Merry Christmas!
My goodness, my neighborhood is so deserted! There've been maybe three cars going by since I got up at 8:30 this morning, and there are no lights in any of the windows across the street. And it's so quiet! I've never been alone on Christmas before, and it's kind of spooky and cool. (Seriously. When I was in Japan six years ago, I spent Christmas at this youth hostel somewhere in northern Nagano, and the hostess made me a cake. Like, an actual cake because it was Christmas and I was alone and by that point I'd given up trying to explain that not all Americans celebrate the holiday. It was a lovely, lovely thing for her to do. ♥ )
Anyway.
This year some lovely, lovely person wrote Eyes Whirling Bright for my for Yuletide! It's Pernfic and it's about Moreta, my favorite gold rider! It's about her early days at Fort Weyr and it's full of sweet, touching moments between rider and dragon and I love it to pieces.
And I'm kind of excited that Yuletide Madness isn't open for business yet, because it means I have more goodies to look forward to later in the day.
Wow, it's nearly noon and I'm still in my pajamas. I think I'm going to heat up some of the leftover Chinese food, get back into bed, and watch "A Christmas Story" on DVD. I'm feeling supremely lazy and it's not like there's anything to do, what with all the people in my neighborhood having vanished. I suppose most of them have gone to church and to relatives' houses, since I think many of them are students. Hmm.
Anyway, I hope you're all having a very lovely holiday!!
