2012, really?
How is it the second week of January already? I swear, my perception of time is seriously messed up.
Anyway, I hope everyone's had a good holiday, or a good time off anyway. Mine was so-so, but, family issues aside, it was mostly because December squeezed all energy I had left out of me. I was at work alone practically all month, as my father first had to help out at our tiny production shop (an important project got delayed and every pair of hands counted) and then, as soon as that got done, he promptly caught a nasty flu that took him out of comission for the rest of the month.
So, all of December up until Christmas I worked 8-4 days alone (when usually I work 9-4 and there's at least one more person there). By the time Christmas rolled in, I was more than exhausted (and so very much sleep deprived). Thank god for online shopping. Then I was at my parents' for over a week, barely online, and now I'm editing two more crappy books and reaching the exhaustion point again.
So yes, that's my excuse for not being online much lately.

Speaking of Christmas -
viridian5, thank you for the card and the lovely photo. It's fun to have a glimpse of NYC on my desk :)
moogle_tey... thank you so much, ILU *HUGS*
I'm sorry I haven't sent any cards this year (see above why). I'll make it up to you somehow, soon-ish :)

I miss proper winter. There's been only ONE snow day so far, and the temperature is constantly above zero, and it's raining, ew. I don't remember the weather ever being like this. It's making me feel so unsettled. This is Poland, ffs, give me -10C and 40cm of snow ;__;

Basically, this is my life:
("All this motivation, to live through another day, week, month, I think it's thanks to TV shows")
Just so you know, I watch a lot of things, I'm just not very vocal about them. But I'll be happy if anyone wants to talk (spoiler-free) about any of the following.
Current(-ish) things:
- that I'm more or less fannish about: Haven ♥, The Vampire Diaries, Hart of Dixie ♥, A Gifted Man, Sherlock, Castle, Homeland, Revenge, Suburgatory, Suits. Also, Breaking Bad, but I've only watched the first season so far.
- that I watch because they are okay and make for good background noise: Once Upon a Time, Merlin, Rizzoli and Isles, Eureka, Warehouse 13, Pan Am
- that I used to love and can't seem to quit even though right now it hurts to watch them: NCIS, The Big Bang Theory, Chuck, Supernatural, Chuck, True Blood.
- that I'm watching because I'm obviously a masochist (where 'watching' includes a lot of fast-forwarding): 90210, Private Practice, Grey's Anatomy, House.
Old series I got into this last year:
Star Trek The Next Generation, Star Trek Voyager ♥, Star Trek Deep Space Nine (I'm 2 seasons in), Better Off Ted (why only 2 seasons, why ;_;). I'm also on my second attempt to finally watch all of X-Files.
I just realized I need A LOT of new icons :)
eta: I'm going back through my friends list as far as LJ will let me, so some people might get a comment from me on old posts, sorry:P
