Yeah, I just got spoiled for Agents of SHIELD thanks to Facebook.

The day of productivity continued. I have baked, cooled, and iced 16 regular cupcakes and 12 minis. Some have crunched peppermint candies on them, others have M&Ms in the shape of a wreath on top.

I'm almost done putting together my white elephant gift. Just need to assemble and wrap (frame with chocolate and "In Case of Emergency, Break Glass).

So there was wine night and the news that my friend is taking a job in NC. Seen it coming for a while, happy for her, sad for us. The hood is pretty much the only thing she's having regrets over. But she travels a lot and has a huge base here too, and I've told her to keep her key; she can crash here anytime.

Typical Karen, she totally buried the lede. Bitch. But I know that's where she wants to be and where there is career and relationship advancement. Damnit.

oi, Work, so stressy and so much of it. But, now I have a couple of days off at least. (and, of course, grateful for a decent, well paying job with paid time off and whatnot!)

Hope everybody in the Bay Area is okay!! Be careful out there, people!

In utterly un-shocking news, came home to our little (fake) xmas tree toppled over and the tree topper busted. It was decorated in mostly un-breakables except for that topper, which didn't have sentimental value or anything. I'm pretty sure the kittens were to blame although I did find pieces of the broken ornament, as well as a cloth bird ornament, up on our bed which seems like the work of the dog.

I knew the tree was a goner as soon as I saw boykitty (Magellan?) making an ornament dingdingding while people milled about.

ION, I might have a problem. I am apparently developing the hots for my office boyfriend. Oops. Remind me not to hit on him in any of the upcoming social events?

Why? Is he married?

Kittens are to blame for lots of things (today the kittens seemed to decide that "Claws are FUN!" and kept trying to climb me. They're a little too heavy for that, or for the amount of clothes I was wearing).

I hope SF gets all the rain it needs? Or can handle? Or whatever?

oes Forever belong in Boxed Set, or Procedurals? I think that Boxed genre trumps Procedural because....well, it's my reflexive reaction.

I'm not even sure what the difference is, but I don't go in either thread. Maybe I should!

I'd say, given that either magic or science so far beyond ours as to be indistinguisable from magic is a key continuing plot device, boxed set is a good call.

That's what I thought about Person of Interest, so I thought it best to ask.

No, just inappropriate.
