December already?

I am once again doing the WIP challenge at writethisfanfic this month, and the good news is I forced myself to work on the story last night. The bad news is, I took out more words than I put in, so I am starting off with a negative word count. Hopefully I'll be making up for that by this weekend. Which reminds me, we don't know the December fic_rush weekend yet, do we? I think I'm going to need it again to pull me out of this hole I keep putting myself into.

Not doing Yuletide, but I did hang up a stocking at fandom_stocking. It seems like a fun community, although it does feel a little awkward to advertise my stocking -- like I'm shilling for gifts or something. However, since there are umpteen gazillion stockings, I will go ahead and point mine out for any of you who are so inclined as to stop by: my stocking is here.

I've been going through the extras on the S5 boxset, and so far I am disappointed by the commentaries and the video diaries. Although it was slightly amusing to see the in-vision commentary for Time of Angels and notice the amazing amount of awkwardness between Steven Moffat and Karen Gillan. Can we please get David Tennant back in there, just for a commentary or two? Or Colin Baker? I bet he'd have some great things to say. So would Peter Davison. In fact, I think I'm going to have to go re-rent Arc of Infinity to remind myself of what a good commentary sounds like.

Hope everyone's December is going well so far, and to those of you who celebrate, happy Hanukkah!

OMG, those are chocolate-covered! I've only seen the powdered sugar ones here, and they didn't have anything extra on top. Do they all have jelly inside, or are there different fillings?

Different fillings! The chocolate covered had chocolate fillings! There was also some with er.... my dictionary says dulce de leche. Caramel-y stuff. And pistachio, vanilla, cream... it's like Berty Botts ever-flavour bean, but tasty and with loads of chocolate :) They also do the classic jam and sugar ones, but I think we're all bored to death with them, really... ;) Except for my boss! He got a classic one.
