3 Things

[stormkeeper_lovedoris]

 
1. Five days in a row off started today! Yay!

2. I had a nice moment today. Since my day was pretty open, I decided to take the train to first go to a restaurant I like and then get Doris a birthday gift. It was so cold though! And I had to wait 14 minutes for the train. But when I got to Munch (the restaurant), it was so nice. The place was so warm and cozy, and they brought me hot tea right away.

3. In keeping with the holiday weekend, I'll mention I'm grateful for my family.

And now, two less-than-awesome things but I found the first one bemusing.

A. I logged into the email account which I use almost exclusively to receive feedback on fanfics. My heart leapt when I saw I had 8 new emails. I rarely have that many! My heart leapt again when I saw they were all from fanfiction.net, so they were all reviews/favorites/followings of fanfics. And then...my heart sank just a bit when I saw they were for 2 fics that I wrote no less than 13 years ago. For a fandom I'm not in any more. I'm always happy to get a review or feedback or a kudo, but you gotta laugh because any writer wants them for stuff in their current fandom, not stuff from 5 fandoms ago. :)

B. Also, Doris went to help her mom today and her mom insisted she get there early. And...she did a lot of sitting around and waiting. I wish Doris would push back on her a bit because I was basically bereft of Doris all day. Ah, families.
