A few notes...
On the world: there's approximately six tons of snow out there. Very pretty though, and the sky's just clearing to the west so we've got this clear yellow-and-baby-blue pre-sunset affair shining out over the snow. Went out to brush all the lumps of snow off the evergreens so they don't break from the weight and tromped about thinking about the Wintering and having revelations. (I've had several of those lately. Now to get off my chair-shaped ass and write.)
On work: I'm officially finished with my training--but my first Real Shift got snow-cancelled. What does that bode, I wonder? I've had all the skin sanitized off my hands and all my will to stand beaten out of my feet, and my back's been twinging like a piano, but I have a JOB, it's fun, and one of my cow-orkers rocks. Already made use of my employee discount to get myself one of those little moleskine notebooks, since it looked so nice and I finally found one unlined. Drooling over some of the more expensive blank books, but unable to justify thirty bucks for one. Getting some tips, even, though not much.
On Christmas cards: everybody in the fandom's been sending each other cards and it's so SWEET! But I felt I should blare out to the world why I haven't been giving out my addy and such, though I do want to: it's because I'm the biggest flake in the world with presents and cards, and I just know I'd never get around to sending anybody anything, but then I'd get a pile of stuff and feel crappy about it and it would suck. Don't mind me, just guilt-tripping myself in the corner.
On my emotional health: much, much better. Though Mum keeps acting like a flaming bitch and making me want to throw things at her.
On BPAL: I am SO behind on my reviews. Got a box of about twenty imps on my desk waiting for testing. I think today may be the day to check out Snow White though, oh yes... (So quite possibly brace for a deluge of BPAL reviews later in the day.)
