Hello, internet. I am at work. It is awful. In case you were curious.
There are only two things I actually need to do today, and with no boss (and no boss' boss), I am mostly sitting here trying to look busy, counting down the minutes until it is time to meet
chiasmus for lunch. WAFFLES WILL BE MINE. Or maybe pancakes. I'm not sure this place does waffles.
ANYWAY.
Last night I had a Zombocalypse dream for the first time ever, starring me,
mcwonthelottery,
brilligspoons, I think someone else, and Brendan. Also present in this dream: the manager of the Starbucks I go to every day. He was working at the diner that we stopped at in our roadtrip (?) during which the zombocalypse happened. He warned us to escape once it started and noticed the signs way before anyone else. I WAS GLAD TO HAVE HIM IN MY CORNER. He'll get a nice tip at Christmas this year.

I was going to spend all day reading/writing fic since I already told Doug on our coffee run that I had nothing to do, but now one of the AVPs is sitting at Doug's desk while he runs data for her, so I have to look busy-ish, and also I can't concentrate on any of my WsiP.
SPEAKING OF READING FIC: there is an XMFC fic that's been posted where Erik is the Heat Miser and Charles is the Snow Miser and I AM SO EXCITED AND ALSO SO SCARED. (No caffeine pills necessary, even!) Initially, I mis-read it as rated E, so I figured I'd have to skip it at work, but upon closer inspection, it's only T, so I might try it? WE'LL SEE. I have to wait until Gina leaves, at least.

Okay, well, I started writing that this morning and since then I have eaten lunch with Lindsay (I miss her--we're the same kind of bad person and it's always nice to air out my fandom laundry) and read the Heat Miser!Erik/Snow Miser!Charles fic (it was really cute!) and wasted a lot of time not doing much. I am obsessed with
this picture and have made it the lock screen on my phone. In about half an hour, I have to run across the street and pick up a pie. And eventually, I get to go home.
UGH, WHY IS THE DAY DRAGGING SO MUCH?

Here is a link to a John/Rodney vid that I really like and rediscovered last night and told
chiasmus about at lunch today:
I Do the Dumbest Things For You ***
OKAY. I'm going to write now. Maybe. Or do the
secret_mutant mod post I should probably do just in case. Maybe.
