[Both a housekeeping and odds and ends post]

First of all some blog housekeeping:

Hannibal posts will be Friday, after the ratings are posted.

Cruise Critic posts may be on a break for a while as things have really calmed down(apart from some minor dress code threads..This week's Cruise Critic post is an omnibus and is more than a little all over the place.

Now, to the odds and ends:

*Remember how I said that the pet store at the mall closed?well, it didn't. It just reopened with another name.SMH here.Well, it doesn't smell that bad anymore..maybe one of the conditions of their reopening is that they cleaned the place up,IDK.

*Only two more episodes of Orphan Black left. It's one of the things that has been keeping me sane whilst I was waiting for S3 of Hannibal.

*Finally finished Jonathan Strange And Mr. Norrell(side note:there is going to be a mini series of Jonathan Strange starting next Saturday on BBCAmerica. I finished the book just in time then!).It was the kind of book I really didn't want to finish(and unusually for me it took a month-and that's with me taking it everywhere I go,too!
