WEEKEND!

Aug 31, 2007 09:06

Zomg squee. It's almost the weekend. That makes me shiney happy. I'm really hyper right now for no real known reason, but oh well, right? I really shouldn't have much energy, since I didn't sleep well last night. Let's do a rundown of last night, shall we?

I get off work. I call Joel, who still hasn't found the ears, collar, and cuffs for the catgirl costume I'm trying to sell. I get panicky. I want to calm down, and thus I decide that we will have Chinese for dinner, because we have both been craving it, and I need a break. I go home, and we leave again to have Chinese. When we return home, I go on the computer briefly, and then we scour the garage for the offending costume pieces. I finally find them--at least half an hour in the heat of the garage later--in a box that Joel didn't bother to check because it had stuffed animals and such that I had set aside as "for sale". Yea. Go figure. Costume pieces for sale in the for sale box--but I'd never decided to sell the costume before the move! Well, I rejoiced, and called the potential buyer to give her sizing information to see if she still wanted. Cue a 10 minute phone conversation with a complete stranger about how her friend missed her connecting flight and she wasn't in Atlanta yet, and that she was hours away, waiting for her friend's flight to land, and how happy she was to be getting the costume, and on and on. She's a really nice lady with a southern drawl that makes me want to say Tennessee, and I think I might be right, as she said she was from somewhere like that. ANYWAY. So I'm selling the catgirl. WOOHOO! Of course, it is past 9:15 and Joel is trying to usher an unwilling me to bed. I lay down, he goes back downstairs to do whatever it is he does, and I just stare at the back of my eyelids. And think. Thinking is bad, mmkay? I start thinking about how much money we'll have to spend after buying our tickets, thanks to our friends who donated for us to go to the convention. I think about how I already transferred the funds from paypal to the bank account. I think about what bills might be hitting the bank account during the convention. I think about the fact that it's the first of the month this weekend, and that the house payment is due on the first. I panic. The first. $910 will be coming out of the bank account in a day. IS THE MONEY THERE?!? I don't know. I haven't checked the bank recently. I didn't know what we had in there. What if the money wasn't there? The pay schedule is wonky, and I don't get paid for another week... You get the point... Needless to say I didn't sleep well.

FYI, I checked the bank this morning, and we have enough for the bills to hit, and the day at the convention paid for by friends. So don't worry, although I really do need to find some way for Joel to get a job. ::kicks potential employers that just won't hire him for some stupid reason::

So this morning I get in to work, check the bank, am relieved, and thus have a hyper attack of doom. SO HYPER!

Someone sent me an email from photobucket with a link to this anime opening that had the following text: "I believe THIS is the Mosquiton series you kept telling me about." If you sent me this video, please step forward, as I don't know who sent it and there was no name! Yes, that is likely the series I referred you to, as it's the MoM that I adore so verily much. But I don't know who you are, or why I referred you to that particular series, and I'm terribly curious!

Hmmm, what else to add? Oh, I saw a billboard that caught my eye this morning, and it amused the heck out of me. WWW.AtlantaListens.Com Basically it had a picture of the newest Harry Potter novel, and said to make your daily commute more magical. It's some book on tape publisher or other, but I thought it was an amazing sales tactic. And I totally want HP on tape, now that I've heard a bit of book seven (not enough to really give any spoilers, imho). The voices sound fun. XD

Let's see... what else...

I have no clue. I'm very "asdjakl;dfjlakdmalkj" right now, because I'm just wired. And I'm not even conning today! Okay, I am. A little. Helping someone style a wig in their hotel room, meeting with soronuume briefly, and meeting with aforementioned catgirl purchaser. Still, that isn't much... and even if I'm wearing my Lemming costume, it's only to amuse my cowokers. XD

PS: WHAT? My Jar of Dirt icon is dead? I disbelieve! ::sob:: Ah, there we go, it works now... sorta. Wierd.
