Happy New Year's, friends!

In 2009,

ghanistarkiller resolves to...

Cut down to ten movies a day.
Tell my family about ben barnes.
Start a bronte sisters fund.
Take evening classes in doctor who.
Go to 10th kingdom every Sunday.
Go to the renaissance faires every month.

Christmas--and indeed the whole of the Christmas season really--was a nice, quiet affair. We sat around, we ate some good stuff (thanks to my brother's shiny new food stamps card) and we watched lots and lots of movies.

jadeblood visited this past Tuesday, squee! We had a wank-alicious time (or rather a fandom wank-free Supernatural gushing session! XD) and I learned the fun new phrase "jizz jar!" XP I swear, I'll never, ever look at the Sleeping Beauty story the same way again. Ever! 0_o

But that brings me to the most important thing that happened: I realized just how lucky and genuinely grateful I am for all of the fantastic people I've met on the internet. I've met quite a few of you in person, and have yet to meet quite a few more (I will get some of you to an HH gathering that I'm attending, I resolve it for the New Year! XD) New fandoms have come and gone (some in the same year, like Moonlight and Jericho--oh, how I loved you, you were snatched away from me too soon, both of you--or just showed up in time for the New Year, like Merlin. But my friends, those of you who I've met through those fandoms, those of you who I've known for ages who were into those fandoms, those of you I've met in one fandom and then found out that we have other fandoms in common, and those of you I've just plain known forever: I love you all and am so happy y'all are in my life!

And thank you, thank you, thank you to

snowlullaby for my beautiful Christmas gift: my new Lancelot header! Squee! *Is love!* And

jadeblood for my two wonderful Xmas gifts on IJ! Huggles!

To come: A full report on Jade's visit and my guide to our movie marathon complete with reviews!

Peace, Ghani
