See icon. Is that not one of the most adorable things ever? OK, you probably have to be a Whovian to really appreciate it, but that photo has been making me smile all day, which is quite an accomplishment for a random day in March.

It hasn't even been that crappy of a month, compared to most Marches of the past few years. Still, the funk has settled ( Read more... )

So sleepy this morning. My eyes were leaden this morning when the alarm went off and so tired and resistant to opening that I haven't put my contacts in yet. Does not bode well for the 5:30am work start time tomorrow. In any case, there's a few items making me at peace with the universe for the moment...

1) My fangirl-yet-fair review of the Game of ( Read more... )

I got all freaked this weekend because my Game of Thrones bluray pre-order had not shipped. "But how will it get here by Tuesday?" I pondered. Yet, for once, the universe had my back. 2pm Monday afternoon and behold:

I find it helpful to give another go to the Five Thankful list when I'm not doing so well. So here we go:

1) Tea. When I'm sick (like now) it sustains me. I don't really need much food, but I can drink gallons of tea.

2) A quiet apartment. Unless you're my mom and/or awaiting to serve my every whim, I'd rather be alone when sick and miserable. This ( Read more... )

I really want to do another edition of Music I'm Currently Obsessed With... except I jump every couple days to something new. That and 90% of it would be Darren Criss tunes (whether he sings them or wrote them).

However, I must give a shout out to The Vampire Diaries for pushing me to a 'new' song by The Civil Wars. I hadn't really gotten into ' ( Read more... )

After the overall snooze-worthy Oscars last night, I've spent a bit of time this morning watching trailers for films I'm actually excited about. (And a couple viewings of the newest Game of Thrones trailer for good measure... more geeking on that in a minute.)
Of everything I'm stoked for (including The Raven, Brave, the Snow White movie with Bella ( Read more... )

Made it through the first five pages last night in editing. It would have been more, but Aladdin was on and I cannot bring myself to not watch that movie*. I've already noticed a shift in the quality of writing from the very initial draft of book one, which gives me a confidence boost. There's already a major plot hole and some fill-in scenes that ( Read more... )

Finally got off my proverbial ass yesterday at work and began formatting book two of The Novel Series and printed it off for editing. It now sits dauntingly on my desk, which incedentally really needs to be de-cluttered ( Read more... )

A little moment of getting to know me, boring though it will be ( Read more... )

I'm starting to wonder if reading page after page of threads on ASoIaF theories counts as reading book pages, because damn these things are in depth. Most of them require me to go do research on other sites to remind me of every person/event/history being discussed. It's crazy!
Crazy AWESOME!

I know I should be reading other books (or continuing my ( Read more... )
