Holidaaay. Celebraaate.

Are you hearing Adam Sandler from The Wedding Singer right now? No? Well you should be!
The point of this post is: I am going on a short hiatus! I'm gonna hang up the internet for the week of Christmas to hang with my family and finish a last minute project for my parents. I'm embroidering them a mini tapestry of naval flags that spells out our last name1. My fingers feel like raw meat. Emboidery is very addictive, though. I went for six hours yesterday without stopping! It's my new record, and I hope I never break it because my back was killing me afterward. I don't how grannies do it!

I leave you with Linus as he explains what Christmas means to me.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hannakuh, and/or Happy Kwanzaa! I will see y'all next week!

Nightmare Scenario #1

  It's finally happened; my worst tightmare's come true! My computer, ol' faithful herself, has crashed. For good. She's dead! No more! All my files; gone. Like the dousing of a candle in the cold, cold night.
  I'm now posting from my library, which luckily has quite a few computers available and is also very close to my abode. Posts will be slightly fewer and not have pics for the forseeable future, but I will still be here! I'll be pounding the keys for one hour every to every other day, so help me God1!
  And now we return to our regularly scheduled programming, already in progress.

 My answer: Happy endings. Nothing makes me happier than closing a book when everything ended well for the characters. The story could have had the most atrocious villains, the most horrible circumstances and cataclysmic events1, but so long as the protagonist comes out happy and safe2 in The End, I'll be left smiling like a fool.

Tootles,

Teeny, Tiny, Micro Post

I've changed my name from 21 to Zombie Girrrl, it suits me better, and most people call me that anyway. Plus the only reason I chose 21 in the first place was for 13 & Co., which I only post on occasionally. It was like a call sign. I'll still use it for that blog, but for everything else (which is basically everything), I'm adopting the name Taschima gave me. Thanks, Taschima!
Tootles,
