Canadian dogs can never be cuddled enough. He curls up against my legs, uncomplicated and warm and smelling of fur, and sleeps.

If there is anything happy to say or cute to show, I would love to see it ♥ I will start:



BABY SLOTH

Not only a baby sloth, but a tired baby sloth! EEEE!!

::as for the blues, here are large hugs and dreams of statues turned real called John::

Hey bebeh. Here are some cute pictures to make you happy, if I can ever figure out how to embed them. It is not looking good. ...okay, epic fail. Feel free to click through! Someday I will figure out how to put pics in w/o hotlinking. Maybe.

i has an elivater (http://pics.livejournal.com/omglawdork/pic/0000t0zr)

fantastic hair is also an excellent disguise (http://pics.livejournal.com/omglawdork/pic/0000wed2)

Eeeeee, cowls!!! *bundles you up!*

[aesc.livejournal.com]

*falls over from the cute!* Look at that face! And the EAR! And the SNOW!

[aesc.livejournal.com]

Baby sloths really are adorable. Look at him, holding onto his towel!

Mmmm, statue!John.... *le sigh* You know my icon is what he'd look like while trying to figure out Rodney's PlayStation.

[aesc.livejournal.com]

Oh, Jason :D :D :D

And doing the image-imbedding, is easy! The code is just:

[img src="the url of the image"], except replacing the square brackets with < > (as you would in a link) ♥

namecheck w00t!

that was some QUALITY filth you wrote, btw. SRSLY.

happymaking and cute:








here, have a cupcake! its red velvet!

And Rodney's giving all sorts of explanations that are not helpful at all. Not at all. Partially because he's distracted by the play of John's muscles in his back, because he goes around shirtless a lot and even though he - (his mind skitters away from I made it that way, because still, his life is not a greek myth, not not not) though he knows every single inch of that back, still. It's so different watching that back move and he has to smack himself sometimes, because it's really rude and not very attractive to visibly drool.

RED VELVET CAKE.

It's been ages since I've had that. No wonder I'm tired :D

*noms on it while petting baby panda*

And then John figures it out, and manages to negotiate his soldier past the first landmine without getting him blown up and he lights up and grins triumphantly at Rodney, and Rodney is... Rodney is very, very fucked, Rodney decides bleakly.

[beadattitude.livejournal.com]

He wanders into the bathroom to stare at himself in the mirror to see if the crazy is actually visible or if a neon sign proclaiming it has manifested (hey he has a living statue on his sofa) and is flashing above his head. It's not, but he nevertheless snags a t-shirt on his way back to the living room and offers it to John.

"Not cold," John says absently, then stops and shoots Rodney a grateful look. "Thanks, though."

Rodney fixes himself a bowl of Cheerios and eats it, sagging and disconsolate, on the sofa next to John, resigning himself to an evening of staggering beauty, warm and close and watching things - his life and pixelated bad guys - blow up.

I was scrolling through ?friendsfriends and the CUTE of the baby sloth ambushed me and made me fall into this comment.

the person will be publicly "yay!" and privately "seriously, what the hell is this shit?" You might as well start over, and my brain is paralyzed.
It's possible that this statement made my day all over again - I haven't been able to write a word of my sga_santa in 48 hours for sheer panic. I hope it doesn't make me a bad person that I found the fact that I am not alone comforting...

*offers cute icon as thank you*

[serialkarma.livejournal.com]

"Cute" is not the word I'd use, but this site is definitely hilarious. (http://tackyweddings.com/)

did you say cute?

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Now THAT's pretty darn cute, IMHO. *g*

Also, sleepy kitty:

[hilarytamar.livejournal.com]

No photographic cuteness to share, I'm afraid, but do have an icon: she's wearing a cat bed on her head. (No, really, I promise. It's from a Target ad from years ago.)

And there's this snail (http://mfrost.typepad.com/cute_overload/2005/12/snailio_flipboo.html), which never fails to make me happy.

[cathalin.livejournal.com]

Trust me, you are not alone.

*clings in santa-induced stress*

eta: I should clarify -- I'm actually relatively happy with my fic, except for the HUGE GAPING HOLES that I'm filling today. *headdesk*

editing again (lol, no, I'm not stressed AT ALL) to say, seriously, this exchange is a boon to the fandom and to fans. Whatever it is, whoever it's for, they will love it, are you serious?!?! You always write *wonderful* things!!!

[tropes.livejournal.com]

Ugh I just asked for an extension on sga santa. No time, no time, no tiiiiiiiiiime and no regular internet access.

[anatsuno.livejournal.com]

I think you have outcuted every thing with that baby sloth. omg. I am staring so bad.

*pets you*

I will return after my workout to post moar cute at you, though! I need to upload it first is all.

[bmouse.livejournal.com]

Hurrah on it not being depression! Perhaps more sleep when you can get it and a quick morning exercise routine to get the blood flowing? Lord knows I've got better things to do in the morning than run right into the loving arms of my comp. As for happiness....http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article2012789.ece
Baby elephants! Also if you know Merlin at all I've no end of lovely fic I could rec you.

[aesc.livejournal.com]

WHAT could be cuter than a baby sloth??? LOOK AT IT CLINGING TO ITS TOWEL!!!!

[aesc.livejournal.com]

I reaaaally don't want to ask for an extension because I know intellectually this is just my brain being dumb and all I need to do is keep it from being so dumb that I can't finish. Besides, even if I did start something new, the evil voice would tell me, oh man was THAT a mistake... just finish the stupid first story because there's no way on god's green earth you're going to be able to start and finish a third one in time.

Grah.

[aesc.livejournal.com]

Oh goodness, that is one very very determined snail :D

Streeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetch!

[aesc.livejournal.com]

Oh man, I don't know where to begin with the tacky and awful. The 16-year-old bride with her prostitute wedding party was pretty well beyond all description in my power.
