Things To Be Happy About, July 2nd, 2005 Edition: A List

by Pearl-o, aged 20 years and six months

1. I have a cute new haircut!

2. Livejournal and its regular delivery of porn and/or funniness to me! Not to mention, you know, the dozens and dozens of totally awesome people I never would have in my life without it.

3. I like books!

4. Coke with Lime is sweet sweet crack!

5. Arrival of Deadwood season 2 episodes from qe2 yesterday!

6. I get to bake this weekend! And cook! And lots of exciting kitchen shenanigans!

7. New ac adapter for my computer will be arriving before the end of the week, and I can stop having to share with my family! (Sharing does not equal caring, I don't care what propaganda they're trying to sell you.)

8. I am entertaining myself thinking about babyfic to write for lalejandra! Because she is just that squishy, apparently. *heart*

9. My parents are not doing fireworks this year, so I do not have to be the Party Pooper Boring Girl who Hates Them and Thus Is Automatically Assigned Dog Freak-out Control Duty!

10. Ray and Fraser are totally in love! <3<3<3<3<3<3!

11. See #10, only replace "Ray and Fraser" with any of my other OTPs. Unless it is Simon and River, in which case "are so totally creepy and wrong and perfect! <3<3<3<3<3<3!" is more appropriate.

12. I just like the number twelve.

yay!

Okay, I don't know if you people reading my journal pay any attention at all to me, but if you do, you probably realize that of my all due South fandom yearnings, Francesca Vecchio fic is way, way, way up there on my wishlist. And Frannie femslash is especially rare, and thus especially sweet. So I am doing a happy little dance now over just having read lost_theplot's A Glorious Revolution, which I somehow missed when it was posted to noticeboard the other day. Slow and sweet and lovely and FRANNIE. *heart*

And really, while I'm on the subject of Frannie/Maggie Mackenzie stories, there's only really one other story in the pairing I know of, and that's cmshaw's awesome Dear Francesca, from the ds_flashfiction Courtesy Challenge a few years back, which I also rec very very highly.

In conclusion: FRANNIE!
