steady rollin'

Earlier today I almost had a "no one yells at me" moment similar to the evil twin's, but while rationally I understand the written exchange in the retail log, emotionally I am less than happy with the tone of it. Particularly when my comment was left in the intent to be constructive and seek the root of the problem rather than merely addressing the symptom. My feathers will be less ruffled tomorrow I'm sure, but it made the decision a whole lot easier to apply for another job today. It would be doing pretty much exactly what I do now which I love, and hopefully with more hours and spiffier perks. I cross my fingers.

After work yesterday, J and I saw Up. I can't even pretend to be a robot anymore. :( My superpower to callously watch the most heart-wrenching films has abandoned me and now I get all sniffly over everything. I had no idea what to expect out of Up based on what I'd seen at Wondercon, but as usual, I wasn't disappointed. It was lovely, both visually and emotionally. I'd happily see it again.

Somehow the image challenges at random_fic_is_random being posted in batches makes me stall on writing anything. I ascribe an invisible deadline to them which is silly considering it says quite obviously on each post to "take as long as you'd like". Participating, I'm doin' it wrong.

On the other hand, Picture #8 is the first one to really ping me for a particular fandom or character. For the most obvious of reasons it makes me want to write Sneakers. Alas, I have no new bunnies, and Yuletide gave me so much good Whistler in drag there's nothing left for me to write!
