b) Waverly, Iowa does exist, and I have tried for accuracy in detail, but this version is fictional, and any resemblance to real people is purely coincidental. Especially since I have never been to Iowa.
c) I am completely ignoring the various timeline weirdness and decided to have Rossi, Gideon and Hotch on the team at the same time. If that or the dates bother you, just stop thinking about them. :)

The Shortest Day
By Susan Cooper
And so the Shortest Day came and the year died
And everywhere down the centuries of the snow-white world
Came people singing, dancing,
To drive the dark away.
They lighted candles in the winter trees;
They hung their homes with evergreen;
They burned beseeching fires all night long
To keep the year alive.
And when the new year’s sunshine blazed awake
They shouted, revelling.
Through all the frosty ages you can hear them
Echoing behind us - listen!
All the long echoes, sing the same delight,
This Shortest Day,
As promise wakens in the sleeping land:
They carol, feast, give thanks,
And dearly love their friends,
And hope for peace.
And now so do we, here, now,
This year and every year.
Welcome Yule!
This has been kind of a whirlwind year for me, and next year promises to be even moreso. So the "dearly lov[ing] their friends" part, I feel, is especially important. And that includes all you lovely Internet people. *big hug*

Yeah, not today. They're predicting at least a foot of snow from NoVa, through the Delaware Valley, up to NYC. Wind chill out there: 10 degrees. Not good for anybody, but especially us public-transit-taking folk.
Maybe tomorrow, if it dies down enough, but unlikely. Possible plan B: Artificial tree from Sears or Penney's? (I have insisted, if this happens, that it is to be proper Charlie Brown Christmas Pink. Damn straight.) But there will still be Christmas Cookie Making, so all is not lost.

Family Christmas is shaping up rather nicely. Translation: the two halves of my extended family are communicating and planning with minimal need for my diplomatic involvement. And there will now be a grand communal trip to the Christmas Revels on Boxing Day. Very sweet. Although I'm going to be incredibly homesick on the walk through Harvard Square to Sanders Theater. *cue Avenue Q's "I Wish I Could Go Back To College* But I don't miss college so much as I miss Boston. Thus, the Evil Grad School Plan.
Last new CM of the year tonight! Expect much squeeing and the usual write-up.
I am vaguely considering getting blonde highlights this weekend. Or possibly just my usual metal-magenta color. Y/N? Provide rationales.
Finally, because it is the source of my new McPrentiss fic-obsession, and damn it, I *do* deserve some shiny:
Comment to this post with an offer to write in any fandom that you or I have in common. I will answer with a prompt. Then, you will write me comment-fic, snippets, or whatever comes to mind. Now go post this in your own journal and demand fic of your very own! Make your flist work! You had a long week and you DESERVE it, dammit!
UPDATE: If I'm going to post this meme, I should probably include my shows, shouldn't I? bad E. No cookie.
