days, days
Finished painting my living room this weekend, thus completing my first home improvement project. \o/ I got a lot of paint over the trim, which is kind of unfortunate, even though I honestly don't notice it. IDK, maybe I'll repaint the trim at some point? IDK.
The walls have been blue for so long that I don't remember the living room being any other way. I really like it. I think it needs a light-colored couch and some bright yellow armchairs, maybe. I will ponder this.
I got some new bedding for my giant bed. I remember railing against decorative pillows on beds last month, but it turns out that when you have a giant king bed, there's enough room for both you and a cat and all the pillows. I pushed the bed into a corner of the room and arranged the pillows in the corner, and sleeping now is really, really cozy. The next step is going to be painting the bedroom, and then I think I need more furniture for it, because the room is big and looks kind of bare even with the giant bed.
The disc drive of my PS3 has stopped reading discs; after watching a bunch of videos on youtube and taking the PS3 apart twice (feeling v. proud of myself), I ordered a replacement lens. Maybe I will have a working disc drive by the weekend. :O
BAZIK has a cold. He's sneezing all the time and I feel bad for him, but he also seems to be improving. I'm supposed to take him in for dental work and a heart evaluation, but I have already spent so much money at the vet in the last month that I really don't want to. Ugh.
I bought a really pretty bottle of bubble bath on Thursday night and have taken a couple of baths since then. Maxy likes to sit on the edge of the bathtub and look at me while I do this. Perv.
So overall it was a good weekend, aside from a couple of unfortunate things. I also almost finished Book Three of LotR and watched Fellowship of the Ring, so obviously I have about a million feelings about Middle-Earth right now and not much room for anything else. It's like it's 2004 all over again.
