In from the cold
Jan. 21st, 2012 10:05 pmTonight I went out to see the new Sherlock Holmes movie and it was just what I needed. Due to the ALA Midwinter meeting, a lot of librarians are away so I've been picking up extra shifts. This means a nice sized paycheck next Friday but also that I haven't had a day of not working this week and won't have a day off until Wednesday. This has made it even harder to get myself doing tasks focused on applying for more jobs as it's bitterly cold and I want to curl up and read or roleplay when I'm home. Seeing the movie was a way to get out of my head for a while and it was fun, funny, action packed and made me smile. I'm going to use some of my holiday money to buy the soundtrack and if they're still there possibly some cheap DVDs that I've had my eye on like Iron Will and The Pirates of Penzance. I have a soft spot for Iron Will and horribly cold weather as I saw it with one of my brothers during a snowstorm when the power went out at my parent's place and he was taking care of me. We had to drive to a theater outside Philly to find one with power and watched a double feature with one of the awful Beethoven movies.
I've been reading some fantastic books lately but I want to save those until I've finished one of them and can put it in context with some thoughts about being Quaker as well. This is another thing that's fallen behind in this long week as my writing is there but slower. I adore the song writing meme and loved all that came out from it and seeing every one else's stories is fantastic. The various sandbox games are doing great things for my general RP feeling and either tonight or tomorrow I'm going to put one up where I try out some different points in time for a few pups.
I know I'm forgetting things but it's been that kind of week, so I'll end with the desktop meme behind the cut. It's a picture I took outside my apartment building. Normally I don't see it as Firefox and Tweetdeck are in the way.

A quick edit as I keep forgetting to share this. Here's a picture of my new boots. I need to do a proper picture post soon.
