you won't like where we'll go

Can I return this Monday, please? I think it's defective. I'd prefer cash back, but I'll take an exchange.

Bleurgh. I thought the worst of my morning was when my bus just didn't come, leaving me standing in the single-digit cold for half an hour waiting for the next one ... but that was before my normally 30-40 minute ride somehow stretched into an hour and 40 minutes, much of which involved no motion whatsoever. The snowstorm on Friday didn't make me nearly so late. I have no idea what that was about.

Now that I'm finally warm, of course, the professor who runs the training grant I work on wants me to hand-deliver copies of the applications to several committee members at their off-site offices. I do not think I will be working late to make up my missed hour. Admissions be damned.

Sorry for the whining, bbs, it is just. Ugh. My weekend wasn't too bad; I cooked some delicious, hearty food to get me through this frozen week and watched the first nine episodes of Lost Girl while working on my white_lotus piece. That show is pretty awesome in many respects! I wasn't sure what I thought about the concept at first, but I love most of the characters. There should be more fic ... particularly Bo/Lauren, because I'm predictable, and it's canon. (Not that I'm lacking at the moment! I still have all of no_tags to read through, but I keep going back and rereading bits of tuesdaysgone and fleurdeliser's Frank/Gerard/Grant series instead. Fucking Morrison, I swear.)

I suppose I'd better go start printing off those applications. At least I can listen to Danger Days while I walk.

Ugh Mondays suck.

Yay I am excited for white_lotus to go live.

I love Bo/Lauren but pretty much want Kenzi in all the fanworks ever. I find both Bo and Lauren a little too remote, and while I ship the hell out of them I am hoping for more interesting characterizations next year, you know?

Man, no kidding. :(

Me too, although I am kind of struggling with my piece! I hope it comes out okay. It's going to be b&w I think, which is a bit weird (for AtLA, if not for me).

Oh, Kenzi is totally my favorite! :D I really have to draw her at some point (god, that list is so long, I need to shut up now); her design/outfits are amazing. My initial impulse was actually to ship her with Bo, but I really like the whole "sisters" vibe they have going ... and I think Bo and Lauren's dynamic is full of potential, even though the show doesn't quite realize it to my satisfaction. A great fanwriter could do a lot with them. :)

Fucking Morrison indeed.
