Much More Low Key Wednesday

crossover_chickCommute in was pretty darn smooth, work itself was a lot quieter and allowed me to wrap up a few things (even get back to trying to update some roster stuff), and ride home was darn near perfect! I was genuinely shocked, let me tell you. O.o Well, I'll take a relatively easy day, especially when I'm PMSing and we're starting a new appeal. I get the feeling there's not going to be many of those in the future!
Anyway, evening has been a little more scattered, but I still got stuff done:
-->My aunt sent over another bag of new clothes for me to try -- none of the pants fit, unfortunately (well, okay, one ALMOST fits, but it's very skinny-leg and doesn't seem to sit right in the crotch, and another would have been nice for hanging around in if they hadn't been capri-length with cuffs), but I found some shirts and and a sweater I like and am willing to give a shot. As per usual, the others can be picked over by my coworkers.
-->Wrote some more on "Londerland Bloodlines" -- Alice is already smelling that Knox is setting her up for something. For what, she's not sure yet, as she didn't ask about his "secret mission," but. . .yeah, his enthusiasm doesn't quite ring true to her. And now she's about to meet Vandal, which -- well, hello, the one ghoul she definitely does not like! Though she's not actually going to get that pissed off at him until she learns about Lily. . .
-->Watched three episodes of GrayStillPlays -- Survive The Blackout (a survival simulator post-a mysterious event which crashed all technology; Gray's little band of maniacs spent most of their time robbing everyone they came across -- and were judged worthy to enter the happy place at the end of the game, much to all our amusement); Chinese Parents again (Gray played the next generation of his deeply dysfunctional family -- old protagonist Nameles somehow cleaned up his act enough to have a daughter, Gary Bu (short for Busey), and said daughter endured years of abuse from her parents (seriously, the mother can actually say to the character "I REGRET HAVING YOU" (caps mine)) to become a Not-So-Good actor. One that can run 10,000 miles though, damn); and Outside the Box (a bouncer simulator that seems to have some interesting backstory regarding our protagonist, an ex-con trying to go straight. . .but we don't have time for that, we have to let in every drunk and tweaker we can, and punch everyone else. Including "Ronald Trump," "Daniel Hasselhoff," and "Nicholas Caige." XD So satisfying). And good times were had by all.
-->Watched the latest episode of Lego Masters -- today was the "Space Smash" challenge, where you had to create space-themed builds that, basically, smashed in interesting ways when Will Arnett destroyed them. Some truly awesome stuff here, but also some -- less-than-great ideas. The show still thinks it's more clever than it actually is, but I am sufficiently impressed by the better builds to keep watching.
-->Just updated my VictorLuvsAlice queue -- Thursday's posts are good to go, and I have the photos for all of Friday's Valicetine's Day stuff, so hooray, at least somewhat on top of things. XD Hey, at least I finally finished that darn ship meme I've been working on for about a week!
And now I need to go to bed. One more day of work to get through tomorrow. . .here's hoping it isn't too rough. Night all!
