Blather, bullet-point style

*Got my hair cut. It was a very weird cut which required a certain amount of fixing when I got home - for the first time in twenty years (the last time ended in disaster) I took a scissors to my own hair. Just a little bit of snipping brought things under control though.
*Also got my hair colored. This was not part of the plan, but the fact that Supercuts does coloring for cheap convinced me. The color came out really nice, much better than the cut itself. No more gray, yay!
*Bought groceries. Now I just have to make myself actually do some cooking at some point today and I'll have food for the week.
*Listened to a very regrettable Penguins game. Three days off followed by a 2pm start meant the boys slept through the entire game. Montreal 3, Penguins 0
*Watched the first series of Hyperdrive, a ridiculous BBC space workplace comedy, that's just a bit addictive. It really is much like The Office, in space. I am, apparently, so hard up for entertaining scifi that I've become rather easy. The past few weeks it was Kyle XY, which I never watched when it was on. Despite painfully cliched and poorly conceived scripting and so-so acting, I became instantly hooked. I zoomed through all 43 episodes, went back and watched some of them a second time, and then started looking for fic. My first stop was ff.net and I immediately realized I would not be reading any Kyle XY fic. I couldn't even make it through the summaries, let alone try to read any of the actual stories. I suppose I could try my hand at writing some myself, but that would involve having some creative spark, which I currently don't. Blah.
*Nearly had a heart attack when a stink bug began flying around my bedroom. I was fine once I realized what it was, but those suckers are LOUD when they're zooming around. It sounded like someone was flying a remote control airplane inside my apartment.
