Snow & Fic

Dec 11, 2008 16:33

It actually snowed here this morning! It's the first time there's been an accumulation of snow in my area of Louisiana since 1973, and it's only the third time in my life I've ever seen snow. It was less than an inch, but it was still exciting.

On a totally unrelated note, this weekend is the big qafchristmas posting spree where people will be posting ( Read more... )

Wow. Louisiana finally rated newsworthy, and it wasn't something about another one of our politicians being chucked in prison. LOL!

Arizona's a pretty state. We drove through there a few times back when the family lived in southern California. I remember loads of miles of nothing but cacti and no pit stops. There was no grass at those few stopping places either so our dogs were totally confused and refused to pee. LOL!

I am so excited about seeing your new fic!

You've probably had more snow than we have. LOL

It's an epistolary style. Fluffy too. :P

We got more snow than you?

*blinks*

But it's way colder up there.

I got to make a snow man. He was three inches tall and took a lot of the snow on the snow on the driveway to make. It was awesome.

We've only had about 1 1/2 inches of snow so far. It's so bizarre.

Right now we're having nasty freezing rain.

A Fluffy Fic -- I'm in heaven!!!!!!!

You were the first person I thought of when I saw Louisiana got snow. I hope you had a chance to go out in play in it. I would be willing to send my weather your way as we have had 4 snow storms and 3 ice storms already this season. More snow tonight and Sunday and it is not even winter yet.

I am working on QAF crack fiction for the big weekend at qafchristmas. I look forward to reading and enjoying all the fun.

I didn't realize us getting snow was newsworthy to anyone outside of the state. Must have been a slow day in news-land. LOL!

And, IMO, if we did get any of those snow storms, it would utterly and completely confuse the lot of us down here because we don't have a clue how to handle snow.

Torrential rain, yes. Hurricanes, yes, but you send a bunch of snow down here? After that 'Hot Dawg It's Snowin' parties were over people would be like O_o and then try to shovel the roads and walkways by lighting them on fire because alcohol + laziness + teh stoopid = Darwin Awards in the making, yo.

Crack fiction? Like fluffy fic, cliche fic, or slave_o_spike's ass!baby fic?

My BFF moved to Texas after college and the first snow storm she had there she drove to work. She was the only one there because hey they had an inch of snow didn't she know that meant a snow day. Lol After all the accidents we have had the last week because of ice storms I would say most of us don't know how to drive on ice either.:D

I guess it is fluffy because it deals with Brian having to defend Rudolph the red nosed reindeer from the gay and lesbian centers boycott. It seems Tannis thinks that it is anti gay because they wouldn't let Rudolph play any reindeer games.

LOL @ your friend's experience. That's about right for here in the South. We're not really phased by much, but snow's one of those WTF kinda things.

Tannis thinks that it is anti gay
Well, yes, but Rudolph also let his 'flame' burn bright so he could guide Santa's sleigh. :P
