Random bits (I am still alive)
Mar. 31st, 2012 12:06 pmI'm still here, in case anybody's wondering.
* Three people at work had close relatives die (one mother, one father, one grandfather).
* I'm not really happy with either the NY Times or the LA Times. But I do appreciate the fact that I have discovered private browsing, thanks to them. I've let my protest be known to both over their paywalls/reducing free articles. I won't do more than that, because I am not/try not to be what customer service people know as an EB. (And if you don't know what that is... I don't think you want to know.)
* Speaking of which, when I was at the store on Thursday, the woman in front of me made a fuss about a dollar and forty cents worth of savings. There were six of us behind her. She was polite about it, and I can understand that some people do need to save it, but really, be aware of how busy the store is, please?
* Maybe I'll get more of Pli Malfacila done this weekend. Ditto for "Stars Their Brilliance".
* Finishathon voting is up! My plotbunnies are in this post and ready to be voted upon. If you are not participating, you can only have one vote.
ETA: Speaking of fic, I'm posting up three more parts of "Useless Things" today, as well as my mystery fic for Remix, hopefully. (Beta, do not panic.)
