Yuletide 2012 (apparently Yuletide is the short version of “While We Tell of Yuletide Treasure Fanfiction Challenge,” which I definitely did not remember) is like a vortex. A vortex that eats time.

(*where ‘today’ actually means ‘Monday, but I got distracted.’) This kid I once knew, by Minnow (Calvin & Hobbes) Susie in college, finding Calvin’s comic strips online.
