I had an awesome weekend. Saw Catching Fire in IMAX and watched The Day of the Doctor, of course. I'm so stupid, I only realized that I actually have BBC America on Friday night. I thought I could just watch on demand the next day. So after I had a complete spaz attack, I was able to watch it when it premiered on Saturday afternoon. Which was awesome!
The next three work days are going to be hell. I have to deal with all of the people buying whole cheesecakes for Thanksgiving (ugh, just make a freakin' pie like everyone else!). So before Wednesday I'll be spending a lot of quality time in the freezer sorting cakes for pre-orders. It's not that much different from being outside (so cold!) at this point so it won't be THAT bad, I suppose.
Speaking of work, for Christmas, I get a sweatshirt with my name on it. This excites me far more than it should. I'm a bit of a dork.
I still have absolutely no idea what to do for my 100th post. I mean, it is on Jordan's birthday, but since I let him write a post every month, that's kind of a lousy present. I COULD save my synopsis (which I'm totally working on, yeah...) for that day. Maybe. It's a thought. If I could come up with a title before then, that would be a pretty good present and a great reason for a special post. We'll see.
I'm also doing absolutely nothing to plan for my Muse-iversary trip in February. I really need to book a hotel room and get bus tickets first. Then I can worry about planning fun stuff. Mostly I'm concerned with where/what I'll be eating. Because food is a big part of my book. I'll probably only want to eat stuff that is mentioned in the book. And obviously I won't know until about a week before so I'll know what the weather is like, but I'm still gonna hope for a picnic. Yes, in February. If you're wondering if I'm crazy, I'm thinking you've never been to this blog before...
Hey...psst! Guys! Guuuuuuys! Do you know what happens this week? No, not Thanksgiving. Pfft. Frozen comes out on Wednesday!!! I'm so excited! I honestly don't remember when I first heard about this movie, probably when they started casting since I'm a psychopath with anything related to Broadway, but I've been dying for it ever since. I mean, have you seen the cast list??? I'm drooling over it. Unfortunately I don't really know anyone who shares my obsessiveness, so I'm probably seeing it on Thanksgiving with my sister and her family. Since my four-year-old niece is the only person I know who's looking forward to it as much as I am. Can't wait!
What's everyone up to this week? Got any awesome Thanksgiving plans? And for the love of God, don't mention NaNo to me...
I'll just be going two minutes away to the in-laws and will be staying there all day for Thanksgiving. I'm lucky in that I don't have to travel! Need to get on making a list for grocery shopping tho- I'm broccoli cheese casserole & sweet potates. I'm sure you were dying to know that... =D Hope work passes quickly for you!
ReplyDeleteYay for food! Thankfully, I don't have to travel very far, either.
DeleteWow, I didn't know Kristen Bell was in Frozen... Now I really want to see it. I also saw Catching Fire, and seeing Jena Malone in that made me think of Donnie Darko. It's crazy how old she's gotten since then.
ReplyDeleteI know! I remember her from Stepmom when she was even younger, too.
DeleteTaking The Girl to Frozen, first showing on Wednesday. It'll be her first big screen experience too. Mine was Milo and Otis. All I remember about was a dog, and cat, and a narrator. Strange the things we remember, huh? :)
ReplyDeleteOh man, I loved that movie when I was little. Now I have the song stuck in my head...
DeleteWhat am I doing? Trying to relax. It's been an insane couple weeks with my debut novel blog tour, but as it winds down, we're talking other crazy marketing adventures, and personally I'm really looking forward to a couple days of NOT worrying about that stuff. I may even (WILL) write. *sigh* Enjoy Frozen this weekend, eh?
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the time off! Hopefully you can get some writing done.
DeleteI like to do rambling posts. I should do more of them.
ReplyDeleteMaybe for your 100th post you could do something about 100 things you've learned while blogging or from blogging.
Or how about 100 reasons to do or not to do NaNo...oops, I mentioned it.

Tossing It Out
Oh, I like the idea of doing 100 things...just have to decide what exactly they should be...
