Coming a few days late, but OMG YULETIDE!

YOU GUYS! I am the luckiest fangirl in the world! Not only did I get two (yes, TWO!) gifts from my author, but I also got a Treat! Three Yuletide fics! It really is the season for miracles! So, reccing the hell out of them:

the improbability of perpetual motion: a No Ordinary Family fic. This is an

YOU'RE ALIVE!!!

We totally need to phone chat when you're up for it. I hope you're feeling well. We need a healthy NJ!

:huggles:

[normative_jean]

All evidence to the contrary, lol. I MISS YOU!!!!! Now that I've been dragged to the doctor and put on all sorts of medication, I will (finally) get better. And then, phone chat, ahoy! When does your school break end?

(Although, you know you're sick when the doctor looks at you with ACTUAL PITY and just says "...yeah, let's see what I've got on my shelf so you don't have to wait at the pharmacy.")

We will talk soon! *internet hugs, since those aren't contagious*

Oh man, I'm jealous!

Not that I'm not very happy with my one fic, but I've always wanted to get more than one just once. Just to know what it's like. And what it's like is apparently awesome.

[normative_jean]

Be jealous of me, lol! I'd be jealous of me. I mean, seriously! Three fics! And they're all so awesome! You never mentioned that Yuletide had the potential for so much awesome when you pimped it to me. :)

[empressearwig]

Haha, well I've never experienced this kind of awesome!

Have you gotten to do any other reading in the archive? I've been binging like someone on a three-day bender. I will need to stop soon or risk needing my stomach pumped.

And that is a terrible metaphor. Terrible.

[normative_jean]

I didn't even know you COULD get more than one fic. And I completely discounted the whole Treats thing. NJ is a very happy fangirl. *rolls around in fic loveliness*

You mean, have I poured over the entire archive, fandom by fandom, opening tab after tab until Firefox started making angry threats about closing down? You mean, do I have enough reading to occupy myself well through the new year? No, of course not, lol. I expect to get around to a recs list sometime next week, since I'm only up to the "E" fandoms (OMG someone wrote fix-it fic for Nathan Stark on Eureka! That is exactly what I needed in my life!)

It is indeed a terrible metaphor. But accurate. Which is both hilarious and sad.

ANGEL FACE CUPCAKE (and any other delectable treat)!!!!!!!!!

What a lucky girl you are, all those wonderful gifts! I hope the holidays have been treating you well. I remember how insanely busy your life gets around this time of the year. Did you go home for the holidays or stay in NYC?

Give me updates on your life, stat! I miss you mad amounts babe <3

[normative_jean]

My darling!!!!!

I freely admit to being the luckiest fangirl in the world because of it! How is Yuletide made of so much awesome? How does the internet not spontaneously combust from it all?

Well, mercifully, life is less busy this time of year when I'm not in school. Flip side is that I'm sick (which, sadly, is also usual for this time of year) and I continue the fruitless search for a job. So, you know, the awesomeness of Yuletide was kind of needed right now, lol.

How are you?!?!?! How is life? The friends? The job? Any and all boys in the picture??? It's been ages since we talked through any forum!
