Mildly pathetic, but true.

Sometimes, how my day goes is almost wholly determined by what SciFi is running in the morning. Trufax.
Today was Special Unit 2 Day. I have a kind of embarrassing amount of affection for SU2; it's not genius or anything, but it's cheesy fun, with a partner dynamic that I really adore. Nick is flirty and a smartass, but possessed of Issues; Kate is practical and also a smartass, and possessed of lots of weapons training. They're friends and partners first - that is the relationship that predominates over any kind of extended romantic tension, at least in all of the eps I've seen. Plus, they're both smoking hot. That doesn't hurt. :D Some things tend to be overplayed, and it can be pretty anvilicious - not to mention deeply scientifically inaccurate - but it's still pretty fun to watch.
So that was what I spent my morning on, pretty much. And then I went to work in the afternoon. It was pretty satisfying, all told; there were a lot of pricker bushes to pull up, and one of the things I like most about weeding is winning a good, long tug-of-war with a really impressive root system, so. I do need to take better gloves with me when I go tomorrow, because the ones I had were not quite as thorn-proof as I might have liked. But otherwise, I'm happy. And it was really nice only having to work for three hours.
And now, to write. I'm trying to work a little on some part of the HP AU every day. With any luck, I will manage to post at least part of it before I die of old age.
