I love Joan Osborne. It's a guilty pleasure. Today's songs are from her Christmas album, "Christmas Means Love", which came out in 2007. The first, "Children Go Where I Send Thee", is a pretty faithful version of the traditional spiritual. The second is that most creepy of traditional carols, "The Cherry Tree Carol", aka the song wherein Joseph

Actually it was good, I think. We said stuff that needed saying, cleared the air as it were, and I think that's the first time either of us have ever said the words 'I love you' to each other, which is kind of sad, but you know how I am, and my sister is me times 100 when it comes to affection.

Motherhood has softened her a little on that score, and I've been really trying these past few years to get more emotionally connected to the people who love me, so. Yeah. Anyway, it's all good. We both feel terrible today (her more than me) like, physically, but it's probably worth it.

I just sent you an e-mail about glancing over something for me. I will probably also share this DIWWCF piece I'm working on when it's closer to done, because I'm worried about flow and silliness levels. It's the hard part! I am bad at the hard part.

Were you volunteering to beta the RPS? Because that doesn't really seem like your thing. I don't even know why I'm writing it; it's kind of ridic, tbh. I blame Mark Salling for being so hot and beautiful and loving his costars too much. And I blame Chris Colfer for being a special, perfect snowflake that the whole world wants to put in their pocket. The bastards.

Anyway, whatever you need me to look at, just let me know. You know where to find me. I'll be at my sister's for awhile later, brat-wrangling, and I have to chain myself to the sewing machine at some point, but other than that, I'm around.

Edited because I spell 'physically' wrong Every. Single. Time. I type it. Psychically: Not the same word!
