tiny violins

On second thought, I decided to take the day off. I looked at how many vacation days I have left, and realized that, unless I take almost every Monday off between now and the end of the year, I'll be losing some of those days, even after I carry the maximum 40 hours over to 2014. So, what am I to do today? Most likely, I'll fold some laundry, take our four canines to get a nail trim, water some of our flower beds, read my backlog of "Abe Sapien" and of "Hellboy in Hell", watch more episodes of "Doctor Who"... Do I hear tiny violins?

2-parters

I just finished watching "Doctor Who" 2-parter "The Hungry Earth"/"Cold Blood". Is it just me, or do the Doctor's multi-part stories tend not to need to be so? Please note that I'm not referring to stories that are part of a greater ark.

because of the crazy girl-dog

My day-off so far... I finished going thru my comic-book backlog, folded laundry, took our terrier terror and our tripod for a walk, watered a few flower pots, and watched a couple of "Doctor Who" episodes. I didn't take our four canines in for a nail trim though. The owner of that pet-grooming service isn't in on Mondays and she's the only person there who can make crazy girl-dog Freya understand that biting is not acceptable.
