    Good morning, afternoon, and evening!

    We're doing some database and other light server maintenance this weekend (upgrading the version of MySQL we use in particular, but also probably doing some CDN work.)

    I expect all of this to be pretty invisible except for some small "couple of minute" blips as we switch between machines, but there's a chance you will notice something untoward. I'll keep an eye on comments as per usual.

    Ta for now!

    [personal profile] opalmatrix

    Thank you for writing me a story for Yuletide! My biggest request is no tragedies, no darkness unless followed by light. I think we could all use a little light and brightness in these times, and I in particular have mood troubles when the days are short. But, contrariwise, I am a definite believer in the idea that tensions or even pain make a sweet ending better, so go for salt caramel or even black licorice rather than cotton candy.

    Have some optional details about what I like and don't like in a story.

    Cut for LOTS of details )
