Dear Yuletide Writer!

Hello, Writer! However you ended up writing something for me, I thank you--I'm glad and grateful. ♥
A note about treats, in case it's relevant: yes, I am all for them!
(Also, let me say that you'll notice it's very common for me to ask for some of the same fandoms from year to year. If you've written for me previously, please do not ever think this is because I don't still love your gift! I do--it's just that I am still-and-always in the mood for more of these characters and I love them so much. And I am greedy. :D)
If you already have something in mind you think I'll like, go ahead and write it! I want you to enjoy yourself.
If more information about my preferences would help and inspire you, then here's some:
( Some of my preferences )
Here are my signups, in alphabetical order: Hot Fuzz (2007), KeixYaku (TV), Nero Wolfe - Rex Stout, The Sting (1973)
( Hot Fuzz (2007) )

Thanks again for writing for me--I appreciate it! *\o/*

Oct. 19th, 2025 07:53 pmSo the senior Grand Prix series kicked off this weekend, and I am starting to seriously wonder if I want to watch too much of senior figure skating anymore. It's gotten to be so much easier when it's the juniors. I'm even more seriously considering not watching any ice dance competitions in which the predator enablers are competing, except apparently there aren't even likely to go away after the Olympics. (I did that with the men in 2010 because I was so pissed at Plushenko, but he did ultimately more or less fall off after Vancouver.) Except I do so like so many of the other teams I've been able to see so far this year.
I also finished Tusk Love this week. I enjoyed it a bit more at the end, but still found myself annoyed at the romance novel tropes. I have now started reading a book of various writings about the French Revolution.

Oct. 13th, 2025 07:55 pmAlthough I'd continued to play the Sims on my old computer for a number of months, yesterday I finally installed it on the gaming PC and moved by save file over. I was then greeted by the game declaring they didn't recognize my video card. So far this has not caused any actual problems. I even managed to download a build from the gallery for the first time, as I moved my main family into a bigger place in a world where they would hopefully stop getting fined for using too much water. But I've now seen indication it might start lagging if I try to install any mods-and I'll probably want to at least install the command center mod all the streamers seem to use, because that one is clearly crazy useful. On the other hand, while I've purchased a lot of expansion packs now, I'm unlikely to buy anything more for a while. Maybe even ever, but probably I'll succumb to doing so at some point, unless of course EA's new owners ruin all of their old games as well as their new ones.
I've also been watching more of the various Netflix shows I've been slowly getting through with the thought of canceling the service when I'm done with them, but now I'm starting to hesitate on that. Today I finished the eighth episode of the second season of Lost in Space,, and I must wonder if the show's writers ever thought we weren't going to side with the damn robot at the end of that one. I know I'm siding with him.
