Lorraine is Happy Because

1. I got the most amazing package from [livejournal.com profile] executrix with a skirt (that I wore today!) and a sweet ruffledy scarf, and lip balm (which Emma and I are sharing), and all these teensy cups and saucers and teapots. Lovely, lovely gifts, Exec. Thank you.

2. Christmas card from [livejournal.com profile] suki_blue

3. My Firefly stories Touched, or Eight Fragments and Five Rather Nasty and Sadistic Things that Never Happened to Simon Tam were nominated at the Serenity on the Hellmouth Awards. I had forgotten about those stories; it seems so long ago that I was in Firefly fandom, but I'm pleased with both stories and it's nice to get recognition for stuff I wrote a long time ago. Thank you anonymous nommer!

4. I got a job today. It's only for nineteen hours a week but it's several dollars more than minimum wage an hour and hopefully I can find a second part time something as well.

Woot! It arrived! And at least some of the little cups and saucers weren't finely powdered, so yay! I thought the skirt would look cute with gold mules...

Congrats on the noms, and trust me, Firefly fandom wants you back again!

Yayness on the job too, because even if it sucks you know you don't have to spend hugeness hours there.

Emma loves the Cinderella flagon. I feel like she ought to be drinking mead out of it but milk will do. LOL

I have the feeling the job will either suck or be very rewarding with not a lot of in betweeness. It's a tutoring/writing center job for the athletic department and there will be much remediation involved.

OMG you're Mrs. Coach!

And here's proof that nothing good goes unpunished.

When I picked up Emma at daycare I discovered that her daycare is closing. I'm not sure we can afford to put her anywhere else as childcare (and everything else really) in this town is so freaking expensive.

So, got any of that vodka left? LOL

Damn! That sucks. I'm sure you'll be able to find something else, though. Somewhere!

I know. I will. It's just frustrating and I feel whiny. LOL

Whiny! I feel that way sometimes too.

Thank you baby. :)

I know I don't say this enough (and Lord do the holidays make my uterus swell to almost unbeliveable emotional proportions LOL), but you are so dear to me. So freaking dear to me. I'm so glad you're my friend.
