Share your favorite holiday song.
A shameful, hands-down winner:
Honestly. As a rule, I dislike holiday music. This is likely a side effect of having to hear it on the radio right after Thanksgiving. However, I usually get an odd rush of affection for Christmas music within a week of the actual holiday. It manifested itself in the ugliest way yesterday when I dug up this gem. I've heard the Jimmy Eat World version, but there is a special place in my heart for this, the original. Who can blame me? Look at that cover.
This is my not so secret guilty pleasure. I will save my Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney for playing tasteful in front of strangers. Lord, now I feel like I have to dig out an old Wham! record. I know I have it somewhere, right with the Whitney Houston and Deniece Williams. Sweet mercy, is 80s music 'oldies' yet?

Show us your favorite literary character.
I'm not sure if there was ever an easier answer to a question. It's the romantic in me. It's the girl who likes the asshole, not the nice guy. The Fitzwilliam Darcy rocks my world. I'll take the swagger. I'll take the hubris. I'll take the rudeness...and the slight goofiness...check out that picture of wet!Darcy!I wonder that this is more about my fangirlish tendencies rather than actual quality of character, and yet...I could pick Elizabeth Bennett, but no.
Mmm, although, another sentimental favorite that comes a far second to Darcy? Zhao Min from Jin Yong's Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber.
Here she is played by Kitty Lai in the 1984 TVB adaptation. She, I adore.
