Busy, busy, busy
October 18th, 2006My intention, as of Saturday, was to spend the week unpacking and settling in. Saturday and Sunday were devoted, almost entirely, to unpacking and getting things somewhat sorted out.
And then life happened.
Monday, as I was wandering around the neighborhood, taking my leisurely time, my mother called to find out if I wanted to go with her and her partner to see The US vs. John Lennon. Knowing that I wasn’t going to find anyone else who wanted to go (at least not before it left the theater), I said yes and they immediately came to pick me up. In a few days I’ll have a review up on the Firing Range. I got home just in time for Heroes and went to bed.
Tuesday is my regular movie night with Princess, and has been for the past 3 or 4 years now. We do dinner and a movie (not necessarily in that order) and this week was no exception. I got home some time after 10, did a bit of light cleaning, took out the trash and went to bed. Early that morning, I got an email from my mother telling me that there are things wrong with her computer and can I come and fix it. I explained that I’m pretty booked up, but can look when I come to dinner on Thursday, but I need Wednesday to work on the apartment and try to make some progress. She said that if I would feel her, RC2 and the Child of Chaos, she and RC2 would help me to unpack… I’m sure CoC will "help", too, but whether or not she will actually be a help remains to be seen. (It’s unlikely, she’s not even 3 yet.)
So that leads into tonight when I have to cook a meal and still try to unpack. Thursday is dinner at Mom’s and fixing her computer. Friday is (probably) poker. As much as I really want to play, I won’t be heartbroken if the game gets cancelled… Saturday is another movie, Spawn and I are joining Princess to see the Prestige.
So I’m *in* the apartment, but I can’t seem to get the time to really settle in. I guess that’s ok, though, I’d rather be social and busy than bored and stuck in the house… that tower of books will wait for me. I’d just really like to get to the decorating part of things…
Omg you’ve found an apartment??? Ha ha! Kidding (badly).
Sounds like you’re having a ton of fun with people you love. Good for you! The tower of books is sooooo jealous.

The tower of books is going to *fall down* if I don’t get the shelves set up and the books out of the boxes onto said shelves.
It’s starting to sway. I’m a little worried it’s going to bonk someone on the head. Probably me

I think many people would agree that a good bonk in the head is a good thing… No, no, wait. They were talking about a good, hard bonk.
