It’s over here. Go take a look!

But the time for my print vendor to bring up a problem with a supplied file is *not* an hour before the job has to go to press; less than a day before the same, already late job has to ship out, and after the client has seen and approved a proof supplied by the vendor.

Every year, Bill tries to go completely overboard with my christmas present(s) and I (usually) manage to talk him down to something reasonable. (Threats of bodily harm are often involved.) This year he got around the “no big presents” rule by presenting me with a new, faster CD burner and a DVD-RW drive. I can now back up *4 gigs* of data on a single disk.

So yeah - he gets official super cool santa points for the year.

I’m just dying for RotK to come out, and it’s worse knowing I’m not going to have time to actually go *see* it until after new year’s. Especially with the new trailer that’s been showing up on TV of late. I swear, I *squeak* every time it comes on. Addicted? Why yes I am.

It’s officially been five years since Bill and I moved in together. Wow.

And for everyone who’s about to ask, well why haven’t you gotten married / when are you getting married, my answer is as follows:

When we buggering well feel like it.

Because I get that question too often.

Just needed to mention, this might be the best series you aren’t watching. It’s World of Darkness does the great depression, only better than White Wolf would have done it.

Somewhere, Richard Hatch is throwing darts at a picture of Glen Larson, and possibly burning him in effegy, but I couldn’t care less, because the mini-series *rocked*. In no specific order:

• I want to marry Starbuck. She’s got Dirk Benedict’s cigar chomping swagger *down*. And she kicks so much butt.
• The old theme being played during the de-commisioning ceremony? Lovely touch.
• The new Baltar. Less evil, more angst.
• Number 6. Way cooler than the imperious leader. But snapping the infant’s neck? Could they have found a more obvious way to draw a big arrow and yell “Look! she’s Eeeevil! Bad person over here!”?
• Tension between the military and civilian government. ‘Cause, y’know, that never happens in real life. Snerk.
• I’m in a tiny bit of denial over Boomer, ’cause does she even *know* what she is? (Thinking about the bit about sleeper agents here.)
• The sacrificed firefighters? God*damm*it pepole - that just hit me in the stomach and made me all sniffley.

But the snow is, and I have to drive in it. And get stuck trying to park in it. And (wait for it) sprain my flipping *toe* while digging out a parking spot at work.

Why yes, I do feel like an idiot. Sigh.
