Some answers

  Seems I finally found out why work is stalling on doing stuff for moving me to the east coast, they laid off some people involved in older legacy products this week. Clearing out people so that the company as a whole is more efficient. It seems they can't do that and move other people around at the same time, it is quite startling how slow parts of this company move compared to what I'm used to. Still it does give some hope that something should happen soon.

  On a totally unrelated note it is strange to hear GLaDOS in this trailer for Pacific Rim. It is the same voice actress using the same filter so it really throws me off hearing it as I expect it would anybody who has had some exposure to Portal. The film itself looks quite bizarre, some sort of western style Japanese monster movie with giant monsters and robots.

  In other weird film news we watched Dead Snow last night since it was free on amazon prime streaming. Slightly strange Norwegian horror film. It was classified as comedy but other than a couple of silly things towards the end with fighting the Nazi zombies it really wasn't that funny. A bit strange and went the usual route of killing everybody off that modern horror seems to go for. Also extremely slow in the beginning and being Norwegian a bit awkward with watching the subtitles.

  Finally on a busy work day lets do the Lego advent. This time a cool female minifig which came with an extra accessory so I have her holding two of it rather than just the one because that is cooler.
