ramble bramble

My hair is totally in braids. Yes, this is a significant enough event in my life that I'm sharing it. Yes, I'm a doof. I'm also a doof who doesn't take care of herself enough, so actually, you know, doing something with my hair is kinda neat, and also kinda rare these days.

After I finished both bathrooms last night (all hail Cislyn, for she is mighty in the ways of cleaning!) and unloaded and reloaded the dishwasher and finished Magician's Gambit (read in snatches while various things "soaked"), we watched an episode of B5 season 5. Wow. It was absolutely wretched. Now, we've only watched a few episodes in this season so far, and I know some of the reasons why they're not so good, but this one... ~sighs~ written by Neil Gaiman and it was really quite, quite bad. Guest-starring Penn and Teller and really quite, quite bad. I was very disappointed. Good things about season five include tall blonde yummy telepath cult-leader type figure and Lyta maybe not getting gypped quite so much, but only maybe... and um... yeah. That's about it so far.

My hands are all icky today, unfortunately, even more than usual. ~puts hand lotion on the list of things to get soon~

Neat Links (you know, metafilter rocks. a lot):
Rare book, manuscript, and special collections library of Duke University. I could get lost in geeky goodness, and that's just online. I live near this. Ahhhhhhhh.

300 (but really 400) love letters

Hmmm... thought I'd more to link to, but that will do for now. I'd better actually focus (focus? what is this thing focus?) on work for a bit.
