Aww, group hug time! lunachickk, I got your adorable letter, thank youuu. Consider yourself and the furry family hugged tight. And thank you for my card, court1429, so sweet of you. And for the wonderful gifts, colorthenight, seanmegansean, pixiebullets, kitsune_me, friday82, buzziecat and tethys_1684! Every single one made me warm and purr, like taking a bath in hot chocolate, mmmm. I heart you one and all. ♥♥♥

So, life hard. Then I come back to this:


*flails* Who knew Galeface doing two seconds of speaking in a German DH promo could make me so happy? I mean, really. LOOK AT THAT FACE. I'm not sure who originally put that clip up, but I owe you a make-out session. With tongue.

And as if that wasn't already great enough, ( we got Galefacevoice on Desperate Housewives, 511. )

etharei, my little ad exec, I got your card today! Thankyouthankyou! Made me get this goofy grin on my face and hug it to my boobies. I heart you so much, girl, you know that, right? ♥

( And then I sat down with some hot chocolate and chocolate chip cookies and watched me some ATWT. )

I don't care how many times you rip my magazines or send my mail to the horny neighbors, Mr. Mailman. I know that deep down, you like me. Cos I got your sweet card, Gioface! One day we will open our penis-shaped cookie bakery and live above it in a loft that looks just like Brian's and be together all the time, don't you worry. Cos I love you. And cookies. And penises. But you, most of all. Merry early cmas, wife! :X :X :X

Speaking of mailboxes, mine is stuffed with Gale alerts. There was a couple E! articles on him, but if you don't want to bother with reading 'em, allow me to use these handy-dandy lj-cuts to sum up.

( GALE'S TOTALLY NOT COMING BACK TO DH Y'ALL. )

( SHUT UP FOOL, HE'S FINE LIKE WHOA. )

Considering we just had Gale himself say he'd be back + report that he'd already done a voiceover + Scott's "miraculous" healing quote + Marc Cherry repeatedly saying he's keeping Gale's job open for him, I'm mostly *waves dismissing hand* about it all.

Though the "tremendous amount of pain" thing has me sadfacing. Hopefully the medical ganja is helping there, heh, assuming it's true. No doubt the recent cold weather here isn't feeling real good to the shoulder. That sucker has to ache. But it didn't keep him from the theatre or a little work on set, so that's gotta be good news. Right? Right. *firm nod*

Hey, Luke was on ATWT yesterday ( and you'll never guess what happened! )

LJ fixed the glitch with my pinkless links, yay! ...and now my post titles are non-bolded links. Keeping me on my toes, LJ, keeping me on my toes.

It's 2008. Whatev. :|

BUT I GOT MAIL AND V-GIFTS SO I AM HAPPY LIKE A MANSLUT AT B. KINNEY'S LOFT FOR THE FIRST TIME. \:D/

Oh, Wife, I am all squishy inside and I totally blame your sweet card. And, well, I just wanted you to know that I love you and I'll be here waiting when you get back. *throat kiss* ♥, lunachickk (DOGGIES AND KITTY!!! I so wanna roll around the floor with 'em, hee. *skritches their bellies* Also, my v. first kitty when I was 5yrs old looked EXACTLY like yours. That made me all :D.), court1429 (Aw, hon, I wish you all the best this year! Though I won't say how long it took me to match all the squares. :"> I ♥ you!) and pixiebullets (Sparkley glasses adlfajs! I tried taking my clothes off in public, but someone paid me $20 bucks to put them back on. :/ Happy (Belated) New Year to you, babe! *squishes*)

THANK YOU ALL!! ♥

And now, icons! Big version is here.

01. 03. 07.

( seven more )

I wish all cocks tasted like delicious peppermint. ;)
And I owe it all to my2cats, OMG THANK YOU, HON!!!! Believe me when I say I could not put my lollycock down aldkfaj. I even nibbled the right one extra special in Brian's honor. Fake ball, schmake ball. Tastes the same to me! ;)

But wait! There's more!

( cos, look! )

And there are cards and virtual gifts and e-cards and I'm so warm and glowy and feelin' the love and I just want to hug you all!

sanami276 (Here's to another year o' couch luvin', hottie!), seanmegansean (Oh, sugarpants, YOU make it fabulous! *"i luv you" emoticon icon*), dreamingkitty (Hot chocolate luv!!! Gale and I promise to share with you, that's how much I adore you. ♥), jenepherre (THAT SNOWFIGHT CARD KILLED ME KTHX, you're so brill!), etharei (And pretty men to you, too! ♥), friday82 (Merry Holidays to youuuu!), galesweetie (Happy Holidays right back atcha!), reizaine (Hoops & Yoyo!!! I totally kept putting my cursor over the 'ry' part to make 'em sing it cos it sounds like "Ree" aldfja. They make me so retardedly happy. ;D Also, I was so tickled to hear from you! Your name being all bolded scared me. Tell me you are coming back!)

• Yeah, unplanned working vacations suck. If you're the nanny, they're all work and no vacation. WHAT'S UP WITH THAT. :| So, been trying to catch up and let me just warn ya, flist: From me much spam in your future I see. /Yoda

• LJ seems to have suddenly delivered a ton of old comments while I was gone. Like, from as far back as June. June, people! I... don't even know what I was talking about anymore in some of these aldka. Anyway, if you start getting super old replies from me, you'll know why!

• Best part of being away? ( Coming home to snail mail from my lovelies! )

• OWEN. :((

• "Other Men’s Sons" [by Michael Rowe] is a series of essays that have thoughtfully been divided into three interlacing entities: Mosaics, Portraits and Portfolios. [...] "Portraits", the second category, is a collection of profiles. Clive Barker, Phillip Ing, Peter Paige, Gale Harold and Drew Harris share an equal amount of time with Angie Moneva... Aroo? *cocks head* This could be hella interesting. Assuming it's not just a reprint of the Advocate interview he did with Gale back in '02. I heart that one.

( whole advocate article )

• Waiting tables to support himself, he studied, he says, “to the exclusion of everything else, for a solid year and a half.”

Y'know, the visual of Gale as my waiter is making my night right now. I've read this article numerous times, but no idea why I've never zeroed in on that detail before aldfjas. BECAUSE NOW AM PICTURING HIM IN THE TGIF OUTFIT WITH ALL THE FUNNY BUTTONS ALDJFASLK.

( welcome to TGIF )

OMG sanami276, ALDKFJASLKDFJASLKFDJA!!!!!1


OMG YOU SENT ME A GUMMY COCK ORGY AND I ♥ YOU OKAY
I started soon as I opened it. And your handwriting is JUST like I thought it would be! All curvy and artistic and fun just like you. Everything you wrote - you know I feel the same about you, right? Cos I do, big time. ♥ Of course, it took me awhile to realize there was even writing inside because the card itself was so fucking gorgeous alkdfjasd. Seriously, I had to flatten and scan it -- not only to make it MY NEW WALLPAPER OMG -- but also to brag about your talent. Girl, you're an artiste like Justin. But I already knew this. ;)

( ooooh and awww with me, people )

And as if this wasn't enough to give me a happy sugar high, my twin moose74 sent me my v. own copy of Gale's DW eps. MFACE, I &hearts you! And I miss you like whoa.

THANK YOU, GIRLS!

And I mean every letter of that incoherentness!

Because, hello, my boo wrote me so-perfect-I-could-cry Brian and Gus fic for my b-day. BRIAN AND GUS, PEOPLES! She so knows my weaknesses.

You must go read rightthisminute. It's so damned good, y'know? Go on, go find out! Here, I will lure you in with the beginning...

Brian gives him a photograph for his seventh birthday.

Wrapped in elegant black paper, topped with a simple white bow, he gives it to Gus with a lop-sided smile and a soft "open this."

*wibble*

And because clearly my biggest fic wishes are being granted to me today, there are two new chapters (7/8) of A Thousand Beautiful Things up. *♥ x's infinity*

( spoilers for chapter 8 )

( 1000 beautiful things song links/lyrics )

And last but DEFINITELY NOT LEAST, I've got mail!

( cut for much squeeage and excessive LYM lovin' )

I all of you this much.

Dear....

cabbers: Life would not be the same without you, Snookums! You are most brill artist like Justin. Don't think your card art escaped my notice. And for the record, Gale is in that package. I do wish you had drawn air holes, however.

juteux: Sunshine Sunshine Sunshine Sunshine Sunshine!!!

lucie_inthesky: Oh, Lucieface, all we need is us some ganja and Gale and naughty words and the world would be a better place. And how did I not know you were crafty?! AND THEN CRAFTY WITH B/J PORN ALFKJLAS. Also, there is something v. v. poetic about Brian being suspended from a long red stick that you lick and curls up at the end. You are brill, kthx.

marishna: *hug from tard!Ree to tard!Mari* aldkafjs. Always remember, YM stalking is shy love and I go like this "ALKDJAFSLDKJOMGYAY" even when we just talk about talking. Also, now I am forever going to wonder if Canadian mailed cookies taste different. Also also, for a moment, I thought the picture on the stamp was a banana -- and thought, "Dude, if that is not mostest appropriate stamp for only child brain twin tard persons, I do not know what aldkjfa." Y'know, cos we are b-a-n-a-n-a-s (like the Gwen Stephani song), not to mention they are shaped like cocks and we know cocks, yo. And then I realized it was a yellow lily. But it will always be a banana to me.

mcfeste: Aw, it really did happen that fast, didn't it? I just know that one day we found each other and I wanted to braid your hair and spend the night in sleeping bags watching B/J sad walks. *warm and fuzzy* And I promise that when we do meet and sing to each other "getting to know you...", you won't have to sleep with a knife under your pillow. I am criminal recordless. Think of me as the anti-Ted in that respect.

paddies: OMG MY MAIL TYPE PERSON LEFT ME A NOTE THAT I HAVE A PACKAGE THEY ARE HOLDING HOSTAGE AT THE POST OFFICE THAT I MUST GO AND GET THIS WEEKEND. UM, AM PEE IN PANTS EXCITED NOW. :D :D :D

shape5: It's official: You are the sweetest Bridezilla ever. Also, all cards should have wet B/J on the front from now on. I stared at it for a v. v. long time -- and took perverse pleasure in the fact that the card itself was textured and it felt like I was rubbing up against their shower door. Not that I ever daydream of doing such a thing...

OMG AH LOVE YOU ALL,
Ree
