ad_exiaIt feels like days since I dropped my grandmother off at the airport, but that was only this morning. I got back here around 12:30, ate lunch, and headed in to work for a bit; I actually got stuff done, which is exciting! Distances down for at least a couple of the clusters! And then I got completely soaked on the way home from work in a freak thunderstorm. XD It was so weird - I mean, the sun was shining and it was pouring at the same time. At least it stopped raining soon after so I could go running! But my clothes are still water-laden and hanging in the bathroom. I can't wear my green sneakers tomorrow, I'll bet.
Anyway, I got out running and made it back in time to watch Suite Life on Deck and The Secret Saturdays (even though I missed last week's episode, but I taped it) and Phineas and Ferb~ Then I decided I should maybe try to tackle my friends list, and at least read over most of it if not actually get to comment on things. asjfaf I think I had to skip 400 or something. DD: Apologies for the few comments over the past week's entries, but I just couldn't read it all. I think I'm kind of caught up, at least? o.o; (I still have to go back through a couple of people's journals and some comms, though.) And at least I'll be around, online-speaking, until Wednesday. Though I really have to get a giant list of things to do for my trip and then get them done. I've got part of a list, but I imagine it's not nearly complete. I'm going to try and run most of my errands in the morning tomorrow, though, before we head off to St. Augustine in the afternoon.
So while perusing my flist, I learned that it appears that Rick Riordan might be doing a new series, based on Egyptian mythology this time? Hello, Percy Jackson meets Stargate. How could that possibly be bad? (XD Jeeeen. Why do people always listen to us when we plot things? THEY ARE SO LISTENING TO US. D:) Anyway, speaking of the first, The Last Olympian is sitting on the coffee table and it is taunting me. I have no time to read it. I should finish The Demigod Files first, anyway. Ahhhh. ;_; And the worst part is, it's hardcover so I shouldn't even bring it on my trip. (I'm actually thinking of bringing Magic's Pawn or something, to read if I get bored but at least it's small and light. ::fail::) Ah well, at least I'm inspired again for my fanfic, and I think the next chapter is almost done! Except Kronos is getting really freaking long-winded. Then again, it takes a lot of words to convince people to be evil, I guess. XD (Or just a... what was it called, the Turn Everything Evil-inator. Right. That would make it much easier. ;D) And speaking of the second, I totally watched all of season 1 of SG-1 with my grandmother (at her suggestion!) in four days. XD WOO. Except it ended on a horrible cliffhanger and now I have no more and she promised to mail me more, but not 'till I get back. Ahhhh~ At least she left me the season 1 DVDs so I can watch the bonus featuresand possibly make screencaps for icons.
And finally, in awesome news, they extended Star Wars weekends! I CAN GO! :D (Of course, I think I'll just have to re-wear Padme, as I don't have time to make anything new, but I'm kind of tempted to throw together a Jedi-ish outfit if I'm alive after my trip...)![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
noctaval, I can't convince you to drive up for it, could I? :D; I can only go to the last weekend, June 12-14 or something, so I've got to pick a day in there, probably actually over the weekend since I should, you know, start being an astronomer again at some point.
What I wouldn't give to be NOT BUSY for a while. D: Seriously.
