Yep, it's got to that time of year where I start picking out my clothes the night before. So I can sleep with them under the covers with me and they'll be warm in the morning.

Though it's also the time of year to sign up for yuletide! I offered less than 100 fandoms this year, which I think is a record for me. (It seemed a lot lighter on '80s and '90s YA than usual, though, which is maybe why.)

I may have to go back in and offer more, though.

Ahh yes, the cold. :( It's not quite seasonable here yet, thankfully, but I'm glad I have my electric blanket for when it IS that cold. ♥

It's not too bad, but it's bad enough that getting up in the morning is *hard*.

Eeeek. Sounds very unhappy. :(

We're covering the windows and have added many extra blankets to the bed. Yay for blankies.

We haven't covered the windows yet and we haven't excavated the furnace enough to let the landlord replace the filter, so we haven't turned the heat on yet.

...lots of blankets, cuddling of cats, and hot chocolate.

YOU NEED TO TURN THE HEAT ON! D:

.. I thought I was crazy for offering 32. I might even need to go back in and trim that number a bit ...

I offered ... um, 86?

My criteria are 1, I have easy access to the canon; 2, it's short enough that I could review it, and one of 3, I want to re-read/watch it or 4, I want to subvert it.

But I did it real quick and I think I missed some. (I can't believe I missed Citizen Kane! Kane/Leland OTP 4eva!

I read some of that meta that got posted yesterday, and someone said they'd tried to stick to fandoms that they'd be really excited to see in their inbox. So I attempted to follow that criteria. :D

But if I did that, I'd have over 100!

(Psst, still got those Tek scans hanging around? sailorptah needs them for purposes of AWESOME FIC.)

Yeah, but it's only issue one and the issue 2 previews.

Here, while I'm filling up your webspace anyway: Tek Jansen 1, etc. (http://melannen.katycat.net/tek jansen 1/)
