threeplusfireWatching old episodes of South Park often reminds me of wacky things, like when people got so worked up over the nudity and profanity on NYPD Blue. While I think getting rid of cable was ultimately a good thing for me and I'm much less inclined to use the television as a sort of background noise to everything, I do sometimes miss the random discoveries of movies channels. I never would have gotten so fascinated by Korean cinema without IFC.
Mike is being super productive again today. He's installing a vent and a cat door tot he closet with the litterbox, so our library won't be quite so pungent at times. I should probably do something useful like take down the Christmas lights. I did manage to do a little closet clearing, ran the robot and cleaned the kitchen sink today. We even went to the grocery store. I always regret not purchasing cookies.
Currently reading some Vampire Hunter D novels. My DVDs are missing. I hope I've just loaned them to someone and they will eventually come back. I tried to start reading this steampunk zombie novel but I'm sad to admit it is boring the hell out of me.
For Yuletide this year, I only managed one story due to the recovery from surgery. But I think it turned out well and it was fun to revisit the source. I always think Gail on Profit develops this sisterly sort of affection for her creepy boss and in What's Best For Gail? I tried to show that side of her. One of my favorite episodes is "Chinese Box" which inspired the story. Gail interviews and is turned down for a promotion and Profit starts seriously grooming her to take more risks and initiative. The recipient loved it, which is always a great part of Yuletide.
