Adjusting to the new schedule...

[moominmuppet]

Started the new schedule this week -- 3pm-11:30, with W/Th off, instead of Sa/Sun. So far so good, although I'm at work today due to a scheduling screwup on Sunday. I'm really low-energy at the moment, especially socially, so I'll probably be a bit hermity for a while. The visit with tasharowan was great, but now I'm doing the introvert-recovery thing that I need after even the most low-maintenance visitors. And it's Olympics right now anyway -- Bec and I have a longstanding obsession there, and I'm spending almost all my free time catching up on each day's events. I can rant about the socioeconomic impacts of the Games, and all the suspect cooptation of _everything_ with the best of them, but I still do love to watch people hurl themselves down from ridiculous icy heights with incredible skill, so we mostly save the political critique and alternate between cheering and gratuitous costuming/commentating snark instead.

Grafton and Casey have never seen Time Bandits. It's now on order, and I intend to rectifying this glaring omission forthwith.

Linkety-linkety post may be coming, depending on whether rewatching the second half of Hogfather distracts me thoroughly or not.

Ooooo! I haven't seen that either. Let me know when there is a viewing and I'll try to be there. :)

Probably this coming Wednesday, if it gets here in time!

Wait... What?! How did I miss this development?

You have not seen???? Oh, my. And it's BBC, too.

Hogfather is just spot-on in my opinion, but Color of Magic definitely doesn't suck. So worthwhile. Excellent cheery stuff for bad days, in my experience.

I should do something very extroverted and vengeful to you. Honestly, I'm too tired. So, I think I'll transfer you to the undergrowth department, brackens, more shrubs, that sort of thing... with a 19% cut in salary, backdated to the beginning of time.
