Gosh, my AIM list is nearly empty right now, like people can't be on in the days leading up to Christmas.....

Of course, most Stateside folks are asleep right now anyway, but I still usually have at least a dozen people on, and right now it's half that and has been shrinking every hour or so.

Fox only has the three most recent episodes of House (read: before the writer's strike postponed the other completed ones, I guess) on their fox on demand program, which isn't working for me right now anyway, so I guess I'll just be waiting for whatever sort of DVD they come out with. Likewise, NCIS isn't hooking me up, either.

They DID playe UHF on cable here last night! which somewhat surprised me. It was fabulous, though, since all my VHS tapes are in storage somewhere right now. A friend came over near the end (I was having a Princess Bride movie night with a few folks) and was equally surprised.

I'm in something of a state of boredom right now, and really recognizing how limiting it is not to have a car here and not to go many places by myself, especially when my potential companions aren't guaranteed to be much safer (and/or much more entertaining) than the risks (or entertainment) I could face by going alone. So I stay home most of the time, and although I love my place, and I have art supplies and books and all kinds of wonderful things I could do here, I don't get into them enough. It helped a lot when we had the door decorating contest at work and I got very crafty for that... though I may have inhaled a few too many glue fumes in the process. Anyway, I think I'll go break out some of my supplies now.
