forget your Unified Theory of Everything

You may think that the cloying, syrupy sweet love from everyone and their mom is over, but you've forgotten unValentine's Day, which is today, and every single day for the rest of this year! MWAH!

So, hop over to viciouswishes' post, and love on the important women in your life, and love on yourself, too. There should be more self-love in some people's lives. BECAUSE I LOVE YOU. YES, YOU. In capital letters.

Next, mozey over to chrisleeoctaves and talk about romantic moments (and visit her links because hey I'm one of 'em; they must be good. See? SELF-LOVE!). If you're like me and just haven't had that many romantic moments, make up something. Like the time DB and CK were gettin' it on and called you up so you could listen? Yeah, that. Chris won't mind. She's a great gal and I love her and her B/A love.

Last (but not last. Remember, unValentine's Day FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE), take a gander at crazydiamondsue's Xander love. Even if you aren't a Xander fan, even if you *gasp!* don't like Xander all that much, Sue will lock you in a room with him and possibly Angel and make dirty!bad!things happen to you until you admit he has his nice qualities. I've always liked Xander, but she seriously stokes the love, man.

Thanks to everyone who made the day brighter by spreadin' the love. Y'all rock. And, because the world needs more of it: PINK!

Is it really kita0610's birthday? How do people find these things out?

Anyway, happy birthday, kita0610. And, because I'm mushy like that, 5 Reasons You Float My Boat are:
1. You loved on and recced my first ever finished Jossverse fanfic, which made me feel kinda famous.
2. You'll flash VK's dick without much provocation.
3. You proved wrong my erstwhile opinion that certain things just can't be achieved in text, and made me a better writer just by having read you.
4. You're like Xander's Cock with wings, in a way, and I believe in you.
5. I think you're a good, loving, and strong person.
6. There are so many reasons you keep my cheesewheel cranked I thought there should be more than 5.

I'm invoking my official capacity as . . . Official Capacity Invoking Gal to declare this month the Month Of The OTP.

Because when some people think of B/A they think: they're so over. And when some people think of A/S they think: but they're not gay! And when some people think of S/X they think: I . . . I just don't get it. And when some people read B/F they think: I'm liking it and I don't even know why! And when some people read B/Gunn they think: hey! those two never even met!

And so I'm going to share my love for my own OTP. I have a bunch of bits floating around in my back up files (because my comp blew up) and in my head that're all about My Favorite Pairing: why I ship them, why I love them, things I think other people should know about them, recs I want and recs I want to give, what I hate about it, things I feel like whining about in regards to it.

I love B/A. I want others who love B/A to splooge with me in a cesspit of love. And I want others who don't love B/A to learn something about my love, or to grow to respect it, or to try a fic and discover they kinda like it or no, that they really hate it, or to point and laugh and say affectionately, oh, you silly B/Aers, we all know Snyder/Oz is the only ship worth squeeing over! I want those who don't love B/A to share their B/S love, or A/S love, or S/X love, or B/F love, or Snyder/Oz love, and teach me something about it, or romance me into loving it with them.

So I'm going to try to organize my B/A bits and share my love, because I'm nothing if not a great big old mushy . . . Mushy Gal. And because I doubt anyone else has been collecting OTP bits and wondering what to do with them like I have, or that anyone is going to say: this is a great idea tkp, let me go squee in my own journal right now (though I'm secretly hoping every one of you will, which is apparently no longer a secret), you can do it here.

( Because I'm interested in you, your loves, your fic, your recs, your kinks, your complaints, your why doesn't anyone see the beauty of Lilah/Clem?s, your rants, your squees, your flames, your meta, your why I'm here in this fandom!s . . . and also because gosh darn it, I like you, and I want to like your 'ship too. )

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Some things you just need to get off your head.

( More fandom things that won't go away. )

There. All better.

Dude. I guess I was still in denial that people could deny they'd back scuttled. Done their back door work. Brown-eyed, brown-holed, daubed the brush, dipped in the fudge pot, done it the Greek way and in the Italian manner as the Hands of Blue have done so often. Kiester stabbed, kneeled at the altar, ram-jobbed, performed the "unnatural" vice, as I'm sure they said it somewhen. Buggered, fucked, and loved. Sheesh.

P.S. I love Joss!

Because yay! a2zmom tagged me. ETA: And aloneinthetown. Yay!

5 Habits Of A Highly Wonky Woman.

1. I go into those stores that sell Hello Kitty products just because I like the smell of plastic.

2. Mornings make me nauseous. Physically. Like I'm pregnant. Only without everything else, including the conception sex.

3. I spend a little time every year seriously contemplating why someone real hasn't tried to become Batman yet.

4. I play MASH with my friends. A lot. But we only do the marriage part, besides the new category we added. Currently I'm married to the Crocodile Hunter but have twice a year hot love affairs with Yan Can Cook.

5. Sometimes I still say Weeee Beep!.

I tag anyone who hasn't done this yet.

Writing reviews is kind of natural to me. I always want to write what I think after I see a movie, and I figure now I may as well, since I have a place to keep them and someone or other might be interested. This one is about Narnia. Over all, I liked it, but this ended up being mostly about faults I saw, so...reader discretion is advised? I don't know.

Chapter thirteen of Best Souvernir. (Whistler never existed. Buffy and Angel meet after the End of Days is over. Future fic, alternate reality.)

A/N: Big thanks to a2zmom who has picked up on my fault of over-explaining characters until they're no longer interesting.

from 12:

Angel, looking vexed, a little bored, said, “What are you talking abou—”

“Gypsies.”

So, since it's a holiday, I'm reducing my normal fare to two questions.

( Does Spike's head look like a Ken doll to anyone else? )

Happy Everything to Everybody, Even If It's Already Over!

And a great big ole thank you to chrisleeoctaves and marenfic for seasons greetings.

( Now, from me to you, where my Granny lives! )

I won't be around for a while, but I'm thinking of all of you who made this year special. That means YOU! Much love to everyone in the whole entire world. And dude. I'm not even drunk.
