while the family's away...

First, very happy birthday wishes to prophecy_girl! I hope you have a great day!

My Harry Potter Recs Page is updated with 13 new recs:

Recs
2 HP/SS
3 RL/SS
2 RL/SB
2 Weasley Fic (both Harry/Ron)
2 Misc (SS/HG and SS/RL, SS/HP, SS/HP/RL)
2 Art Recs (RL/SS and HP/RW)

One of my favorites is the Harry/Ron art by Lizardpots and the Harry/Snape rec, "So Lonely Without You." It's been a while since I found a new, long HP/SS fic that I adore. Snape is a bit vulnerable at times but he never loses his edge. I really like seeing him at war with himself.

I'm also reading some of the Yuletide stories and I'm in love with The Supper Club. This is exactly as I imagine it played out 20 years in the future. I'm also wondering why I never read M*A*S*H fic before. It makes so much sense.

I'm in bed right now and it's wonderful. My family is still here but I caught a nasty cold that kept me in bed yesterday and prevented me from going to the gym with everyone this morning. Hopefully I'll recover quickly because we have some shopping to do before they leave and stargems comes tomorrow. Then Stephen's here on Thursday and lunch with gjstruthseeker on Friday. I imagine, by Friday night, I'll be fried enough to cancel my New Year's plan in favor of some hot chocolate and some sweats. :)

because it felt too frivolous to post this along with recs...

I can't even get my arms around the magnitude of the earthquake/tsunami in Asia. The number of dead is unthinkable. The International Red Cross/Red Crescent, as well as a multitude of other organizations, is taking donations for their relief fund. So, if you can, give a little bit. The region's got a long road ahead.
