Carnival time (NSFW)

It feels longer, but I've been aboard the HQ for 6 days now. I came in a week early, because I have a massive purchase pending.
        Although I was only home for a week, I came back in decent shape upstairs, ready to work, and at this point, with a month to go, I'm into a routine. The negative here is that it is utterly mundane, nothing exciting worth talking about.

  So, February being dreary in general, it's a good time to think warm colorful thoughts. It's Carnival season.
