Various things.
Safe and sound at home (as of yesterday... or was it the day before?) after some drama with flights being missed and re-routed and staying up a ridiculous amount of hours and getting stuck overnight in the Edmonton Airport. Fun, fun.
I'm still too exhausted to talk about the trip itself, or to edit my photos, or anything. But it's safe to say that I had a damn good time. Now I'm just adjusting to being home again and catching up on sleep.
It's colder here than it was in Stockholm. We've had frost in spades, and most of the trees have dropped their leaves. Almost makes me wish I hadn't had to come back, on account've it being much warmer in Sweden. Grumble, grumble.
Finished a roleplay thread with Derp last night; that Norway/Netherlands one that we'd been doing. Excellent. It's always such a satisfying feeling, finishing a thread, especially one that's been going on for months.
The local bookstore's having a storewide sale, or so I heard, so I might mosey on down there today. I tend to buy my books online... when it's comics or nonfiction or stuff that recently came out. But for slightly older genre fiction, I like being able to hold it and flip through it before deciding, and there isn't so much of a price difference between offline and online with massmarket paperbacks, anyway. Maybe I'll pick up some more Jo Nesbø novels or something. I've been meaning to read the rest of his Harry Hole novels ever since I read The Snowman. We'll seeeeee.
I've been working on some indexing the past few days. Delicious is slowly putting itself back together, though who knows if it'll end up being the way that I like. Anyway, it's still sort of visually broken; one can't narrow bookmarks down by grabbing them from the sidebar as one did before. But if one uses the "type a tag" bar to narrow it down, it does work - provided that one knows which tags to use. The Nordex tags are mostly basic, so it shouldn't be a problem. I mean, it isn't that hard to figure out that if you're looking for Norway/Denmark stuff written in Part20, you use the "Norway" "Denmark" "Part20" and "Fill" tags. But, still. I might eventually write up a taglist or something and link it from the contact post (which... no longer shows up on the delicious taglist, fuck), since the "view all" tag option is not possible when viewing someone else's account. GDI, Delicious.
