I deleted my Livejournal account. That felt weird. I don't think I've put more than one or two entries a year in since fandom moved to Tumblr, but once that was my main fannish source of info and interaction. I opened my account in 2002. Oh well. It's all archived over at Dreamwidth.
Speaking of things fannish, I woke up to 19 emails announcing authors I follow on AO3 had posted fic. That was a nice start to the year. Gaia bless Yuletide.
And I started the day with homemade Greek-style yogurt (yum), coffee, and 'Spurs football. Last night I played Firefly Clue (Jayne in the kitchen with a wrench), Doctor Who Yatzee and Bananagrams with a couple of friends while we waited out 2016.
Happy new year my bestistas
Hamiltistas, my friend's kid I met yesterday is named Eliza, and they haven't even heard the show! I tried to teach them how to sing her name properly....
I just remembered the visceral loathing I felt towards GWB and Cheney, especially as their administration went out. I couldn't bear to look at their faces. It's going to be worse.
I greet 2017 with a level of concern and fear above and beyond the Bush/Cheney advent. There was more foreknowledge of what we could expect from them. They were easier to anticipate and prepare for. I have no idea what will happen to my country and world in 2017. May they be completely dysfunctional and unable to accomplish any of their goals.

I love it.
I have coffeed and done as much mail prep as I am gonna do. I need to go measure the window, get a load of laundry in and get out the door.
Oh, I should do a laundry before heading out to family. But tomorrow is another day!

That's adorable.
Happy New Year, everyone.
... why did I agree to go to 8AM mass? Oy. I'm not even hung over, just still tired. Had to crate the dog when I went to bed because she was scared by the fireworks and kept trying to climb me.
I have measure the window pane, made a list and am heading out.
I forgot to add buy groceries to my to do list.
