Happy Looking-Glass Day
Nov. 4th, 2013 09:50 pmWas just reminded of that on tumblr -- today is the day Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There is set -- exactly half a year after Alice's Adventures In Wonderland. Pleasant symmetry, no? I would have done something, but I always focus on the day after today -- when Alice's house burned down. Also when Marty arrived in 1955, but we'll cover that tomorrow. Still, should at least acknowledge the date, so hooray for Through the Looking-Glass! :)
Not too much to report today -- parents were doing a lot of house/deck cleaning, so I stayed in my room and kept out of the way. Did another pass on Chapter 19 to assure it'll be up in time, answered what tags I had, spread around that one picture of Victor and Alice in bed -- you know, the usual. :P I think I also have a lock on the battery I want for my laptop, so that's good -- get that ordered. Be nice not to be so dependent on the power cord when going out. I've also decided at some point I really do need a mall trip, because I'm getting twitchy again. I haven't been in a while, and now that I have something that allows me to spend money occasionally again, that would be nice. And I'd like to get there before the holiday rush makes things too intense. Perhaps the Saturday after this one?
Other thing of note today -- the cold weather has finally set in. I had my first cup of hot chocolate of the season (Land O'Lakes makes a surprisingly good mix), and I've got the flannels on my bed. Winter is officially here now. Meeeeeh. Ah well. Just have to remember -- this is the season of Christmas and my birthday, both things I enjoy, so yeah.
And now I should go back to doing more productive things, so later!
