This is a take your pick post (have some recs)

This was originally a moan post about the bronchitis that has laid me up, the ever stranger pereginations of my family, and a bunch of other things. But, I feel like I've complained a lot this year, and I want to end things on a high note.

So on that note, I offer my traditional scurrying in late to be the last person ever to get round to doing a meme (it's definitely a tradition by now) and if you've made a post of your own, please do point me at it so I can spread/share the love.


holiday love meme 2015
my thread here



and I also include the happiness recs. Right now, as I metamorphosise into a person more tissue and soup than human, I gladly and freely acknowledge that apparently this is the Winchester brothers cuddling cats or being cats who then get cuddled. Most of these are pretty well known, but that's no reason not to share them again.

Care and Feeding - fools_game This is the jackpot of cuddling cat fic. Sam gets turned into a cat. There's several stories worth - it ends in Wincest, but the majority of the stories are gen. Sam's POV in this one
Scratch - lazydaze  touch deprivation + cats + quiet comfort. No more needs to be said.
Winchesters + cute cats - de-nugis  This time Dean gets a cat cuddle
When You Think He's Half Asleep - this is Dean as a cat, infuriatingly Dean. Fewer cuddles, but still enjoyable.
I did have more cat cuddling recs, but my inability to tag my bookmarks properly is biting back. I also don't know where I acquired this gif, so apologies for no credit, but it's very relevant

It's my current favourite gif, I just wish I knew where I'd got it from! And thanks, it just feels like 2015 has been stumbling from one thing to the next I guess.

Oh woman would you stop flapping your gums, lol! This year has pretty much sucked ass for everyone on here, and the one thing I've noticed with perfect clarity is no matter how much shit has rolled down hill onto your shoulders (or the other lady's) you have remained positive, cheery, welcoming and supportive. So you have *not* spent the entire year complaining! And we all stumble, but it's the steps that make the journey fun ;)

Oh no, bronchitis. D: You'd be well justified in complaining about that!

*sends hugs and cuddly cats*

♥ my eternal comeback illness. It clearly just loves my chest too much!!

Thank you for both - and I'm sorry about not being around to hear about the triathlon - how did it go?!

I survived just fine. ;-) Though it wasn't a timed race, and the cycling part was done on a spin bike (with me forgetting to keep track of the distance), so I have no idea how I'd fare in an actual thriatlon! But all in all it was a fun way to spend a Saturday morning.

It's the most adorable thing there is! I'm so glad you enjoyed the fics (and thanks for the good wishes!)

The bottom fic isn't linked. I may have clicked it repeatedly in the hopes that somehow, this time, the clicking would work.
