    IN WHICH HAPPY BOXING DAY!
    I meant to post while it was still Christmas (CST) but as usual I’m late. I hope my few remaining readers had a lovely holiday! Here’s a song that’s been in my head lately.

    Chuu is one of those who, according to her coworkers, really is just a ball of sunshine. Follow me past the jump.

    IN WHICH I LACK BURRITOS
    No, really. I haven’t been by my local burrito place in a long time, partly due to my mother, so I haven’t been able to get good inspiration for another Burritoverse story. Sorry. For now, enjoy my favorite J-Pop group NiziU.

    IN WHICH SCREW DEADLINES
    Hey, y’all. Been a few months. Whoever reads this, just wanted to show I’m not dead yet. Do you know NMIXX? You should.

    Right. Now, where was I? Oh, I’m sure I’ll figure it out below the jump.

    IN WHICH I LIED TO YOU (SORRY)
    So… Turns out it's been a full year (!) since my last story. I promised a couple stories in between but failed to finish them. But at least I got my annual Mayor Mare story in. Have some Twice as penance.

    More past the jump, if you're willing.

    IN WHICH I LIVE… SORT OF
    Hi. Been awhile. Not sure who's left to read this. I just now realized I accidentally added an "L" on my last 3 posts. Oops. Well, enjoy Sir Elton.

    So, after fixing my screw-up, let's get to the meat of why I'm writing, if you'll pass the jump with me.

IN WHICH SH!T DON'T HIT
We had a little dusting of snow last night. Only an inch, but it was enough to cause a delay in school start-time because The South. Northerners make fun of us for shutting down in even light winter weather. To them I say: It's not stupidity… at least not this time; it's economics – when winter is so rare (and getting rarer thanks to the global warming my fellow Southerners believe in about as much as they do evolution: that is, not at all) there's no incentive to invest in expensive plows, de-icers, snow tires, etc. It's the trade-off.

I've been "enjoying" the snow by staying indoors, drinking Mexican hot chocolate, and watching more Cowboy Bebop. Now about 2/3 through and it's still as good as when I first saw it 15 years ago. Like Roger Ebert said – it's not necessarily what you say, but how you say it.

Speaking of which, it's been a couple days now, so I guess I can say this – I'm very disheartened by how my latest Dazzlings story has been received… or rather, ignored. It always sucks when a story you put effort into doesn't get the attention you feel it deserves. I swear I'm capable of writing things besides depressed Sunset Shimmer!

This site really needs a way to indicate prequels (like it already does with sequels).
