Since I'm finally done being clobbered at work for two days, I can finally comment about my weekend. You know, because everyone's been on pins and needles just suffocating in anticipation. This past weekend Little Dude stayed with my mom. All that potty-training progress we'd made, well, that whooshing noise was the sound of it flying out the window.
And now, I'm going to try and get my son interested in something that isn't my computer and then escape to my much beloved bed.
First: I have no idea why, but I can't choose my favorite LJ viewing setting anymore on my laptop. I still can on my desktop, though. Why this must be confounds me, though I'm sure it might have something to do with that LJlogin extension for Firefox. Hmmm. I am displeased.
Second: I managed to acquire a few books and graphic novels from my Amazon wishlist. Do not ask to see the wishlist for the Wif has declared it lame and uninteresting! My weekend haul though consisted of the Empowered v1, Yotsuba&! v4, yet another art book, and Evil Genius.
Third: Evil Genius would have had Soon I Will Be Invincible as a companion were I not so utterly depressed that it was a parallel to my own 2005 NaNoWriMo novel. Evil Genius at least reads like an alternate reality version of my half-conceive-then-abandoned 2006 novel. It's like seeing someone not as funny as you tell your best anecdotes.
Fourth: I saw Live Free or Die Hard with ne_today and Transformers by my lonesome. The former was incredibly fun and exciting. The latter not as much, but still decent.
Fifth: While still rather rebellious, it appears that Little Dude was quick to regain said potty-training skills. Well, most of them.
Sixth: I managed to neither write nor draw a damned thing this weekend, yet I feel oddly rejuvenated and have a few new ideas for my original stuff banging around now.
Seventh: I cemented my belief that "the bar scene" isn't exactly my scene of choice and being the only sober person in the building gets old quick.
