I have spent this entire week doing almost nothing at all. It's been delightful, in it's way (and stressful in the way that mind keeps poking me to say, "you have things to do and you should be doing them"). I spent tonight cross stitching, reading, and watching Project Runway reruns. I was supposed to go into work today but... it didn't happen. I don't think it'll happen tomorrow either. Maybe Sunday.
I was going to go to yoga on Sunday (I haven't been in long enough that I can't bend at the waist and put my hands flat on the floor anymore--I'm really going to hate essentially starting all over again) and still might but I discovered today that my first teacher (and a woman I am very fond of) isn't teaching anymore (at least not for the next two months). I'm really quite sad that I've missed her. She was older than me by about 14 years and had started yoga five years ago (when she turned 50, as a gift for herself). I found her very motivating and inspiring. I really need to get my yoga feet beneath me again.
This week I also finished a pinch hit for a fest, which posted yesterday, and it now has the distinction of being the fic in the fest with the least comments (two.). Poor wee genderswap fic. I'm only marking the occasion because a few years ago this would have been an anguished, tear filled rant sent off to my bestie, the only one to understand my delicate artistic temperament. Now I'm mostly thinking, "well, I liked writing it so..." Progress! kinda. Now, to catch up reading the last of the fics in both the fests I played in, answer comments, and make my recs post. There were some great fics this season! Do you guys still read fics? Some of you do, I know...
Right: to bed. I finished Death at Victoria Docks by Kerry Greenwood tonight, and I'm eager to finish one of the Tony Hillerman books I started an age ago. I found out a bit ago that his daughter has recently published a new novel in his series and I have high hopes (generally liking women writers more than men). It's on my list for next year. To bed.

ALSO, I have two fangirl friends coming over on the 2nd of Jan, so they can share in my wealth of NINE seasons of Project Runway! And one of them doesn't even know the winner of season one, and we ended our last viewing just before the final 'postal' challenge of S1!
One day I hope that we get to watch the early wonderfulness of that show together. Uncle Nick!
