I'm glad you had a nice Christmas.

Gah - my heart is still broken from the Merlin finale. It certainly doesn't feel like a year. Still - as heart breaking as it was, it was a fitting ending to the show.

Thanks.

I know there were some who saw the ending coming and that, as much as it hurt, they were okay with it, which is cool. But for me, I never thought the ending fit with the show that I'd watched over the years or that it was earned.

*hugs* I am definitely polite. Sometimes it doesn't seem to be enough. Like, I apparently have one of those face where unless I'm smiling I look like I want to murder someone. So people constantly ask me what's wrong or to smile and apparently it's not a real smile unless teeth are involved.

I was hoping LA might become a Christmas tradition, but probably not.

Sounds like things are going well, even if it does feel like a bit of a grind right now. Nic was out of town last Christmas, so I watched the Merlin finale on Christmas Eve at home alone, and I was WAILING. I don't think I've ever cried so loudly in my life. It was great/awful.

You're a masochist. :) The only time I've watched the season 5 finale was a few months after it aired for research for fest story I was working. I didn't watch the whole thing and only up until Arthur said thank you. I'll probably be able to watch the whole thing someday, but not yet.

*hug* You'd be a saint if you didn't have a bad eating day or two! But like you said, you're mostly sticking to your plans, so it's nothing to stress over.

Surprise presents are the best, aren't they? :D

*hugs back* Yeah, I'm going to try not to freak out over a bad day or two.

They are. :)

I'm glad that you enjoyed Christmas (and that my card made it to you!)

I'm still not over the Merlin finale (fucking twats of the BBC and the 2 J's ruining Christmas) and haven't watched season 5 at all since it aired last year. My brother, charming man that he is, also decided to remind me about how I cried, proper ugly sobbing, and squished the cat as he checked that I knew they were fictional characters....

I haven't watched much of season 5 either, except for The Death Song of Uther Pendragon.

Aww, you squished the cat. But lol at your evil brother. I think that's why I didn't watch the finale with Mike. I don't know if he would have made fun of me, but I'm not sure he would have got my extreme sadness.
