A smidge of progress? (Still filled with haaaaaaaaaaaate though)
After nearly two weeks of blessed non-Sabrina-ness, she hath returned since a few days ago. And already I am being driven to heights of irritation from her conduct, and I guess there is also the residual annoyance of the state of things last week before cleaned them. The hairy and suspiciously be-liquided fridge, the grime-tastic state of the showers, you name it. And now the hair in the sink, and the presence what will no doubt be the usual scattering of what could be termed food rests and crumbs in the sink and surrounding areas, clogging up the drains. So I plucked up my reserves of indignation, and set to talk to her briefly about things.
And of course, all my cutting arguments, valid reasons and just pleas for sanitation became pale whispers and awkward stammerings when faced with her blank, unimpressed face. And of course, the bald-faced denial that I really should know how to deal with by now, but of course let go unchecked. How could she answer "what did you do to the fridge that caused it to look like that" with "well, I don't know what you're talking about. I clean it, too, and I must have overseen it, then." WELL DAMN, YOU "OVERSAW" STREAKS OF BROWN GOO? ENCRUSTED FAT OR WHATEVER THAT WAS HUGGING THE GRATES? YOU MUST BE BLIND, I GUESS THIS EXPLAINS EVERYTHING. So, all in all I guess that was another resounding failure in: Attempts to Negotiate with Slobs Part XIV-BILLIONTY, and I await what her next volley of filth will be. I saw that she has placed her own toothpaste on the counter, but still, mine remains ~*weirdly*~ moved from it's precise position every time I am in the bathroom after she's been in there. I think I need to hide my facewash or something, if this goes on. OH APATHY GOGGLES, PLEASE SWITCH ON AGAIN, I am feeling oddly all out of sorts because of this gaaaaaah I cannot have my own place too damn soon.
In other more pleasant news, am making slooooooow headway with the interview transcriptions, and hopefully will have them all done and at least a few pages of ACTUAL THESIS CONTENT by this Sunday! There is still time, I just have to remember that I finished my BAKK1 Thesis in basically two weeks and that managed to work out somehow (okay, that was also due to cheshire_tabby's mindblowing beta work mainly ♥). DEEP BREATHS.
Apparently I will also be out for a Girls Night Out with some friends of Wido tonight, we will be hitting up an Australian Pub, and I for one am intrigued. And already confused about how the best way for me to get home from that corner of town will be. UGH I HATE RUNNING AROUND TOWN ALONE AT NIGHT :///
Things that have been unbelievable in cheering me up and distracting me from my woes are the following YT clips, that I will be embedding behind the cut in all their glory.
...FACT: I NEED TO WATCH THIS MOVIE, pronto. Colin Firth, Matthew Goode, Lee Pace, Nicholas Hoult AND Julianne Moore (who looks ravishing in that 60s get-up)? COLIN FIRTH AND MATTHEW GOODE AS GAY LOVERS? Y Y Y Y, plz. And seriously, it looks gorgeously shot and I love how the trailer uniquely just omits the dialogue and has that ever so slightly creepy and unsettling score playing.
...watching certain Glee preview clips on repeat led me to check out some RL glee and acapella acts on YT and this one was one of my favorite finds. CARRY ON MY WAYWARD SON, HELLO. Supernatural has pretty much ingrained me to have this Pavlovian reaction of EEEEEE to this song, lol. I uh, would ignore the choreography, I guess, but it is really a lovely arrangement re: the music.
...I love their outfits, and this is also a pretty neat version of the Grizzly Bears song "Knife".
...The soloist of this group is insanely good, and I love how catchy this song is. Which made me look the original up, and ahahahaha it was PARAMORE?? Which I guess is kind of uncool to like, and I really do think that the visual appearance of that band is Trying Too Hard, but I cannot deny that their songs are super catchy to me ^^
ALSO I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT TOO MANY "QI" CLIPS BECAUSE STEPHEN FRY IS KING OF ALL THAT IS GOOD AND BRILLIANT AND I WILL NOT LOOK AT THEM AGAIN BECAUSE I WILL BECOME DISTRACTED AGAIN. Actually typing this post has been distracting enough, fuck better get back to transcribing. Will answers comments and such when I get back tonight, expect slightly tipsy bullshittery, IDK XDD
