*FLAILS ALL OVER*

I have many pressies today!!!!!

First my lovely Cleo sent me a SNAKEY NECKLACE!!!!  I will take pics soon.  It totally matches my snakey bracelet and snakey ring.  SOON I SHALL BECOME A SNAKE.  BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA  Yeah, shut up, I know I already am.  *pokes you smartasses*

Then nursedarry sent me a gift card so that I may purchase the Holy Beverage Chilling Unit (hereafter referred to as HBCU) which will make its grand appearance at next year's norwescon .  WHO IS COMING????  Put your drink orders in now.  :D :D :D

AND THEN star_sailor13  drew my LONG-AWAITED ART for Sparkle Sparkle Princesses, featuring Harry and Draco in dresses.  They are too gorgeous for words.  Just CLICKY CLICKY CLICKY!!!!

(I linked it to DeviantArt because then you can see the ones she already drew, including Millicent, Ron, Zach, and a random Ravenclaw.) 

*collapses with glee*

Oh hey, I've been offline nearly all day except for speed skimming the flist and checking email.  And I was pinged by saramargret who drew this fabulous scene from Hissy Fit.  I can't stop giggling - it's just so loltastic.  :D 

LINKY TO HER PAGE ON DA

This taking three days off and staying home thing - BAD IDEA.  I'm doing ALL THE THINGS and no writing and no endless surfing of LJ.  BOO TO THIS! 

*clings to flist*

I was supposed to organize a get together in Seattle tomorrow, but yeah... all the things.  FAIL. 

Please to be ignoring my loopiness and just go look at some art, okay? 

Also, NEARLY ALL THE GLOMPFEST PROMPTS ARE CLAIMED!  You guys should go look at the rest.  *pokes*

GLOMPFEST PROMPTS

How much do we love red_rahl ?  MORE THAN HARRY LOVES DRACO, IF THAT CAN EVEN BE MEASURED.  :D :D :D :D

There can never be enough H/D kissing, can there?  *blissful sigh*  (Clicky the pic for the whole thread and the adorable chibi art that started it.  HER CHIBIS ARE SO FREAKING CUTE.)

Also, WTF is up with LJ now? It took me six tries to load a POST screen that wasn't wonked out.

HELLO, AWESOME FRIENDS!  *waves happily*  I have many announcements.  Firstly, it was brought to my attention by someone I dragged over here from ff.net that Livejournal can be confusing.  It can be at first, but don't be scared.  Here are some places you need to visit if this is your first foray into the awesomeness that is the H/D verse here, although some of them are not H/D inclusive.  (If I missed any, please to be adding them in the comments!)

hd_fanart (so much awesome art!)
hd_quidditch (fun game based on your H/D knowledge)
hp_game_night (EVERYONE SHOULD PLAY THIS GAME.  It's weekly.)
harrydraco (The main comm for H/D - most fics are art are cross-posted here.)
accio_hd_fics (If you're looking for a specific fic or even general searches.)
hd_artseekers (If you're looking for specific art or even general searches.)
arse_seekers (so very NWS)
insaners (I don't even know how to describe this.  XD)
wizards_weekly (A fun new comm that needs more loveage.)
serpentinelion (an awesome site that recently featured Glompfest - of particular interest for lurkers.)
hd_prophet (daily zine that lists fics, art, fests, and happenings daily in the H/D universe.)
gunshandcuffs (recently listed 250 must-read H/D fics for your reading pleasure)

LOL!  And if you're interested in the fests held by our amazingly active fandom, vaysh11 has compiled this tiny list:
H/D fests in 2011 (so far)  *dies laughing*  WOW.

That should take you awhile.  While you're busy, I'll blather on about other things, such as the fact that ARTISTS ARE THE BEST THINGS EVER.  Please to be checking out this fabulous art by my lovely friend savagesnakes (who used to be fauxdisco and since I told everyone to friend her with that name, please to be friending her under her new name since she's not posting over there anymore, etc.) who drew THIS scene from The Incredible Race.  LOLLING FOREVER.

And if that wasn't awesome enough, my darling ile_o  of Wayward Owls fame has drawn OMFG PORN for her COLOURING BOOK (and isn't that the most astoundingly brilliant idea ever?) and she is asking for ideas for what to draw next.  She wants to know what scenes from my fics people want to see and I HAVE NO IDEA, GEEZ.  So, please to be submitting snippets of anything you would love to see in ile_o 's colouring book and then we can have a VOTE.  FOR SURE I would love and adore a wingy Draco from Chains of Earth because there can never ever be enough Wingy Draco.  Not ever.

Also, thank you to ldydark1 , bootsy_mine , nimielle , being_here , and my beloved cleo_jay  for my V-gifts!!!!  *SNUGGLES ALL AND POSSIBLY GROPES INAPPROPRIATELY AS WELL*  

EDIT: One of my OVER 18 friends cannot view comms with Explicit Adult Content.  ANY IDEAS? 

ZOMG LOOOOOOOK.  I am the luckiest person on the entire planet.  *SQUEES MINDLESSLY*  My fabulous new friend fauxdisco  came out into the cold wet icky day and brought me ART.  The scan doesn't do it justice, unfortunately, since it was slightly bigger than the glass and some of it got cut off, but you can see the AMAZINGNESS THAT IS HARRY OMG!   AND DRACO'S EYELASHES.  I just... I can't even.  *speechless drooling*

( Harry and Draco )

I think this is her first H/D pic. I admit I was babbling like a psychotic and probably shouldn't have had that coffee, AND OMG SHE BROUGHT ME CHOCOLATE WITH TORTILLA CHIP, LIME, AND SALT. I KID YOU NOT. It's made of GUUUUUUUH.  Anyway, be sure to give her massive levels of loveage and shamelessly coax her to draw more gorgeous boys for us!!!!!!!

I've had a wretched afternoon full of emo and then I get home and kick back for awhile and watch Joel Burns video and get even MORE emo and then THIS IS POSTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ART FOR ME FROM HD ARTFEST!!!  FOR MY CHAINS OF EARTH PROMPT!!!  Honestly, is there anything better than WINGY DRACO to cheer a person up?  I DON'T THINK SO.

Please to be clicking and give the lovely anon artist some massive amounts of loveage and try not to lick your computer screens, because UNF he is very lickable.

Dear artists on my f-list:  I LOVE YOU SO FUCKING MUCH YOU HAVE NO IDEA.  *FLAILS*  You have been posting so MUCH lately!!!!  I APPROVE OF THIS!!!!

I have this ADORABLE pic from shiyasim that now requires ficcage because it's so amazing that it inspired plotbunnies galore.  :D

ARTIST MERLIN!

Also, even though draykonis is no longer in fandom, it's only because she's decided she needs her own fandom and has set out to establish one with her own comic series.  I am now quite addicted to it and can't wait to see where it's going. 

CRYSTAL SPECS

THERE IS SO MUCH OTHER ART POSTING THIS WEEK THAT I CAN'T BEGIN TO LINK IT ALL.  GO, SURF, LEAVE LOVE!

And we have OMG so much art for Smoochfest I can hardly stand the wait.  NEXT TUESDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  WOOT!

DAMN, how much do I love it when this woman stays up to the wee hours of the morning?  I don't recall her ever breaking the porn barrier, however... until now.  WOOT!!!
