In the news today....

So, this is a bit worrisome. Not so much for the fact that it's untrue, but for the fact that people will actually believe that sticking a pad to your foot will suck out all the heavy metals overnight. Yeah, right.

Also, this could be worse. Actually, the more I think about it, the more excited I get. His young age concerns me, but I'm ready to give him a chance.

You guys have probably already seen this warning, but be careful anyway. Facebook is having issues, too, I hear.

In other news.... hooray for 'Hamlet.' I wish I could've seen it. I mean, it's not only David Tennant, but Patrick Stewart, also. Oh, well. Maybe they'll make a film. :P

Hello, world

I'm having a weird day. Slept in a bit, not enough to actually be late for work but enough to be late for service. I had cake for lunch (which was not my fault), and now I'm at the office, which has been completely rearranged. I feel a bit like I'm in one of those funhouse things where the floor turns. Everything is different, and it's quite a strain on my poor old self to have to turn around and grab the phone with my left hand.

So unfair, I tell you. Life is hard.

In other news: I must finish my novel by tomorrow evening. It's long and novel-worthy, but it doesn't actually have an ending yet. This is the first time I've ever written a novel where I reached the word count before I had an ending. It's... weird. I'm not one for endings; I've written an absurd amount of unfinished stories/poems/songs, etc. And when I do manage to finish something, it breaks my heart, like I've just killed it or something. Weird.
Although I'm glad it's nearly over, since I'm just coming apart with ideas for more things.

I'm having a hard time typing right now, since my nerves are shot from playing this game.
Painful for someone who can type quickly without looking at the keyboard, yet types with four fingers instead of the correct ten.

I went to see 'Australia' on Thursday. Great fun, but very long. I expected it to be over at five different instances. (It reminded me of the style of movies from the 1940s, though, so that was cool.)

I spent a wonderful, geek-tastic, fangirly evening last night with Rebecca, watching about 5 hrs of Doctor Who in a row, from this episode (which was scary) to this episode (which was silly). I feel worn out now, strangely. It was awesome, nonetheless.
No, no: fantastic. ;-)

Now I must work. Someone has inadvertently created more work for me to do. Bah.

Working and blogging

I thought this BBC article was kind of interesting; neat to see the history behind the show.

So, it's my (officially) 2nd day at work today. Nice office, good environment... and an espresso machine. :D
This blog will most likely be written during coffee breaks, slow spells of the day when everyone has passed out from exhaustion, and at home, lamenting the dirty dishes and NaNoWriMo. If you like it, please follow it. It'll be fairly active, and much more efficient than me sending out the same email to a zillion people every day.
What's everybody up to this week? I have: work, a get-together, work, learning to make a layer cake, work, an anniversary party including said cake, work, and field service.
Wow.
Thank Jehovah for weekends. He really knew what he was doing with that idea.
