Unsung and lost, invisible to history

brilligspoonsOfficially moved into the new office. Nothing about this situation is truly ideal, but I have my own cubicle (no sharing a double-wide with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
pocky_slash) and no one can sneak up on me? And there's not much room in the cube for more bodies, so theoretically people won't insert themselves into my space quite as much. So there's that. \o? I have a ton of work-stuff to get done this week that I maybe put off during the packing process, and I need to get on that before the VP has my head. My vacation starts next week, too, so I should probably get all my ducks in a row before then.
The original plan for vacation was a trip down to Jersey, but I'm going to spend it in Boston instead. I'm probably going to sleep a lot, try to finish my big bang, and read some more books. If I can figure out the Cape Flyer thing, I may take a day trip down to the Cape and spend some time on a beach. I feel pretty good about this.
In reading news: I finished Cloud Atlas last night. AMAZING. I had no expectations going into it, just that the movie previews made it sound interesting, and I was utterly floored. I may need to buy a copy to keep forever (I'd borrowed the ebook from BPL). Started Rivers of London (Midnight Riot, whatever) and am pretty in love with Peter Grant so far. It reminds me a lot of the Dresden books (urban fantasy with mystery/detective storytelling), and I've been told that it does certain things better? We'll see.
Hannibal ended, and I can't really deal with that finale.paper_tzipporah and I started Orphan Black, which is just fantastic, and I'm eagerly awaiting the start of the third Almighty Johnsons series. Teen wolf is...well, it's Teen Wolf. I'm pleased with a lot of things that have been happening, but I've also been severely disappointed with some things. And I need to stay in my corner of the fandom, which is mainly just Joni and me at this point. At least the company is good.
I'm hungry, and I can't remember if the microwaves came with us or not, and I forgot to make a sandwich this morning. :\

Date: 2013-06-24 11:25 pm (UTC)About 50% of my thoughts re: Teen Wolf are about how much I dislike Derek and having to look at Hoechlin every week. The other 50% is distributed between SURPRISE RACISM NO and THERE IS NOTHING MAGICALLY SIGNIFICANT ABOUT VIRGINITY and how much I love all of the humans on the show. So. /o/

(Although, the virgin thing - I think it was you that posted on tumblr? I read that and was just like, yeah, yep, YES, please someone come up with a better explanation for this.)
Stiles is obvs my fave, but in a surprising turn of events, Allison is creeping up into 2nd place! And I hope they give Lydia more to do soon.
The only character I srsly can't stand is Peter.
