I make toys but I've got aspirations

Today I spent four hours sitting on a train, listening to the girls (late teens/early twenties, I think?) dissecting their friendship in mind-numbing detail in the seat directly in front of me, and watching the snow blow by and thinking.

Snow has become, to me, just the latest of story devices I happen to experience. Snow is the threat in Blizzard

WORK ON YOUR YULETIDE, DAMN IT.

*pokes you with a stick*

(I like it when the numbers go up, for crying out loud. ENTERTAIN ME.)

[fox1013]

Well, YEAH. That is the most fun part of Yuletide once you are done with your story!

...*whimper*

[apocalypsos]

That, and looking out for fandoms you like. *nods solemnly*

*pokes you again*

I'd offer to beta, but knowing your likes and dislikes I doubt you have a fandom I know well enough to edit, so. *shrugs*

Wait, YOUR daughter has excellent taste? I am shocked. SHOCKED!

[hhertzof]

Work on your Yuletide fic!

My favorite snow stories are still Snowbound with Betsy and The Boxcar Children's Snowbound Mystery. But instead I am reading Bond novels in prep for a yuletide beta.

And snow is magic. I got half a day off work and I got to walk home in it. :) It was beautiful and sparkly (but not vampire sparkly).

[fox1013]

Oh, man, the Boxcar Children one. I SHOULD TOTALLY REREAD THAT. Hee.

[hhertzof]

YOU SHOULD.

So should I, but I'm rereading The Prisoner of Zenda for a Yuletide Beta.

[brooding_soul]

Snowbound is my favorite.

[fox1013]

I AGREE.

[fox1013]

Ugh, I love the cruise one too.

People who don't adore BSC Super Specials are just wrong.
