lauraanne_gilmanYep, I've come to the point in revisions where I'd rather be doing just about anything else. Fortunately, I built this happening into my timetable. Gods I'm organized. Someone slap me.
on cats.
Pandora, those who know her will agree, is not a lapcat. Unlike Indiana (that slut), she does not as a rule make physical contact. If she brushes up against you, you've been honored. If she lets you pick her up for a few minutes without protest... well, you're me. She will show her affection only when you sleep, by slumping like a dead weight exactly where you usualy sleep in the bed and refusing to move.
For the past week or so, however, Pandora has wanted nothing more than to sleep in my lap. Which would be fine and great except, of course, she wants to do this only when I'm working.
I'm not complaining really, I'm not. But it will be interesting to see if, when the revisions are done, she goes back to her usual patterns...
On baking cookies.
Made gingerbread when![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
greeneyedkzin was over on Friday pre-Philcon. Made another batch of almond-ginger wreaths to replace the ones we ate; got the green coloring right this time, so am feeling pleased with self. Multi-chips and cinnamon stars are already in the freezer, so all that's left are the sugar cookies and the brandy chocolate tulles. Oh, and the truffles, too. Will get soundly hurt if there are no truffles...
And then there's RotK.
Wheeee! Have already gotten major spoilers from friends who were at various premieres, but I. Don't. Care. Am not fangirly. Just impatient. Going to see it tomorrow evening, with spousal and my friend Lisa (Lisa is also going to see it at 10 that morning, crazy girl). And then I will see it again when EBJ arrives from London to see out/in the year with us. We've done it twice so it's a fannish tradition.. what the hell will we do next year?
Anyway. Reviews are mixed, as I knew they would be -- P.J. made some choices that will make folk unhappy. But we knew he'd have to going in. I just want to see it for myself. *glyph of meerkat jumping up and down in excitement and frustration*
Okay. Un-procrastinating now.
