Yeah, I'm going to be That Guy.

Hello, all! Welcome to what's become...my monthly entry, because I'm too busy posting at ladybusiness and renay Happy February. Have a list:

1. I've been tracking my volunteer hours for $dayjob, because they can count them toward...something. I didn't really ask. In January, I had 33 volunteer hours for the OTW. February so far has 69 (hahahaha so far, what). Most of this was working on my handover notes for the new Tag Wrangling co-chairs and Volunteers & Recruiting inductions, plus some proposals. We've been inducting the new staff. There are many awesome folks this year with lots of ideas and I am excited. More specifically: sanders as Tag Wrangling Board liaison (SO MANY HEARTS, THIS IS AMAZING!), the induction process getting refined and documentation improving so future inductions grow ever easier, actually being able to attend Tag Wrangling meetings...?

2. Hey, I graduated.






It only took me two months to pick them up (SORRY MOM, HERE YOU GO. Hope this tides you over until you can see the real thing). But I have them and they are official. Academia and I are finished. \o/

3. ...I signed up for the Teen Wolf Big Bang? Because I have time for that. /o\ Speaking of Teen Wolf, have a recommendation: go home, or make a home. 7,000 words of superb Derek/Stiles. ♥

I am afraid the reason I don't post much is because ultimately my life is not that exciting. I work, I read (last book: The Scorpio Races, very excellent!), I bribe people for Sunshine fic, and I'm relentlessly mocked by friends about my lack of cable. ;___;

Until March, friends! Have a great song as we part ways:

Tell our fellow staff member that! I'm saving money for my world takeover, SAM. Or maybe just my visit to stare creepily at him. Both are excellent. >.>

I will! Where is this fellow staffer? XD

Not having cable is AWESOME from a financial perspective! It saves at least $30/month, which, when you are poor, is GROCERIES! Which are waaaaay more important that cable - especially when there's nothing the hell on anyway! XD

I win! :P

His name may start with "S" and end with "am". >.>

We haven't had cable since 2009. I haven't missed it until this year, when I started to actively watch television again. I got behind on Once Upon a Time and now the only way to catch up is to either skip an episode or pay $3 to watch the episode. I'm not buying a random episode in the middle of the season. >|

Oh, media consumption! Why are you so complicated?

[highlander_ii]

Those aren't the *only* ways... *shifty eyes*

Hulu? It's how I keep up with OUAT.

[renay]

Yes, that's how I was doing it, but with finals/OTW stuff/work I missed one episode too many and now Episode 8 isn't available. :(

Piracy is all well and good, but our ISP is extra grudgey these days.
