it's so big
Holy crap y'all, I was busy today...
I got up at 8 with cramps, and went to the store to buy cat food.
I picked out a new pair of glasses frames, and made an eye exam appointment. I will now have an alternate look - I will probably still wear my famous frames regularly... I've had them for seven years now, it's going to be weird to change... but let's see how it goes. It's like Clark Kent starting to wear contacts; what will it be like when people are actually looking at my face, and not my glasses?
I bought a bed! Mattress, box spring, frame, the lot. They delivered it within half an hour. It seems completely immense and seriously dominates the bedroom now, and not in the best way. I won't care when I'm sprawled out unconscious, without a metal frame digging through a couple of 1" futons into my back.
I bought a pair of shoes at the Value Village on an unsuccessful hunt for sheets that will actually fit the monstrosity. (I've named the bed - the J.K. Simmons Bootyrest.) Couldn't find any sheets, but found exactly the shoes I've been looking for for THREE YEARS. (Even longer than the time I've wanted to get a proper bed.)
I went to Yuki for sushi for dinner.
Almost all of this was made possible by the urgings and assistance of witwhitherwilt, so she actually deserves the kudos... and now I'm gonna watch me some Alias and go to bed early, in preparation for Ian and Shawna's wedding tomorrow morning.
And in case you're wondering, no, I haven't written anything in days, and yes, I do feel bad. But not too bad. More than anything I am seized with the moral horror of having spent THAT much money in one day. It's not as though I've never done it before, and more so - just not for a long, long time. But now I have a grownup bed. Gosh. College is truly behind me.
