Stuff and other stuff

I had another of those weekends where it all got away from me somewhat. Saturday morning there was a ton of running around doing errands. This included getting Mum and I getting our library cards linked so that she can pick up books for me even if I've forgotten to give her my card.
This may seem pointless when she's going back to England in less that three weeks but we'll forget to do it until this point next year as well if we don't do it now. All this was inspired by her inability pick up Civil War: Avengers for me due to the card problem.
Yes, I'm reading all the Civil War books. Such a terrible idea but it did seem important. I've also got House of M stuff on order...
Anyway, we got home and by the time I'd finished eating lunch it was time for a migraine. Ugh. So my Saturday afternoon/evening consisted of curling up in my recliner with the cats, a book and the TV remote pretending that I wasn't really napping.
Sunday was my usual epic Skype session with all the friends and family in England. Before that, though, there was a long church service followed by an even longer meeting to discuss a Christmas tea and bake sale that I'm helping with in a couple of weeks.
By yesterday evening I was so done with people and being social and really wanted another day off today just to recover from everything. But I was good and I came to work :-(
Still, next weekend is a holiday and my Friday off so I get a four-day weekend. Score!

I'll start writing up my thoughts as I go, if that's of interest. Some of those thoughts may be just "omg no flail", I'll warn you :-) I suspect that when I get to the stuff dealing with Captain America, Stark and the other Avengers there may just be a lot of vowel noises.
