Yay I survived working the night shift - okay, it's not the night night shift, but when you're used to day shift it's a bit of a difference - although man, it sucked. There's only three days left until the fiscal month ends and I'm short by, oh, about ten sales? We'll see if I hit commission this month or not. (I hope I hope I hope, it would be nice to be sitting on a little money now that my car payments are $100 more than what they were two months ago.)

I just got buzzed by a GINORMOUS fucking housefly. Where's my cat when I need her? I'm too tired to stalk it, it's just a housefly and not a wasp. (One summer my parents had an infestation of houseflies that was later traced to a bag of potatoes in the back of the pantry that had turned into mush, but until we discovered the source of the infestation we ALL got very got at swatting flies out of the air with washcloths.) The entire apartment is ... mildly trashed, I need to dust, vacuum, clean the kitchen top to bottom and scrub my fucking bathroom. It's not as bad as it's been, but it's one of those "put your home in order, put your mind in order" kind of thing right now. I need to empty my bedroom of all the piles of shit, I've got BOXES of fandom-ish stuff I would like to sell but I don't know if it's worth it to list on e-bay. Plushies, posters, various bits of fandom bric-a-brack I've accumulated over the years. Anyone have suggestions on where I can list stuff that's not, well, e-bay?

Since my DVR had a spastic meltdown I lost all my scheduled recordings, I can't remember half the shows I was watching because I got so dependent on it, lol. I fail so hard. Anime-wise I'm currently burning through Guilty Crown and, well, actually enjoying it. It's been a long time since I've watched a show and I'm like OH GOD NEXT EPISODE NOW PLZ WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'M TEN MINUTES LATE FOR WORK. My current "season" slate is Accel World; Eureka Seven AO; Fairy Tail; Fate/Zero S2; Hiiro no Kakera; Hyouka; and Jormungand. With the exclusion of Fairy Tail, everything is new to this season. All my long-running series have ended, orz.

I've been reading a lot lately too, since my parents got me a Nook for my birthday. Currently working my way through all of Christopher Moore's books, re-reading the ones I have read and enjoying the ones I haven't. Currently on Lamb (for about the seventh time, that book is amazing).

Writing-wise I haven't done much lately. Poking and prodding at my werewolf bigbang - which is, of course, FMA ... but not my Nightbreed AU. It's an actual canon werewolf fic. Kinda. It's hard to explain, I can't wait to finish it and post it, I'm quite excited. It's been a long time since I've written some one-off fiction that isn't connected to a universe I've built. 

Chicago in two weeks, woo!
