featherynscaleThis morning we woke up early early to celebrate the Festival of Grumbling at ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
agrnmn, otherwise known as greeting the sun at solstice. Fortunately, this year's festivities included very tasty cinnamon rolls, which ensured that the celebrations did not descend to too much violence. The sun was duly sung to (the hymn of choice being The Beatles' "Here Comes the Sun" again this year, partially inspired by my hair), fires were lit (and went out, and were lit again), gifts were given, and snarkiness was shared. All was mostly well in the land of early fricking morning.
So happy solstice to all of you who feel that the solstice is a thing worth celebrating.
Here are a few more alleged presents that I stole from other LJ-friends and now pass on to others:
Foriron_clad, Kung Fu porn (by way of sannion). (Not Work Safe, obviously.)

"Not a morning person" doesn't even begin to describe it.
