Update-ish?
I realize I haven't posted in a while. This is for a number of reasons:
1. The semester is winding down. This is good. While I'm slightly more busy trying to get all of my students doing what they need to do to pass, everyone is happy that things are almost over. Nightmare student is being cool enough not to bother me. Soon she will be out of my life forever. *twirl*
2. I'm ridiculously re-invested in Mad Men. scribefigaro and I watched season 2 on Netflix and it's as good as (if not better than) season 1. I won't even come close to fanfic-ing this show (the desire to do time-traveling self-inserts would prove too tempting), but it's really fucking good. Peggy Olsen is my new hero.
3. scribefigaro and I watched the anime Soul Eater. It took a hell of a lot of episodes, but I finally got into it. The writers/animators finally pushed my shipping buttons (sacrificing body and life for your partner: YES PLEASE). I've spent the better part of the last week reading Soul/Maka lemons (shut up, they're at least older teens in my head canon), some of which are insanely good. (Fanfic author rec: Marsh of Sleep. I promise to eventually get around to commenting to tell her how much I love her smut.)
4. I love Twitter. I don't know how this happened. I scorned it for so long. But I love it now. It's kind of like drabbling. You have a word/character limit and you have to pack the biggest punch you can. AND CAPSLOCK IS AWESOME THERE. I try not to abuse it with all of my random thoughts/rants/complaints, but I love reading everyone's tweets. Posting there also makes it seem redundant to post here, too. I will try and figure out a happy medium for both.
5. What else? Life and marriage is great. scribefigaro starts his new job next week and it's been terrific having him around so much.
6. Easter is awesome if for no other reason than Cadbury Eggs. OM NOM NOM.
7. It is late and I should go to bed. Really. I'm so lazy and slept in too late today. This will probably be bad later.
8. G'night!
