I GOT A NEW NETBOOK! AND HALF OF A DESKTOP!

See, my mom got me the netbook (yay!) and she got my dad a larger computer monitor. He's been using my brother's old (but perfectly acceptable) flatscreen monitor, so I asked if I could have it so that I can only have to buy a tower to have a new computer. And he said yes, which means when the bonuses and tax return roll around for me, I should totally be able to get a new computer. \o/

Also, the netbook is pretty. And I named her Olive, because she is adorable and wee. *nods solemnly*

Oh, I also got clothes, money, an electric toothbrush, an electric chopping machine for my kitchen, lotion that smells like chocolate chip cookies, a bunch of gift cards, and an electric blanket. Score.

Oh! And Yuletide! Yuletide, which is awesome and netted me six, count 'em, SIX freaking fabulous fics:

-- Between One Breath And The Next, which is a wonderful, sweet Hero story with Thom and Goran. Oh, boys.
-- Whether or Not Anyone Is Really At Fault. You guys. You guys. Some magnificent bastard out there wrote me Christian/Olli/Judith smut. I can't describe the giddy flailing look on my face when I read that. It's so fucking HOT. Yay!

And the RPF ...

-- Police Contribution. I don't want to tell you what it's about or who the narrator is, BUT it cracked me the hell up and I couldn't figure out who the narrator was until about halfway through, at which point I flipped my shit, because my brother and I were fanboy/girling him last night at the Christmas party. Heh.
-- The Council of Kick-Ass Women of America. I want to print this out and read it when I need to feel amazing and empowered, at which point I will simply skim this story and proceed to flap my hands in the air like a happy penguin.
-- For You Are Crunchy and Taste Good With Ketchup. OMG, let me put it this way -- if you've ever read or written the Vancouver crowd, you have GOT to read this. It's amazing.
-- David's Devilish, but Bette's Better. *chokesplorfles*
