Way back in the olden days of January, the very awesome
sheafrotherdon and I made comment fic regarding John and Rodney and a pair of swim trunks. And lo, it is posted!

I've always been pro-warning, although in the past I could see the point of those who where not. My feelings were that it's common courtesy to include them. In my case, I use them to avoid reading deathfic. It was something I always felt sort of ashamed of, that deathfics affect me so strongly. But they bring about a deep depression and sadness, dredging up memories of childhood and the feeling of profound loss, fear, and anxiety that I have worked years to overcome.
And yet my reaction is pretty minor compared to what I've seen described by people who have been victims of rape and abuse and were triggered by coming across it in fic. All anti-warning arguments pale in the face of their deeply moving stories. Now? Anti-warning arguments pretty much piss me off. So do the people who make those arguments.
As much as I want fandom to be my happy!fun place, I'm glad this discussion has come around again. Because I would like it to be a happy!fun place for everyone.

On the one hand, I have cramps. On the other hand, I have achieved a John Sheppard level of sticky-uppedness with my hair. ::is proud.::
So, in honor of the hair, enjoy some John Sheppard/JF Especially Fabulously Good Hair Days:

While comments are a lovely lovely thing and I treasure each one of them, I hope nobody ever feels obligated to leave one. Lurkers are always welcome, and should never feel guilty about doing so. It's all good. *g*

I've already done my 8 Days of Happiness meme, but here's some bonus happy (warning - not dial-up friendly). Because I miss Team Sheppard so very much!

Happy Thing, Day 8Today was a cranky day, full of little annoyances and bad weather and cramps. Even so, it wasn't all that hard to come up with a happy thing:
toomuchplor's
thoughts on Rodney as a newly-gay boyfriend, and resulting discussion on said topic. So much happy!

Happy Thing, Day 6 (belated)
Yesterday ended up being astonishingly busy for a Saturday (for usually I am lazy and sloth-like). But it was definitely a happy day. We went to IKEA! We had never been, and it's a bit of a drive but I found the cutest little table for our sunroom on there website so we headed out there early in the day. Wow, they really do sell EVERYTHING there, don't they? It was rather mind boggling. But quite charming. We got a lot of things that we needed and only spent a wee little amount of money. And I had chocolate cake while there. Yay!
Happy Thing, Day 7
Spent the morning sitting in a sunbeam drinking my coffee (much to the annoyance of the kitty, who wanted that particular sunbeam for herself, and no, she was not in the mood to be a lap kitty). And later, we will be having a delicious dinner with good friends. Happy times!
And happy Easter to all those who celebrate!

Happy Thing, Day 5
Spending the afternoon with my most bestest friend, who always makes me happy. Part of the time was spent shopping to buy the food she's going to feed us for dinner this Sunday. Woo! Local organically bred spiral ham FTW!
Also--realizing that the husband is just as addicted to HGTV design shows as I am.

Happy Thing, Day Three
Seeing this in my e-newsletter from a local spice shop:
We created Hyde Park Seasoning in honor of the election of the first president from Chicago. Obama's Chicago home is in Hyde Park, a neighborhood in the South Loop that's home to many of Chicago's finest cultural institutions. Hyde Park was the site of the World's Fair in 1893, and now boasts the University of Chicago and several of Chicago's best museums. Our Hyde Park Seasoning reflects some of the best aspects of the neighborhood and the president, with bold peppery flavor subtly enhanced by rare African Grains of Paradise, grated shallots for elegance, and Hawaiian sea salt. Bright red bird chilies add heat, in a nod to the colorful Monk parakeets living in the neighborhood.

Happy Thing, Day 2
Well, the big happy is definitely the news that Vermont has legalized gay marriage. Woo! Go Vermont!
A happy thing on a somewhat less monumentious scale: sausage and peppers for dinner. Specifically, hot italian sausage and roasted red peppers on an italian roll. Best. Food. Ever. And enough leftovers for both of us to take for lunch tomorrow. Yay!

The very adorable
dogeared tagged me for a meme:
1. Post about something that made you happy today, even if it's just a small thing.
2. Do this every day for eight days.
3. Tag eight of your friends to do the same.It's a lovely meme.
Happy Thing, Day 1It's a happy thing that happens every day when I come home from work: a lovefest with the kitty. I walk in the door, she scampers down the hallway , sprawls on the Love Mat (a small throw rug by our back door) and demands LOVE. I pet her up, scratch shoulders, rub her butt; she rolls over and waves her paws and acts generally ridiculous. There's cooing and air-kneading and cat hairs up my nose and rolling over and more purring and cooing and lots of shedding. This will go on for as long as I pet her. Eventually I need to put my stuff down and take my coat off, so then she runs up to the food bowl and coos at me some more as I point out to her that it's only four o'clock and no, that's not when kitties get to eat.
Then scampering up and down our long hallway commences.
It's a great way to end the workday.

Yay! The very lovely and talented
pennyplainknits made a podfic of "An Inaccurate Telling", a fic chelle and I wrote together. I can't wait to listen to it. We had so much fun writing that fic, and I'm delighted
pennyplainkits chose to record it. Thank you, sweets!
