(no subject)
Last week was...well, a lot happened. Good and bad, as makes up life, but lots of things. I'm in no mood to dwell on the bad, as that's counter-productive, so I'll simply be highlighting...whatever I can remember.
Due to real life and weather, husband_brother and I weren't able to see as much of each other as we'd wanted. Tuesday night we ended up going out for some Chinese food, and then heading back to her place to hang out with her sister (who I have dubbed the Green Pixie) and her boy (the Katamari King). Yes, they have official nicknames now! We watched TV, smoked, chilled, the usual. And had epic moving discussion.
I am not going to be talking about house hunting or the upcoming move.
Weather moved in about the middle of the week, so I wasn't doing so great. I did manage to scrub the bathroom (hurray!) and get some other stuff done, but I spent most of the wet bout in a medicated haze. It was nice, though, and I did get a lot done. Friday was able to get together with the other half again, and we had a wonderful night. And watched the premiere of Haven!
I'm hooked on Haven. Love the cast, love the atmosphere, love the setting, love how despite King not working on the scripts, it's so very Stephen King. Which makes me happy. And I love that it's paired with Eureka.
Now I've been back to the grindstone, in every sense of the word! But I was tickled pink to get a very nice review on one of my fics this morning, made even more nice by the fact that someone Got one of my weird, random, semi-referential jokes-that-aren't-jokes. Usually they're so weirdly convoluted and/or obscure that they don't actually get picked up on. And not only did they get it, they considered it one of the greatest lines they'd ever read in a fan-work.
Why yes, I'll be riding high on that for a while!
