(no subject)
Spent all of today either sleeping, reading, or cleaning, and I feel much better (physically, AND as a person, heh) for it. YAY. I, god. Okay. I slept for a REALLY long time. As in. I have a new record for "latest time on my clock when I got up" ever, good god. And I bailed out early last night and went to bed at 1am, so... I guess I needed it? Or something? And I have rediscovered the floor of my room (omg, seriously, I feel SO much better) and also a bunch of the countertop space, so all I have to deal with still is the giant mess behind the bed/under the window (it's the catchall for wrapping paper/boxes/general stuff I hoard for reuse) and some of the cupboards, so... yes. Yay me. I bounced around organising things to Life on the Murder Scene which is kind of awesome for Getting Shit Done motivation and soundtrack (and I feel that the neighbours, who were basically having one long LOUD party from Christmas Eve right the way up to yesterday -- I only wish I was exaggerating -- totally deserved to hear MCR at acceptable volume all afternoon) and now am giving serious thought to going back to bed. Tomorrow I move out to the dog-sitting place, so I'm not sure how much I'll be around, but I will have my laptop so if I can steal wireless, or connect to their internet, or, you know, surgically attach myself to the Starbucks at Botany Downs then I will.
I've also spent the last day and a half pretty much trying to break in the shoes I got with my mum's exchange card thingy. It turned out to be awesome that I was so indecisive, because when I went in on Friday afternoon, all the shoes were on special. \o/ And, okay, so, you guys remember how you all encouraged me to get some flat shoes for a change, and many of you were very much in favour of the black ballet flats with skulls on them?
...yeah, so I went ahead and bought impractical two inch heels. But they're so CUTE. *something she has never said about shoes before* And they were 70% off the original price, so I also got some nice plain black almost-entirely-flat shoes. I WIN.
Admittedly, the heels seem to be breaking in more easily than the flat shoes, but I think that's just cos the left foot of the black shoes fits PERFECTLY (and I appear to have gone up a half size? w.t.f. Actually, these shoes are like two full sizes larger than I used to wear. Confusing!) and my right foot is just a bit too small which is, okay, OW, but I figure it will get better eventually? I'm not used to shoes which can dig into me. I wear boots! Heh.
I also finally got to the post office on Friday, and after some internal debate ("Is this a good idea? Probably not. Hrm. Oh well!") I opened both mrsronweasley's and brooklinegirl's (guess which I was more worried about opening in public. just guess. :D :D) cards and flailed happily in their general directions (thank you guys! my cards might get there before the end of January! *does not win*) and, AND, I got a parcel from 30toseoul. Much mail glee for me! Aaaaand. Yes. That is my weekend, so far.
Oh, wait, one last thing. From the cricket, on Wednesday.
Sadly, I was too slow and busy snickering like a twelve year old boy to photograph the REALLY obscene looking poses the physio guys did. But it sure was entertaining. :D Also, note how empty the stands behind are. Poor showing, Auckland!
