1) I have been editing all of the fanfic. And having reached the end of the story sequence I was editing, I picked up on the WIP at the end, and kept writing... I'm not sure this is the best use of my time over the last few weeks of summer, but it's some sort of writing and editing practice, and it's deeply emotionally satisfying. So be it. I still hold myself to finishing daily/weekly wordcount on my Real Novel before I get to go play in the fanfic pool, so I don't think it's actively harmful.

2) Everyone is going gaga over Welcome To Night Vale, which sounds like it is totally my kind of thing, and is...a podcast.

I don't do podcasts. I've tried, I really have, but they don't work for me. I can't multi-task them, I can't pause and pick up easily like with text, they want all my attention all of the time if I'm going to follow them at all but they don't move as fast as reading text so I end up going ARGH at them a lot. But...I've seen text pull quotes from the podcasts float around occasionally.

So. Is there a set of transcripts for the episodes? Fan transcripts are fine! Being several episodes behind is fine! I just want a way to follow along that doesn't require spending loads of time being mono-focused and frustrated about it.

3) I am very glad to have my spouse back home.

4) I wonder if it's too early to run down to the co-op and start buying textbooks for next semester? Because, y'know, textbooks. SO EXCITED.
