Have spent most of the evening reading, drinking tea, and attempting not to spray the keyboard, thanks to svmadelyn's Bad Ficathon Challenge. It's hilarious, really. Shall go and read actual hardcopy novels soon. Finished one of Alessan's today, which leaves lots to go.

Worked today, but it was easy, and signed out about 2.30pm, and went shopping. Spent far too much, but I've ended with a Mills & Boon that's terribly angsty, has two or three sex scenes, and one of the main characters has chronic exhaustion (which is why I bought it); two new teas: red chai, and turkish apple; the Serenity comic issue 1, which means I now have all three; three more Marmalade Boy volumes; and a costume for the Rule Britannia LARP.

I went to the Costume Company first, since I have a WARGS card, and there's a 10% discount with that, but they didn't have anything in the way of Victorian evening wear, so I went down to the Costume Cave, and ended up with the second outfit I tried on. Didn't both trying on the other three or four that she got out, because the one I chose was just right.

And seriously, I look hot in it. ( Description )
