Home Again, Home Again
Oct. 3rd, 2004 08:22 pmI'll be spending tonight at home. Don't get too shocked now, it has to happen sometimes.
After a day of cocooning and sex (more about NRE stage two below, but I'll warn you) I managed to make it home for six. I did a bit of housework, changed the girlies' cage (poor girlies, so neglected) and make some more progress on arranging my room. My room! :)
Placement of lamps is occurring, and soon two of the three beds will be useable (yes, there are three beds, two queens and a single/double/little one whatever it is in there). I did my first load of laundry here. The plants are finding space. I'll need to put up some shelves and do some picture stuff.
Mom got her boat moved the other day, so I now live in her neighborhood. It was a pretty cool move, because the engines on that boat are really messed up. One of them got stuck in reverse at one point, the other would barely give power-- and of course we only learn that partway out of the slip when we're crashing into the pier. I really admire mom, though, because she manages to get the boat, all in one piece, plus me and my brother and the Juggler and my brother's girlfriend all across and into the slip on the other side that we needed, without collisions, with tons of little pleasure boats around, without resorting to tugging it with the (new zodiac!) dinghy. And, she does it with a smile, admitting that she's terrified.
I have the best family ever, actually.
Juggler called me today to make dates for next week. It was quite amusing, because I'm not sure he's done that before. He took up two of my slots (heh) and two good ones. I realise that I'm kind of afraid of scheduling right now, given the fallout from the quad thing (everything fell apart when Mouse realised she couldn't spare Chris the two nights I wanted from him, I think).
I got to talk to Tillie briefly today, which was cool. It doesn't take long to sort of miss my friends, especially with this whole big thing happening around me. I'm hoping to get a hold of Ellen at some point, but I do know she's busy, so till I do I'll just miss her and hope no parents/bosses are getting her too upset.
I've been off Chia for awhile now, since I don't have internet on my own computer here yet. I miss people there too, it's funny how much sometimes. Events, I don't miss so much. My chars are fine without me. I miss the people, though.
I'm taking up napping in public parks recently. It feels very subversive: sleeping during the day + sleeping at all (nasty sinful indulgence!) _ using public space + being in a vulnerable position in a public space. Go me. It's cool.
I also need to unpack more. There are boxes of my neat stuff that I miss, like my japanese tea set. I have two-- heh, I think my dishes will colonise Chris' place pretty fast. He's all about shallow bowls and that sort of thing, where I'm a latte mug and huge bowl person.
Speaking of him...( Read more... )
Mmm. Make my bed, and sleep in it, now, after a bit of reading. T'care.
