Hi Internet!
I spent the last week on vacation in a farm where I had iffy connectivity and didn't open the laptop once. (I did, however, read ALL THE GOOD OMENS fic, so I was fine.)
I still haven't watched the Good Omens miniseries either, but I will hopefully soon! (I did watch some Lucifer a couple weeks ago when I needed something 100% mindless, and so far I have not hit a bad GO/Lucifer crossover - right now I am enjoying Angel Network, which started as a Murder Mysteries/Lucifer (TV)/Good Omens crossover and has since added Neverwhere. Have yet to find anyone pulling in the characters from the old Angel/Demon AU porn comic by gNeil that is 100% rule-69 Aziraphale/Crowley; I really need to find those scans and re-up them.) It's so great to have so much fic suddenly appearing for the first 'media' fandom I ever read fanfic for! (It was And When He Falls, not quite twenty years ago. Still good.)
It's really nice that I got a lot of things that had been lingering to-do tasks done before I left, so I came home to a semi-clean slate. I'm thinking of trying to get back into Habitica: anyone have an active Habitica group that wants a 100+ level player with lots of gems to share and absolutely no judging of other people's progress? I seem to only be able to keep it up when there are people who will notice when I don't.
I was at skip=600 for DW when I got back on this morning! It's a pretty great feeling. And now I have ~100 open tabs to go through. :D Maybe I will try to actually save best ones and do a linkspam for once - I will never be a person who linkspams on the regular, but it might be cool to have a record of the kind of things I read via DW. And it's been a very long time since I've had a skip=600 to work with.
I brought the watercolors (and masking fluid, which I'd never used before) along with the idea that I'd paint and send postcards to people: I painted three and sent two; I have 12 blank postcards left in the pack, and lots of sketches of planned things to paint, so we'll see if I do them.
Here is the best one I did, a loblolly pine near the chicken yard (I really love loblolly pine. They are probably my favorite kind of tree to look at. Although I forgot to put in pinecones on this one, so it looks wrong - if I get my paints back out before I get around to sending it, I will add pinecones.)

Now I need to figure out a plan for my next vacation so I'll have something to look forward to when I really really need something to look forward to...
