I know that it's already been said ad nauseum today, but Merry Christmas to all! *throws confetti and hands out mistletoe--use it wisely, aka for slashy motives!*
I can't express my love and gratitude to every single one of you. Discovering LJ and footie simultaneously this year was probably the best thing that happened to me in a long, long time. I've got all these friends and fellow fangirls and really, I don't know what I'd do without y'all. I hope that you all have a happy holiday season (with lots of free time for comment spamming of course) and long may the slash live!
A bit of RL news now:
Christmas was a rather upbeat affair at my house this year. I might have stayed up a bit too late last night and was ready to muder my brother and sister for waking me up at 8 AM. They said that they couldn't open their gifts until everybody was up, so yeah, being the responsible big sister I am *snorts* I got up and helped them unwrap their presents. Then went back to sleep, lol.
I got a box of chocolates from my family and a gift certificate from a family friend. But Tudi, oh darling irritating Tudi, got me the best presents. (Yes, presents, plural!)
HE GOT ME A BOX FULL OF MILAN MERCHANDISE!!!!
I got a baseball cap, a keychain, a flag/poster and one of those darling little pillows shaped like a footie jersey, more specifically #22!!!!!! The pillow is LOVE LOVE LOVE. I want all of them, the whole rossoneri squad. I mean, I can actually go to sleep now cuddling a fluffy replicate of Ricky's jersey!!!
It's so red. So Italian. *squees*
The sad thing is that I don't even have a key to put it on this beautiful keychain!
Sadly, pics of the pillow are impossible to find. *pouts and cuddles the pillow* Don't worry, Pillow, soon I'll get a camera to work and we'll take a gazillion pictures of you. *pets it* My family is so not getting my enthusiasm and obsession over sport, even less an Italian soccer team. If only they knew the extend of my err...enthusiasm!
Yes, Tudi deserves a thousand props for this. If almost makes up for him being annoying and aggravating the rest of the time! *hugs him---I wonder if he'll see this, lol*
I sent out an inbox-full of ecards last night, I hope that everybody got them. (Yahoo does funny things to me sometimes.) But these following people had no emails listed on their userinfo page, so
hloke petiteplume19 stylistixs robtengel I wish you an wonderful Christmas and a happy New Year, full of footie, footie slash and hot men.
Finally, this brings me to my cheerful holiday mood and my desire to give prezzies to every single one of you. Now, I can't make graphics for my life and I have zero fanfic writing experience, but I can do is picspam, so please, I'd like to offer every person on my f-list a personalized picspam of their choice. Comment below for who you want and any other specifics! (By picspam I mean a minimum of 30-35 pics, but I can't guarantee that they'll all be un-watermarked or new to you.) I'll try to get them all done by New Year. And don't be afraid to be specific with your request! If you tell me that you want a picspam about Canna's Bubble Bum, then I'll try my very best to fulfill your wish!
Happy holidays f-list!
Oh, and picspams coming up later. I swear that they're trying to kill us...8 matches of interest on Dec. 23rd and just as many on the 20th!
Lots of love, hugs and kisses,
Betsy.
