The view from freedom

Hello internet. I've been abysmally out of touch since leaving my job. Basically this is because I've been busy relaxing, playing video games, and catching up on visits (so far my maternal grandmother,[livejournal.com profile] countouttheday, my father/sister/brother, and soon [livejournal.com profile] sainfoin_fields and possibly my aunt and paternal grandparents). Also catsitting [livejournal.com profile] sophia_helix's LilycatTM. Basically I feel so much better (despite a bizarre sore throat) and quitting was the best thing I've done in a long time.

I will be online more in the next two days, as I need to be writing pinch hits (although possibly only one) for [livejournal.com profile] asoiaf_equinox and my Doctor Who femslash exchange fic, among other things. Also expect a write up on Season 1 of Life (which I totally liked and fulfills my kink for tough female cop detectives with daddy cop issues and men who broaden their horizons and deconstruct their reality... even though Charlie isn't a gateway to the supernatural like Angel and Harry Dresden) and the last two week's the Sarah Connor Chronicles (once I watch this week's as I was busy and didn't get to it Monday on account of Warhammer 40K Tabletop) plus the last two weeks of Bones and possibly season 2 of Torchwood depending on how fast we tear through that.

Also, [livejournal.com profile] sophia_helix and I feel that we must go see Lustra (SCOTTIE DOESN'T KNOW) as they are going to be in town on Friday. Y/Y?

Hi guy! Isn't Life swell? The season two premiere is up on Hulu and spoiler alert it is also swell! Although Dani Reese is ridiculously beautiful enough that I do not really approve of new frippery going on with her hair.

Life is totally swell. Perhaps we will investigate said premiere after catching up on SCC tonight . (We are very close to getting a DVR I think) I have not seen said frippery but the prior part of the sentence is definitely true enough that I am willing to believe it.

Also I need to call you re: this weekend.

Yay quitting. And I have a sore throat too. I keep feeling like I am GOING TO get sick but then I never do. Seriously annoying.

OMG might have job offer this afternoon, though. Awesome person I interviewed with wants to meet me in person today. She seemed like she just wanted to check references and hire me yesterday and I gave her my two references who I think I am the best thing ever.

I am currently drinking tea with honey in hopes of soothing my throat, despite not wanting my tea to be more sweet than it is naturally. I hope I didn't give you the sore throat, but it did appear for me like on the way to see you so it is utterly possible.

Awesome. I'm glad the job search is totally going better than expected.

Haha, my cat is trademarked. Although A. was saying the other day that he likes the name Lily so much he's kind of sad we used it on the cat instead.

I felt it was appropriate (also I was really amused that I guessed the superscript abbreviation for coding would be sup and it was).

Awww. Well I guess you could just wait until the cat is no more and then have a daughter?
