Miles, Yule, a Desktop, Smooches

[scarylullabiez]

Happy Holidays, everybody! (p.s. Since the beginning of all this *fingerquotes* controversy, I have said that if the issue is what they say in commercials and at stores as you leave, then hey, businesses have the right to try to expand their business, which is really all they are interested in. The degree to which they care what you think is directly proportional to how much money you spend. [grammar check, anybody?] Don't expect them to have strong Christian morals, or any other kind of morals. They don't care. They are trying to sell you shit, and if they think "Happy Holidays" whill accomplish that more effeiciently that "Merry Christmas," then that's is what they are going to say.) Yule was good, lots of weeping, and in the morning, I had my usual morning-after-Yule religious feelings that no one wants to hear about.

My Papa has ordered MIA-type bracelets for us, in memory of Miles. MamaGoddess is going to help Flora Pecosa buy a heart pendant that holds a bit of his ashes. Both of these things make me very happy.

Last night, I made an animated gif desktop of glorious boiporn, which I am posting here as well as @ aras_graphix, because no one goes to that blog, and I'm so proud of this desktop that I have to post it, on account of I made it with virtually no knowledge of how imageready works, but I think it looks damn good anyways. (All appropriate credits and props, cuz I had lotsa help with it are here.) Also because I made it with virtually no knowledge of how imageready works, I can't get any of my usual hosts to host it. So I YouSentIt. It shall be my present to all LJ, especially elrondio, who is the mostest special, and lien_the_lost, who is the only one of my beloved wives who loves me enough to go see the boiporn with me, and the only one who is currently giving me lovin' on the internets. *holiday smooches to all*
