desertvixen It's Friday!
This meant that after I did errands, and read a little bit, I got to sleep for a whole seven hours before dragging my lazy carcass out of bed and going for a run with my roommate.
There is something in my right upper thigh that is pulling now, so the rest of the night should be fun. But we ran, which is good.
Errands involved getting initial money put in the Savings Deposit Program, a nifty little deal for deployed people that lets earn 10% interest a year on up to $10K. And the money can stay in for 90 days after you return, so if you cram the cash in quickly, you can actually get the whole deal. I also had to visit our post office and mail some paperwork. Of course, all this involves roaming the base on foot, so I was pretty happy to come home and go to sleep.
Other things that are good: YULETIDE IS COMING! Nominations will open 16 September. Looking at the rules from the new mods (elynross is not doing it this year, sadness) I think the things I like to request will all be good. Nancy Drew is edging close to the line on the AO3 limit, but should be good this year. So maybe this will be the year I get lucky and get the Nancy Drew story I ask for.
There are some changes in the whole nomination process, and it looks like the number of nominations we can put in may not be 3 - they were looking at 4, but are trying to avoid the list getting to be huge, which I can understand. That means it's time to spend some time reading my "things I've asked for in the past" list as well as the post on Yuletide where people are talking up fandoms and going through that whole thing. It has 760 comments now, however, so it will not happen before I go to work this evening. Which, sadly, is in about 30 minutes.
School is back in session - not sure how much I am going to enjoy it after some of the reading we are doing, but I think it's good to stretch my horizons.
