Birthday and snippets

[luzula]

Thanks for the birthday wishes, people! I had a nice birthday--I was outdoors a lot, and then ate chocolate fudge brownie ice cream when I got home.

There are no leaves on the trees here yet, but the snow is mostly gone, except for some shadowy parts of the forest. The willows are flowering, and the bumblebee queens have woken up and are industriously harvesting the willow pollen. And I saw flowering Luzula pilosa (see my icon)!

Also, I wrote two little snippets--Closet, where Maggie and Frannie make out in the supply closet, and Roots, a little F/K/V snippet that totally surprised me. I, um, wrote it in ten minutes and then posted it. Probably I should've tried to get these beta-read before the deadline tonight, but it's my birthday and I was self-indulgent.

It's your birthday but we get presents? You are too good! Your birthday makes me wish I could create something wonderful as a gift. All I have is my undying admiration and gratitude!

Hee, well, the second snippet especially was like a gift from myself to myself (though I am happy to share it, of course). It just appeared full-formed in my head and made me all happy.

And thank you!

I'm glad you had a happy birthday. I needed a bit of break from... life, so I missed saying it on the day. But there is no one who deserves a happier year to come. I hope you get everything you wish for, plus a few good surprises.

(And I can't believe there's anywhere that still has snow. I am not cut out for Scandinavia. Clearly.)

Thank you! And no problem, it's not like I am the best person at remembering birthdays myself.

(Don't let the snow fool you--it's actually quite warm here right now. By which I mean 12 degrees Celsius = 53.6 degrees Fahrenheit. Also, we have lots of daylight!)
