How does time even work?

hilsTotally failed at updating over the weekend but I didn't do a huge amount. Saturday I had an 'I really can't be arsed' day and spent most of it playing video games. I did watch Pride and Prejudice and Zombies which although quite different from the book was still tons of fun.
Sunday I ventured forth for my traditional Sunday walk into town to write in my local coffee shop. It was actually really productive! I finished off the final extra scene I wanted to add and made a good dent into the editing of the rest. I've got about 20 pages left to do I think so I am hoping to be done by the end of this weekend. It was 15k when I started editing and it's now at 22k and I'm not done yet O.O
I also realised that I had yet to book my train tickets for the Hannibal convention which in my mind was still a couple of weeks away. Luckily I got a good deal on the tickets because I realised this morning that the con is actually next weekend. How has that happened?
I also went crayon shopping because I am an adult who needs crayons for my colouring book :-p
My artist friends suggested getting some Crayola pencils as well so who am I to ignore wise advice. And then when I went to pay they had some nice pens reduced to £1 and one of them was purple so I had to get one of course.
In the evening I watched the Sweden/Europe world cup game. Sweden lost but honestly I think the best team won. I don't know what was going on with Sweden but they didn't seem to have their head in the game. So the final is now Canada/Europe which I don't think anyone expected.
So, today I did a thing. A couple of weeks back I had this conversation on Twitter
Today I booked my flights. Yep, I am doing a US/Canada road trip in Jan with several hockey games including a couple of Pens games. This is the most insane thing I have done in a long time! But I'm excited though...

I haven't used the new version yet, I plan to get a pack soon, so I can't say for sure they're as awesome. But they have the added benefit of being able to blend them with water.
Here's a pic of the colour

I don't know how these links work and if you have to click it or if it shows up. Flickr has changed so much
