1. Sooper Dooper Extra Important Poll.
[Poll #1173346]
(The 2 kdramas aren't actually here yet, but should be by the beginning of next week or so.)
2. The deal behind the 40 hours vacationtime at work has been discovered: We can't earn more than 22 days off throughout the year. Ok, fine, makes sense. But let us build it all up and then cut us off once we reach that point, don't just cut us off at one week. And...ok, really, no, the 22 days may make sense, but the 1 week in that context doesn't.
3. Twilight snark. It's something else. And...wow...I hadn't heard about some of those plot points before...
4. Anyone else ever get in a state where you only want to read one type of fiction and fear burnout, but can't focus on anything else, no matter how good it is? (In this case, I think someone mentioned wanting to read medieval-lite fantasy that wasn't part of a huge, sprawling epic a couple weeks ago, and then I spent the weekend trying to think of some and then there was the paycheck FUBAR and my brain got trapped there. Or something.)
ETA: Does anyone else get their manga scans from mangatraders? Is it down for everyone else? I want my Bleach and D.Gray-man chapters. (Yeah, onemanga probably has them and I can read them there at work, but...)
