Temeraire-induced, pre-weekend frustration, plus a few bits and bobs

This is just a quick, frustrated, rage-against-the-machine post. I've been working almost non-stop all week, and I've been really looking forward to the weekend, as I seriously need some R&R. But said weekend has filled up rather quickly, and now it's looking like it's going to consist of eating, too little sleep, and studying, with study breaks consisting of walking to & from the library and furtive visits to LJ.

( What I want to do this weekend vs. what I will be doing this weekend... )

( The real kicker here is, like I said, CoG is out early! )

( While doing various character memes, I couldn't help but notice that... )

( Finally, you all deserve to see this, which made me smile, even in the face of the upcoming Weekend from Hell... )
