castalieFirst week back at work has been a success in that a) I survived it and b) it was actually only three days instead of five. I started on Tuesday so that I was spared the trauma of going back Monday - I'm clever like that - and then I was given today off to work on my thesis (you're allowed two days off in case of competitive exams to revise and I was given one. I consider myself happy, technically this isn't a competitive exam so another boss could have told me it had nothing to do with my job and not given me anything).
I'm taking a break and since it feels like an age since I last posted, I thought I'd come and say hi. So, hi :-)
The week has been a good week, work-wise and fannish-wise. Work-wise because, as I said, I survived my going back and also because things haven't been as quiet as I previously thought - I honestly thought I'd almost get bored those first three days - which means my days have been interesting and nicely busy and I didn't get bored at all, which is always a good thing in my book.
Fannish-wise because my Tumblr - it's on LJ now too but I saw it at Tumblr first - has been in an XMFC frenzy - even more so than usual, that is - thanks to the Behind the Scenes footage of awesomeness that has circulated lately. Those BtS were great but to me, and ok it might sound a bit blasphemous, BtS!Charles seemed a bit all over the place in terms of characterisation. There was also new pictures, like this one - just gorgeous! ♥ Then there was Panic! being even more awesome than usual on stage - or was that Brendon being even more flirty and on fire than usual? Whatever it was, I approve lol
And! Cherry on the top of a delicious fannish cake, a friend of Cookie's texted us yesterday to let us know that he had two spare tickets for the WWE World Tour on Sunday night, heee! The last time we saw each other we talked about the WWE and how jealous of him I was because last year he went to the US to inteview pretty much all the WWE dudes? And then how I was jealous that he had free tickets for the show and all that. And yesterday, surprise! Two of his colleagues had to bail and he immediately thought of us so we'll be at the show on Sunday night with him. I can't wait!
I really need an icon that embodies the idea of "I'm a fan and I love it YAY"

It'll also make picking an icon for those multi-fannish entries easier because I was like "ok, what do I pick omg??" So I decided to go with the latest stock icon I uploaded, which was neutral. Plus, I love looking at it lol
