Yeah. Just like it says, this is only my usual accounting of the week thus far.

1. Got the Test of Doom back today. Um. Well, I didn't flunk, which puts me ahead of where I expected, so... *thumbs up?*

2. I have now finished The Persuaders! canon and can confirm once more that it is the earnest tale of two very rich, very goofy guys who roam around Europe having adventures. Together. As a couple. I'm telling you, it's Nick and Nora with two penises. I am contemplating doing a post solely about this subject, simply because I have a hard time believing this, and I've seen it. It reminds me of nothing so much as a technicolor, Euroed-up version of I-Man.

Plus, you haven't lived until you've seen Roger Moore attempt to dance. Seriously. I'm bad, and even I can tell he's worse.

3. I managed to do a complete overhaul on just about everything this weekend. I cleaned the house and the laundry and my bedding and my fridge and my dog. That last earned me much grief; trying to get 80 lbs. of Golden to stay in a slick metal tub with nothing between him and freedom but a shower curtain and your own persistence is an interesting experience. And then, of course, you get the looks of doom all night long. I wound up bribing him with a toy bat. He is gratifyingly thrilled, and willing to overlook my transgressions in favor of waving its slimy, flappy wings in my face. *shrug* It beats the giant rubber tire that I wake up to on my nose most mornings.

4. As part of said overhaul, the ritual cutting of the hair was undertaken. I said, "Not very drastic, just less 'cry for help'", which apparently translated as, "Please, remove great chunks at will!" I walked out in a daze of semi-horror, but consensus today seems to be very positive. This proves once and for all that I should barely be allowed to dress myself, my sense of fashion is so shot.

5. Remember when I used to write stuff? *sigh* I keep trying, but the words aren't lining up right. I think I need to stop worrying about them, because I always write better when I'm not paying attention. Hm.

6. Tomorrow, I am going to go play with pigs. *looks for earplugs*

7. How are you doing?

1. Congrats?
2. I'm *really* curious about this now...
3. Er. A load of laundry is washing now? *averts eyes from overflowing sink* Fortunately for all concerned, I do not have a pet...
4. ^_^ This is why my hair is all one length and is long enough to tie back. I got no sense of style.
5. *sigh* drat. Maybe do drabble-prompts? To warm yourself up a bit. Or chat fic (again with the warming up).
6. *blink* Tomorrow, I get to practice sword. I think. Gotta check time. Knew there was something I was forgetting...
7. Well. I'm caught up with w*rk, I think, for once in my professional life (since, uh since I started w*rking?). It's odd, how much time that leaves when I don't leave w*rk to the end of the day. I get to, er, *exercise*.

Hee. You really should be. You get Tony Curtis and Roger Moore running around Europe in two flashy cars, pretty much flirting shamelessly. I kid you not, there is not a single episode which does not scream "So doing it." The whole thing revolves around the concept that these two playboys are roped into doing vigilante detective work via a blackmailing judge, but that one pretty much flies out the window fast. By the end of the first episode, they're off the hook with the blackmail and just doing it because they're bored. Here's the kicker, though: they spend the rest of the series living in each other's back pockets for no particular reason. Like, none. And then they spend twenty-odd more episodes getting knocked out (no, really, it could be a drinking game) and worrying frantically about each other, all while having no personal boundaries whatsoever. They have nicknames for each other. They frequently live together, and go camping together, and dance together... It's worth it for the waterskiing scene alone.

*blinks* Gayest. Show. Ever.

There is nothing wrong with the classics. *g*

7. Well. I'm caught up with w*rk, I think, for once in my professional life

Ah. That sounds nice. I've resigned myself to the fact that I will be buying a condo somewhere behind the eightball. Or possibly renting, given the state of my finances. *g*
