Wow. What a difference light bulbs make. I replaced my crappy, free 60 watt bulbs and crappy, cheap IKEA energy-saving bulbs for decent wattage, energy-saving, but not cheap bulbs and now my apartment is warm and cheery. It gave me the inspiration I needed to clean my desk and living room. I still have a few pockets of chaos, but I am no longer embarrassed at the thought of visitors or EMT's.
Except for my kitchen. I think that room has been taken over by aliens.
So, in the past two and a half weeks, I've:
-given cool stuff (www.theliteracysite.com rocks!)
-been given cool stuff (H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society's film adaptation of Call of Cthulhu, vol. 4 of MST3K, flashlights that look like phasers, a mini-Leatherman) I have cool family and friends.
-got my truck's oil changed
-bought, assembled (with help), and started using an elliptical trainer
-watched bad movies with good friends and good wine
-got a haircut
-ate bunches of good food (re: cool family and friends)
-spent way too much money, but enjoyed every second
My New Year's resolution is to balance my checking account and call my mom more often.
Happy 2006 to everyone!
