Title/Series: Cyber Monday! (A Thanksgiving Visit, part V)
Author: BookGirl
Prompt: Bah Humbug

Brian woke up to the sound of typing. A one-eyed squint revealed a naked blond snuggling with his laptop. “What in the hell are you doing?” He asked roughly, “It's 4 AM.”
“It's Cyber Monday!” Justin whispered excitedly.
Brian furrowed his brow, or at least tried to. It was a little early for facial expressions. “Unless that has something to do with porn, you and the laptop need to get out of my bed.”
“You always say Christmas is really all about commercialism, I'm just trying to prove you right.”
“Well Bah Humbug,then.” Brian muttered, slapping the laptop closed and diving on Justin.

Title: Old Friends
Author: [info]vl_redreign
Prompt: Bah!Humbug!

Notes: Same timeline, shift in POV. And mention of an old, much missed friend. This thing took off on me, and I had to cut out almost 40 words. So, unbeta'd.


Lindsay stood at the backdoor and stripped each child, wrapping them in terry robes and leading them to the kitchen table, where hot chocolate awaited.

Marie entered, carrying her youngest, followed by Mel.

“I’m so glad you guys are here,” she said. “Dusty loved the holidays.”

“Do you remember that year when she and I were insane enough to do the Black Friday sales?”

Marie laughed. “That was a nightmare!”

“I told her she was nuts to go,” Mel added.

“I miss her still,” Linds said softly.

“Well, she’d want us to enjoy ourselves. No ‘bah humbugs’ in this house.”

Hey [info]not_yet_defined! I think you promised me an anonymous icon for the current blue theme over at [info]qaf_icons. Since you're home alone tonight you can certainly find the time to make one itty bitty icon, right? RIGHT?

*taps foot impatiently*

I probably won't post the anonymous icon voting for a couple of days so GET TO IT. :D

Nov. 30th, 2009 @ 10:55 pm How I spent my Saturday...
Current Mood: productive

Friday I ventured into the wilds of Black Friday shopping, which was back to normal shopping by the time I got there, and bought myself a present at Lowe's. Saturday, I spent the day hanging my present. As usual, it ended up being a bigger task than I imagined, especially with having to clean off the top of my computer stand. But I'm very happy with how it turned out.

This is what I got...

Photobucket

It's a 2 foot x 2 foot light. :D Hanging right above my computer stand. And I put it up all by myself. :D

Nov. 30th, 2009 @ 09:18 pm Icon theme - Blue
Current Mood: cranky

Tags: , , ,

Just under the wire....here are my totally uninspired icons for this months theme over at [info]qaf_icons. I seem to have lost my icon groove and it doesn't seem like it'll return any time soon. I had actually picked out close to 50 scenes I wanted to iconize and ended up with only 16 completed. Two months, 16 icons....yeah, not good.

It's like I forgot how to multi-task. LOL

I'm rushing around trying to get ready for my vacation (I leave on Sunday). Eventually, I'll be at this fabulous spa for a few days before heading to my sister's.

I CANNOT WAIT.

However, before I can go, I have so much to do. All the presents have to be wrapped and packed for them for xmas and my nephew's first birthday. I have to get the pet sitter in here so I can show her what she needs to do with Champ.

I have to finish laundry, pack, finish decorating the house for the holidays (so it's all done when I get home) and somewhere in all that, I MUST get my hair done. Oh and did I mention that I have to work too?

So, instead of focusing on all of this, I ordered myself a bday present, the BLACKBERRY CURVE 8330 and I got it in red...to match my car. ROFL. I'm just kidding, it was either that or orange and since I'm a diva, I went with red.

WOOHOO my enhanced license came so I can easily cross the border into Canada and back, so it's official, I've got all I need for the trip.

Title: Thankful
Prompt: Thanksgiving Day
Notes: I know I'm being glib about Thanksgiving, but it's a very Australian trait, so plze forgive! Tweaked very slightly from the original posted at [info]qaf_drabbles for the 37 Days of Gusmas drabble challenge. There's lots of good stuff going on over there. Check it out!

*

“Happy Thanksgiving!”

“Hey, Sunshine. You too. Or was that yesterday for you?”

“It would have been, but Australians know nothing about Thanksgiving, and care even less. Besides, it’s too damn hot here for turkey.”

“Poor Justin. Suffering for your art.”

I snort. “Shut up. I know I shouldn’t complain; the weather's great and I’ve sold three pieces already. I just wish I was there.”

“No worries, mate!” Brian says in a god-awful Australian accent. “I’ll stuff your turkey when you get back.”

I laugh. “Maybe I’ll stuff yours too.”

He lowers his voice. “Well, there’s something to be thankful for.”

Title: Bah Humbug
Author: wavingcat5
Prompt: Bah Humbug
Notes: Of course, Brian is the cynic in this drabble.
I also wanted to post a B/J ice skating story, but it's not working out. Can I pimp my need for a beta here?

Title: Where It’s Snowing

Author: [info]noteverything

Prompt: First Snow

Notes: Unbeta’d...all mistakes are mine. This is for the amazing [info]fun_demented, for more reasons than I could ever say. &hearts
 I took the idea from a drabble I wrote last year for the 100 drabbles [info]jule1122 and I did for the 100th prompt in [info]qaf_drabbles. Sort of a prequel, if you will.


“George! You have to come see!” Emmett’s voice rang through the room as he hurried in to rouse George from his easy chair near the roaring fire. “First snow of the season!”

Emmett, dressed all in white right down to his fur-topped boots, was grinning from ear to ear as he handed George his coat and mittens. “It’s so beautiful,” Emmett exclaimed.

George let himself be pulled out into the yard and spent the rest of the afternoon with the love he never thought he’d find, building a snowman with a red scarf and a pickle for a nose.

Title/Series: Missing You (A Thanksgiving Visit, part IV)
Author: BookGirl
Prompt: Holidays on Ice
Note: Quick, dirty and unbetaed. I apologize for any mistakes.

“How is it possible you've been here for 8 hours and my dick has yet to make contact with your ass?” Brian asked sliding the loft door closed behind them.
“Poor baby, next time I'll just let you fuck me right on the table. We can use the gravy as lube. I'm sure Deb won't mind a bit”
“She's seen worse I'm sure. Someone need a drink.”
“What I need is you naked, but I'll settle for a Christmas Ale.”
Brian snorted. “Christmas Ale are you kidding me?”
“Yeah, it's like the holidays on Ice.”

Nov. 29th, 2009 @ 09:29 pm Under the Sheets
As some of you may know, [info]chering and I have written many, many fics together, I have written many a fic without her (diarrhea of the fingers), and [info]chering has written several solo. What follows is one of [info]chering's fics.

Under the Sheets consists of the bedroom conversations Cowlip never let us hear, and it's rated, as always...NC-17.

Read it, enjoy, and give [info]chering some love.

Nov. 29th, 2009 @ 08:05 pm Random stuff
I've been crazy busy this weekend with all kinds of family stuff but I kept sneaking away and checking in on fandom on my phone. Looks like lots of good stuff has been going on and hopefully I'll have time to catch up this week. I'm especially happy to see all the drabbles!

I've been waiting to find out the release date of my first original fic at Torquere Press and I finally got the email today. July 21st 2010... I was expecting it to be sometime after the first of the year but I was shocked that I will have to wait that long.

Title: Ungraceful Under Pressure
Author: [info]vl_redreign
Prompt: Holidays On Ice

Notes: [info]frantic_quest gave me the idea for this one. I couldn't resist.


Gus and JR ran around the outskirts of the pond, laughing. Michael alternately pelted them with snow, and watched the spectacle before him.

On the pond, revelations were being discussed.

“Okay, explain to me how you’re so good at ice skating?” Justin huffed.

“Ice hockey. Best way to get back at the jocks in school,” Brian replied. “What I don’t get is, how the country club brat isn’t good at ice skating. Don’t they give you private lessons or something?”

“Or something. Good thing my ass is bouncy. Came in handy a lot.”

“So that’s how it got so big!”

You want me to apologize?

I *think* that's the first time I've seen that one...
