1005 now!

I also wrote a story and two pinch hits this year, and I ALSO am constantly reloading the grand tally and the stocking stuffers page impatiently.

Just an HOUR AWAY, RACHEL. And then it's the BEST CHRISTMAS PAGEANT EVER! Le big giant squee!

I don't know whether it's more like being nine years old and hoping there'll be a red bicycle under the tree, or being a jonesing junkie who sees her dealer coming up the stairs.

Whatever it is, it's GREAT!

I know! What will I look forward to AFTER an hour from now???

Reading a THOUSAND STORIES, that's what. We could stage the FANNISH ARABIAN NIGHTS, dude.

Now it's 1044!!!!! I am SO EXCITED! Although I will probably be away when it goes live because there are people here and I just had chocolate cheesecake which tasted good even though it was a disaster while I was making it.

SO EXCITED!

I wish I knew when it was going to go live! I was hoping to start reading now!

MEEEE TOOOOOOO. Especially now it is midnight and I have to get up in the morning.

How late can one stay up, hitting the refresh button every 5 minutes??

Raced home from the relatives--and first thing I did was check the Yuletide page. Woo!

1052! Wow!

It's 1:30 am on the east coast. Where are the stories?

Coding difficulties, apparently; they're saying it should be up soon. If it's not up by midnight my time I'm going to sleep. (I already took time out to fry up a pan of bacon, then throw in leftover Persian rice with cranberries. Tasty!)

Open! YAY!
