Fairly Quiet Monday

[crossover_chick]

Which I am pretty relieved by, as I didn't know what to expect. My coworker who was sick most of last week came in -- she still doesn't sound great, but she made it through the day, so. . . *shrug* The GL behaved itself, and I was able to get to a project that I had to leave on the back burner all last week, so that was good. AND, because it got to almost SIXTY DEGREES today, I even got in a lunchtime walk! So that was nice. :) I will definitely take it, what with rain and cold moving back in for the rest of the week.

Evening's been pretty solid too:

-->Mom and I did some more on the puzzle -- we've gotten the two dolphins hooked up, and did a good chunk on the sunken ship in the background. Slowly but surely it's all coming together!

-->I wrote some more on "Londerland Bloodlines" -- Alice has met Pee Man and gotten some blood off of him. XD I also explained why Pee Man is the way he is -- he just believes urinating outside is better. He's weird like that. XD Anyway, freshly refueled, Alice will be heading to Trip next to see about painkillers for Mercurio, and then to Mercurio to drop off the Astrolite and figure out what happens next.

-->Finally caught up on the latest Atop the Fourth Walls -- a two-for-one in Youngblood Strikeforce (showcasing backstories for the Youngblood characters, in this case Die-Hard and Chapel), and a bonus episode of Comic Book Quickies! The Youngblood comic was -- not QUITE as terrible as it could be. Chapel's story was nothing more than a poorly-illustrated gorefest, but Die-Hard's was more interesting, with a look at the "Golden Age" of the new universe, with a different Die-Hard kicking down Nazis, and a hook of needing to rescue another recently-deceased superhero's body from being turned into a cyborg for an evil corporation. So it had that going for it! And Comic Book Quickies was just fun, as always -- so many problems can be solved with Hostess products, I swear! XD

-->Also watched Show of the Week from OXBox from last Valentine's Day -- I usually just visit their channel for their lists and Hitman stuff, but this one focused on them showing off Sims 4: Tiny Living Stuff, so I figured it was worth a look. :p Jane apparently trapped Andy in his Simself and made him live in a terrible tiny home she built herself, with no wall between the bathroom and everything else. XD Good times~

-->Got all my pictures sorted for Newcrest Adventures, and did that portion of the update for Wednesday -- ended up being five posts, with 45 pictures. I forgot just how snap-happy I can get when it's my OTP. XD Look, they had a long date on Love Day, and then I had to have the kids give each other flowers -- it was a thing, is what I'm saying! XD But at least I'm locked and loaded for tomorrow.

-->And now it's time to answer any remaining comments lurking about and hit the sheets. Need my sleep if I'm to make it through the last week of February! Feels weird to know that March is right around the corner. . .that's the passage of time for you, I guess :p Night all!

Every time you mention the puzzle I keep hearing the 90s Puzz3D commercial in my head. I used to have one of those.

*snork* Did you really? Neat. What were they like? Did they hold together well?

[gigs_83]

They weren't too bad. Picture your puzzle pieces with a layer of, like, stiff foam underneath. Extra pieces were marked with red dots. I don't remember if we ever finished the one we had; all I remember was it was a building.

Ahhh, interesting. Yeah, it looked in the commercial like they were made from some form of styrofoam for support. I get the feeling some of those pieces were a pain to get to interlock, though! We have enough trouble with flat puzzles sometimes. (The latest one had bits that just did NOT want to go together.)
