Dec. 21st, 2006 06:06 pmIt was Corey's carol concert today. I went with my nanna, and as we were walking to the church she asked how old I was going to be next year. So I told her, at which point she said she hadn't been able to remember exactly, just knew I was getting on. Getting on....sigh.
But, Corey's finished school for the term now, and James finishes work today, so that's good. I submitted my sesa at half past midnight last night, after a minor panic when it came complete with weird symbols included. ( which shouldn't have happened as I had smart quotes turned off ). But, I got that sorted, and now it's posted. It even has a title, sadly I decided Fuelled by Coffee Alone wouldn't cut it, despite that being oh so true. What I want to know, is it only me that has the nightmare that they go to post the thing and realise you're written totally the wrong pairing? Like, did Brian/JC when they wanted Nick/Howie.
The pantomime was good last night. Though I never realised Daisy the cow was in Red Riding Hood, but it seems she is. Tonight we're doing the main grocery shop, all I hope is it's quieter with going so late. While I'm there I need to pick up a gift for my brother. For the last few years he hasn't bought me anything, just buying for Corey. Which is fine, so this year I didn't get him anything, just bought for my niece. So of course he's gone out and got me a gift.
Thank you so much for the cards, Raven, Bayou and Eva. *mwah* Also, KC, your card came. It's obvious that you're my favourite story-reading-Lance-discussing friend. Happy Anniversary! *smooch* Also also. I got a parcel from
interlock with much stuff that I adore, and a new lamp! A battery powered glittery one that makes a fine addition to the collection. He even looks like Lamp! *glee* Thank you!
Last thing. Corey told me yesterday it was 5 days to new Doctor Who, not Christmas. I so love having a mini fanboy around.

How's it going at the in-laws?

It's kinda exhausting so the LWT has taken them off to the beach as it's beautifully sunny and hot and I'm hiding my pale welsh waif skin inside with my mother in law with the excuse that she needs help cooking Weinachten dinner. Instead I'm skimming LJ and reloading the SeSa page just in case *grin*
Have a merry merry merry day and brace yourself for the fab story feedback ;o)

I was dreaming about SeSa last night, about getting a comment telling me everything from the story length, to the title was wrong. I must have been thinking about it too much *g*
Hope you have a great day!
