Musical Advent Calendar: Day Eighteen

I love Joan Osborne. It's a guilty pleasure. Today's songs are from her Christmas album, "Christmas Means Love", which came out in 2007. The first, "Children Go Where I Send Thee", is a pretty faithful version of the traditional spiritual. The second is that most creepy of traditional carols, "The Cherry Tree Carol", aka the song wherein Joseph's kind of a hater, Mary's one of those pregnant chicks, and unborn baby Jesus is kind of creepy.

My sister and I had a pretty big fight last night. Then we made up via a series of text messages. I am exhausted this morning as a result of being up too late and yelling a lot. And I have to go back over there in an hour to watch her kids so she can work out, because her husband's still out of town. We have a very codependent relationship.

After that I need to get those costumes started, then I have an early dinner with the Weirdo Writers, then I go back to my sister's to help with the kids some more. I put in for next Thursday off work, because I am seriously never going to finish these costumes by Christmas. Though if I do, I will win Most Popular Present Of the Season, so I'm motivated. (What? It's totally a contest.)

Also this morning, I got to clean cat vomit off my couch. My couch. God. I'm so over the cat vomit, you guys.

ExpandA list of current writing projects that will require my attention once the costumes are done. Cut for your ignoring pleasure. )

Fic: The Art Of Digression (Glee RPS, Mark Salling/Chris Colfer, NC17)

Title: The Art Of Digression
Fandom: Glee RPS
Pairing: Mark Salling/Chris Colfer
Rating: NC17
Summary: Chris likes to act like he eats up the drama of Kurt's storyline, but Mark can see when the stress starts to get to him.
A/N: This all started when I accidentally read an article where Chris talked about eating cookies to deal with the stress of his current storyline. How I got from cookies to Mark Salling porn is anybody's guess. With many thanks to [personal profile] cinderlily for the hand-holding and reassurance. AO3 link, if you prefer.

ExpandIt doesn’t take long for the stress of Kurt’s storyline to start wearing on Chris. )
