kate | A collection of good things

It's been a while, I see. And also, looking over my last several posts, it shouldn't have been a surprise that I got my period today. The cranky, it comes in cycles.

Good things:

+++I GOT A HAND WRITTEN NOTE FROM

marina THAT IS SO ADORABLE I COULD DIE! :D :D :D

roga brought it when she visited, and we were going to meet at the September stitch n' bitch, but my whole house had the plague, so we didn't make it. So, I got it at October stitch n' bitch, but I haven't had a chance to post about it yet. I was thinking of waiting until we got our new color scanner in the office, and I could snip the little hearts and make them an icon. <3

dingsi started an index for the anonymous love meme. Also, whichever one of you sweet people started a thread for me, thank you from the bottom of my heart. <3<3<3 (And all you lovely people that have commented, thank you too. <3)

+++Interesting link lifted from the dwircle somewhere: how to write cops. Of interest to me because I will never write them. Interesting read, though, definitely.

+++RECS! :D

meansgirl wrote me a ficlet for that meme that went around where you asked people to pick a number on your playlist. I got ABBA, Supertrouper! And she wrote me this delightful commentfic about disco on Atlantis. There's glitter! \o/ ETA: Whoops, apparently this post is locked. Sorry! Trust me, though, it's awesome!

meansgirl also made a vid! I am so jealous of people who can just DO that, and I will steal her for a weekend when I get a new computer and make her help me make the vid I've got scripted in my head, but in the meantime, go look at Blood Makes Noise, a perfectly creepy vid to start the Halloween season.

busaikko writes perfect McKay/Keller/Sheppard, one where everyone is human and real and just, yes. The most recent bit is If We Were a Movie, a delightful bit of fluff with glitter nail polish! Clearly it's a glittery rec set. :D

katemonkey wrote some delightfully sweet Clay/OMC Losers fic. A Steak Dinner, A Few Beers, in response to this prompt on

thelosers_kink: Clay's women are all batshit crazy . . . and all his *men* are completely the opposite - bland, unassuming and not that in shape, just average. Lovely, just really nice.

shaenie has a gorgeous Peter/Elizabeth/Neal OT3 that's smoking hot and completely in character and just generally as awesome as

shaenie herself is. Contractual Obligations is currently at three chapters, and not finished yet. That said, it's fantastic where it is, and it doesn't leave you hanging, so I suggest going with it.
