Dear Steven Moffat,

TO BE CONTINUED ON NOVEMBER 23RD? DAFUQ IS THAT? ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL US OVER HERE WITH THE EXCESSIVE DELAYS BETWEEN NEW THINGS? OH MY GOD. Can't even give us a season finale cliffhanger we can live with. Nooooooo. You have to twist the knife just that much, don't you? Jerk.

DOCTOR WHO
No Spoilers

Just watched the finale this evening (technically now yesterday). Longer post coming tomorrow when I have time to piece my brain back together, but I thought I should pop in and give you all a gif set to express what happened when I watched it.

I'll edit this post to include the link to tomorrow's spoilery discussion. Please be good until then <3

+Ned Barnhart pulled up a map of where the severe storms / tornadoes hit in the last day or so and it looks like some made close sweeps by my widely scattered fam (in two different states! dafuq?).

Here's hoping they missed most of you all. I can't do much over the internets right now except offer virtual hugs. Let me know if there's anything more substantial we can do.

New people! Come say hi. Go forth and bacon all over the comments. Frolic among my other, more familiar minions (and then possibly run away scared, but then at least you can say you tried it. lol).

What's everyone up to today? What about this weekend? Do you like chocolate? What is your favoritest crazy fandom on Tumblr? Is there something for me to eat around here because holy crap I'm hungry. #thiscommentbroughttoyoubyADD  

Tell me a little about yourselves. Nothing factual, obviously. I want to know what galaxies you've conquered and how many desserts you conjure out of magic for yourself on a daily basis. (What? I told you I was hungry.)

So, hi. How are you? :)

I'm very happy to see that things are working out for Kiera, and with any luck, her love for science won't be diminished by this experience.

Sarah Is Weird

It occurred to me last night after the name post I did that as of tomorrow I have 9 weeks (assuming new baby doesn't come early) to get everything done around the house. 9 weeks! OMG. Where did the time go?

This includes major projects such as dismantling the office cabinets and desk, stripping wallpaper, painting, and fixing a shower leak (which involves tearing out part of the wall to see where the stupid leak is because it's not obvious when you look in the shower)... on top of other general clean-out-and-organize projects I'd wanted to get done.

And it all has to be done mostly on weekends, because weekday involvement is spotty at best.

HALP.

MINIONS

Dis piktur, it expresses my feels.

But in case you want to read more, here are my full thoughts:

Composing a post from the Gmail window is funner. It has a bubble feel to it that I like a lot. Same with the notifications box.

My profile page? Kinda looks a little like Tumblr, which is not at all a bad thing. I has a lurve for it. (The massive profile picture is a different story... I mean, it was already huge, and now it's like o_O  Honestly Google, if that thing gets any bigger it's going to project itself right out of my computer and take over my wall.)

Downside to checking out new profile page display: I rediscovered the mac and cheese gif from last week and now I want mac n cheese. Never mind that I just ate. I want it. https://plus.google.com/u/0/101453162215777563254/posts/apqExonjQ4i

GOOD MORNING MY LITTLE PLUSBUGS

We are back from the Mother's Day weekend trip. There was much driving, which is why I disappeared for so long. Miss me? ;)

Crappy light-faded picture is crappy, but here is a quick selfie of me and the momma. Cute, no? I get all my silly from her. Also coming soon are baby belly pics with the sis (also preggers!), but since my phone was dead when they were taken I have to wait for someone to send them to me. Words cannot express how excited my mom was that both of her daughters came to see her on mother's day, and that both of us are pregnant at the same time. ^_^

SO, Plus, what did I miss over the weekend? I kind of skimmed my notifications, but I want the juicy stuff from you guys. What did all my little minions get up to the last few days?

Depression
I'm so glad to see that Hyperbole and a Half is writing again. The new post, up today, is particularly relatable, for me at least. 

...my experiences slowly flattened and blended together until it became obvious that there's a huge difference between not giving a fuck and not being able to give a fuck. Cognitively, you might know that different things are happening to you, but they don't feel very different...

...And that's the most frustrating thing about depression. It isn't always something you can fight back against with hope. It isn't even something — it's nothing. And you can't combat nothing. You can't fill it up. You can't cover it. It's just there, pulling the meaning out of everything. That being the case, all the hopeful, proactive solutions start to sound completely insane in contrast to the scopeof... more »

It's thunderstorming outside. I don't think I can articulate the thrill and mood boost I get whenever we get a proper thunderstorm with actual rain. (None of this sprinkling crap that people call "rain" out here.)

It's different when it's a thunderstorm vs. a simple rain storm. Rain by itself I'll take it or leave it, but I never fail to get excited over a thunderstorm. They're just awesome :)
