Weekend Update

[seventhe]

Well, February ended nicely (excellent weekend at Chez lassarina), but I'm hoping the "In like a lion" phrasing applies, because March started off a bit of a whirlwind and I'm hoping there's a little "out like a lamb" in my future.

First: couldn't sleep last night, which was awesome. Not sure what undid me; the 3:00pm coffee in the airport (unusual, as I drink coffee all through my until-6-pm workday), or the general OCD of my brain, or maybe IDK my BFF insomnia again. Kittens were adorable and got the sleep I didn't, at least.

Second: work projects exploding (not literally (this time!)) everywhere. I love workplace wank, but I'm not dumb enough to talk about it unlocked; let's just say today has been interesting. Straaaange things are going on and it is strange and intriguing yet frustrating. Also I think my March is going to suck balls in relation to the sheer number of pounds of polymer I'm personally responsible for. My Marches always seem to suck this way. I don't understand. Ugh ugh ugh. WAH WAH HAS TO WORK FOR LIVING.

Third: Feeling general ridiculous urge to spend moneys. Rina and Kas hath convinced me to get a PSP, but I also want a laptop. Also I saw Dragon Age this weekend and I waaaaaaant. WTF self. Because I need to spend more money on video games I don't have time to play?

Fourth: Today has been such a clusterfuck and I'm really behind on writing. >.> astrangerenters don't kill me; your fic just turned long last week and I'm hoping you'd rather have a long funny story full of snarky shenanigans than something quick (it is like 10 smallish parts) because that is what has happened to it. My writing to-do list is getting longer by the moment though and I'm almost eagerly awaiting the "HOFUCK Panic Party" I have to have this week/weekend to get certain things completed.

Fifth: I got nothin'.

Sixth: I do not, however, think that you should get a laptop like ROSA. Rosa is a BEAST of a desktop replacement. XD

AND CECIL IS COMING SOON

I'm leaning much more towards the ~$600 range on a laptop -- I just bought a BEASTLY desktop computer in Angelo, right? I want to hit the "This laptop will be better than what you have and will do the (few) things Harlan doesn't (like let me compile ff_press in bed!) but won't cost you so much money that you can't replace her in 3 years with a new $500 shiny laptop."

The desktop is an investment I'm hoping will last for years. The laptop wouldn't have to be that at all.

EEEEEEEEEEEEE CECIL I AM EXCITED TO SEEEEEE HIM

Please take your time. At least you offer updates on your progress. I won four auctions and haven't gotten any stories yet, hahaha, so I'll be happy when I get ANYTHING ;)

And knowing you are working hard and making it snarky makes ME happy!!

Oh, man! Well, I am determined to get it to you by this weekend, so hopefully you'll have at least one thing to look forward to. :)

Initially I was like "oh, okay, some adventuring and snark" and then Balthier was like "no, no, this is an actual story you're telling in ten parts" and... Yeeeeeah.
