Another drive-by.

by Adrien-Luc Sanders

My favorite LJ icon.  Which took way too long to make.Not updating today, kids. Sorry. I still adore you; you’re still my candy-coated 9-volt vibrators of love. (…wait, candy-coated, maybe that shouldn’t be…wouldn’t that cause…ew, nevermind.) You’re going to have to be patient with me until about March 10th or so; right now I’m working double-duty on crap for Old!Job and writing/editing for New!Job, along with this job and a few others. 60-70 hour work weeks are not fun and make for a pissy, snarly Adri. I will be updating every weekday from this point out, but I can’t promise it’ll be in the mornings as I’ll have to write when I have time and when I can think of something to say.

Right now, honestly, I can’t think of anything to say. I wanted to talk about the fact that a monument is finally being built to honor gays who suffered under the Nazi regime, and kept trying to work up a decent post…but I’m a little too scatterbrained trying to get my sh*t together for New!Job and work out how I’m going to handle this to even think of anything to say. We can count today as a day off…or even as a moment of silence for those honored for their suffering.

It’s well-deserved, anyway.

    Good luck with all that! Don’t drown yourself in coffee ; )

    Oooh! A monument! as good as this bit of news is…I think it could’ve been done a little earlier…Nevertheless, they’re being recognised which is a plus!

    Best of luck in your insane work week! Don’t die and remember: Everything is a lot funnier when you’re on coffee after midnight.

    …..Or at least for me it is

    Peace, love and chocolate chip cookie dough!

    Good luck with all the work!

    Good luck with the work, although I refuse to believe it can be as painful as the extent to which the social and economic developments from 1760 to 1914 resulted in improved living standards for the people of britain, which is my current task.
    The monument sounds cool, but slightly late. And it is Germany, yes.

  5. Anni Says:

    Wow, that’s a super-late monument.

    …incidentally, if you click on your Technorati tags and then click the “in all languages” and “of any authority” buttons, you get a page saying there are no blogs in any language of any authority tagged “isn’t this about Germany?” Thought you might want to know.

    It just took me a full three minutes to figure out what candy-coated love buzzers could cause.

    This clearly means I should go to sleep before I lose any more brain cells.
