Happy Belated Valentine's Day!

Happy belated Valentine's Day, people! Hugs all around!

Before I go any further, I urge anyone who has ever tried to explain how computers/ the internet/ email works to a beloved but clueless so-and-so to watch this video. Particularly if you love books. Because even books were new once, too.

In other news, I have been feeling SO loved this week.

Firstly, last weekend the current incarnation of the youth group I help out with decided to take on cooking for me as a kind of charity project this week. Why? Because while I love eating, I hate cooking. Hence my chest freezer: I cook lots at once and store it. But I haven't done a big cook in a while, and so I've been living entirely too much off fast food lately. So the kids and co-leader (who loves cooking) got very enthusiastic at the prospect of making me food, and no number of protests on my part would deter them. I'm equal parts touched and embaRrassed. No, actually, while I am embarRassed (I thought I'd only get meals made for me by friends if I were deathly ill or really old! But no, I'm not incapacitated, merely incompetent), I'm mostly just really, really touched. And as I well know from my old job that there are people out there who need food way more than I do, I'm also making a donation to a certain local perishable food recovery program in their name.

Then, twistedhip and Splink surprised me on Wednesday night with flowers! Just for being me! Aw! I've still got the warm fuzzies from that one.

And then audreyovisual, bless her, has taken it upon herself to hook me up. So she's been trolling the web looking for local Supernatural folk for me. Thanks hon!

And Kripe clearly loves me (and all of us), because he gave us Tall Tales this week. And how great was THAT?

In summary. All you wonderful people in my life, new and old? You rock! *hugs*
