Happy New Year!

I'm back, I'm home, I've consumed much champagne, hence short but deliriously happy post. Lovely home, lovely champagne, lovely lovely yuletide story!

It is called A Diversion, rated PG, it's Vorkosiganverse and features Miles and Bel on another bizarre mission: "After all, you can only spend so many hours on expense reports before death and danger begin to look good."

Thanks so very very much, dear Santa, and I hope you got a good present too.

A very happy New Year to all, filled with massive amounts of good things and lashings of fannish glee.

Will answer emails and post recs and things when fireworks have stopped and brain is back online. Wheeee!

Happy New Year! We`ve just come back from fireworks. Wee!

And an extra special Happy New Year to you! The fireworks are still going off all around me (and not just in my head, in case you were wondering *g*).

They are still going off over here too and it`s almost 5 a.m. But I think my brain was wiped clean and I don`t care anymore and I`m going to sleep. *g*

I don`t care anymore and I`m going to sleep

Heh. Yeah, I went to bed around two and the fireworks were still blazing, but I stopped caring. *g*

Yay, you survived the wilds! Welcome back!

Thanks! Glad to be back, though the wilds were fun - not all that wild, but there was snow, a rare commodity to the Dutch. No chopping wood this time though, alas.

Oooh Milesverse! Poor Bel deserved a tumble with the Admiral, really s/he did.

There are quite a few Milesverse stories up this year - I haven't read them all yet, but I'm happy they're there. And yeah, I always felt vaguely sorry for Bel. *g*

Welcome back, Mary. We missed you, but I'm sure we're all glad you appeared to have a good time. We're still waiting for the new year here.

Barbara

Yippie! She's home! She's home!

Yes! And reading the fabulous yuletide stories, wheee!

Aw. I suppose I'll have to put Santa!Iolaus away now...

I was insanely busy, out of town for a bit, and managed to miss you anyway. *g* I hope you had a lovely, restful time!

Awww! *gloms* I had a great time, but I missed you guys and the whole mad yuletide feeding frenzy.

Quick detour to your LJ - eeef. I hope your Xmas was less stressful than it sounds, and that your sister is OK. And that you get to spend New Year's the way you want. *g*

Dankjewel, en insgelijks!

Yay, you're back! And you wrote my Yuletide story, woohoo! I totally didn't guess that you were the author, mainly because there was another story I was sure you wrote. If fact, I think I was completely wrong on all my guesses.

[identity profile] marycrawford.livejournal.com 2005-01-01 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee! Oh, now I'm dying to know which story you thought I wrote! And the only one I felt even competent enough to guess at was your story, heh. I've been coding on the sly, will do a new post with story links in a bit.

Happy New Year!
