(no subject)
After a nice eight hours of sleep I'm... still tired. :p This is what happens when you get two hour long naps in the space of 36 hours. :p But there can be no rest for the weary. I need to pop into the lab after Spec to take an aliquot of my latest reaction and hope it's something good. Then I have to dash to the grocery store because the murder mystery is tonight and it's the most ridiculously specific potluck I've ever seen. I was assigned to bring Spanish rice. I looked up the recipe and it calls for all sorts of disgusting things that aren't in my kitchen because they're icky. That's right. I'm bringing an item to a potluck that I have NO INTENTION OF EATING. Figure THAT one out. :p Then it's home to prepare the aforementioned item and then off to the murder mystery, which should be fun. After that it's midnight madness, so I can continue Christmas shopping. Wonder how many people on my list I can actually take care of in Sackville. Bloody hell, I need to get an anniversary present for Ryan too.
This weekend doesn't get any saner, either. Saturday I'm meeting my group to work on Spec lab reports, which seems to be all I ever do sometimes. Then it's anime and home to sleep. Sunday we have rehearsal, surprise surprise. Not to mention the fact that I need to work on a bunch of presentations because next week is my three presentations in four days week. I want to at least get a start on my Quantum paper too, which can coincide with working on my Quantum presentation. :p And there's the spec assignment that was due Wednesday that I'm still trying to finish.
All this work is certainly making it clear that it's November. The weather certainly isn't. It's RIDICULOUSLY warm out today. We're talking, like, May weather. The only sign of the approaching winter is that the evil wood has started to appear. It's not on any of the stairs yet, but they have it on the way into Crabtree. I'm in fourth year and I STILL have no clue what the purpose of the evil wood is. :p
Fic rec! Fic rec!
Notes on a Fridge is the most hilarious Firefly fic type thingy, like, EVER. The link goes to part 6, but there's a link to the first five there. It's a series of lists and notes left on Serenity's fridge by the crew. Shopping lists, sign up sheets for getting shot, lost and found and the duty roster. Lots of comments between the crew and doodles in the margins. Every installment kills me with laughter. Also, Kaylee's handwriting is the same font that I use for a lot of stuff involving Sandman!Death, which amuses me to NO end.
Actually, Death and Kaylee would get along EXTREMELY well. That much cheerful in one room might get kinda scary though.
...
This is turning into a plot bunny. But first I need to write my silly "My Parents Gave Me A Stupid Name" support group fic. Any suggestions for characters who would join?
