Weekends fly so fast! I haven't managed to do much of anything I needed to do. I did manage to edit my fanfic some, but I had really wanted to finish the chapter, and that didn't happen. I also wanted to make a dent in my Christmas list. That didn't get started much less done. I did manage to finally decorate a Christmas tree, but the mantle remains undone. It was a pleasant weekend, though (even if it largely featured shopping but not actually buying anything.)
On other topics -- it's freaky hot, these days. Friday, Saturday, Sunday, today, I wake up, look out the window, think "It's December" but, although I realize it's warm outside, I still manage to choose a long sleeve shirt or long sleeve cotton sweater. I then walk outside and realize that I'm wearing too darn much. My office is swealtering right now (partly because it's on the southwest side of the building in direct sun, but it's December! I shouldn't have a fan going and fighting the urge to go into my boss's office and to turn down the air conditioning because my office is hot. I realize it's supposed to drop back into normal temperatures by the upcoming weekend (50s) but this last weekend and today is featuring temperatures that make it difficult to believe that it's only a few weeks until Christmas. (At this moment it's 78 degrees and it's not yet noon... in December. Freaky).
As far as TV goes, I giggled at last night's "The Amazing Race." Croatia looked gorgeous, and the featured contestant meltdown was a thing of reality TV beauty

ETA: And now, having listened to it, it seems an awful lot like fanfic (which isn't an insult, as I really enjoy fanfic) but it really does seem like Sherlock Holmes and Watson find themselves in an alternate universe where Dracula is real (and advertises!) and the world is run by Illyria's "Old Ones" from "Three Deep" (or, more accurately, run by Cthulhu).
