*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, [livejournal.com profile] 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, [livejournal.com profile] tardis80 has been posting the most adorable things lately. NARWHALS. Mer!Rodney! BOYS! Also, [livejournal.com profile] countess7 has recorded podfics of [livejournal.com profile] 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

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 [livejournal.com profile] 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*

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

did you say cute?

Also, sleepy kitty:

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.

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!!!

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

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.

Um, delurking to post kitten spam (with a twist?). Hopefully cute/funny-making :)
Basement Cat attacks(Kitten is one up for adoption, living in the clinic I work; the sphynxes are clinic cats, adopted from shelter. Kitten tends to be called the Basement Kitten - I'm sure you understand why *grin*. A f-lister said the pic should be titled 'Gargoyle minions are not happy').

The rest are my pets ... or in case of cats, the ones that pwn me :)
And if that is not enough, there are assorted cats, dogs and horses (and wild strawberries) under here:)

Tiny, sleepy baby sloth, n'awwww! Sorry, can't out-cute that, but here's hoping you feel better soon!

You have a dog named Finn?



Who was named after whom?

Tired baby sloth! So adorable! *gently strokes his sleepy, sleepy head*

Here's a picture of one of my kitties, Ming. She's trying to catch a lizard on the other side of the window. Silly girl!

And a crazy eyed sloth. (At least, I'm pretty sure it's a sloth.) He's adorable in his own way!

You do know about the itty bitty kitty committee (http://ittybittykittycommittee.blogspot.com/), right?

Their photos make the world temporarily less harsh for me. I hope the fosterlings do the same for you :)
