Oh no! The arts council here offers so many cool classes! Sign-ups are today and I can't decide which to do!



(Note: I probably won't make my decision based on this poll, but I am very curious what y'all think I should do!)

+ Being Human is most definitely an entirely different show now, and I can’t decide whether it’s going to be AMAZING or a hot mess. I trust Whithouse more than I do 95% of showrunners, but we’ll just have to see. I’m definitely giving it a chance because A) Annie is still the best ever, especially now that Mitchell’s gone [don’t miss you, babe!], B) Michael Socha’s sad, sad eyebrows give me feelings, and C) there’s some crazy world-building stuff going on that could potentially be awesome. So we’ll see.

+ I’m thinking of giving up tumblr for Lent. Mostly because the very idea of doing so makes me want to scream, so I know that it’s something good to give up. I could give up chocolate or something without thinking about it, but that’s not the point. Plus, tumblr takes up a significant portion of my life that could (honestly) be better employed. So we’ll see. Maybe that will happen.

+ I just got a canvas to paint something for over my parents’ bed, and I’m super excited about it. I haven’t painted since high school, but I miss it loads. I’m mostly worried I have lost ALL ability, but I guess we’ll see. If I’m not horrified by the result, I’ll take a picture and show y’all. Now I just have to buy some oils (UUUUUUGH WHY SO EXPENSIVE).

+ It’s allegedly going to get cold again. Since we’ve been enjoying a nice stretch of 65 degree days, I am petrified with fear at the idea of it dipping back below 50. NOT OKAY. Winter is stupid.

+ I’ve been, like, immersing myself in all things Nerdfighteria the past week or so, and I had forgotten how much I enjoy the Green brothers. And it occurred to me that I still haven’t read any of John Green’s books, because as we all know, I don’t really read Here and Now books? If it’s about contemporary America and doesn’t have loads of supernatural elements, I’m usually not that interested in reading it. But I have put a hold on The Fault in Our Stars at the library, so I will be reading it once I get ahold of it. I feel it is my duty as a Nerdfighter, you know.

+ It really annoys me that I never know whether a new episode of my shows will be on in a given week. It’s frustrating as anything. Because I never know whether I’ve missed an episode or whether there wasn’t a new one this week or what. They should quit with this “sometimes we air it, sometimes we don’t” thing and just do it in blocks. Take a break in the winter or whatever, sure. BUT AIR THINGS CONSISTENTLY OMG THIS IS SO ANNOYING TO ME.

+ Obviously, my life isn't terribly exciting at the moment. If yours is, tell me about it.
