And, Jumble, its your fault. I ended up writing that sequel to Triming The Tree. (Truthfully it was written in my head days ago. I just needed to put th words in type which was... easier than I imagined so perhaps, I can do Charles' Crhistmas present after all. )
But if I have nothing for Martinmas, start of anyway it's all your fault.
I feel like I've been to a real party last night. And I didn't even have a drinkie.
Opening shot of Continuum - the first time I saw it I missed the very start (I think I picked it up just after they arrived on the ship in the Arctic so was a tad confuzzled by what was going on). But yes, when I did see it all the way through it was one of those shots that make you smile, nod and wish you had a masisve big screen Tv to watch it on.
Uhm, well wood you believe, after I posted the video.fic list on page 68, nobody posted after. II think there were a few additions but not much. I think we maxed out the fic and videos too early! So it's the last fic on this list:
I also added a new half/sort of video last night, just because it was already done.
Right, that's more or less my one and only post for GW for today. Tonight has been officially designated pressie wrapping night here so later is out, and I have my stepson and his wife over in... about now, for dinner (roast beef, roast tatties, roast parsnips, sprouts, Yorkshire pud and gravy... yum) so best get on with the actual cooking thingie. He told us last night he might be moving to New Jersey for his job! Couldn't be somewhere nice and warm like, oh, say California, or somewhere nice and Martiny like, say, Vancouver. Still, cheap holidays and all that.

Hey now! I'm half an hour away from the border of New Jersey. It's not so bad...the summer's are good...except ya know we actually have a winter. And at least it's on the east coast...less travel time back to the UK.
Aw Jann, I'm so jealous! Still no snow here
And your dog is soo cute
*runs back to PS* So much to do!!!
*hugs* You guys must be the only place in the country without snow! It's crazy up here. Was supposed to be going home for Christmas tonight but had to cancel because I don't think my sister will be able to pick me up at the other end!
Sorry I couldn't make it for Shipmas as well, as you will see yesterday was a bit of a momentous day in RL.
Massive OT News...
Spoiler:
So for the past few months I've barely been able to spend any time on the thread, but its not just that I've barely been able to spend any time doing other RL personal stuff, like keep up with friends and even spending time with Dave has been so difficult. I'm sure you guys are aware of this since I've been ranting about it for such a long time.
Over the past few days it got to the point where I was really struggling, and even feeling quite *depressed* though I hate to use the word. So yesterday after a lot of soul-searching I finally submitted my resignation. It was very emotional because I do still love the company and the people that work there, it's just affecting my personal life to the extent I can't carry on or keep doing anything like the hours I have been. My managers were amazing about it and said they completely understood. They have even offered to help me apply for other stuff, using my degree, as, really, what's the point of spending £20000 and three years to not use the thing.
I'm a little terrified since I don't have anything else lined up (and some pretty sizeable bills coming out in the next few months) but there are a couple of things I want to apply for, and if I don't get them then there's always temping! The bottom line is I'll be able to enjoy my life, spend time with loved ones and be around here a lot more often.
*Phew*
Just wanted to say thank you to everyone for the support over the past few months and weeks in particular. I kept thinking about what Cags said about not waiting for something drastic to happen to finally realise what matters .

*hugs everyone tight*
*feels a little emotional and slightly wibbly*
*masssssive squishy hugs Sarai* That's wonderful news! It may not feel like it since you've not yet got a job lined up, but no job is worth all that stress and misery
You'll find the right job soon, and in the meantime you can enjoy your freedom and relax a lot more
And spend more time here with us of course
Open a bottle of wine and celebrate, but make sure you sober up in time for the Martinmas party starting tomorrow
See look, Dan is pleased for you....
*squishy hugs again*
I'm off out for Christmas dinner at Anderson's tonight Actually going for three courses
