graculusGood news at work, of a kind - my boss has successfully argued I can have another body on a 12 month contract, starting whenever we can appoint. The downside of this is that the subset of:
> people who are qualified to do the job
> people who can do the job
> people who I could bear managing
> people who want a 12 month contract rather than a permanent one
means that I'm looking at a very small pool of potentiality right there...
In other news, just about recovered from the week after my week off. Yes, it takes that much to catch up with the things that haven't been done or the things that have been done in a way I'm not happy with, particularly when I spent most of last week feeling like someone had tried to stuff a pillow inside my head without removing my brain first. This effectively squeezed my brain into submission at times.
In other other news, I am officially in love with Suits though I wish I could find folks who write it well. I've pretty much read everything over 1,000 words on AO3 and various communities and haven't been overly impressed, but I guess that says more about the quality of the interactions in the original? Cannot wait to see how they resolve the season 1 cliffhanger!
Also, there remains much love for Fringe in chez Graculus and I also have the first few of a couple of new(ish) shows to try out: Homeland (because I love Damian Lewis) and Person of Interest.
Yes, I am prevaricating and haven't written anything, how did you guess? Can't quite summon up sufficient plot so far for Nano though my main characters are developing quite nicely. ;)
Also I now have a Tumblr account, because it's shiny and another really good source of prevarication...
