I finally went running again \o/ Far as I could see, I was symptom free of The Great Super Head Cold of 2018 by Thursday or Friday, and I was heartily sick of sitting around all day (I'm currently literally sitting around on my ass all day because I'm in an online culture management classfor the next five weeks. The class is pretty nice but it took ( Read more... )

Yes, this is the one in which I will talk about my exploits in the flu season. Which were illustrious. Or something.

( Here be gerrrrrrrrrrrrms. )

And I'm sorry for that ( Read more... )

I mean, I'm still stuck in a rut and don't really know how to get out (other than writing job application after job application but that's a story for another entry) but at least, we're finally in my favorite season! Berlin summer this year was... err... wet (actually, it was the wettest summer ever recorded here, not shitting you) and moderately ( Read more... )

Yesterday was reveal day at het_bigbang and as you might have noticed... my fic wasn't among those revealed. Nor will it be for the foreseeable future, because I had to drop out, I shit you not, two days before the deadline. As it happened, I actually made myself map out the remaining chapters a week before the deadline and then I realized I have still nine ( Read more... )

While Mom is forcing me to watch "Van Helsing" (why? WHY does this movie exist? Who looked at the script and thought "Yep, we're gonna pour a lot of money into this. Sounds like a capital idea."?), I can report that for the first time in four years I just sent away an application for an actual grown-up job (I don't think I'm gonna get it since they ( Read more... )

So, since I still haven't gotten around much of my paper (I did get some reading done, though, which is more than I did in the last year. Also, at least I now have some kind of battle plan for the paper, so yay!) due to, you know, being full of germs and stuff, there's not much to tell on that front (the germs seem to have been beaten into ( Read more... )

I'm preeetty sure that it'll the be the only real winter day we'll have this winter so to all the summer lovers, may I please indulge myself and unabashedly squee about the below zero temperatures und the heap of powdery snow that makes everything look like a giant baking fairy has been liberally sprinkling icing sugar on everything? Please? It's ( Read more... )

Yeah, I know, I promised to post more regularly but I've got a good excuse: ever since the beginning of summer, it's been just too damn hot (that's actually a lie, we did had a couple days with bearable temperatures. But the majority is not). And by "too damn hot" I mean eveything above 25°C (that's 77F in your weird temperature scale that doesn't ( Read more... )

It's been so long since my last entry that I'm pretty sure I used a different looking editor when I wrote it. Internet time is really scary.

Anyway, for anyone who's been wondering if I disappeared or fully fell down the tumblr rabbit hole and never made it back: don't worry, I didn't. I just didn't feel like anything worth reporting happened.

( Just stuff about stuff. )
