Hump Day Happenings

I had the most godawful migraine this morning (to the point where food was one of those things that happened to other people, not me), but I’ve since managed to kick it. I think. My head feels a little padded and cottony, like it’s stuffed full of something, but since I’m not actively whimpering, I don’t caaaaaare.

My condolences to my beta reader, who is only halfway through my Secret Santa story and has miles to go before he sleeps. When he received it, I think I heard a faint, helpless bleat from his direction. I hope his tears are warm comfort to him as he falls asleep every night.

Maybe I should buy him a Christmas gift or something.

We’ve apparently got a winter storm named Draco coming our way, which means that snow will be back. This is good news for my dog, who, though she’s short of fur and delicate of paw, adores snow more than the crack it sometimes resembles. Here is her permanent expression whenever snow happens:

Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] inkvoices for my awesome new icon. It’s one of those “You had to be there to get it” things, but I adore it like nothing else. **huggles it**

Also, here are a couple of icons I made:

Doggie! What a cutie!

And icons! The one of Jeremy and Scarlett is gorgeous!

Thank you! That's one you'll see the bigger version of next week when the Secret Santa stories (and their various headers) get unveiled.
