I have to use my Frog Brothers girlish screaming icon for this post. I just have to...

No, Keifer Sutherland is not pressing me to drink a bottle of wine with him (more's the pity), BUT, seriously - something else just as amazing happened to me today:

Remember back in the day when I told you I had splurged and got myself this amazing work of art by the fabulous [livejournal.com profile] stellamoon? Well, before I got it, I dithered for days about maybe getting this one, too, because I love it so much. But I didn't. Swearing that I'd save my pennies, I would revisit Coming Home, perhaps for my birthday.

Well, a few days ago, while the other half of my brain ([livejournal.com profile] cassie_black12) and I were discussing yet another piece by [livejournal.com profile] stellamoon, I went over to have a look at Coming Home again and what did I see? It had been SOLD! HOW DARE THAT HAPPEN?!!!

And this evening I found it sitting on my dining table, beautifully wrapped in Christmas paper - a present from the world's best beta, the Blackadder of Lawrence High School, Mrs J-L Piccard herself, [livejournal.com profile] delphipsmith!

Thank you, thank you, most awesome of friends!

And thank you, [livejournal.com profile] stellamoon, most awesome of artists (and gift-wrapper:)

I know - good thing she didn't base her gift-giving on how much I've asked of her as a beta.

Hey, when you've known someone as long as you and I have known each other, you're entitled to splurge once in a while, right? Consider it payback for introducing me to a) HSU and b) this place -- you can return the favor by writing more H/D smut, heh heh heh. BTW, I had originally picked out a different one but when I told her it was for you, she said, "Ooh, I think she'd really like THIS one" -- so you can also thank her for suggesting it :)

Yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay!!!! It finally arrived! I'm so glad you liked it! And delphi wanted it wrapped pretty, so I put extra effort into that! LOL!

*sigh* It's really kinda unbelievable just how long it takes to ship something to you! :(

This winter has been awful for that. Am STILL waiting on Rai's book and that was sent ages ago from down the bloody road. USUALLY, stuff is here in about 3-7 days. Now it's 3-7 weeks! You'd think I lived on the bloody moon!

Oh, and my daughter is making all sorts of nice stuff with the wrapping paper:)
