Current Location: Work, Where Else?
I am currently...:  artistic
I'm listening to: News on TV
Long time no see!
To my defense: nothing remotely interesting happened anyway. I finished my internship last week, worked a whole five days straight and started to learn more or less for the upcoming exam. Scared stiff of that one, too. I'm going home on Wednesday for a few days (with my books, no yey) in order to serve the Legend of Laundry yes, dorky, but I swear, its such a pile I might call it as well "epic", to get a haircut (Nono's got a free day AND an appointment in that shop I adore, so we'll be off together ^^), and to try acquiring a new notebook. Dad's allowing me to buy a new one so he can have my old one - his apparently has caved under the weight of age. (His tax-program refuses to work under 512MB Ram. *g*)
Other than that? I'm currently at work because one of my colleagues quit after a fight with my employer. I hope they'll reconsider - she's very sweet, I like her a lot and she's a damn sound person. My employer is quite stupid to let her go, too.
My brain keeps fangirling over the fact that David Gareth Lloyd shares the same voice actor as Tobey Maguire on German television. My self keeps headdesking over the stupid images of Spiderman crawling around Torchwood labs. As Mea'd say, "The Little Green Door is pleased". Go die brain, kthx...
Other than that I've seriously started collecting promising ideas for a new novel. It's not much by now, but the plot is getting thicker and the characters take shape. I'm pleased by the fact that I can do this in my own pace other than getting impelled by 30-days-deadlines. It's nice for a change.
--- --- --- And while we're at books: Stephenie Meyer's Breaking Dawn? What. The. F.. I mean, I laughed a lot at all the sparklies and stuff, but that kid is just the biggest Sue ever. Also, why does Bella always end up in mortal peril to be saved without any kind of consequential damage? And that big pair-off (gah, I can't help but think pedophiles over the whole imprinting issue...) annoys me as hell. There's drama and plot and then there's total overkill.
...And that's just from having heard the audiobook. I'd probably burn the whole thing if I had a hardcover copy. And I'm usually all against drastic measures. But this? SO not my thing.
Still, if you happen to enjoy the series, go ahead. Whatever floats your boat. I'm not judging. Just don't swamp me with half-baken plotbunnies. *coughsLexicoughs*
