Thor...

This evening I watched the 2011 movie Thor. Loved it again. Loved it enough to go looking for online Thor/Loki slash after watching it. If anything, I enjoyed it more than I did the first time, when I didn't much like Natalie Portman as Jane Foster. This time, I liked her, and particularly liked Darcy. I see there are a bunch of Loki/Darcy shippers online. Well, why not?

I totally love Agent Coulson.

Ah, yes, bring on The Avengers. It will be fun to see Thor and Iron Man together.

The Christmas Tree...,

I have a tradition of putting up my Christmas decorations on the first Saturday in December. It's a day I look forward to; I put Christmas carols on the cd and play them while I decorate.

This year, I couldn't wait. After having listened to Christmas music in the car with maaseru for two days, I was ready. This I did today:

• Yoga.
  
  
• Breakfast with maaseru and Pim at Kettleman's on Carling at Woodroffe. Becuase the one on Bank is closed. I had coffee and half an apple turnover, while reading a thick flyer advertising businesses of Southeast Asian interest in the area, and we talked about real-life superheroes.
  
  
• Went to Canadian Tire, where I bought a pan to protect the bottom of my oven. What a thing. While looking at the Lysol and scrubbing brushes with Pim, she remarked sourly how looking at these products was a sign or being grown up. I denied it vehemently.
  
  
• Went to the pet store, where Pim bought toys for her hamster and I went and looked at the finches and budgies.
  
  
• Bought flaxseed oil, in the hopes it might make me less itchy. I made a resolve to drink much more; I'm parched all the time and my skin seems to be drying out.
  
  
• Back home, I scrubbed the bird cage, a job that was somewhat overdue.
  
  
• Purged and declutterred and organized my closets. Three bags for the Diabetes Association.
  
  
• Put up my Christmas tree. I realized, to my embarrassment, that when I put it in its box and took it down to my locker last year, I stored it upside down. Doesn't seem to have harmed it.
  
  
• Made supper: ham, rice, asparagus and green beans.
  
  
• What happened to the French homework I meant to do?
