+ I got a totally random, out-of-the-blue phone call from a coworker today, in which he was like, "I don't think you guys get to hear this enough, so thank you for all the hard work you do for getting our stuff done. I really appreciate it and I think you guys need to hear it more." And then he wished me a happy weekend.

:)

+ SO PRETTY TODAY AHHHHHH. I hope this weather holds over the weekend, where there will be the University District Street Fair (HEY SEATTLE FOLKS, WHO'S GOING!) and the Seattle Cheese Festival. I am looking forward to both. :|b

+ I sign my lease Monday. HUZZAH. \m/ I am so looking forward to that.

- Oh damnit, fandom. So I got into a debate last night about misogyny in fandom and the judgement of female characters--and it wrapped up pretty well! By the end of it, we'd come to an agreement, since there were misunderstandings and assumptions on both sides. I was cool with it! But then lol. Other people.

NEWSFLASH: A GIRL WALKING WITH A BOY THAT SHE HAS BECOME FRIENDS WITH IS NOT ASKING TO BE RAPED. THANK YOU.

For the record, this character has only been in one chapter so far. Sometimes, I despair.

- I fail at writing, in that I am failing to get anything done. While I am giving myself some allowances because of AHHHHH MOVING, I am disatisfied by this. :| I need to get over it--and on the upswing, I've been reading more fic than I have in a long time. And usually if I am reading more in general, I am writing more, so. Hopefully this is a hopeful sign!

- The day after we get an email warning us about frivolous internet usage and streaming media I see a coworker playing stuff from Newgrounds. S-sigh.

+ It is Friday. I have an hour or so before I am done. STREET FAIR AND CHEESE FESTIVAL TOMORROW \m/

+/- These pickled green beans are really tasty and I cannot stop eating them. :(
