One of my Lexx days, suddenly plunged into overtaking twubs. Lexx is now on the cutting edge of societal evolution in media.
Have also sorted out a plan to execute over the next 40ish days. Not going to detail it, just going to do it. Time to get that book DONE.
As much as I'm enjoying rooting back into my cave, I must venture out and pick up a few groceries today, get my Lexx stuff out of the bank vault, go ask a govt office why they didn't receive something in the mail two MONTHS ago... ug. Back to real life. Resorting to a classic to get me motivated.
I am utterly flattered this morning to wake up to a Russian twitter link to a Lexx fan site discussing a couple of my Lexx articles. Thank you, automatic translator built into twitter, I love this time we live in.
Rumors started flying on our drive home from vacation, and we weren't sure what we were coming home to. Scott's work has been on the table for some time, and it started sounding like something big happened. Scott will find out more today in a meeting. Worst case scenario, we sell the house and move, but I don't think it's going to be like that. As fun as moving might have sounded a month ago, being back from vacation has me feeling pretty attached to this place right now.
Time to get my work routine back on track. I need to stop talking about it and just do it. Git-r-dun!!!! During breaks I'll be catching up laundry and scraping up some supper out of the meager stores we have left. The last thing I want to do today is get back into the car, lol, so we eat like peasants while I veg and recover from vacation.
TIME TO WORK!!! Most of you won't have a clue what this means.
Things are congealing toward a happy ending before we head back home tomorrow. Note that I'm already Gramma Janik. My kiddo named me Janik when she was about 4 years old, and I have been Janik ever since.
We're in full-on pre-birthday pre-Mother's Day mode now, and I daresay they're doing it right with lightsabers on the first year cupcakes.
Scott is the hyperest guy I know, but he finally hit his wall. This is the first morning he hasn't jumped out of bed by 6 and run down to continental breakfast for real coffee. I offered him hot water and a coffee bag at 7, but he's still in his sleeping shorts. I hit my wall yesterday around 2:30 at the Johnson Space Center. It's the kind of fatigue that sometimes precipitates flare up if I don't rest and hydrate. Our days have been running around 8 hours long, so maybe we can cut that down a bit today. We're getting a little tired of the hotel room, too, but at least we have a nice bathroom. Saw this space toilet at the Johnson Space Center yesterday. I'm starting a NASA board on my pinterest, so that pic clicks over.
Would be awesome to see fans cosplaying as STNG characters standing by this.
I think our biggest challenge so far on this vacation is finding a tiny "Texas" t-shirt or onesie to take back to burrito. She's getting something from NASA, but it's weirding us out not seeing Texas. We come from a huge tourist/college area and are so used to seeing Missouri merch everywhere to buy, guess I just assumed the whole world was like that. I've got a "Where the heck is Nixa" tee from our local Walmart, thought it must be a thing. Oh, well, right?
I need to get moving before the maid knocks. I'm in a hotel owned by people from India full of employees who speak only Spanish. I thought it was cool yesterday being surrounded by tourists at NASA speaking everything but English. That's the most international experience I've ever had. Ok, get up and GO.
