he's sick of talking about his middle finger

Five things make a post:

- I went and picked up my bakery boxes this morning and had a very easy bus ride in both directions. The weather is surprisingly warm - I was way overdressed and sweating like a pig in the store while I waited for them to bring up my order.

- tomorrow I will go buy ALL THE NUTS and also the fruit to make these candies (I already have ALL THE CHOCOLATE). Here is the current plan:
no nuts:
  • cinnamon and coffee
  • raspberry
  • blueberry
  • cranberry orange
  • marshmallow
  • mint
nuts:
  • hazelnuts
  • almond cherry
  • macadamia nuts
  • cranberry pecan
  • peanut butter cups

I hope that's enough - I've got two new giftees on the list (they got other things last year) and also promised to bring some into work so I need to have a lot. I mean, last year it was a large amount too so I'm not that worried? But yeah. It's a lot.

- I'm still thinking about Rogue One, and gosh, I don't want to be that fan, but I'm also thinking a lot about Vader and these hilarious posts in light of some revelations in the movie (that last one is an update of the one I linked yesterday, all have Rogue One spoilers).

I don't know if I'm going to write fic with the Rogue One specific characters - I definitely need to see the movie again for that, I think - but I definitely want some backstory for all of them, so all y'all should get on writing that. (and I specifically mean Baze/Chirrut, Bodhi Rook, Jyn Erso, and Cassian Andor. I could not care less about any garbage space fascist who isn't Darth Vader.)

- I had anxiety dreams about work last night, specifically that I was let go without notice, and well, on the one hand, I'm on vacation so I don't want to think about work, but on the other, there are ~reasons I had that particular dream, I think, but I guess that should go under a lock, so at some point I will gird myself to write about everything that's going on at work. (Spoiler: as far as I know, in actual reality, my job is not actually in danger right now - at least not from the things I'm currently worried about and would be posting about [subnote: it's not anything I've done or haven't done; my bosses appear happy with me]; we get most of our funding from the Federal govt, so everybody's job is kind of in danger under the next administration, but that's not what's got me on edge right now.) Ugh, I hate to vague blog but the whole thing is too lengthy and boring to go into right now. If you remember my previous posts, it's the same situation but more of it.

- Attempt number 4 at this yuletide treat will be underway shortly. I know there's a story there, but so far I've started too early and too late and from the wrong angle, so hopefully this time I will have figured it out. *hands*
