So is it wrong of me to be just a LITTLE pleased that my parents are now being repaid for... well.
Last fall they moved upstairs into the bigger bedroom in the house. At first it was my room, and then my sister and I later shared this room for about five or six years before I moved back downstairs. She moved down into their room since it's smaller and she's in college most of the year. So really it just makes sense. BUT my mother now has some complaints about being up there, which were my complaints from first grade -- when we moved into this house.
FIRST, that every little noise downstairs drifts upstairs, so they have to close the door and that still doesn't help much. Given that I spent a lot of years laying awake at nine, ten, eleven o'clock listening to whatever it was they were watching on TV and not sleeping, I find it a little difficult to have sympathy.
SECOND, it's hot. It used to annoy my parents, but when I was in elementary/middle school I used to sleep downstairs on the couch, floor, in the recliner, wherever, just so I didn't have to sleep upstairs. Because regardless of the fact that we have central air conditioning, it just doesn't seem to get up there. When I got into high school they put their foot down and we started sleeping upstairs. And it was Hot.
So yeah. I feel a little vindictive for being like "I told you so" and it feels so, so good.
thinkatory and I are now rewatching S4 of Supernatural and we are discovering AWESOME things. Like last night, we watched 4x09 and 4x10, and while Ruby and Dean are arguing in the church when Alistair is coming in 4x09, Sam takes a flask from his jacket, drinks, and then the focus is back on him in time for us to see him replace it. AND THAT AIN'T CRANBERRY VODKA IN THAT FLASK, I would just bet you. Also, I just love 4x10. <3333 That climax is gorgeous. (Obviously, I did a huge old picspam of it. Speaking of which, picspammy needs a better challenge for next month, this one was just not inspiring. :\)
