[salixbabylon]

presents - made
cards - written, stamped, mailed
packages - packed, mailed
entire gift list - finished

I SO TOTALLY WIN AT CHRISTMAS.

All I have left is baking and writing and wrapping gifts and decorating the house - the things I actually enjoy! :)

Oh, and I need to prep last year's xmas tree the yule log. But that's fun too because it makes me feel all Rugged and Capable, with a handsaw and sap all over my fingers.

Go on - tlel me how much I kick ass. Reward me with kinky recs for SPN and Harry Potter. And bandslash. And RPS kink. Please?

So far, yes! :) *hug*

You rule at holidays.

I will only suck at them for two more days. After I write my exams on Saturday, I'm in full-on holiday mode.

But I've been doing bits and pieces - I already bought your present! I'll mail it Monday. *crosses fingers*

I'll give you a hint - it involves semi-naked men...

[salixbabylon.livejournal.com]

I still suck at birthdays, if that's any consolation. Your xmas gift is on it's way but your nirthday one might be late. *cringes*

Yay for exams being finished! Best of luck, sweetheart. *smooch*

I love semi-naked men - it's so easy to unwrap them the rest of the way. :)

You totally win at Christmas. (So you found the teacup?!) God, I am so envious. I just picked up my cards tonight ... I haven't started any of them! :P

I have this rec to offer: http://brummell.livejournal.com/329.html#cutid1 It's my favorite H/D story of the last few months. It's not canon-compliant through DH though (just through HBP.) But it's GOOD. I've been approaching the fest fics with caution, but I have found a few good ones there too, like this one: http://asylums.insanejournal.com/merry_smutmas/5434.html?

(sorry I don't have the brainpower to do fancy links atm. and of course I'm only reading H/D.)

Anyway, congratulations!!! :)

I did - found the prefect teacup at the little antique shop right by my house. :)

Thank you for the recs! I can't wait to go read them. *huG*

That's it, make the rest of us look bad... though I did start baking tonight (3 batches down, 20 or so to go...)

[salixbabylon.livejournal.com]

Awww... I am as shocked as everyone. My incentive was that overseas packages had to go out ASAP and that my mother is arriving on Tuesday to "do Christmas." I didn't have a choice about being ready early.

Now, however, I am totally behind in work stuff. :P

*glomps you* You totally kick ass!

Now. Can I hire you? Heck, you've got time to squeeze in one more Christmas before the 24th.

[salixbabylon.livejournal.com]

Hahahahah! No. ;)

I think the trick is to do it bit by bit, whe it feels fun. I wrap presents and write cards and assemble packages while I'm watching xmas-themed TV/Movies - makes the time go by much faster.

whoa, you rock! *is amazed*

All I managed to get done so far was mail out all my cards (today) and get about half of the presents I need. And I absolutely have no idea what to get the other half. *sighs*

[salixbabylon.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but you've been doing schoolwork. I'm behind in work-work, just ahead of the game in holidays. Given how long it takes to ship things overseas and that my mother is arriving on Tuesday for "Christmas", I *had* to be ready super early.

You'll get it done. :) *hug*

[astrojen.livejournal.com]

You rock!

Although I have to say, I am now at that stage myself. All the painting is done and everything looks lovely. Can I join you in the smug corner?

Jen ;->

[salixbabylon.livejournal.com]

Whoo! We can have a smug-party! :)

Isn't it such a relief to have all that stuff out of the way? Although now I have a lot of work-work that I need to get done that I fell behind on. *sigh* ;)

[willowwing.livejournal.com]

Woo hoo! You win the Golden Elf Award. *claps*

[salixbabylon.livejournal.com]

WHOOO!

*points at icon* I choose this elf! :)

[willowwing.livejournal.com]

Hmmm... I know some men of Gondor that might fight you for that one. Wouldn't you settle for a nice house elf?

[salixbabylon.livejournal.com]

I'll settle for watching the Men of Gondor with their Elf. ;)

[elfscribe5.livejournal.com]

You are awesome. I'm getting there, slowly but surely. . .

[salixbabylon.livejournal.com]

*smooch* I did have a deadline/incentive - my mother is coming "for Christmas" on Tuesday. So I'm not really that amazing - I had to get things done early. I'm hoping to relax and enjoy the rest of it. ;)
