GIP, squee, etc
Look at me, look at me! slodwick not only santa-hatted me, she gave me a sleigh to drive! eee! That red is just luscious.
Miscellany:
helenish has kind of destroyed me with Take Clothes Off As Directed (SGA). I'm still processing. It's fabulous, but also made me weirdly sad. But in a good way?
Miranda-IM: Finally, an instant-messenger client (it handles AIM, ICQ, MSN, Jabber (ie, LJTalk), and IRC) with a clean interface. One of the biggest issues for me with all the IM chat clients has been that any long/multi-user convo becomes impossible to follow because it all scrolls off too fast thanks to the emoticons, the "cool" fonts, the colors, the unnecessary whitespace, *grouch grouch grouch*. Anyway, this totally rocks. I'm still sticking with mIRC for irc for the moment because it's got more irc-specific features, but finally, something for IM I like as much.
In other news, I am chugging away towards a deadline and therefore will be pretty quiet for the foreseeable future, alas, despite the stack of half-finished fanfic stories that are calling my name. But all is going well!
*drives by jingling in new sleigh*
