Oy, I knew I should have done more than go out and, well, buy things this weekend, but hey. I think I needed a little break, get out of the dorms and off campus. Busses are wonderful.

Watchmen kept me up far too late last night. Because it is full of wonderful and I wanted to get to Rorschach's chapter. Because he so crazy. I was too tired to get to the second Nite Owl's story, which made me sad, because I kind of like him. He's got a nerdiness that the others don't seem to have.

My desktop Inbox is kind of full right now. I went on a crazy fanart spree. I should probably transfer that to my backup/picasa when I have time. Silly, I know, but I don't like to keep more than I need on my actual harddrive. That's what I have web and backup for. Makes the computer run better, with less junk on it.

My to do list has gotten bigger. On the writing front I've two claims, a fanwork-a-thon story that I need to wrap up (I know where I want it to go, sitting down and making it go has been a challenge. But when I had time, instead of any of that, I got re-inspired to do an original piece that I'm sure only I care about. I'm going to fail school. XD At least my WIP list has thinned a bit.

I'm debating which of my original projects to pull characters from for [personal profile] imaginarybeasts this month. Genderswap is always a great theme. I'm half tempted to write about that paladin character I've wanted to insert into Archetypicality (basically a bunch of stories where I play with reincarnation, archetypes, and fucked up destiny + physics). Because girl paladins are awesome. Especially ones that own a comic book store (I blame you, Alan Moore). Or I could write an Imperaxyl piece. XD Gah, brain won't focus.

I'd kindly like to ask for a time-space warp that will give me an extra month, plz. XD

And I've not even gotten into the school assignments I have. Way to go, lighter load that still manages to make everything happen at once. At least Jersey Highwind is back in class. Having it taught by the TA on Friday was suck. And having no class on Wednesday.

Onward!

P.S. Fables Volume 3 got! Read through most of it already, because yeah. Was just the right price for the gift card I had. Dear Snow White and Bigby Wolf--can you two get any more awesome?

Alright, so I forgot it was Monday again, and my RA roped me into sitting with the group for dinner. Which is ok, but I really just wanted to read some Watchmen and have a quiet dinner to myself before devoting myself to programming. But she's cute and within my age bracket, so I tend to cave. Goddamn brunettes.

So our faculty fellow Mr. British was there, which is fun, because I know a couple Brits and I get their sense of humor. Also he's intelligent enough to talk to me about well, my work. No offense to the girls or my RA it just isn't their field, is all.

The point of this story was Mr. British, upon sitting down informs me that he apparently talked to one of the Aero professors about me, because he's working on some gaming related project for our department. I'd heard a little about it, actually knew someone that almost got hired on with it, fun times. But I haven't gotten, well, recommended or talked about much since going to college, as I sort of kept my head low and tried not to fail most of the time here.

So I guess this means I have to quit being lazy and drop by Professor D's office already. Considering I have Brit mention. XD

Also, it was nice to be able to talk to an adult excitedly about how I'm designing an educational module and for him to get excited with me. My god do I miss work. Realized that this past week despite keeping mostly on top of things I've hit that kind of mood. Can't help a brain imbalance, sometimes, I suppose. Going to purchase some dark chocolate, then.

Now I must program. Enough putting it off.
