A few not-terribly-important things

☆ It's almost May. How is this possible?! I demand to know where April went. Furthermore, it was over 25C outside today. This is unacceptable.

☆ Also means I'm really going to need to step up with writing my fic for Nordipalooza fest. I like to have my submission finished in time to post at the beginning, right when submissions open, because for some reason people tend to be be very shy about going first, and won't post unless someone else does it. And it's a convenient way to make sure that everyone has an example to use as reference. Though, I predict that this year there will be a lot of email submissions, since this is the first year that I'm holding it on DW instead of LJ.

☆ Driving practice is going well! I've been doing it in bits and pieces, half an hour at a time. Parking is... challenging. But I think I'm starting to get the hang of it. Next step: Driving on major roads without getting nervous! (Hopefully)

☆ ... Half of the reason that this is even working is because I'm meticulously keeping track of how much time I spend on practice, and will reward myself with expensive fragrances when it's all over. On a related note, I hate how badly the Canadian dollar is doing right now. Haaaaaaate. It's... inconvenient for frivolous things. :'D

☆ I kind of want to see Age of Ultron. Just kind of. So many of my friends are into MCU and whatnot, so it's convenient to know what they're flailing over. Maybe I'll do it next week, on my off day. Though I will admit, I'm a little... disgruntled at the fact that the films that I actually want to see never come to this small town, and when they do they're usually shown in the evening, when I can't go see them. It's only the ones that I'm lukewarm about that I'm able to go see in cinema. :T How inconvenient!

☆ The one advantage of the months moving so quickly is that soon it'll be June, and I'll be able to go on my vacation in Victoria, BC. Think I'm going to need it, what with how things have been going at work lately. (read: VERY BUSY)

I have the same feelings about it being almost May.

I feel like I have accomplished nothing I wanted to accomplish in the last 4 months...and now...May. UGH

I am glad driving practice is going better! \o/ I hope your rewards are suitably rewarding. ... and also that you like Age of Ultron. I want to see it again, but I doubt I'll have time (unless it's still playing when I go home at the end of May, which it might be).
