locker_monster- Office move is half done! We all packed up today so the movers could move everything over the weekend. I'm dead tired now and probably covered with dust. Had a few lame surprises along the way, like leftover files from a project that wasn't ours and seeing a incredible pile of discarded office supplies be carelessly dumped in a spare cubicle. It pisses me off. It's not hard to return the items you don't want or need anymore to the mail room. Now some poor soul is going to have to clean out that messy cubicle before someone can move into it.
- And then on Monday, we have to unpack everything. Here's hoping they don't uproot us again. I'm getting too old for this stuff. :-P
- A moment from last night's Arrow just made me giggle. Naturally, someone made a .gif:
Boxing glove arrow! This show may be super serious, but it's always nice when they embrace the sillier side of the comics. However, this does not top the coda for The Flash this week, which properly introduced Gorilla Grodd. A talking gorilla with mental powers! They better have an episode with Grodd, is all I'm saying. You can't introduce one of Flash's greatest super villains and not plan to use him in a future episode.
- With Doctor Who over for the season, I decided to check out the Twelfth Doctor novels. The first one I looked at, "Silhouette", is... I wouldn't say bad, but the characterization of Twelve doesn't seem right to me. It's no fault of the author really. The first few books for a new Doctor are always a little awkward since they're written well before we see the new Doctor on the screen. All the author has for reference are the first few scripts and those are just words. They don't get to see the actor in action. So I'm willing to work my way through the book, but it kind of feels like I'm reading a story that would better suit Eleven.
- Gosh, I'm ready for bed. Thank god it's a day off tomorrow.
