christmas stuff! and cards! (not mine) and other things!
1. Merry Christmas everyone! ♥ I hope you're all having an amazing day and that your presents were plentiful. ;)
2. As for me, I'm currently at my grandparents' on my dad's side, which means that I have sporadical internet access. On the good side, apparently my little cousins grew tired of the Christmas singing. Which is good. (On the I-don't-know-what-to-make-of-it, the eldest is apparently putting into practice some perpetual sulking that would make Jon Snow proud, which I'm pretty sure isn't allowed when you're *ten* and your name is not Jon Snow.)
3. Also, Christmas cards! Thanks so very much for the Christmas cards to: itsjustc (thank you! <3), vella_amor_dm (we should totes be more on LJ *nods* also that was some seriously lovely card, thanks!), twisting_vine_x (aw that card was adorable, thanks!), elliotsmelliot (that owl on the card is so beautiful <3 thank you!), haldoor (wow, that was a gorgeous card - how do you even make them? I loved all the glitter xD ♥) and jaydblu (that was a very shiny card, thanks! ;) )!
Also, random question: do Canadian posts send all letters during Christmas time with the 'SANTA HOHOHO PERE NOEL' thing printed on the top? I hadn't noticed it previously but it's kind of awesome.
Also, I'm working on mine but with everything going down this month I didn't manage to finish them yet, so they'll probably be.. New Year's. Well. You'll probably get them after New Year's, but they *are* coming. /o\
4. Have some entertainment thanks to my Buffy obsessed uncle. Yesterday, this conversation happened.
Him: 'you know, there's this whole debate about who should Buffy end up with in the community. There are people who are for Bangel, that'd be Buffy/Angel, and then there are the ones for Spuffy, which would be Spike/Buffy...'
Me: 'Okay, yeah, sure.' What I was really thinking: holy crap IS MY UNCLE USING PROPER SHIPNAMES WHAT IS THIS, IS THIS REAL LIFE?'
Him: 'then of course it's obvious that Angel and Spike had history together - you know, between centuries-old vampires...'
Me: 'that seems logical.' What I was really thinking: IF HE TELLS ME RIGHT NOW THAT HE READS SPIKE/ANGEL FANFIC I'LL PROBABLY LAUGH UNTIL I CRY.
A short while later, after I say something like 'seriously is this still a thing' when my cousin starts drooling over a Dragon-Ball videogame:
Him: 'well, do you know who played Junior in the live action movie?'
Me: 'James Marsters? Wait a moment, did you actually watch that thing?'
Him: 'I might be a Spuffy, but I don't watch every piece of crap James Marsters stars in.'
I don't know how I kept the laughing fit from happening. Seriously, if he ever starts watching something that I watch as well it's going to be fucking hilarious. (Meaning: if he ever comes up to me being like 'I ship destiel Dean/Cas' I'll most probably never recover.) Also he bought me Boardwalk Empire dvds. Did I ever say that it's awesome to have someone in the family who actually gets what you're talking about when you talk tv shows? (Oh, and I have the first three seasons of Breaking Bad too, but with the way things are I'll probably watch them after my finals - sigh.)
5. And after leaving you with this hilarious exchange to spice up your Christmas day, I'll go a) commenting on my oh-so-very-perfect-and-marvelous-Yuletide-gift (it's Kavalier and Clay and it's Sam/Tracy and it's FLAWLESS. I'D READ IT IF I WERE YOU). Aaand I hope you're all having a marvelous day again <3 (the next time I post I'll have hopefully finished with the cards, at least..)
