Work and Rewards.

sechan19My Saturday was spent in cleaning up around the house, organizing materials, and chatting with some friends and family that I had been out of touch with recently. Consequently, I needed my Sunday to be kick-ass in terms of productivity.
I was up at nine to prep for hitting the coffee shop. (Working at home can be highly problematic, particularly if I really need to bust it out.) I reached the shop a little after 12:30 and proceeded to work for close to seven hours straight. Yeah, baby.
When I couldn't take it anymore, I packed up and treated myself to some kaki furai (battered, deep-fried oysters) at the local tonkatsu joint. The meal came with all-you-can eat miso, rice, and cabbage salad, so I dined well, taking time to make notes over a cup of after-dinner green tea.
It's little pleasures like these that keep us crazy folks going.
Recently, I've tentatively gotten back into reading X-Men. They finally brought Psylocke back from the dead - for real - and the recent Psylocke mini has favorably impressed me thus far. The writers have taken the characters in much darker directions (believable given everything they've seen and done over the years), but without the misogyny that generally makes Frank Miller books such a waste of time. So, I've got even more things with which to reward myself - provided that I'm a good girl. ;>
Starting tomorrow I'll have to run the weekly gauntlet of extra-curriculars, so how much time I actually devote to my newly re-found comic book habit remains to be seen.
