yuletide recs, aka mostly a giant dose of childhood nostalgia
I am slightly under the weather (along with nearly everyone I know). I am kinda crabby and I don't even feel like watching old gymnastics meets, which is generally my drug of choice when I'm sick. But here! Have some recs from this year's Yuletide that I bookmarked last week when I read them. I'm being lazy and posting them without "here is why you should read this" commentary because, well, I'm sick and crabby. *g*
