My copy of An Encyclopedia of Fairies arrived today!!! :D I keep feeling smug for talking my Anthropology professor into letting me do folklore for my independent study. (Now I just have to make sure that I don't screw up, but oh well.) Darn it, I wish Katharine Briggs was still alive! I would fangirl so fast. (Not that the person being dead has every stopped anyone from fangirling.)

That's right, where I live is buried in snow. It's like the Snow Queen showed up and decided to bitch-slap the state of New York. It's very pretty when you don't have to go outside. The wind was blowing insanely hard last night, so much so that I half-expected my house to begin spinning like a top.

I'm selling back my textbooks from this semester. It's painful (in the bank account) being an English major. This afternoon I took back books that cost about $80.00 at the beginning of the semester, and was given back $33.50. At least it'll pay for gas money and the last of my Christmas shopping. Thinking about the Briggs book cheers me up.

Hopefully I'll have posted at least one fan fic goody by the end of the month.

Gleeful

Aha! 300+ words written tonight on my on-again, off-again novel. (This thing has been going for almost five years now, and I'm not even halfway through. Must finish it.) I think it was all the snow this past weekend that got the Muse moving. Sorry to be a tease for not giving any details because I'm plan to have it published, but I couldn't resist being joyful.
