So my gran's coming over tomorrow, which means I'll likely not be online as much until Tuesday. But yay for family visits! Chocolate! Tobacco! Proper dark bread flour! Yarn shopping! :D

And then there's one more weekend of relaxation, which will probably turn into a weekend of cooking and freezing meals for November, so I don't starve myself in favour of NaNo. Er, again. *innocentface* And then it's the last week before NaNo, and then just as NaNo starts, my books and stuff for the OU course should be arriving. Except lots of dorky squeeing roundabout then. :D

( To Do List for my convenience, your amusement and hassling, and everyone's general disinterest. )

( Things I need to stock up on for NaNo. )

Random rant/ramble of the day: What is with all the people getting bitchy about trends and shit in fandom? Apparently, there was a kerfuffle not that long ago with people bitching about people getting psyched about Serenity, and now there's people bitching about people doing that fanfic 100 thing, and ... I don't get it. Maybe it's because I have such a wide range of people on my friendslist, and I'm still not usuall into mainstream fandoms, but I'm used to people suddenly flocking to a (usually new, but sometimes old) fandom I'm not interested in. Firefly and Serenity, QaF, various Stargate incarnations, plus anything out of my small niche in larger fandoms like Buffy or comics fandom, and that's not even touching on the DVD-fuelled revivals of older fandoms like due South.

It's not that I can't understand feeling left out, but making big ranty foaming-at-the-mouth posts about it where the people you're bitching about can see it still seems really stupid to me. This is why god invented e-mail and IM, people, so you can vent to likeminded and/or simply understanding friends, and then go back to being amused over your friendslist's onebrain, which is pretty much what I do with all the Serenity-related posts. (You're all so cute when you get fangirly. :D)

Oh, and I still need to decide on a costume for Halloween. Help?

Updated this post to be an up-to-date To Do list, including the one scarf I forgot yesterday (oops) and a scarf I promised Molly yesterday evening, but not anything that's actually being worked on right now. ( Current actual WiP. )

This of course means that I'll probably be done with this today. So some time tomorrow, the next project, which will probably be some sort of triangular scarf/afghan/shawl/whatever you want to call it, made with all my leftovers. Probably something like this pattern/shape with this stitch
